Not much difference | between catching fish and catching votes, 1 guess. Al—Depends upon the fisherman to some extent. I had a bad line the | last time I fished. | Herb—Well, the pond was big enough, and both of us caught plenty } of poor fish, maybe. Al—Yes, the pond was too big, and | there were too many different kinds | of fish in it. I'm best at catching only one kind. Herb—Your mistake, Al The | best fisherman is he who is trained to catch anything from minnows to whales and play no favorites. Al—Sure thing; it depends also | to some extent on the kind of plat- | form you happen to be fishing from. | Mine broke on me several times.

More care, in fact, was exercised by thousands of people; but dome got more reckices. In 1928 there were 464 automo- bile deaths in Connecticut. This was an average of more than | one a day. | Instead of a decrease compared with the previous year there was a substantial increase! ! Golng back to 1927: In that year| there were 11,979 persons injured by automobiles in the state. In 1928 the injured totals had risen to 12,012 Where is all this going to end? The | newspapers are consistently filled | with stories of automobile fatalities | and injuries, and nine times out of | ten one can read betwen the lines, if driving caused the trip to the ceme- tery or the hospital. i Last April it was announced that 23,387 drivers in the state had been | put under bonds the previous two | years to give proof of financial responsibility in case of accident, or | to show they were able to satisfy damage claims arising from colli- sions. This is the state’s way of tak- | ing action after a collision. Action before a collision takes place is not | so0 effective. Professor Kirby of Yale caleulat- | ed two years ago that since 1910 3,200 people had been Killed in the state by automobiles, and 65,000 in- jured. As previously shown, the figures have gone up since that time. In spite of these appalling losses, Professor Kirby stated, the public at- tiude is one of “pious expressions of hope that in some way the situation may soon improve.” He compared it to the plague. WHERE NO PARKING WORKS A year ago Chicago put into eficet | the most far-reaching tratfic regula- American eity. The | scheme was simplicity in itself: No | parking in the loop district. “ Transferred to an casy under- | standing in New Britain, this would be like no parking in the downtown A comprchensive report of the year's experience in Chicago is at hand, and it notes that the plan has been amazingly successful from any | standpoint. The merchants, particu- | larly, are pleased at the result. | Whereas during the first few weeks | of the no parking ban trade fell off, | it rapidly incrased from that time | theater in the choice of proper plays, both legitimate and cinema. Various legitimate plays were mentioned as being worthy the attendance of church people, but “Strange Inter- lude” and “The Front Page” were not among the number. Among the cinema pieces was “8inging Fool,” which was given here for more than & week, It would be interesting to discover upon what basis the association makes its suggestions. We are in- |clined to think that, in view of the inclusion of the Jolson film, its at- | {titude is liberal. In “The Singing Iool” there were scenes of hilarity in night clubs and violations of the prohibition law that were at least vivid. When a church drama league approves a play containing such scenes it must be taken as evidence that the days are rapidly passing when it was considered prudent to approve only those hinted at nothing that could not take place within & church parlor. plays which DEGRE AND SALARIES Is a school teacher with earned degrees in the rear of her name en- titled to more money as a school teacher than the teacher who lacks the degrees? aezording to the Board of Educa- tion, which took negative action in the case of certain M. A. degrees re- cently, she isn't. According to the tcachers who made a special effort, through in- creased study, to obtain the degrees, the school board's opinion is wrong. They say they are entitled to more pay because they know more. The school board, i it were pressed for a further explanation, doubtless | would counter that the teachers with the degrees may know more, but not necessarily ahout teaching. The teachers could retort that a knowledge of the carned the degrees is subjects which prima facie cvidence that they ean teach better. Of course, we do not propose to be a referee in this ticklish question. But a few gencral obscrvations from an outsider might not be "he cdge that comes with a degree well ned in itself compensates for the amniss. increased systematic knowl- ca cffort and expense required in ob- taining it. Whether the added knowl- cdge can be coined into money is sccondary. The man or woman who reads a library of books is certain to gain mentally, but in this world that is no guarantee that he will be able to carn a cent more on account of such mental gains. But this observation does not ap- on, until today there is more busi- ness being done in the ever before in the history of the ! city. The annual percentage increase | loop than ] was greater than at any time since 1923, the year of recovery after the | deflation period. Chicago merchants, it appears, are | now thoroughly convinced that busi- ness does not depend upon the ability of parkers to clutter up the | streets. They have discovered that parkers keep trade away. The park- | find a plenitude of | the loop and room in Grant park, mearby. From | these places they walk the fow blocks to the loop district and can move about unimpeded. The report has a brilliant para- graph, too, which can be reprinted with profit. Here it is: | “Happily, the hysteria for so-call- ed ‘stop and go' signals, which was comparable to the lightning rod | craze that once swept the land, has | begun to subside. Unfortunately the | devices intendde for regulation and | safety of traffic can actually become | a menace and obstruction of traffic.” Speed through the loop used to be | cight miles an hour, in theory. Actually it was nearer four miles an | hour, and sometimes not that. In the | first month of the no parking era | the speed was increased to 12 miles an hour, in July it was increased to 15 miles an hour, and thus it has the political family is like when a | go0od man is at the top. | Herb—How'd you like a job in my | | cabinet? remaincd. Pedestrians are taken care | of by the traffic police, and there | are no long and unnecessary delays. | There may be much evil and law- | {lessness in Chicago; but in devising ply to all callings. The teaching pro- fession is peculiarly dependent upon the knowledge that its practitioners | possess. A person lacking education could not teach others; hence it cducation & teacher possesses the more valuable teacher. Unfortunately analysis, there is the limit of knowl- edge required by specialization in various grades or studies. Suppose & grade teacher by study and effort manages to acquire as much knowl- edge as the average high school in- structor possesses. This may not often happen, or may never happen; but is merely a supposition for purposes of illustration. In such a supposed case, the knowledge posscssed by the grade teacher would not of itsclf she beecomes as a for pur, of to the high school teacher. The rea- son is, the education acquired by the grade teacher is more than the city is buying of a grade teacher. If this grade teacher insisted on being paid in conformity with her knowledge she would be forced to enter a high- cr sphere of teaching. 1t is just like the store clerk who | toda anniversary dinner are ex-Senator Sloper, W.

