Did you ever stop to think of the difference between the plain ordinary variety of home, and the kind of a home that begins with a capital le-' ter?—the difference between the shel- ter provided for little children by their own parents, and the kind pro- vided for poor little tots by some- body else's parents? Sometimes, alas, there is all the difference in the world! Thie city has institutional homes for children and fortunately New Brt ain’s are of the right sort. Get quainted with some of the young- sters in the Children’s Home, which has just passed its 14th anniversary this week, and you will find none of the chaingang lockstep Indian file tua- tics that were the disgraceful chara ‘teristics of the older type of institu tion. Here you will find bright-faced in- dividual boys and girle, brimful of life and vim, dressed in a varied style. Time was when every ghl in an orphanage was supposed to wear blue check gingham—good in its way, but mighty monetonous. Those in charge of the Children’s Home feel that variety in color and material costs no more and is ten times more satis- factory, ‘With all the gardening and repair work going on, these are busy times at the five different houses. A flag- stone walk is being lald from Cam-. bridge street to the summit of Rack- liffe Heights; veranda improvements are under way at the Babies' Home on Arch street, and the extensive garden work ‘flourishes. Each of the one hundred and twenty children in the various Houses has his particular place in the scheme of things. Al]l the girls have special tasks to perform. They work in shifts at each’ of the houses doing the bed-making and cleaning and cooking by turns under the matron’s direction. It .is extra good fun to cook -at the Hart street house just now because a fine new range has recently been installed there. Two girls from the Hart stroet house appear bright and early each morning at the dairy on Rackliffe Heights, just as the boy's milking squad’ fiishes its labors, and they carry, hp the milk supply tor! their house. roups of boys also. arrive cach morhing to take the milk supply to tha Bables’ House. Other cidldren from the three other houses aie sent for the evening milk. Care of live stock nl‘uys appeals to children. The four cows are ex- tremely well cared for. After much thought, they have been christened Molly, Pansy, Betsy and Black Beauty ond these names are duly inscribed above each stall. There are two little calves at the barn just now, one ajl black and the other buff and white, named Topsy and Daisy, which are great pets with the children. A fair division of labor is made among the boys also. Some mow the lawns at the different houses, some milk the cows, other take care of the large poultry yard and still others run errands. This season one and all of them are enthusiastic gardeners.’ SOWED MINE FIELD FOR U. S. SQUADRON ‘Washington, May 26.—Admrial Sims’ report from London that Ger- many by some means learned that American destroyers were bound for European waters at least four days ‘before they reached Queenstown strengthened “today the government's determination to ‘search out spies and close channels of military !nforma- tion which apparently still exist be- tween the United States and Germany. That the Queenstown harbor en- trance was strewn by submarines with mines intended for the American ships was considered by officials as proof that the German information concern- ing the departure and destination of the boats was accurate. REV. MIUTON J. BIEBER HERE. Rev. Milton J. Bieber, D. D., the organizer several years ago of the Lutheran Church of the Reformation, this city visited here the past two days. He addressed the State Luther league convention at Rockville dur- ing the past week, and while here ad- dressed the local Luther league. He ‘was instrumental in establishing many mission churches in eastern United States and Canada. He was recently promoted: to -the superintendency of Lutheran Home Missions of the East- ern states. His many friends were pleased to greet him again. —_— The annual May festival of the Vega society will be held in Vega hall this evening.

New-¥; NEAR-SIDE STOP IN EFFECT HERE JUNE | Expected to Bliminate Many Ac- cidents and Inconvenience The Connecticut company is prepar- ing to adopt on Juneé 1 the near-side stop, so-called, in this city. This practice has been in effect - in New Haven ‘and Bridgeport with o.néln advantages, to, the users of ;the high- way and to the patrons as tollow- It reduces accidents and therefore increases public safety, A motorman anticipating the prob- ability of receiving a signal to stop at the next street will have his car under better control when approach- ing the cross street, s0 as not.to over- run and obstruct . the intersecting street and is therefore less lkely to collide with vehicles crossing the track, Passengers are sometimes thrown in cars by making the farside stop due to the motorman having to make a quick stop. to prevent . striking a pedestrian or vehicle coming from an intersecting street. ‘With the near-side stop passengers generally | alight from the front end of the car which eliminates accidents due to passing behind the car and ‘in front of an automobile or car pro- ceeding in the opposite direction on the other track. During the first twelve months the nearside stop was in effect in New York city the number of street car accidents decreased over seventeen per cent, as compared with the pre- vious twelve months. The near-side stop has been adopt- | ed in many cities among which are the following: New York, City, Philadelphia, Chelsea, Mass., Brooklyn, N. Y., Bas- ton, Pa., Toronto, Newark, N, J, Birmingham, Ala., Boston, Charles- ton, 8. C., Harrisburg, Pa., Baltimore, Detroit, Mich., Vancouver, B. C.,, New Haven, Conn., Chicago, Helena, Mont., ‘Washington, D. C. Several of these cities such as New York, Newark, Detroit and Philadel- phia have passed ordinances requiring the near-side stop. A referendum vote taken by the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company showed 181,000 passengers in favor of th Near-side stop and 17,000 passen- gers voted against adoption of the Near-side stop.
