Sparmer Says Mars Rules With Iron Fist in Canada “See America First,” the slogan of tourists, now that red war forbids pleasure trips to Europe, is fully en- dorsed by William J. Sparmer, who has just returned from an 8,000 mile trans-continental trip as a delegate to the supreme convention of the For- esters of America at San Francisco. Mr., Sparmer was a member of the Connecticut grand court delegation which united with Massachusetts and Pennsylvania in chartering a special car for the journey. From Jersey City, four weeks ago, they set out and throughout the whole Journey, except for side trips, the car was their home. The route followed going and coming took them through some of the most important cities and towns in the United States and Can- ada, and in addition gave them a con- stant panorama of the most wonder- ful scenery in America, including such natural marvels as the Garden of the Gods, the Royal Gorge, Death Valley and the wonders of the Pa- cific slope. The westward Journey took them through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois to Chicago, where several hours were spent view- ing the sights of the “Windy City.” Thence the route. lay through Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and across the Mojave desert into southern California. Stops were al- lowed at all important cities and scenic points. 'These included trips to Colorado Springs, Pike’s Peak and the R At a Court of Probate holden at New Britain, within and for the Dis- trict of Berlin, in the County of Hart- ford and State of Connecticut, on the 9th day of September, A.

By order of the Court, MORTIMER H. CAMP, Clerk | were straw Royal Gorge. Mr. Sparmer is en- thusiastic over the marvelous scanery of Colorado. Owing to a washout on the railroad through the Royal Gorge, they were taken over the Mid- land road, known as the scenic route, but were compelled to return because of a wreck at the summit. The wash- out in the gorge was caused by a heavy storm in the mountains, and the next day the tourists watched railroad men vainly attempt to fill it with huge boulders. Stones weigh- ing 500 pounds were cast aside by the mountain torrent as though they hats- In climbing to the summit of Pike’s Peak huge snow- banks were encountered, the train passing through snow cuts twelve feet deep. Although he found the Golden West a wonderful country and the climate of California much to brag about, Mr. Sparmer says he saw nothing to make him feel ashamed of old New Eng- land. The fruit farms and vineyards of California produce tremendously, but the farmers can find no market for their product and are practically compelled to give it away. He found one farmer who had paid $4,000 for some fruit land five years ago, and was just harvesting his first crop of peaches. The trees were loaded with fruit, but nobody wanted it. A <om- mission man told him if he would dry the fruit, he would give him a cent and a half a pound for it. Eigh Halls in Single Bullding. The supreme convention was held in the Auditorium, a building built by the City of San Franciscvo for convention purposes. Its use is free for such purposes. Eight conven- tlon halls are ~ontained in the struc- ture, zone of which seats 25,000 peo- ple. The delegates spent a whole week in San Francisco, enjoying sight seeing, which included the great Panama Pacific exposition. While the expositions is wonderful, Mr. Sparmer thought it not sufficient in itself to pay for the journey- Leaving California, they journeyed northward through Oregon and Washington, visiting Portland and Seattle. Gen- erally speaking the homes in the west_do not compare with those of the East. The towns are far apart and many are iittle better than a collection of shacks, but owing -to cheap electricity every place is bright- ly lighted. From Seattle the party left by boat for Victoria and Van- couver in British Columbia. Mars Stalks in Canada Canada was a complete transitfon. Everywhere evidence that the coun- trip is at war was apparent The citles teemed with soldiers and everybody talked war. The Canadfans are in- tensely loyal and recruiting goes on unceasingly. The visitors were. how- ever, cordially received and -every- where treated with courtesy. Patriotism is strongly manifest and in one instance, the American party found that the Union Jack must be recognized. All the delegates were equipped with American flags and while sightseeing in a small town near Vancouver, they started a parade, the leader carrying a large American flag. At once they were stopped by a khaki- clad British soldier, wno politely told them that on parading with foreign colors could be permitted unless the Union Jack was also carried.

The return journey covered 3,000 miles of Canadian territory, through Alberta and Saskatchewan over the Canadian Pacific and gave them a splendid idea of the Canadian narth- west, but the war atmosphere was never absent. No body is compelled to enlist, but the Canadians have per- suasive ways. In some cases men are turned up at factorres with a curt note to the effect that Great Britain needs them more than their employ- ers. It frequently develops into a case of enlist or starve. Seven cars filled with recruits bound for an interior training camp were tourist train coming east and in the night near a tank station, Mr, Spar- | mer saw two men rush past the train and disappear in the brush. They were followed by guards, but man- aged to elude them. In the morning he learned that two of the recruits had suffered cold feet and took advan- tage of the stop to desert. American territory was again reached at Minnesota and from thence they journeyed to Chicago with staps at Minneapolis and St. Paul. The train drew into Jersey City just four weeks from the day of leaving, ABOUT 10,000 SCHOOL CHILDREN ENROLLED Public Schools 7,220, Board of Education Learns’ Alone Account for at Meeting Today. At the end of the first week of the school year 1915-16 this afternoon, 7,220 young people had enrolled in the public schools. The High school has the largest enrollment, 1,141, and the Grammar and Prevocatonal schools are a close second with 1,042.

President Davis of the athletic council of the® High school called a meeting of the four managers and six assistant managers of the various sports during the sixth periad ves- terday. The question of whether tennis should be supported by the council was discussed. Tennis in the past years has been a worthy sport. Last year's team made a very good showing. There is plenty of good material in the school and much | interest is shown. In the school tournament held last spring were twenty-four entries. Manager Malier estimates that he can run this vear’s team on $40 which is far less than the expense of any one of the other sports. In previous years the tennis expenses have been dependent on individual subscriptions. Presi- dent Davis favors the recognition of tennis by the council and promised to do all that he could to bring it abaut. The other matters which were dis- cussed were in regard to the new system of choosing managers. Any manager may call on an assitant manager to help, at any time with the various jobs which have to be done in connection with the managing of the different branches of athletics. attached to the ! there | A Call to the Patridt New Britain Some men think that pagriotism consists in jumping into a uniform when the country gets into trouble, That's all right as far ag it goes.
