WATER SERVICE. PLAN STUDIED
Government to Enter Con- tract With City in HOus-
 ing Project

The federal government is expect ed to send representatives to Wa terbury this week to seek an agree ment with city officials on water service for the defense housing pro- jectS on Long Hill road and Ham ilton avenue.
 Two proposals have been given the city for consideration One calls for the city to give a substantial discount to the government after the latter has installed mains and connections. The other calls for the city to install the mains and other piping and to charge the regular rate.
 Though no decision has been reached, city officials indicate that they favor the plan of letting the government do the expensive install lation work and then get discount on water rents.
 A special commission is now con- sidering a change in the water rent system for all consumers, which would eliminate the present flat rate of IS 1-2 cents per 100 cubic feet and establish 8 sliding scale, de- pending on the amount of water used. This would benefit factories and other large consumers.

Good Evening,
WYATT NO MORE COLD CUTS!

The holiday weekend well over Is let-down for the happy rover. The golfers bemoan their bad puts, The family finishes up all cold cuts It's freedom from outdoor broiled steaks, And home again from nearby lakes, An end of the salad potato, Slicing cucumber and tomato, With relief one stops slicing bread And cheeks up on the overhead From the many many rations - That accompany weekend vacations. One throws out the last pickle in the jar Remnants from an improVised bar. Dad gets sort of huffed
 When offered another olive stuffed, And the boys repeatedly beg To be excused from left over stuffed egg. The glory that was in promiscuous eating Is dissipated, and will not bear repeating Until some future time,
 For right now one wouldn't give dime Or make of himself hog Going to town on hot dog, And would proffer good sound clip To one offering another potato chip The holiday weekend is ended, Fun and lusty appetite blended. We are content, it Is my belief To settle down to plain roast beef

 The price of water buckets is advancing. One of our lads from the more rugged regions recently was confined for breaking up fur niture during a little spell of heat and heavy drinking. He awoke in jail and saw the bars between him and freedom. He yelled but mo- body came to release him. He found a water pail and slammed the pail and the water against those hateful bars. When he reached the court room to face charges, 'Darned if they didn't charge me thirty cents for that water bucket" he said. Our in- formant claims that better pails can be purchased in the five-and- ten. A really durable milk pail can be had at McCarthy's Store for two bits.

Present Play Season Called
Hangover Reoiews Enjoyed

Daniel L. Quirk, speaking on
the "Theater OF Today at the Janu-
airy meeting Of the Ypsilanti Chap
ter Daughters of the American Rev
olution, held in the Quirk home,
Friday, pointed out the effect Of the
war in Europe on the theater. and
said, Let US hope America has
the supreme blessing of peace and
the arts have free expression Let
us welcome the escape they bring
at least. they keep alive our sense
of beauty ana human dignity" He
spoke of play being a slice OF life
IN which the actors OF today speak
the language Of the class Of society
about which the play is written.
Plays are rapidly changing like
everything else. A play is judged by
the acting, the manuscripts. or gen
eral production. but whether one
likes play depends TO a large ex-
tent on the spectators mood, the
speaker said.
Mr.. Quirk declared the 1904
play season could be called a big
hangover because OF the large num-
Der OF outstanding plays that are
he'd over from last year.
Mr.. Quirk said he would see The
Corn Is Green" Cabin In the
Sky" and Boys and Girls Togeth-
er" If he were in New York. He con
siders Katherine Cornell the most
prominent actress, but she is not
appearing at present Mr. Quirk
