OTHER “TIME" BILL Tt is evident that ridicule will have no effect upon the opponents of day- Hght saving time in the assembly, It 1s evident that they do not object to having this state held up to scorn 88 & place where a supposedly in. telligent body of men seriously insists upon passing a law which would puu.] ish a person for doing something in| the pursuit of happiness and the en- | Joyment of liberty, guaranteed by the constitution, which a person had a| constitutional right to do. For that| is what these opponents of daylight saving have done in passing, in the house, the new law against displaying clocks in public which show any time other than standard time, The question comes do these men intend to pass a law that they must know is unconstitutional, to say noth- ing of its merits, or are they unable to realize that such a law would be unconstitutional? If the former—if | they want to try to “get by" with an unconstitutional law, what may be sald of their patrioism, their loyalty to their land and its basic law? If the latter—if they cannot see such a law would be unconstitutional, what may be said for their powers of reasoning? Let one question be asked of them, Would they pass a law providing a penalty to be imposed upon the man ‘who, when asked in public what time it was, replied that it is ‘“Seven o'clock a. m.”, when, according to standard time it was six o'clock. A/ law providing punishment for stating | the time according to daylight saving | time would be just as constitutional as this one providing punishment for displaying a daylight saving time clock in a building that fronts on a public street, We have not yet returned to the| ignorant, narrow state of mind that allows our legislators to provide pun- ishment for a man who, if you will, makes a statement not i{n accordance with the facts as considered ‘facts' by a group of legislators. This, aside | from the matter of free speech, and aside, also, from the merits of the daylight saving discusion. ARMORY APPROPRIATION. No matter how thoroughly we may deprecate war—and one may not overdo things in this regard—we want to emphasize upon every occa- sion the importance that should be given in every city, town and com- munity to the things our former serv- ice men have done and are doing; to the things our fighters are doing and | are interested in. All military men, | National and State, and all organiza- | tions of former service men are vitally interested in secing the State Armory on Arch street maintained in good condition. It represents to them an experience which stands out most prominently in their lives; it repre- sents to them something which may become a neceseity in future; it stands for a great the place where American strength has| been assembled—the place of which | there may be great need in the fu- ture. So we are glad that an oppropria- tlon for maintaining that armory has | been given the approval of the lower | branch of the legislature of the state| and we hope that there will be no/ hesitation on the part of the senate‘v | patriotism, | us are Not—may or the Governor in seeing to it that such measure law, For- getting the necessities of the armory | would be fust one step in the | direction of forgetting what was donc | by our fighting men in time of ter rible neceseity and of forgetting what | the younger men of the city willing to do again should the necessity come. becomes a more stand same ING AT IT home KE hammering points Again which will eventuaily, it hoped, reduce the number of automo- bile accidents, the results of motoring in New Britain for the weeks' period ending April 14 is There were 17 accidents, only two of which came after nightfall and most of them on the streets at points other | than intersections.

It is gratifying to see that| the appellate division of the New | York Supreme court has taken the same stand, thus allowing & person| charged with improper conduct tol have her word In court, The opinion of the appellate court| states that if a defendant charged with violation of h's marriage vows| chooses not to defend the innocence | of one charged to have been gullty| with him, and she steps into his| place to fight those charges she be- comes the adverse party to the action | and is entitled to a jury trial, The decision 1s right in justice and law and brings satisfaction that, in this matter of such great importance to, the one charged with sharing in the/ misconduct of the person who refuses to say that he did not misconduct himself, the one who wishes to de- clare and prove that she, at least, is not gullty, will have the chance to tell her story and present her msu! before a jury of her peers, AMERICAN GOLFERS WIN Now that Francis Ouimet, of Bos-| ton has put the first touch of Ameri- | can victory on the golf links of Eng- land, by winning the Royal St George's champion grand challenge golf trophy, we of this country, whether golfers or not—and most of be pardoned for making a little note of the victory and of emphasizing once again that it is something for a kid of a country to cross the water and beat the old man | - at his own game. But when the English eritics of golf | print right out in their papers compli- to the Americai players sprinkled h such adjectives as “splendid,”” ‘“‘well-merited victory," and all that, and when they refrain from detracting from the credit