For the benefit of thase who have not we might state that The Herald printed, Saturday evening, a statement from Charles Giardino. The following morning that paper printed an article, a blind one, in- sinuating that the managing editor of The Herald and his paper was to be investigated. Last evening, in answer ‘we printcd a statement that The Her- ald had secured the interview in ques- tion from Gilardino. v Appegred in The Courant this morn- ing this delicious bit of evasion: ' Unfortunate Break. An unusual feature of the ex- posure which was not on the schedule was an unfortunate story printed Saturday in the ‘New Britain Herald’ which attempted to show in large headings that the Gardini brothers, who had confessed to the state, had dcnied that they had confessed. The ar- ticle attempted to show in an in- terview that the Gardinis did not know McAuliffe, who is alleged to have been bribed by the pair. State’s Attorney Alcorn said yes- that the story in ‘the ‘New ald’ was untrue. State igation established the fact that the article was with- out foundation and although re- srotable hwould cause the -state ssment as its circu- Jation was more or less limited. The state police learned that the arbled information was secured second hand. The incicent will dered closed if further sceurcd by the state authorities are not dcnied by the New Britain paper, it was said by the state police yesterday. The ‘New Britain Herald” carried a two-column cisplay article as an NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD.

Reliable” Special Wednesdéy four hundred Boy Scouts registered and in good standing with many more con- nected with troops but not yet actually registered. This is about that of last vear but the following report of achievement for the first nine months of this year shows a considerable ad- vamnce in the quality of scouting. With the three months left of the year to be added to these totals 1921 bids fair to be a banner year in achievement work. Merit badges passed in 1920, 76; so far t TFirst- cl. tests in 1920, 31; so far this year, 20 ¥ Second class tests in 1920, 389; sof far this year, 41. Eagle scouts in 1920, 2; so far this year, 1. Boys attending summer camp this Vear were 62 with a total number of 165 scout weeks. This is somewhat less than last year due to conditions, Every scout who did attend camp was able to swim before leaving. There were two actual cases of life saving in the water during the season. During the year a school for the training of adult leaders was conducted for eight weeks from which 18 men were awarded certificates of proficiency by the National Council, Boy Scouts of America. Several of these men have been placed in positions of leadership and some are still to be used in the program of extention. Three are in process of organization which was de- ferred by the vacation & season and camping. A strict policy hus been ad- hered to for quality and not quantity scouting. Extension of scput work is dependent entirely upon aRult leader- ship and not upon the boy| himself. A school for patrol leaders was con- ducted for eight weeks with amazing ‘results. ~ Another school is now in pro- cess of organization which will reach about three times as many scouts. Among the many activities of the Boy Scout council during the year 1921 the following are mentioned because they have a direct bearing upon the res lationship of the boy and his commun- ity, Scouts observed Fire Prevention ‘Week at the request of the president by watching out for forest fires. Arrang- ed a window display relative to the prevention of fires and observed the week at their gnnual raily and field day by subscribing® to the Boy Scout Fire Prevention Oath administered by the chairman of the board of fire commis- sioners at Walnut Hill park: Scouts planted the garden ' at the Fresh Air camp at Burlington.

Probably [ who died recently at his summer home List of Available Rents which an attempt was made to justify the interview which the state has termed to be a fabrica- tion. The Gardinis have told the state’s attorney that what they told him in the Hartford county jail holds good, the sfory in the New Britain paper to the con- trary notwithstanding. I The “feature of the exposdre which was not on the schedule,” we sup- posd, was the fact that The Herald spoke out of turn, treading on the toes of the zealous Courant. The Herald “attempted to show” nothing /it simply printed Giardino's state- ment, as it got it. State authorities may or may, not be responsible for the statement that The Herald stoyy was untrue. Upon that we cannot speak, but we do know that mo one has approached us to learn how the printed interview was obtained. The iefrculation of The Herald's story was limited—to New Britain and its en- ivirons, wherein The Herald enjoys a |concentrated circulation, and an en- {hanced prestige since the jealous and {fanatic attacks of the Hartford con- |temporady.

The “apology” sentence, in conclusion, which The Courant states the State of €onnecticut has termed our story of Saturday evening to be a fabrication may be read and should be read with The Courant’s treatment of our “apology,” which appeared in last evening’s paper, in mind. Last night’s front page editorial was no apology anc. even thuagh The Courant has said that the State has found Saturday evening’s interview to be a “fabrication” we stand upon both a ticles as printed—not as either, par- ticularly the last, has been distorted in The Courant. The Hartford paper has so mixed its own corclusions with the alleged statements of the state officials that it is difficult to separate the sense of the article. W& Have stood trial for no offense, we have not been questioned 23 to our interview with Giardino, we have been tried and found guilty by the Hartford paper.

It must come here, ufd the attitude of the committee is such that it /Awill come. Various plans have been made whereby there may be preparatory in- struction as to the care of the teeth, and work done through the public schools.| It is probable that the iocal dentists will give a deal of their time to this work, organized as it is to be, as some of them have done in the past. In this age it should be understood how much of one's health depends upon the condition of the teeth, and how much wiser it is to begin that care early in life. New Britain should certainly delay no longer in getting behind this movement, which is planned only to ‘arry the work through until the city may take up the work with the start which will have been made in these months before ihe ending of the fiscal year, when it will undoubtedly become a city institution. So have an ear to the slogan: “Better Teeth.” COURAGE. McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, commenting upon the games played thus far, took time to praise Babe Ruth for playing as he has done, with an injured arm. Babe Ruth has shown remarkable physical courage. To look at his picture one will see the elements there that make for great activity, love of sport and fun, and, less obvious, that courage to which Manager McGraw referred. But, among ball players,. perhaps the courage displayed years ago by| Merkle who, making the hit that/ would have won a game more im- portant than any played in any series, threw away the game and the honors, by failing to touch second base, thus making what is called a “bone” play.
