JUST ABOUT GARBAGE CANS

First let me congratulate the people Of Hardin for
the splendid response to 'Cledn-Up" campaign. Hardin
is cleaner today than at any time since have lived here.
By that | mean that yards have been raked and cleaned
and the rubbish burned.
There may be visitors here this summer from the
State Board Of Health and from New York City, who will
make q tour Of the alleys and investigate the sanitary
condition Of the city. The majority Of the citizens have
aided in the cleanup. but there ore some who ore like
the cows toll. olwoys behind. We hope these people
will be inspired to do their share and cooperate with
the board OF health.
A nice yard dnd garden increases the value OF pro-
perry dnd is an inducement TO visitors to wont to live
here and also tends to eliminate undesirable citizens.
The efforts on the part Of our city Officials to keep our
city clean ore useless without the cooperation Of the
residents.

At the present time these is q case Of this kind in the
city court. Pasteboard boxes and wooden barrels do

While health officer of Big Horn county. l observed
that many of those who attempted to defy the board Of
health, eventually found themselves in the district court

board Of health led to ID defiance Of state dnd federal laws:
Any person who fons to do his duty as q citizen ond
refuses to recognize the will Of the majority is mapping
his way to the penitenturY. l sincerely hope that no
citizen Of Hardin will be found guilty for failure to pro-
vide suitable garbage cans. thus making themselves
loble to q tine or jdll sentence.
You, MI. Citizen. may be proud OF your church and
lodge membership, but if you toll to provide proper

death which may ensue because OF your negligence:
CITIZENS OF HARDIN ARE HEREBY WARNED TO TAKE
NOTICE. If this responsibility towdrds your neighbor

LINCOLN STORES
FEATURE SERVICE
Every Auto Accessory Is
Available; Anti=Freeze
Solutions on Hand

AS the nation observes automo-
bile week and the thousands of new
cars are on parade, thought should
also turn to automobile accessories
and repair equipment without
which the shiny new models would
soon present a sorry spectacle.
Prepared, as it has been for the
past five years, the Lincoln Auto
Stores, 81 West Main street, offers
a complete variety of automobile
accessories for every emergency.
With the enlargement of floor space
making the store three times larger,
the Lincoln concern has added a
great variety of stock, including
electrical appliances, m &C h a n C S
tools, hardware, and plumbing sup
plies.
AS cold weather draws near, the
Lincoln store offers anti-freeze So
lutions OF every kind, and a variet'
of heating equipment at exceptiona
prices. All the stock of the concern
is nationally advertised.
Probably the best-equipped auto
mobile store in Waterbury. the Lin
coin firm is established in the heart
Of the city and is renowned for its
courteous andeefficient service. Ex-
pansion of the store to three times
its original size is a confirmation Of
the demand of its large clientele.

Demonstration Cars
Available For Free
Ride All This Week
Dealers Extend Cordial Invitation to All to Inspect
Latest Models in Respective Showrooms; New York
Show Opened in Blaze OF Glory Yesterday

showrooms Of local dealers viii be,
cars without clutches, directional
turning signals operated by a switch
on the steering wheel hub, reminder
safety signals, hi-test safety glass,
convenient wheel jack, side shifting
transmissions, dash operated hood
locks, heating -ventilatipg systems,
heavy dust generators and practical
cooling systems.
/ Many Waterburians were in attend
ance at the opening of the 40th an
nual Automobile Show at the Grand
Palace in New York city yesterday
and which viii continue until next
Sunday.
This, period, which is three weeks
earlier than in past years, includes
two Sundays; the opening and clos
ing days-an innovation. Also, a
major joint in the selection of the
date was the contribution it is ex-
pected to make to the sterilization
Of employment in the automobile in
dustry and its network of supplying
industries.
A point of interest this year is the
comparison of the automobile from
its cradle days to its present highly
modern form. There are numerous
historic exhibits at the show. The
show committee expects attendance
to be greatly augmented by out-of-
town visitors who intend seeing the
show and Worlds Fair simultane-
ously.
Special changes in production lines
in many of the factories were made
necessary in order that the new cars
could be shipped to this city in time
for the formal showing of them this
week.
Total value of the cars, together
with accessory displays and other
educational and entertaining exhib-
its, is placed at about $4,000.
The various display rooms of the
local merchants have been attrac-
lively decorated with colorful
streamers so that the new cars will
stand out against this background.
Free Rides
Demonstration cars will be avail
able at all display rooms so that
anyone who Is pleased with the APP
pearance of any particular model
may try out its riding and driving
qualities. The 1889 cars are radically
changed this year and great Interest
locally has been expressed in them.
Waterbury dealers are of the opin.
ion that their displays will draw 9
record breaking crowd from this 10.
cality' and nearby towns and cities.

