THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1921 “JEST RUMINATIN".” (Robert Russell.) “You cannot teach old dogs new tricks’’ can’t surely be cor- rect, for @ the years §go passin’ by come chances to re- flect. An’ this reflectin’ shouid bring sense to see mistakes we've made for which both we an’' other folks have often dearly paid. An’ so ol' women an’ o' men should live with open mind to learn the new progressive tricks an’' not be left behind. If there is any good in age it comes from vision new, that allus should be welcomed by the likes o me an’ you. A white-haired man or woman who is allus lookin' out to keep right up to date an’ know the things folks talks about, is better fitted to advise than he who shakes his head at progress an' relies alone on things that's passed an' dead. There'll allus be amendments to a document, though fine: you've made amendments to your life as I have made in mine. The great- est truths o' life are old, an them we don’t neglect, but “You can't teach ol’ dogs new tricks” jest simply ain’'t cor- rect. commercial interests may profit by it in certain localities? Locally a more open Sunday would benefit this city. There is little dan- ger at present that the effect of this bill would be to make Sunday like all other days in the week. It would permit our young men, semi-profes- sional ball players, who work all the week, to play their games, enjoy themselves and entertain hundreds of others, and to charge an amount suf- ficient to defray the expenses of the opposing team. It would permit the music Sunday afternoons by who are too tired from work other days of the week to attend and who have no in the day- hearing of many on evening concerts, chance to attend them time. Governor Lake's words his veto of the measure make fine reading. One is inclined to be in full sympathy with the sentiments expressed while reading them. They are shrouded in the beauty of tradi- regarding tion. But when the practical matter of bringing a little more brightness and vital pleasure into the lives of those who work hard is considered, one cannot continue in that gentle line of reasoning. New Britain people work and work hard when they have the chance. There is need of some play to keep energy in that work. Athletes be- come “overtrained” when some Mux- ury is not added to their diet. Playing ball, or watching games, though an admission fee |is hearing concerts are anything but degenerating pleasures, and in some cases might take the place of other “pleasure” not half as elevating. It is quite probable, and it is hoped, that the Sunday bill will be passed over the veto of the Governor. “*A rolling stone gathers no moss,"”” lot of havoc in even charged, or and usually leaves a its wake.
