That brotherly love has no place in business is being evidenced by the suits of Martin and John Broff, two brothers, against their brother Stan. ley Broff, aggregating $700. Martin and John claim that their brother Stanley owes them money and in or- der to secure it they have been com- pelled to seek aid from the courts.

Hungerford represents the plain- tiffs and the writs are returnable be- fore the superior court on the first Tuesday in September.

He now claims damages $450. The other brother, Martin, has a similar complaint. He states that on January 2, 1911, he loaned Stanley $100, to be payable in monthly in- stallments of $25 each.

This cannon, or rifle as it may be correctly called, is of the type used on the revenue cutters.

QUALIFICATIONS OF SOLDIER, Commander Streeter Talks to High School Students. Frederick V. Streeter, commandsf of the Connecticut division of the Grand Army of the Republic, spokd to the High school pupils at 41 o'clock today. ¢ Mr. Streeter spoke in part as fols lows: B Mr. Principal, Instructors, Students . and Friends of the High School of New Britain: I am pleased to be with you agi ~—one years ago, as a representatly of the G. A. R. and Commander of Stanley Post, 1 addressed this high school. Today I address you, n only as commander of Stanley Posi but also as department commandet of the G- A, R. of Cofinecticut. Much has been said on the subject of reminiscences of the civil war. M subject is the soldier; the man whi acts. . The soldfer who atts, posses courage, promptness, faith, n obeys. The general must be fars sighted, cpol, forceful, with power (’ mass his army at a given point, wl a set time, for a set purpose. Suc trdits are rare. They command the admiration of the world. These qualé ifications together with the military promptness of the soldiers to act) gained for us the final victories of the civil war. ¢ So it Is with the lives of all. Wis« dom guides the' men and women who act. We grow apace in wisdom; not by heeding the warnings of timid friends, or the mutterings of rabid enemies, but by forgetting, and if néed be, defying the words' and habits of others; choosing to heed the inner voices.,and follow to the end, Progress marks the men and wos men who act. The artist of achieve- ment muay well choose the right frame of mind. But to create the picture, he must toll hard and long. The worst cases of faillure are the | areamers who scorn the busy life of the world, imagining themselves be- yond the need of exertion. A definite plan of action, and a determined exes cution of that plan, must underlie all permanent advancement. The whole aviation art and Industries was based on the unremitting efforts of two plain men—the Wright Brothems who kept trying while others merely talked. Schwab—the greatest mechanical genius of the steel trade, liked his work so much that he preferred it to play. Ask any captain of the world's progress what has brought him whers he is—and he will say “I did more than was expected of me." In the study of history, you are familiar with the detalls of batties fought, and victories won. 8o 1 shall not dwell on thut subject, But rath. er give to you the outline of formation of the Grand Army of the Republic, by the men who -unwd that great struggle.
