The stores in South Norwalk, those
which banded together with a coma
anon purpose in view, that of closing
on Monday nights at 0:30 o'clock to
give their clerks the benefit of this
extra time from work, will reopen on
Monday nights, beginning next" week.
.The plan was a success.

The reason for resuming the regu-
lar hours Is the fact that the starting
01' the spring season begins with next

nveek. The local merchantsmxpect aI

{big spring trade and have been ‘busy
the past two months arranging stock
and getting ready for theibig display
of new goods.

1 One of the merchants seemed to
fleet quite favorable toward closing half
a day on some off afternoon, such as
(Thursday, during the warmer months.
{This plan has worked out successfully
{.in other cities and inspires the eni-
mloyees to greater endeavors for they
feel that they are working for appre-

lisw city Tax and wafer Bills
Due at the em Time

'1

Much dissatisfaction is being ex-
pressed by property owners of the
First District over the prospects which
will make it necessary for them tofpny
a considerable amount of money for
taxes coming due on the first of April.
The increased tax rate makes it a
hardship in‘itself. But: added to that
is the water tax which comes due on
May first. This veer the amount to
be paid is just double that of former
years as a result of the new rule
which the district commissioners unit.
into effebt, making the water rated.
unless by meter, payable in advance.
The past six months' water bill un-
der the present. system is due May
first and the new method of paying
in advance begins bu the same date
so there has to be paid a year's nor
too rate on. that date.

Rumors were about this morning to,
the effect that a petition is being cir-
culated ‘calling for a district meeting.
The reason of the petition, it is re-
ported, is to protest against the pol-
icy of the avatar commissioners in
charging the property owner $35 ”for
the work of laying lead pipe from a

t.

street maln 'to the curbing. 'llho citi-
zens who are protesting are doing so
because. they think that $35 is an ex-
cessive amount and also in view of
the fact that they have to pay the
cost of laying tihe pipe from the curb-
ling to the house. .

'I‘hat [price of 813548 changed for any
length of pipe under 30 feet. The
matter of paying the water bill may
also come up if the ipotitioners are
successful and. have a district meet-
ing. No doubt sonic Modest will .be

suggested today that the commission-
ere could suspend the rule and not

let.

Since 1882 the City National Bank

as there seems to be a seed field here,
that they will also have this depart-