of the American victory, one may not be pardoned if the temptation to “gloat” is not resisted, It makes one quite modest about the whole thing when the English Morning Post, for in- stance, remarks that “Plainly our friends the enemy have no longer anything to learn from us, and equally plainly we have something to learn from them.” So, in the endeavor to be just as| modest winners as the Englishmen are sportmanlike losers, we will merely say in passing that we are honestly glad we had such a good game against such worthy opponents and that we consider it an achievement to have beaten them, CROSS-COUNTRY FLIGHT No bird could fly continuously for 26 hours, 40 minutes and 48 2-5 sec- onds; no bird could fly, without rest- ing, 2,625 miles. But this is what a man-made machine has done under the care of two human beings, Tieu- tenants Oakley G. Kelly and John A. Macready. Twenty years ago when a crowd of curious spectators stood about a curi-’ ous machine and scoffed, one of the crowd remarked, “Huh; that thing will never the ground.” “"'i it rose, guided by Orville Wright and remained in the air a few minutes, 1f that scoffer had been told a similar | machine wonld, in the month of May, 1928, show itself more powerful, more anduring than the bird of the air, his ments | leave in far more vehement terms. 1t this trans-continental flight does no more than to erase from some | minds the belief that man's brains were not given him to invent new ma- | chinery, to discover means of improv- ing even upon the good things ture, or Providence or God has given | us, it will mark a wonderful epoch. “If God had intended man to do this thing, he would have given us wings" unheard of remark today. Like comments are made upon inven- | tions as vet only dreamed of. The tra- | dition-bound are shocked at such dreams; they fight changes in the mental attitude of man. But the great- er conception of a Divine Being is one which pictures him as looking down whi v . e s s the old werds: It 1o good.” NEW YORK AND US The New York the euieiature has res Iy o the pealed Moreement knewn &9 the Governer signe the o, New York will be W position a8 Rhode Isiand In regurd 10 enforcement, The. duty of enforcing the eeeks to tell what 4 1s expected he ¥ the same eretiesily the aw which under the general phrasin will be iilegal the congtitutional amendment upon the Federa! government and not upon the state authorities.

There is still one day left for work between week-ends. Bore: Any individual who thinks a proper sentence must begin with the pronoun * One way to run across somebody you know in a strange city is to in- dulge In something naughty. The honor an office can confer de- pends almost wholly upon the size of the men who have held it. Another germ we wish to see isolat- ed {s the one who is full of words concerning the European situation. That Darwinian theory doesn’t seem so unreasonable when you hear a fat man’s love letters read in court. "‘Whal," demands a reformer, “is the first step on the way to ruin?” ‘Well, there's the goose step. At this rate it won't be 200 years until all the people have political jobs and make a living by taxing one an- other. A contemporary asks what a third | party will stand for. So far we can see, there doesn't appear to be any limit. An optimist is one who thinks mat- ters might have been worse if we hadn't begun to elect senators by pop- ular vote. A born leader is a man who can fondle a popular prejudice in his bosom until people get the idea that he made it. If an Egyptian curse can last three thousand years, there isn't much hope of relief from the present style trend. The advantage in having a second husband is that experience In raising children has taught you how to handle a husband.

Department of Commerce Views Situation With Optimism BY GEORGE H. MANNING (Washington Bureau of New Eritain Herald), Washington, D, C., May 5.—Pros- |pects for increased foreign trade by {American manufacturers of hardware and cutlery arp seen as greatly im- proved on acc#unt of the gradual de- terioration of the German product which has hitherto been in possession of most markets. According to reports to the depart- ment of commerce from American consular representatives, the outiook time last year. Situation in Mexico In the Mexican market, for exam- ple, rather slow buying on the part of local retailers, on count of the large stocks on hand since 1921, has teatured the cutlery trade; but with the more favorable exchange situation the signs are that there will be an increased demand. Local retailers of Mexico are won- dering, too, whether the German mar- ket will remain open to them much longer, in view of the recent political developments in industrlal Germany. Amerfcan exporters, using the most intelligent merchandising methods such’ as the selection of able salesmen, should be in a position to take advan- tage of this probable contingency. American Razors Preferred Pocket and pen knives and scissors of German manufacture have been very popular in this market. On the other hand, American razors, par- ticularly safety razors, are held in |preference. The cheaper German | safety razor is not sold in as large quantities as the better American brands retailing at about ten pesos. | Siverware, including plated table |eutlery, is chiefly imported from the | United States. Miscellaneous