Accepted Streets
 Only To Be Repaired
Stand Adopted at Works Board Meeting Last Night;
 Many Petitioners at Session Ask Relief

Permanent improvements on streets that have not been laid out and graded and formally accepted by the city of Waterbury will not be ordered henceforth. The board of works, at it's meeting last night took this definite stand, concurrinS with Mayor Frank Hayes who pre- sided and decided that the ruling was necessary. The mayor made the statement to several property owners who appeared to complain about storm water damage. In practically all cases temporary re- lief was ordered but nothing of a permanent nature was approved. James Coyle of Lexington ave- nue stated that storm water runs over his property. John Tarella headed a delegation from Vernon street and stated that the recent heavy rains had torn the street up badly. Another group from Pierpont Heights had similar complaint. Residents of Southwicll avenue complained of water in their cellars.
 Taxes the Same One of the petitioners stated, when the mayor said that only temporary relief would be given | to streets not laid out and ac- cepted, that he was paying taxes like everybody else.
 l "Yes you are," agreed Mayor
 Hayes, "but the people on accepted
 streets have paid a layout an6

 Shouldn't Maintain Steps
 That the city is making a mis- take in maintaining steps leading to railroad property, was the dec laration of Mayor Hayes to dele | ing that the wooden steps from Clematis avenue to Watertown avenue be removed and cement steps built in their place. How ever, he said, the wooden steps are in bad condition and added that he favored the proposed change. The engineering department was instructed to prepare plans for the new steps.
 Superintendent of Streets Thom- as J. Fleming was instructed to study the need of oiling Peach Or chard road. Residents told the board that since the opening of the golf course traffic has increased with much dust resulting.
 Sewer Hearing Asked
 It was voted to ask the alder men for permission to hold hear ing on sewer for Aurora street The Waterbury Rolling Mills is the petitioner.
 The Texas company asked for trees and lower the grade of the permission to cut down some sidewalk at the corner of Cherry and Walnut streets. Plans submit ted by the concern were referred to the mayor, city engineer and su- perintendent of streets with pow CT to act.
 Joseph Del Buonno of 423 Washington avenue complained of alleged excessive noise from a neighbours yard where the game of bocci is played. The mayor said that the works board had no au- thority to act. He promised to look into the matter personally. however.

LIQUOR DEALERS
 FILED RETURNS
Yesterday Was Closing Date-Tax Penalty Im-
 posed for Tardy Ones

The local office of the U. s. internal revenue department in the post office building was swamped yesterday as liquor dealers filed their special tax returns on the last day allowed by law. Those not paid by the close of business last night must pay an additional 25 per cent as penalty for late re- turns.
 Exact figures of the number and amount paid here cannot be gained as all reports are immediately forwarded to state headquarters at Hartford. In addition, many local wholesale and retail dealers make their settlements directly with the Hartford office by mail.
 The special tax levy affects wholesale and retail dealers in all coholic beverages, also breweries which must pay a S100 assessment
 Those appearin gto-day and sub sequently to pay the tax must ad vance an additional 25 per cent of their tax as penalty for late filing.

|LOCKJAW VICTIMS CONDITION GOOD
Hope Held for Complete Recovery From Dread
 Infection

Further improvement in the con dition of Fred Choquette, three and a half year old lockjaw vic tim, was reported today at the Waterbury hospital. Though still listed as being in dangerous con dition the boy has responded faV, orably to treatment for the dread malady and doctors hold hopes TOT his complete recovery.
 The youngster received the dis ease as the result of a cut he sui fered playing near his home in the Walnut Hill section of Thomaston two weeks ago. A week after the laceration, he was found to have the tetanus infection and was brought to the hospital here for treatment.
 Just previous to the lads ad- mittance to the hospital, Wood bury youth had died of lockjaw al the hospital. Doctors are still un- able to determine how the infec. tion developed, as the youth had no open cut on his body and failed to recall that he had suffered one in the last few months.

