for grand officers of the state in Watertown Friday evening, by the Watertewn chapter, No. 96, Order of the Eastern Star.
 A memorial service was also held in memory of Frederic W. Horton past grand patron, O. E. S., who died while attending the Eastern Star convention, which was held in Wa terbury about a month ago.
 And what is the matter with the new bus system, now in operation between Waterbury and Waterville?
 The service which is being fur nished to the residents of the north end of Waterville is very nerve racking. The hourly schedule which is all they get, except at certain times of the day when extra busses are sent up to serve the Chase Metal Works, is extremely bad treatment Sales girls living in Waterville who work in downtown department stores which open at g 8. m. must take a bus which leaves the Chase Metal Works at SIP a. m. and thereby they arrive at their place of business at approximately S:3O o'clock, which causes them to waste exactly thirty minutes of which they consider valuable time. Tn these modern times such a waste is not efficiency in any degree. The next bus leaves Chase Metal Works at SIP a. m. which explains just one of the examples of the neglect the residents of Fort Hill and upper Thomaston avenue endure.
 And what ride a passenger now gets. After the bus makes its run from Waterbury to Waterville along Thomaston avenue and it reaches Homer street, instead of going di- rectly up Thomaston avenue, it starts travelling up and around so many hills in such a winding man. ner, person wonders just what it's all about. After ten minutes of this sightseeing cruise, the bus numbers back down to Thomaston avenue, and the passengers are taken along their way, completely exasperated.
 Another injustice of the new sys- tenn, was the changing of the pulp lished schedule over the week end, without notifying patrons, therefore all who waited Tuesday morning for the usual 8:18 bus just waited until 9:12, when the driver informed them that the previous schedule had been changed and the regular SIS bus had left at SIP o'clock, six min- utes earlier.

 Forty years ago, in June, 1897, Musler-Liesbeskind's was founded at its present site, and the area of its frontage was only 12 feet. This was doubled five years later due to the increase of business realized shortly after the establishment there. Sev- eral years later the store was again enlarged and one of the first eleva-

Two Assignments Made By State's Attorney
 for June 10

Assignment of two criminal cases for hearing in superior court on June 10 was made yesterday after noon at the opening of the JIns term by Judge Kenneth Wynne. It may materialize that only one of the cases will be tried, for States At torney Lawrence L. Lewis has inti- mated that he might move for Q nolle in the other.
 The nolle may be granted in the case of Fred Hyland, 2l, of Baldwin street. He is charged with automo- bile homicide. The oflcial coronera finding generates Hyland from criminal responsibility.
 The other case, which is sure to be tried June 10, is that of Anthony Barone, 31, of 89 Pleasant street, who is charged with statutory offense.