It was voted to de- clare a dividend of 20 per cent off on $20 in trade. The grand list total for 1803 is $12,592,453. The largest increase was $9,000, made on the list of M. Schupack. There are 3,454 houses, 802 horses, 536 neat cattle, and 811 wagons in New Britain, An error of $332,000 in the list was discovered and this correction is included in the above figures.

Kaescher He had never had the courage to kiss a girl' in all his life. He had often wished to. As a matter of fact, if he had dared he would have kissed every pretty girl he saw, But he was bashful, very, very bashful, The fact that he had never had the thrill of kissing a girl became an obsession with him. He walked the streets eyeing pretty girls and, in the delirium of a certain vicarions pleasure, kissed them all mentally. And then, one day, he found him- self in the railroad station where vast numbers of people hurried. And there were pretty girls in great abundance. He'd never scen 80 many lovely girls in his life. He wandered about the station till he came to the place where the trains come in. TLong stretches of | people were lined up along a roped- off area. Surging streams of men, womer: and children poured out from the train that had just pulled in. Mechanically he joined those behind the rope to watch. Ever so often he saw a man or & woman break from where he stood, rush forward to meet a passenger from the train: “Aunt Julia! “Uncle Joe! And the two met in a warm em- | brace, and kisses were exchanged And then, as he watched, a most demure and pretty girl, almost the last to leave the train, approached. He hesitated, embarrassed. Her eyes sought eagerly a friendly face. Her lips, temptingly. youthfully red, trembled with disappointment, Whe- ever was to meet her was not there, She stopped, and was about to turn away when, out from the little knot |of people remaining, our bashful youth sprang, and rushing to the | waiting girl. swept her into his arms and kissed her with all the pent-up vearning of days. “ousin Minnie!” he cried. ‘Cousin George!™ she gurgled. “I beg your pardon.” he stam- {mered in sincere confusion, “my name’s Walter, Some mistake,” and he rushed away .
