NEW. BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1916. | News for Her Side---and His How Cora and David Temple Solved Their By ZOE BECKLEY The Greater Battle Colony Park was in well-bred conflict with itself, the battle ground was Valley Tract, a pretty basin in a cup of shaggy hills with a little lake at the bottom. The issue was whether Mrs. Brett was to turn Valley Tract into formal, sumptuous, artificial sunken gardens and terraces or to make it the Swimming-Hole-in-the-Mountains which Cora proposed. Most engrossing of all was the general knowledge that behind th paign for the conversion of Valley Tract was a fight between two charmi capable women for supremacy. It gave the campaign the last touch of ex- citement to have Carter Brett, the head of Colony Park, on the side of Cora Temple and against his wife, while David Temple stood aligned with Brett and against his own wife. The park population found itsel? pathized with Cora, were eager partis sonal victory in winning David away from being monopolized by Mrs. Drett. The older element, to whom the touch of wilderness in their park and the swimming hole would mean nothirg, were with M 3rett not only for her Ttalian sunken garden but also in disapproval of Cora’s almost sensational throwing down of the gauntlet to Mrs. Brett. very one knew also that the woman whose idea would win as fo Val- ley Tract would be the more powerfu: factor in deciding the general tone of Colony Park as a whole. It was decided that the matter should be houscholders in Colony Park and the adult deciding meeting took place on the hillside Tract. When finally the vote was taken Cora had won! The gathering slowly dispersed with an outward appearance of having spent a pleasant but casual afternoon. But beneath the surface was tension. IFor the vounger element, fired by the victory of their ideas as to Valley Tract, now determined to push on andof Colony Park while it was still in the make their wishes felt in the building making. It was natural that they should look to Cora as their leader. Their elders, however, coupled Cora and her ideas with all'that was objectionably new and became uneasy lest the younger element, under her leadership, wrest from them the influence {o which they felt entitled. They decided to place themselves behind Mrs. Brott. As for Rose Brett, who took a short trip away from Colony Park on pre- text of studyving a neighboring fashionable resort, the defeat meant only the necessity for a stronger gathering of her forces. She was too wise a woman to show chagrin and too good a fighter to remain quiescent. The first intimation from her that the fight was renewed was a telogram from her from a neighboring city to her husband. “Come at once and bring David Temple with you. Most important fea- ture of this colony here must be seriously studied by the three of us. Am awaiting you impatiently. \ When, on the following day therefor, both David and Carter Brett left Colony Park for an indefinite st h Mrs. Brett, Cora felt as though her hard-won victory had been suddenly snatched out of her hand.

Both exhibitions have been known to the public for many years Lecause they typified all that was best in the line of frontier exhibitions. The fact that the combined shows will shortly exhibit in this city and that Buffalo Bill will be here in person will 1.0 doubt create very general interest. The new military the combined Buffala Bill (himself) and 101 Ranch shows offer this ason, is entitled “Preparedness,” and to judge from comments elsewhere the title is a very fitting one. The pur- pose of the display, it is announced, is not only to affard the patrons of the show a big and realistic military display, with all the color and thrills of so strenuous an entertainment, but also to arouse public interest in the enlargement of the army and in *pre- paredness” for defense in case of pos- sible attack. spectacle which All the soldlers utilized in the new Buffalo Bill-101 Ranch military spec- tacle, “Preparedness,” are, it is an- nounced, “loaned” by the United States war department, which has granted the men furloughs in ordér to participate in the display and to give it genuineness. The display has al- ready had a very marked effect in stimulating enlistments. Colonel Wil- liam F. Cody (Buffalo Bill) actively participates in the military maneu- ve. as well as in the battle between United States cavalrymen and a band of Indians led by the famous Sioux, Chief Iron Tail, which is a stirring feature of the exhibition. Tt is probable that no other indi- vidual in the United States, outside of Colonel William F. Cody (Buffalo Rill,) could have interested the gov- ernment to the extent of loaning sol- aters from the regular army for use tn a military spectacle, as has been done in the case of the Buffalo Bill- 101 Ranch shows. Colonel Cody, whase life and deeds are part of American history, was formerly chief | of scouts and has been intimately as- | sociated with the military heads of | the United States army for years.
