The story Of how we BOUGHT these
wonderful suits is worthy Of an article
in Time Magazine.
Happened lost Thursday. Our mer-
chdndising and buying groups were
over in Baltimore to look at autumn
merchandise.
A renowned manufacturer Of quality
summer suits who had been ovefenthu-
sidstic to the extent Of q thousand suits
surplus, heard they were in Baltimore
and invited them to talk business.
Frankly, we weren't interested. Our
plans for the summer were all set.
But, when the very low price was
mentioned, our buyers began to visudl-
ize q surprise sale thdt would make the
men Of Washington buy heavily -.
dnd we ore in business to sell.
And that's how this event was born.

Application Blanks
 For Engineers Ready
Edwin J. Beug!er of Cheshire in Charge of Registra=
 ton-Local Man Member of State Board

June of this year, no engineer can practice in Connecticut unless be- fore January 1, 1886, he has regis tered with the state board. Mem- bers of the board are Professor Charles F. Scott of New Haven, chairman, Edward Beugler of Cheshire, secretary, Joseph w. Cone of Greenwich, Professor Charles R. Hoover of Middletown, and William K. Simpson of this city.
 Passage of the act was intended to promote the public health and safety by barring incompetent engi- neers from practice in the state. Thirty-four states now have regis tration laws, Connecticut being one of five to pass its law this year.
 The Connecticut law provides that: "No person shall practice the profession of engineering in any of its branches, including land survey ing, or use any title or description tending to convey the impression that he, is a professional engineer or land surveyor unless he shall have been duly registered or ex- empted under the provisions of this act" The board, with the approval of the attorney general, has fixed January l, 1886, as the date the act becomes effective.

Labor Party Idea Grows

You needn't take William Greens remarks against formation of an in- dependent labor party, voiced at At lantic City, as final.
 Relatively conservative labor lead- CTS all summer have been reporting growth of sentiment among their ran--s for labor political organiza- tion. Some of the demand, they say, comes from even such traditionally conservative areas as New England and Pennsylvania.
 Certain leaders, though believing a labor party both desirable and inevitable, have urged their follow CTS to soft-pedal the idea at this time, lest they make it easier. for republicans to defeat Roosevelt.
 'Ireen himself has indicated rec- ognition of the possibility that la- bor eventually may demand a party of it's own.

Peter Daugzvardis, Lithuanian consul to the United States, de- clared the league of nations appears to be partial in their dealings rela- tive to a nation or certain nations when they become involved in war fare, at a protest meeting of the Redemption of Vilnius Society Sat- urday night at St. Joseph's hall which was largely attended. The Lithuanian government representa- tives to this country told his au- dience the league should be more forceful in maintaining their treat ies with the worlds nations, other wise it will always be a failure.
 The speaker referred to the Lith- uania- Poland strife of IS years ago when vilnius, ancient capital of Lithuania was captured by Poland three days after an agreement was made that this would not happen. The city and its area, he said are now under Polish rule after having been under the Lithuanian govern ment for more than 600 years. Schools teaching Lithuanian lore were closed and Polish is now being taught. The people of that vicinity are in great difficulty meeting with the substituted requirements. He

True in June, July, and August this region of the nation is just much to be admired but right now her color scheme is at its glory. If you would follow the Foliage Trail which for years has reached from head Lake, you just leave the city streets for the open highway and the marvellous vistas that New England routes afford. .

WOOpa Uses Soft Pedal

The daily sheaf of WPA's an- nouncements of project allotments has become much more discreet. Frankly and unblushingly, the Hop- kins organization for weeks detailed it's most bizarre methods of making work for the white-colared unem- ployed and others. This brought many sarcastic comments in the Re- publican press.
 Now WPA doesn't do that any more except where construction or physical improvement is involved. Neither does it cover the amusing or unique phases of its work under the head of "boondoggling." It just charges the money up to "Commun- ity Project"
 The orders came fro mthe White House.

WAR. which brought on a short w age of metal and the hoarding i of coins. also caused the use Of stamps as legal tender. It was so in the United States during the Civil War. and it was more so In Europe. particularly France. Ger many and Austria. during the World War,
 Since the stamps would last a very short time if handled too of- ten. they were put into small metal containers and covered with mica, the backs of the containers carry. ing advertisements which repaid the cost. Above are the front and back of such stamp coin, current in Denmark shortly after the war. Tn that country, this was done more as commercial enterprise. by which the government could profit from such advertising, than from lack of coinage.
