dow accessories in Worth's new window make them dashing pictures of smart seasonal styles.
 An innovation, the very first in Waterbury, Q novel invisible window -a window which until now mas been found only in the larger and more important cities, Is now pre- sented to the Waterl ury shopper. At first sight this window seems to be some trick of black magic, but upon close inspection 1t is found that the deep recesses and the glass itself Is of such design that 1t Is not discern- able at first glance. One feels as though they might walk right through 1t just like Alice through the Looking Glass. The basic fea- ture of this glass Is that 1t shows the models and their gowns to the very best advantage,
 "Our augmented staff will consist of about 200 persons" said Mir Greenberg. We have always made 1t . point to train ana develop local people here; and our department heads, as well as our clerks, are alI Waterbury youns men and women It is our hope that this staff will continue to give thu public the co,,r' teous treatment 1t has always re- ceived from Worth's which we wiSf to make the Store of Smiling Ser
 ce' in fact as well as in name"

NO CURTA AILMENT | HERE AS YETI
Local Motor Vehicle Office Wondering If Axe Will
 Fall Here

Without exception, the employees of the state motor vehicle depart ment are wondering where the far- reaching curtailment scythe of the merit system will be piled next. At the present time there are l3 clerks employed at the local oflce, under the supervision of Mrs. Alice Brad- ley.
 During the past couple of months about l20 employees including tenn porary and full-time have been re- leased by State Personnel Director Harry W. Marsh, for purely "finan- cial reasons"
 The latest curtailment affected 60 full time workers. mainly clerks at the Danbury, Willimantic and Norwalk district oftaces which were closed completely.
 Whether the curtailment measures are to be continued or have been concluded is c matter of question. but 1t has been rumored that the personnel director has intentions of reducing the district office staffs to the very lowest number possible.
 The first dismissal affected only temporary workers, and of the 60 let 60, two were from Waterbury. As yet no permanent workers ct the local branch have received notices of dismissal. The latest lay-offs will be effective September l.

 State Paving Streets
Paving Jobs Comprise Greatest Street Project in City's EiistOry-AIl Sewer Work to Be Finished
 First-ExChange Place Nearly Ready

Baldwin street, from Washington street to the Naugatuck road, and South Main street, from Washing. ton street to the Naugatuck town line. -ris hoped that the state will pave both these streets before the winter, The city plans to lay a new pavement on South Main street, from Washington street to the cen- ter, next year.
 Paving of Exchange Place will be finished this week, and the entire area will then be open to traffic, Work on the paving of the Willow- West Main-Meadow street intersec- ton began yesterday and will be completed as quickly as possible. This project includes the paving of the intersection proper, also the paving of Willow street to Mltchell avenue, and Meadow street as far as Freight street.
 Contractors are now at work on the paving of Willow street and Roseland avenue, joined as 0 single project, and on the paving of Con- gress avenue from Bank street to Bank street.
 Homer street, from Thomaston to Chase avenues, Is being paved by street department workers directed by Supt. Thomas J. Fleming.
 Plans for next year include the paving of the following ma!n streets: Bank street, North Main street, South Main street from Washington street to Exchange Place. and Watertown avenue.
 The state highway department will pave Baldwin street, from Washington street south, and South Main street, also from Washington street south.
 Work on the streets listed for paving next year cannot be done during the current year because ot the many new sewer connections that must be made and the great additional underground work that must be done before the streets are ready for paving.
 Meantime sewer work is being done in several sections of the city. notably Baldwin and South Main streets. Sanitary sewers are being installed on South Main street, from Piedmont street to Pearl Lake road. and new water main Is being laid on South Main street, from Washington street south to the Smith & origgS plant,

N. '. \. QUOTA IN CITY DROPS Reduced From 100 to 67; High School Students
 Aided

The N. Y. A. quota in Waterbury during the coming school year will be reduced from 100 to approximate | ly 67. 1t was learned today tollow- ing an announcement from N. Y. A. headquarters in Washington that reductions would come about as a result of a decrease in administra- tion funds.
 Inasmuch es there are no colleges in Waterbury ell students who re- ceived aid last year were from the Ave local high schools. The students were paid for Q certain number of hours worked each month. Tn order to qualify for assistance the stud- ents were taken from families on relief or from the border line" families. The nature of the N, Y. A. work in the schools Is light and has been described as scholastic chore" work.
 No official statement has been rec leased from the New Haven office but 1t is believed that the curtail- ment in Connecticut, as is usually the case, will follow along the lines suggested by the national office.

Miller Shoe department will be add. ed Q new line of Fashionette shoes, which, while less expensive than |. Miller, which Is exclusive with Worth's, has quality, chic. and com- fort.
 With the founding of It's infants department, Worth's B now pre- pared to cater to the woman of fashion from the moment the first smart bonnet b tied around her tiny face until the day she pur- chases her trousSeau, and still after when she begins to buy clothes for her own family.

His Busy Day.

His Busy Day.
My Uncle Jim's truthful man.
But now and then he acts
Like many folks and shows he can
Be supple with the facts:
Although he is friend of mine,
l feel vague dismay
Whenever he hangs up the sign,
This is my busy day."
When no one climbs the shaky stair
Up to the room so far,
Where he sits in tilted chair
A-smokin' a cigar;
He says, Its time some one should be
A-steppin round this way,
So hang it up where he may see
This is my busy day."
AN then fishin' trip will claim
His time the whole day long,
Or mebbe at base ball game
He'll lift his voice so strong;
And when of sport he's had enough,
He'll view the sign and say,
THAT notice isn't any bluff,
1t was busy day."