Green, White, and Orange Tri=COlOr to Be Seen in
 U. s. Ports Soon

Dublin (UP)-A newcomer to the galaxy of national ensigns flown by shipping on the high seas soon will make its appearance for the first time in American ports the green, white and orange tri- color of the Irish Free State.
 Americans long have been fla miliar with this colorful flag, the national emblem of Southern Ire land since 1922. During the 12 years, however, since the Free State ceased to be an integral part of Great Britain, Irish ships have continued to fly the British mer- chant marine flag, the Red Ensign, in accordance with a legal provi- sion of the Free State constitu tion.
 A bill shortly will be introduced in Dail Eireann declaring the green, white and orange tri-color to be the national colors and to be flown by all ships registered in the Irish Free State.
 Ireland still is represented in one of the quarterings of the British royal standard, King Georges per sonal flag, by gold harp on blue background. The reason for this is that the six counties of the northern section of the Emerald

Milk Is Important
 Article Of Diet
Care Must Be Taken During Summer Months in Keep-
 ing It Pure, Free From Bacteria

When the hot days of summer arrive and the zest for food is on t1fe ebb. one very sensibly turns to more simple foods. And one of these is milk. Already this habit has been acquired by many office workers as bottles of milk are appearing more frequently on the noon-day trays at cafeterias, and cereal and milk is becoming a fav- orite luncheon dish.
 The housewife too is building more of her menus around milk, using ice-cold milk drinks and sub stituting simple milk desserts for the heavier ones of winter practice. In many homes there has been an increased use of milk during these last winter months, as a re-budget- ing of the waning family income has made it necessary to select those foods which would bring the best health returns for the money spent.
 Keeping pace with this more extended use of milk are precau- tions for the production and dis tribution of safe milk throughout the state. To safeguard the public against the dangers of disease d. en milk Connecticutis rapidly in- creasing it's area of tuberculir- tested cattle, the pasteurization of milk (milk heated to 145 degrees F. and held within 3 degrees of that temperature for 30 minutes) is more widely practiced to free it from possible disease germs, milk handlers are under control by local health authorities and milk sold to the consumer is largely bottled and must be served in it's original container to individuals at restaur- ants and soda fountains.
 The consumer also has some re- sponsibility. Milk should be kept bottled and covered until used and at temperature of 50 degrees or less. Refrigerator temperature should be checked as at temper ature above 50 degrees bacteria de- velop very rapidly and frequently cause foods to spoil. Milk should not be left out in the sun after delivery but placed at once in the ice box where a low temperature is maintained.
 Before pouring milk from the bottle, the top and neck should be carefully wiped with clean cloth and then only as much milk as is needed at the time should be pour ed. Milk remaining in the pitcher after pouring. should not be re- turned to the bottle as it may affect the rest of the milk. Milk should always be covered in the refrigor' ator as it may absorb odors from

 15 Families Living There
 In recent months fifteen families have been residing in the spacious building, which was cut up into many apartments, It has also housed small church.
 Its history is replete with many outstanding educational incidents. Many socially prominent Water bury women were educated within the walls of the Grove street insti" tuition. The school itself was the outgrowth of the Waterbury School Association, so Dr Anderson tells us in lhis history of Waterbury. This society was formed in 1864 and one year later the land and homestead of Samuel Cooke on the present site at Cooke and Grove streets was bought and the building erected, classes being con- ducted in the autumn of 1865.

then. It opened under the new title in September, 1875.
 The late Miss Mary Hillard, later head of Westover School in Middle bury, became principal in 1891, and acted in that capacity until 1908 when she left to go to Vest over. Miss Hillard was a gradu- ate herself of St Margaret's School. Miss Hillard was succeeded by Miss Alberta c. Edell who is still principle of the new St Margarets School.
 Considerable Land
 In addition to the spacious school building there is consider able land extending well up Cooke street and back towards Prospect street on the northwest corner. While the school was conducted there it boasted two tennis courts and beautiful fruit orchard.
 At intervals there have been rumors that the school was to be sold and utilized for various pur- poses, but none has come true to date. RaZing of the old school building, while it will bring sor row to many former students, will no doubt considerably increase the land valuation of the site and make it more attractive to potential pur- chasers.

Bloomington, Ind (UP)-Con- elusive evidence that different sizes of advertising type faces have a definite psychological effect in de- noting tones was gathered in re- cent survey at Indiana University.
 Professor R. c. Davis inter- viewed scores of students and oth- CTS to learn just what effect, if any, type had on readers of advertis- ing.
 Concerned about frequent asser- tions that bold type expresses cheapness; italic. femininity. and 50 forth, Professor Smith put the theories to actual tests.
 The subjects were given sheets of paper on which were printed various sizes of type, varied as to boldness. condensation, use of Jital- ics and size.
 The subjects then described the psychological effect each type had on them, and they described whic!, type they thought best fitted for g highly advertised products.
 The tests also showed that type faces express feeling, the size ot the type determining the tone. It was found that bold ant heavy type carried the idea O. strength, confidence, snappy ap peal, dura bility and masculinity Thinner and less bolder type wa described as carrying thoughts 0 | courtesy, beauty, sex appeal, deli | cacy, and femininity.
