in groups over the spacious

enormous honey locust tree,
was built a large platform with
lanterns around for dancing.

were placed for those who were

garden. The famous lockwood
arch leading down into the
garden was lighted with soft
blue lights, giving a heavenly
look to the whole place.

two hundred, were made up Of
many lovely young ladies and
distinguished men from Wash
ington. Many socially promi-
nent people of Virginia we're
there also. The music was
furnished by a German orches-
ira from Baltimore, and their
playing was marvellous. At one
o'clock a delicious supper was
served at small tables placed
about the house and lawn.
AS we sat around listening to
the music the gorgeous moon
rose up over the large trees
back of the garden. It made
a scene never to be forgotten.
Before the guests could tear
themselves away daylight was
appearing.

New Traffic Rules
 To Be Authorized
Police Board Believed Ready for Action at To=days
 SessiOn-New Bus Routes Cause Changes

Special traffic and parking ordi- nances for Exchange Place and the territory near the Green will be suggested at a meeting of the board of police commissioners at o'clock this afternoon. The traf- fife committee of the board has been making a study of changes which it believes necessary with the substitution of busses for troll leys on the East Main street and Cheshire lines of the Connecticut company. In addition, individual commissioners are believed to have suggestions prepared for the meeting relating to the prevention of further traffic congestion about the center of the city when the busses so into operation.
 Make Right Turns
 The board, it was reported this afternoon, would grant permission to the Connecticut company's East Main and Cheshire busses to make right hand turns in Exchange Place at any hour. Right hand turns are forbidden general traf- fic during rush hours and all traf- fic at those times must proceed di- rectly through Exchange Place.
 With the busses beginning oper-
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-08-01

ation on the two lines Sunday, the commissioners will also consider plans for making additional bus stop areas along West Main and East Main streets, on opposite sides of the center. Since several lines receive and discharge passen- gers in that general vicinity, it is promable that further bus stand space will be needed to prevent congestion of traffic.
 New Rule Effective
 A rule forbidding parking on the south side of West Main street, between Lewis street and South Main street, which was passed by the board at its meeting two weeks ago at the suggestion of Mayor Hayes, went into effect to-day, when the bus service on the two lines was originally scheduled to get underway.
 Some of the parking and traffic ordinances to be considered at this afternoons meeting are reported to be drastic in their nature. With the two new bus lines running, 1t is felt that such steps are necessary if traffic in the center Is to be kept from being unduly piled up.

BOOKS OF KING
 ON EXHIBITION
Unusual Crowds Drawn to Manuel's Collection
 in Paris

Paris (UP)-The celebrated li- brary assembled by the late King Manuel of Portugal now on exhibit here is drawing unusual crowds. It was inaugurated by President AL bert Lebrun and is said to be one of the finest Portuguese incuna- bula in the world.
 King Manuel died two years ago He was forced to abdicate his throne in 1910, and he then went to live near London at Fulwell park. Twickenham.
 The exhibition of these books and documents is of peculiar in- terest to France, in that Kang Manuers mother, Marie Amelie, was the daughter of the Comte de Paris. Upon the kings death his library was bequeathed to his country and has been painstaking- ly preserved by the Portuguese government.
 It was while he was residing in Britain that the late king assem- bled his literary treasures and con- tinued to add to it whenever pos sible. The collection numbers 120 books largely illustrated with wood engravings and dating from 1489 to 1859. It represents approxi- mateiy twenty years of collecting on the part of King Manuel. Among the priceless books con- tained in the exhibit Is the first book printed in Portuguese, the Life Of Christ" by Erie Bernardo de Alcobaca, the Perpetual AL manac" by Abraham Zacuto, which is said to have saved the life of Christopher Columbus, when he was attacked by the savages upon landing in America.
 Other important books in the ex- hibit include Rules of the Mill itary Order of Saint-Jacques in Portugal" "The Laws of King Manuel" "Cancioneiro Geral," a collection of poems containing the ancient legends of the country, "Antimoria," written in response to Praise of Folly" by Erasmus and printed by the monks of Santa Cruz in 1636
