.75O EXTRA CARS
 AWAITING RUSH
New Haven Road Antici. pates Big Holiday Week.
 end Patronage

The New Haven railroad is pre- pairing for Q rush of passenger travel over the Fourth of July holi- day, and announced today that t would use Q total of 7b0 additional cars to take care of the anticipated business over the three-day period from Friday to Sunday. The new lo| fares in coaches of two cents Q mile are expected to attract many who might otherwise use their cars for holiday trips. The total of 7Oo additional cars includes also 2bl coaches which will be used in special low.rate holiday excursion trains with fares even lower than the new two-cents mile rate.
 It was pointed out by railroad of- ficials that inasmuch as practically every bit of available equipment VIII be In use, that the number of ex- cursion tickets for sale will be re. stricted to the seating capacity of the equipment available for the ex- cursion service and therefore in or. der to avoid disappointment it will be necessary to purchase tickets in advance.
 Most of the special excursions will be one-day affairs run on Sunday, when there will be six out of New York destined to various New Eng. land points; eight from New Eng land cities to New York: and three from various cities to Boston. Sat-

SHORT LINE POSTS
 HOURLY SCHEDULE
City Benefits By More Ere. quent Trips to New York
 City; Lower Rates

The Short Line, Inc, Connecticut division, announced today through c. R. Bryan, manager, that through bus service between Waterbury and New York would be inaugurated today. This service will operate from i0o Grand street beginning T:46 Q. m. hourly to D:46 ?. m. inclusive, (ds.t). The buses will run on c limited stop schedule between Bridgeport and New York city. This is the first time Waterbury has been connected with New York by through transportation on an hour- ly basis. This March the Short Line instituted hourly service between Waterbury and New York. Now this service is improved in two important ways: First, no change of bus will be necessary be- tween Waterbury and New York; second, deluxe buses with more comfortable seats and greater ca- pacity will be used. The agents ct the Short Line bus center pointed out that this new service will great- ly facilitate travel between Water. bury and Port Chester, Rye, Manl- aroneck, Larchmont, New Rochelle, Pelham Manor and New York city. This will also provide visitors to points in the Naugatuck valley be tween Waterbury and Bridgeport with finer transportation facilities than have been enjoyed heretofore. The new low rates will remain ln effect and the ten-trip interstate communication rate has again been reduced offering c saving of 20 per cent over the new low one way fare.

DOPE UPSET BY
 OLD MR. BOSTON
Summer Months Witness Greater Call Than Ever
 for Popular Drinks

one of the biggest illusions of the llQuor industry s that they must expect Q lower consumption of their merchandIse in warm weather, the season of impatient thlrBts, This, de- splto tho weIl-known cooling effect of long, tail gin drinks. A notable exception to this fairly general rule is Ben Burk, Inc, of Boston, Mass, CllstillerS of the juBtiflably famous old MT. Boston line of liquors. They have launched . campaign of large- slEe advertisements in this and oth- or leading newspapers that # frank. Iy educational or, rather, informAs tive.
 Beginning with the most popular Of hoat-relieving drinks, the Tom Collins, which they show in step-by. step fashion exactly how to make. they point out Q neglected half of the summer time possibilities of long, tall, gin drinks .. those made with sloe gin. without ask- ing readers to depart from their favorite drinks, Ben Burk, Inc. makes the helpful suggestion that occasionally the favorite drinks bo made with old Mir. Boston Sloe uin instead of the better known and rightfully popular old MT. Boston Distilled Dry din. This happy Idea immediately doubles every mans list of liquid coolers. He can stick to "the same" and yet have on entirely different flavor end sen. sation the whey tang that emanates from the sloe berry, very soothing to heat-rasped throats.
 Again old MT. Boston picks news papers as the forum in which to broadcast this very helpful and equally interesting suggestion. Re. peatcd experience with the quick, energetic response of newspaper readers hes convinced Ben Burk, Inc. that when 0 product or it's use k news it belongs in c news paper. And the intriguing informa- ton they have packed into gener- ously large units of newspaper space is some of the best news Old Mir. Boston has ever put on the presses. We personally recommend following not only this advertising but the suggestions 1t makes.

Local Loan Association Is Pleased With Progress
 of Last Six Months

m announcing Q semi.annual dividend at the rate of ( per cent per annum, voted at 6 meeting last night directors of the First Federal Savings and Loan Association of waterbury stated they arc well pleased with tho progress oe the as- Boclatlon ln every phase Of It's aotlv. lty during its first six monthS period.
 Tho association, which ls Q local, mutual association, has been accept lng savings accounts and has been making Inorlage loans for the ptir- pose ok financing tho purchase or building Of homes in and around Waterbury. 10 date, loans Co thirty seven persoEs. amounting to ei27, 300 have been approved. In explaining the rapid growth of the association, Walter II. Deacon, president, point- cd out that the number of new say. lngs accounts which have been started is due partly to tho rate ot tho dividend which is paid and partly to tho fact that each account ls insured against loss up to eS,OoO by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. Investors today" said Mfr. Deacon, "are pri. marlly concerned with the safety of their funds and the addition ot this insurance to sound and con- servatlvo management has helped to make our savings plans attrac- tive" N
 Mir. Deacon further stated that all of the aasoctatlon's loans have been made on security oe home mortgages on the direct reduction plan. which permits tho home owner to repay hls loan gradually over Q period ok from i've to twenty years in cone venient monthly tnstallments which cover interest and 6 small amount of principal. "It is the belief Of our directors" said Mir. Deacon, "that the direct reduction loan is the sur~ est and safest way to dehe-free home ownership. The purpose of our as- sociatlon is to serve this community in the promotion of thrift and home ownership and funds invested VIII be used to encourage ownership or homes in our community, thus con- trlhuting to local prosperity and to building up our own city, Instead or going elsewhere to benefit other sec" tons"

Blaming the other fellow, how ever, doesn't help the immediate situation. What with panics, real and artificial calamity.howling real menaces, increased produc. ton costs through strikers dc. mands, tho force of circumstances is trying hard to monkey-fy Leor Blum.