cutlery |bordering on the line of edged tools comes almost exelusively from United States, Amevican manufacturers will un- doubtedly find it rather difficult to supplant at once the German manu- factured article which has had such |an excelient reputation in the cutlery line in practically all parts of Latin America, it is stated. Only by the | gradual introduction of the best Am- erican cutlery by the most improved sales methods, placed upon this mar- ket at the very lowest prices com- patible with a fair profif, may advan- tage now be taken of the existing in dustrial order, Latvia New Field For Development The Latvian market is another, hitherto dominated hy German hard- | ware, which should he opened up more to the American trade, The cause of the domination of the mar- ket by Germany is to be found in the low German currency, and the prox- |Imity of that country to Latvia. The |effect of the currency is passing, but |of course the advantages accruing from proximity are permanent, and are further enhanced by Initiative and enterprise of the German for- warding agents in effecting prompt delivery, ! Purchasers in Latvia are conserva- [tive and reputation goes far toward finding a market. This is evidenced by the popularity of American saws ‘and safety razors of well known makes. Amerienn merchants cannot obtain a proportionate representation on the leeal market if they Insist on cash at rort of shipment. Thelr British com- petitors, who are quite conservative, seemn satisfleld with a pereentage of the cost with the order, and a sub- stantlal part of the remainder against documents Riga, and terms less fav- orable will hurt the proepeets of the exporter, Ba sure and get your classifierd ads | you wish them published. is now much better than it was at this| lh()l Mayor Paonessa hes taken proper course ip net forcing the pub- o swimming poo! onto the residents of Belvidere agalust their protests, e recognlzes that there 13 some merit to thelr arguments and alse appreclates that thelr metive is stply the pre- tection of Lheir nelghborhood agalnst the intrusion of thoughtless young men and boys whoe are not #™ways eirs cumspect in their conduet Belvidere residents take pride in the beauty of their neighberheed, Many of them have bullt attractive homes at great saerifice and they do not wish the distriet opened up to swarms of “Young America” who might take kindly to their flower heds and their fruit trees, not te men- tion the annoyance caused by their exuberanee.

It was on May 8, 1823, ’that Charles Kemble, a London the- ‘r“:\" manager, produced a play, “Clarl, | the written by Payne, “Clari" of the play | was induced to return to her home by { hearing a song that had been familiar |to her childhood. It was “Home, Sweet Home,” and was sung by Anna | Marfe Tree, the “Clari" of the produc- |tion. The song was an inspiration born in Payne's heart. He once said: | “The world has literally sung my song until every heart is familiar with its melody, yvet I have been a wanderer | since my boyhood.” Sir Henry Rowly Bishop, an Eng- lish musician, composed the melody for “Home, Sweet Home.” He had | also composed other airs for Payne's | play. Sir Henry used as a musical | setting for Payne's words a previous composition called “A Sicilian Air,” set to the words of “To the Home of My Childhood in Sorrow I Came.” Payne continued to wander and died in Tunis on April 10, 1852. was buried in St. George's cemetery overlooking the bay of Tunis and the ruins of ancient Carthage. In 1883, W. W, Corcoran was instrumental in, having Payne's body brought to the| United States and reinterred in Oak| Hill cemetery. The body was escart-l ed to its final resting place by the president of the United States, his| cabinet, regiments of soldiers and many bands which played with never- to-be-forgotten effect ‘‘Home, Sweet Home.” John Barton Payne was home at last. CRo S With the coming of spring and the bursting forth of flowers from the | soil, it is of {nterest to learn how| some of the best known flowers ob- | tained their names.” Many of them got their names because of their ap- pearance and many named for famous botanists, A list of the most popular flowers and the | derlvation of their names follows: Aster: I'rom the Latin aster, a !!ari because the shape of the bloom re- | sembles a star, i Cockscomb: Because when in bloom‘ it is red and shaped like a comb of a‘ cock. | Fuchsia: Named after Fuchs, a German botanist. | Begonia: After Michael Begon, a French promoter of botany. | Bittersweet: A poisonous plant, so| named probably because at first taste | the plant is sweet and then bitter, | Camomile: means, literally, earth! apple so called from the scent of 1Li" flowers. The foliage is also very| strongly scented. | Chrysanthemum: C(omes of Greek words meaning gold-flower, i Dandelion: Not named because it suggests dandyism, but because it comes from the French dent de lion, | or the lion's tooth. It has a fancled | resemblance to a lion’s tooth. 1 Dahlia: Named after A. Dahl, a Swedish botanist. Zinnia: Named after J. G. Zinn, a Gottingen professor of medicine. | Daisy: From the Anglo-8axon, | which means the “‘day's eye.” | Lady's-slipper: The pouch-shaped | !119 of the flower somewhat resembles | |a lady's slipper. | Jonquil: Comes from the Latin Jjuncus, a rush, because its leaves are | rush-ltke, | . ..