designed in order to accommodate
the longer, wider, higher and more
massive bodies which adorn all three
lines this year. Moreover, the sheet
metal-which in the automotive in
dustry means tenders, hoods, and
the like-is completely new.
Viewed from any angle, the new
Chevrolet appears not only larger but
lower and hence more stable. This
greater stability, engineers point out,
is not only apparent but actual,
since new design in body and chas-
sis has lowered the center of grav-
ity. Design treatment, meanwhile
has intensified the impression OF
lowered mass.
As unusual combination Of low.
sweeping lines has been effected by
substantial increases in body length

The European war is none of our
business. Our business right now
may not be automobiles, but nine out
of ten of us, are deeply interested in
the 1910 models now on display in
each of the local dealers Showrooms.
Regardless of the course Of foreign
political fortunes, we still have to
make a living out of our respective
businesses for several years to come
because there is nothing in the war
to make any change in our daily &C
tivities for a long time, If ever.
As citizens, we have intense inter-
est in the European war now that
the World Series is over. Now our
attention must be conferred on the
new automobiles which will make
their appearance for the 1910 pros
.pective purchasers.

REAR WINDOW GLASS OF 1910
DODGE CARS is CURVED
AND TEMPERED

Taking advantage of recent i'm
provements in the manufacture OF
safety glass, the mixers of Dodge
automobiles have changed the de-
sign of their rear windows in their
1910 models with decided gains IN
vision and safety.
Besides being larger than formerly
the windows Of the newest Dodge
cars now feature single piece Of
special, heat-tempered safety glass.
The glass, moreover, is curved to
conform to the contour Of the back
panels of the bodies.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-10-16

improvements in Chevrolet's new
models for 1910 are more readily
apparent than those of any year in
the past. Emphasis on appearance
was so heavy, throughout the
months when these models were in
preparation, that, even In the minds
of Chevrolet engineers, the new
styling completely overshadows the
cars many mechanical refinements
several of which might rank as
major advances in any other year.
One of the first impressions pro-
duced by the new Chevrolet is that
Of massiveness and size. Overall
length is increased by 4 3-8 inches,
and the engine is moved forward,
making room for body which Is
larger both in length and width.
Those who suppose that re-styling
simply means dropping q new body
onto an existing chassis will be sur
prised to learn that practically every
unit of the Chevrolet car had to be
either relocated or entirely re-

Motorists when first learning to
drive an automobile should be given
some of their instruction in driving
at night. the American Medical aSso-
citation suggests.
The fatal motor accident rate at
night, on the basis of traffic is more
than three times the daylight rate.
A large fraction, nearly half, of all
the night motor vehicle accidents,
fatal and non-fatal can be traced to
poor visibility.
Night driving involves different

