VETOES SUNDAY BILL Govern Lake Disapproves nf What | He Calls Step Toward Commercial- | izing Sabbath, Hartford, May 11.—Governor Lake vesterday vetoed the Sunday obsery- ance law, returning the bill without his signature to the house of repre- sentatives late yesterday afternoon, on the ground that th proposed law ing the Sabbath. Governor Lake his veto declared that the bill, whic would permit the playing of profe sional baseball and football and cl unday afternoons, was character “one of the greatest aces to the stability of the na- tion.” He charged that the genera \ssembly had erred and that the ma- jority of the people of the state were opposed to the provisions of the meas- ure.

Great Britain’s standing in the big L.eague must depend largely on her standing with the miners. It appears that they wronged Greece who accused her of setting forth on a campaign of conquest. An optimist is one who thinks it might be worse: a pessimist is one who suspects that it will be. When a man says he feels like a two-year-old, he should explain whether he is thinking of a horse or a Jjitney. ’ The report of waste in the ordnance department is not surprising. In this glad spring season, many arms go to waist. Isn't it rather heartless to limit immigration to three per cent and then limit the immigrant to one half of one per cent? The chief difference between Ger- many and the Allies concerns the line of demarcation between can't and won't. P Ei Lights and Shadows ’ it By John J. Daly ) TALKING MOVIES DR The movies are talkies now, pearing as such on Broadway.

When women started out to see Their hero, in some tragedy Like “Wedded But No Wife,” They watched him leap from flat flat The while they talked of this and that And other things of life. i to The buzz and hum, in days of yore, When tongues were wagging by the score, In ev’ry movie house, Would drive a nervous man to drinl:. He couldn’t get a chance to taink, And so became a ‘souse.’ Most all these evils soon will change! When movie stars who ride the range Are speaking on the screens, Here's hoping they will shout a-loud | And overcome the chatting crowd That spoils so many scenes. = i SUCCEEDS BISHOP BURCH H | Attends Conse- cration of Rev. Dr. W. T. Manning | Distinguished Clergy at Trinity Church in New York. New York, May 11.—Distinguished | churchmen from all parts of the count gathered today at the Cathe- i dral of St. John the Divine church i witness to ceremonies attending the consecration of the Rev. Dr. William T. Manning, rector of Trinity parish as tenth bishop of the Protestant Episcopal diocese of New York. He ' succeeds Bishop Charles Sumner Burch who died recently. More than 400 members of the Protestant Episcopal clergy, including 27 bishops were formed in an impos- | ing procession to march from the synod house to the cathedral for the consecration. . Members of the clergy of other Protestant denominations and leaders of the Jewish faith were in the procession as guests. The Right Rev. Daniel S. Tuttle, ' bishop of Missouri, was chief conse- ' crator. He has consecrated 72 other! bishops. LABOR MEN OPPOSED.

War: ‘The business of killing off private citizens to punish the im- pudence of an arrogant statesman. The Virginia judge who ruies that a man must stay at home at night is doing his best to discourage romance. Adam probably knew most of the jokes we enjoy, except those about mothers-in-law. Lay up no treasures on earth, where moths and rust corrupt and the tax assessor seeks whom he may devour. It isn’t enough for France to safe- guard posterity; she must also provide a posterity to safeguard France, If David kept a list of those who bought it for non-beverage purposes no wonder he said all men are liars. After a war, men still hunger for excitement and combat. And that doubtless explains the increase of | bizamy. A dentist informs us that defective teeth cause crime. Want of defective teeth in the laws has the same effect. Another weakness of the system is that so many people who believe in enforcing prohibition don’t believe in observing it. The rest of us may find consolation in the fact that photographs of great men nearly always show their pants bagging at the knees. —_— If doughboys were digging trenches now, the fish worms unearthed would put a crimp in the plans of G.
