CHICKEN FEATURES + K. OF C. ACTIVITIES Whole Committee VRequired o/ Straighten Out Broiler Tangle The Knights of Columbus held a Whist, dance and sociul at the organiza- tion’s home on Franklin Square last night—and that's not all they held. A chicken award featured the evening and it was ‘‘some” chicken. The dancing, whist and social faded into the dim light of non-consequential events when the chicken finale came off. As the critics of Shakespeare might say, ‘‘and thereby hangs a tale,” mean- ing of course to the chicken. 'Twas early on one of the week afternoons that a telephone message was received at the home. *This is Mrs. Idonatem of 55 Maple Hill speaking. 1 under- stand that you people are giving a whist and social on Friday night and I would like to donate something for the grab bag. I have a nice chicken which I would be willing to give,”” ran the wire’s incantation. And immediately the Deity of Kindness ran over the Wil ‘“Well, of course, I appreciate your offer but I'll have to take it up with the committee. It doesn’t seem ._hlsl appropriate to put a nice chicken into a grab bag; possibly we could give it as a prize award. I'll let you know, Mrs. Idonatem, thank you." The committee met ‘Wednesday night and the subject of the chicken dona- tion was brought up. The members were fllled with admiration and praise of a person wishing to help out in such a manner. Thomas Devine, chairman, was in favor of the prize award. And so it was voted to accept the offer and have a chicken on hand Friday night. The difficulty of getting the piece of poultry to the home then presented it- self. - But, does not Joseph Ryan have the use of a wet wash laundry car and is he not an active and interested broth- er? He does and he is. 'Twas settled; Joe would get the chicken. Yesterday afternoon the flying squad- ron went flivvering to Maple Hill hunt. ing a chicken. “I can’t find No. 55, said Joe, and the people with him agreed. They hunted high and low but no such number unveiled itself to the searching eyes. Telephonic connection was made with Mr. Devine. He was sure of the number and even said he would go and show them where it was. But the chairman was also out of luck. It appeared that there would be no poultry award. A neatly dressed young woman, with orange colored slip-on, cream colored dress, and snappy sport shoes, quietly entered one of the city's markets yes- terday afternoon and asked for a broil- er. Of course the clerks were all at- tention and said young woman went out carrying a freshly killed youns fowl. She then continued on her way. 5 Last evening one of the Western Union messengers, the boys who dress in the marine colored service uniform, or is it yellowish-green, was despatch- ed to the K. of C. home with a bundle under_his arm. Mr. Devine was sought for and’located. The package was giv en him and opened. There was a very nice young broiler with the card of Mrs. Idonatem resting peacefully across the breasted fowl. Rejoicing filled the hearts of the committee members for did not they have the much talked of chicken for a prize award offering? The drawing netted over $7.50, so ’tis said, and everyone was happy. The veil of doubt had lifted, the chicken had been received and Danny Fitzpatrick had captured it, as he is wont to do, and Mrs. Idonatem was being praised to the skies. One member wondered who played the joke. It did not take long for the sleuths on the trail to find out for there was a guilty conscience loit- ering about. The resultant factor of the sleuth’'s work was attaching the blame to Miss Mary Fitzgerald, well known N. B. Machine stenographer. She had put one over cleverly on the committee, which worried for over 20 minutes on Wednesday night over ac- cepting the offer. ‘Twas a great whist party, a great social, and a great dance—but, oh, it was a very great chicken—about two pounds. Poor Steve Lynch, who does love chickens, was decidedly out of luck. He missed the evening’s diversions in his trial for the white meat and then lost out to Danny Fitz.

In acting hip, Mr. Kranowitz made the following statement “In accepting the appointment, T hope .o discharge my duties from the stanapoint of what is best for the people at large. “T shall exercise independent judg- ment in the problems that will con- front the board.

Smuts, pre- mier of the Union of South Africa put upon the original offer from the British government” The Irish Independent urged the premier to readjust or. modify the conditions to which the Irish leaders have taken exception, and said the alternative would be a renewal of war ‘“on a scale that would appall numanity and would ultimately dis- credit and disgrace England.” “With the will to make peace on both sides,” the newspaper said, *it ought to be possible to arrive by a conference at a basis upon which a settlement that is honorable and satisfactory to both sides could be effecetd.” The Irish Times. The Irish Times said the immedi- ate effect of Mr. De Valera's note to London and the reply of Premier Lloyd George had been to bring ne- notiations to a very critical point. “The undoubted gravity of situation calls for cool heads clear minds on both sides of Irish sea.” the newspaper added. A wearisome exchange of more notes can serve no useful purpose. Sooner or later ‘some definite de- ision must be reached.” BUSINESS AS USUAL WITH THE GERMANS (Continted From First Page). the and the anything else but release this prop- erty.

French this afternoon. Mr. French recently pe- titioned the Public Utilities commis- sion for a permit to operate a jitney line between this city and Meriden, over the “Cat Hole Road.” His pro- ject had the support of many influ- ontial people residing along the pro- rosed jitney route. A hearing was lield recently on the petition and, al- though he had no official report on the hearing yet, he has been advised that the commission, anxious as usua! to give the Connecticut company everything it possibly can, will per- mit him to run to Kensington only during the busy part of the day. The commission however is said to be in favor of permitting him to operate a buss line to Meriden after the last trcin around 9 o'clock at night and one eady trip in the morning bringing employes to the local factories. However, Mr. French has been promised the franchise of the pro- posed railroad which never was built, over this road. If he can get the franchise he intends to run indepen- dently of the utilities commission rul- ing and make through tdips o na reg- ular schedule. He does not antici- pate any difficult in getting the franchise, claiming that it was promised him for a vear with the privilege of buying same if his service is satisfactory at the close of the year. “It would not be a satisfactory service, if I could run only to Ken- sington, there would not be business enough to pay to give the people the service they should have,” said Mr French. There would be only one or two passengers every few hours.” The service will begin shortly after Labor Day.

Of. the total, $812,923 is listed as represented by “Swig family loans so-called.”” The ccllateral by which these loans are secured was es- timated by the commissioner as not exceeding $100,000 in value. CONSIDERING TAXES Finance Committee Decides To Give Preference To Tax Bill, Moving It Ahead of Tariff Question. Washington, Aug. 27.--The senmate finance committee decided focay to put the tax bill ahead of the tariff.

Of this amount, Russia can furnish only about 25 per cent., which will leave a shortage of about 945,000 tons. “If we do gamble on the hope of outside aid, and use up the food upply for seed, the famine may slaughter during the coming winter not only those now suffering from hunger, but also those whose grain must be taken for seeding. With some 250 shiploads of five thousand tons each this whole problem can be solved and that is our problem in a nutshell.” No Engines Available. In reply to an inquiry as to the 1bility of the soviet government to transport grain to the famine dis- tricts if it was available M.