Economy Is As Economy Does

The coals of governmental economy are piling up around the gubernatorial door in the State Capitol. We hope that in the conflagration which seems almost des- tined to break out very soon, Gov. Ray mond E. Baldwin can make an escape that will permit him to continue to en- courage saving throughout every branch of the state government. We are defi- nitely in favor of economy for Connecti- cut. We think there may be many ways in which such economies can be affected. We don't say there are, for if we used the verb, fare" it would mean that we have knowledge, definite knowledge, of the ways in which economies can be brought about and we confess that we would hesitate to make any such recom- mendations.
 However, when we read that the State Board of Forests and Parks was allotted $250 for an item-neW land-and orig finally had requested $5OO,OOO for the same, we wonder if this is economy or something else. Of course the entire budget of this department was ruthlessly SlaShed, just as it has been year after year. It sought $2,014,0OO and the pro- posed budget now before the legislative finance committee allots it only $325, ,0OO. That means one of two things The toard originally padded it's estimates so that when cut was made it still would have ample funds for operation in the next biennium or the budget directors simply set a sum for this commission without regard for facts or figures.
 Another instance where one wonders about the manner in which the proposed budget was arrived at is the Veterans Home Commission which plans to open the institution now being built at Rocky Hill in 1940. According to Col. Raymond F. Gates, commandant, on funds set up in the proposed budget the new home could not be opened. And if more in- stances are required we might point out that the work of checking up and index ing the data obtained from headstones in old cemeteries in the state may cease for an item in the State Library budget has been thrown out. It was $2 ,08O for salary of the state military necrologist, Charles R. Hale.
 Economy should be our watchword and perhaps it should be done with a ruthless hand. But failure to have due regard for present-day services today may cost more in the long run than what we are proposing to save. The Legisla- ture should be convinced before approv- ing that all budget slashes have been made intelligently and not recklessly.

The First Salute

Interest in geography and American history is stimulated by the Presidents current vacation cruise. The other day, it is reported his ship, following fleet maneuvers near the Lesser Antilles, stopped at Oranjestad, capital of the Netherlands-owned island of St. Eustas- jus. Some of the kids in school may be able to locate those places, but most par ents will have to get out the atlas and brush up on their geography. Admiral Leahy of the Houston and other members of the party went on shore to convey the compliments of the President to the ad- ministrator of the island and to visit an ancient fort there. The visit had historical significance.
 It seems that an American boat anchored in the same harbor in Novem- Der, 1776. The captain went ashore and read the Declaration of Independence, then only four months old to the Dutch governor. The latter ordered a salute fired to honor the new flag of thirteen stripes. That, it is said was the first recognition of the new American nation by any foreign nation. It is pleasant to think that the Dutch governor never had to regret his action.

ent law practice customs. To the aver age layman there seemed, also, to be con- siderable merit in some of his sugges- tions.
 However, he should remember that the dual job-holding bill which has been made much of at this current legislative session hasn't yet been made into law and in way, there is similarity of pur- pose in this measure and those that Rep. Guastaferri sought to have established in the state. The one would prevent a legislator from holding job in another branch of the government, executive or judicial. Rep Guastaferri sought to set up code of rules whereby certain court officials would be restrained from private practice of law in their own courts.
 There were more angles to the Guasta ferri proposals, of course, than this, but in general sense this was the purpose, various courts and various officials being concerned. AS we understand it there was no effort made to prevent the private practice of law by judge or prosecutor, but there was an effort made to prevent such practice in the courts in which the official had jurisdiction. Off-hand and without knowledge of how this might offend professional courtesy we'd say the idea was sound. The Waterbury legisla- tor need only remain convinced that his proposals are right, so that he may per- severe in his fight.

THE BLUE WINDS (Seymour Gordden Link in the New York Times Sure and the madness is on me this morning, I can find no hat that will do for my head But must leave my hair fly wild in the roaring Of the blue winds that the trees rend. Oh . the blue winds that the trees rend

 Have shouted their crJ- aloud in my ears, I am full of their sadness, their lifting, their
 bluster,
 I am full of their shouting ad glee Full of their shouting and glee and their moan
 ing. can find no shirt that will do for my back But must bare my chest the winds are blowing The doom and the dreams of man. Doom and the dreams of man are blended To one in the awful look of me AS I rise nor know where am headed, Going with the windy keen. Going with the windy keen about me And keening myself in my lonely heart I can find no grave that will do for my body, But must bruise my head the stars. I must bruise my head on the stars this nightfall can find no song that will do for my soul. Why was given this cross and this trial That rise nor knowing go? Sure and the madness is on me this season, find no sleep that will do my eyes, And the bueness of wind is my only reason And any wind will make me rise.
