USIGIANS’ UNION HAKES EXPLANATION laims It Had Planned to Give oldier Boys Big Send-0if Monday A special committee from the New Britain Musicians' union today made public an explanation of the reason | they did not turn out a week saturday and give their services gratis to the departing soldiers.. The committee claims that the union of- ficérs have been unjustly criticized and make the following statement: “The Musicians’ Union wishes make the following statement in re- ply to communication appearing in | the Herald last Thursday and Satur- | day evenings. We wish to make it slear before the public t the pres- ident and executive board did not have the power to grant any individ-. | ual band to give their services free for any function of whatsoever nature It may be. It must be done by a vote of the local, as the local is gov- | erned by an international law regard- ing such cases. The president and | executive board were formulating | plans for a large band to escort the | soldiers, representing the local union, and had been under the expectation that the soldiers were to leave on | Monday, and if they had the union | would have had a band of at least seventy-five men to escort them to the station. This would have been representing the union as whole, and not any individual organization. “The union and its president have been unjustly criticized in the mat- | ter, as the president and several of Its members had brothers leaving for | the frogt, and they surely had pat- | riotism fenough to want to give the boys the best send-off possible. “COMMITTEE FROM LOCAL 440, CANENOREN ‘CHURCH NEWS Following the custom of recent years, the churches of the city began their series of open-air meetings at | Walnut Hill park last evening at 6 | o'clock.

London, July 3.—Since the ning of tho war the cult of the single eyeglass has been spreading slowly but significantly—“monocles are be- coming fixed in the public eye,” as one newspaper says. There has never been a great demand for mon- ocles,” says a London optician, “but certainly we have sold more than usual during the last™few months, The fashion seems to have declined in the army and our chief'customers ars men just over military age. “Why do men wear monocles? TUn- doubtedly the gingle eyeglass confers distinction on the right sort of man, but scarcely ghe man in a thousand can sustain the distinction. “To wear a monocte succe man must be perfectly dr monocle and baggy trousers impossible combination. Probably one of the reasons why monocles are he- coming yopular with middle-aged men is the reluctance of the man of forty to be eclipsed by the glamor of uni- form. “Undoubtedly in the right sort of man the monocle conveys a subtle distinction of superiority. It either emphasizes or obscures personality; there is no middle way. an JUNE CAMP ENDS.
