One way to prevent an engineer from driving his locomotive too fast is to have such bumpy tracks that it will be uncomfortable riding. That plan works on some jerkwater lines. The plan to construct a new city hall is snother of those things which nobody any longer mentions. A safe bet is that the city hall will remain where it is and how it is for 80 more years—if not 60. ‘What happens if one takes the gas ont of a gas station argument? EXPANDING THE LIBRARY The addition to the New Britain Institute made possible by the ac- ceptance of the Hawley bequest by the library trustees gratifies all citi- zens. To be true, the addition will be devoted entirely to children, but con- sequent removal of the present chil- dren’s department from the base- ment of the present building to the Hawley addition will mean possi- bllities of considerable expansion for adults in the present library bullding.

My wife often compares it to Versailles.” s e They were sitting together after supper on the verandah at Meadow- brook Farm where the college pro- fessor of English had just arrived as a hoarder. “It's certainly a peach, all right,” said the professor. “I like it especially,” the farmer went on, “when the sun sets and the twilight steals over it all. It gives one a sort of a hushed feeling—I can’t express ift—but something al- most reverential.” “I know what you mean,” said the professor, “it gets your goat.” “I try in vain to think beyond it,” to penctrate into deeper mystery be- hind.” “And it beats you mured the ally. “The quiet,” said the farmer, “ap- peals to me.
