There seems to be an lncreasing . tendency to refer to betting en horee races as “speculation.” Of course, wo- ‘ bédy cares to gamble nowndays; we all speculate, even when, on a rainy _dmy, we loan the other feliow an um- ‘brella, or suddenly discover that our pravious speculation has not resulted * ! i winning back the rainstick.

The favorite bargain: A match for a cigarette, THE NATIONAL SPELLING BEE New Britain's 1929 spelling champ, Miss Teresa Chiarvalloti, seems to have been faced with the usual hard opposition at the national spelling bee in Washington. This explains why, out of a field of 21 spellers, she tanded in 19th place, which netted her $25 in prize money. We congratulate Miss Chiaraval- fotl. The city is well matisfied with “her spirit and effort. She was faced with competitors hailing from many parts of the country, and each con- testant had been a local winner over a large field. The experience meant much to this young girl, as such con- tests invariably do te everyone par- ticipating. MORE SCHOLARSHIPS The awarding of scholarships con- tinues to such effect that one is forced tb conclude that this is an age when the most talented in about every city have an opportunity to attain their heart’s desire through the medium of hard work, character and other factors that appeal to the organizations sponsoring the oppor- tunities. " The Yale club. having heard a few days ago regarding its scholarship holder. is followed by the New Brit- | ain College club. This organization has seletted Mim Frances Greco as the recipient of ity favor. Another New Britainite, Richard Porter, al- ready st Dartmouth, is one of two sterling students “tern there chosen io attend the Sorboane in Paris next man to install a lunch cart at Franklin Square and Pearl street, Not only was there a defeat for the hosts of beauty in connection with this development, but the lunch cart, instead of costing $14,000, will be worth only $6,000. For our own part, we had no ides that a lunch cart could be worth even that much. Thus the Standard Oil Company takes what it may regard as ade- quate revenge upon its opponents in the gasoline station venture. “What'll you have, a gasoline station or a lunch cart?” in effect was the ulti- matum handed to the embattied art lovers recently. Sundry aldermen and councilmen, wise to the ways of the werld, merely regarded this camoufiage and a heartiess bluff.

In this case, as in that of another, the secrecy @idn't stay put. The be- cret poll was published in this news- paper yesterday. Of course, #bme senator who doesn't believe in secrecy is suspected. There is a great to db about it—in the Senate—but nothing particular can be done about it. Reporters do not tell the sources of their information. BINGHAM FOR LENROOT ‘What particularly interested Nut- meggers in the confirmation of Ir- vine Lenroot, Wisconsin ex-senator, as & judge of the customs court at a salary of $12,000 a year for life, was the fact that 8enator Bingham veted for confirmation. Benator Walcott seems to have evaded the issue by not voting, &c- cording to the report. + One could scarcely expect Senator Bingham to do otherwise than vote | But scarcely was the victory against ‘l the straight Republican doctrine; the gasoline station won amid re- joicing—in which we took part— when the Standard Oil, which owns the plot, announced the alternative dispobal of the plot would go inte effect. Mr. Zazzero stepped forward for his permit without hesitation, and there we are. Getting the best of the Standard Oit Company, we just as difficult as it used to be. OUR “WARLIKE” HYMN At fairly recurrent intervals one hears a complaint—usually when some well known official breaks into in our national anthem are too varlik The words “bombs burst- ing in air and the rockets red glare” seem to grate upon the ears of some plous souls, who say such sentiments are entirely: out of step with the peacelike tendencies of the age. Sometimes the thing goes %o far as 10 mvoid singing parts of the national anthem; and occasionally, in patriotic exercises one does not find it used at all, “My Country, tis of Thee,” being substituted. SBuch doings naturally arouse the not get excited over the bomba burst- ing in air, particularly when it is re- membered that this was happening at the time the words of the anthem were written. Indeed, no other na- tional anthem written under such circumstances. Perhaps, when Fran- cis 8cott Key wrote his immortal lyrica he should have maintained & consistent restraint and should ,nenr have mentioned what was ec- eurring off Fort McHenry in the harbor of Baltimore while he was a prisoner on a British man o' war; hut he simply couldn't restrain him- |®elf wuite that much; and in one stanea he waxed quite insulting to the British crown. This stanza, by the way, is not often sung in even the most patriotic gatherings. We have no deubt that in mosne versiéns ©of the anthem it is omitted alto- gether, so touchy we have become about some matterh. The facts are that Francis Scett Key had no idea at the time that he was penning a national anthem. When he completed the stanzas he and his friends looked about for a tune on which to hang them, and curiously enough, hit upon an old English drinking song—thus accepts ing & tune from the enemy’'s ranks. American composers in those days were nonexistent, and the only good tunes came from overseas. There were no compunctions at all te ac- apparently being one way of turn- ing the artistic tables upon the ! gentlemen who were present in ships and on !and to ruin the land. The Biar Spangled Banner as we have it was sung for the first time as a commemorative ode of one the most of important victories of | American arms. It was given for the {first time a few days after the vic- tory in a theater in Baltimore, and from that point on swept the coun- ltry like the proverbial wildfire. "1‘here it met the test of the nation- al anthem by reaching into the hearts of the people and being ac- cepted as meaning home und country. something 1o tune selected has a pretty wide {1ange. there can bt no doubt ay to i"' effective presentation words. Great men wive in such mat- ters have termed it the world's most stirring national anthem; and when one comes down to the brass tacks {of the matter, exactly that is what !is wanted in an anthem of that type. The “Marselleise” remains war- like; #0 does he “Watch on the Rhine.” The British, with “God Bave the King." have one built around the \Central institution of the kingdom {and it is not warlike; but the Brit- iish have a multitude of supplemen- tary songs that mre not popular at peace gutherings. | | ' i take it, remains print about it—that certain phrases indignation of miany patriots who do | cepting & tune from the enemy, this | Although the | of the | {thus he joined with 32 other sfal- warts and helped to confirm Mr. Lenroot. The Wisconsin ex-senator had deen very active on behalt of Herbert Hoover at Kansas City. His regularity was “marked;” and he was an able worker for the good cause. For this reason, if for no other, he probably deserved something at the hands of a grateful administration. He got it, but there are voices that join in a discordant chorus Sema- tor Norris is one of these; indeed, he swings the baton when the Len- root Blues is played. Note the way the Nebraska insurgent handles Lenroot: “The power trust,” he said, “Nired Lenroét to help defeat the resolution of Sepator Walsh of Montana for an investigation of the power companies, or at least to prevent the senate making the investigation. Did they hire him because he was a lawyer? God bless you, no. Lenroot Inp to the time he left the senate never practiced in his life. He was not permitted to practice before the supreme court of his own state, “The power trust didn’t want a lawyer. They wanted him because he ‘was an ex-senator. The people of Wiscensin retired him to a lame duck. The power trust hired him at $20,000 fee because they thought that that might influence some United States senators. “At Kansas City, Lenroot did valu- able service for Mr. Hoover. And now we find him ascending the bench for life at $12,000 a year, not because he is a lawyer but because he had the favor of the leaders of his party am well as the power trust. With $20,000 of ‘power trust’ money jingling in his pockets, he mounts the bench for life. “I hepe the time will come when presidents do not pay their presiden- tial debts by placing men on the bench for life.” A MEAN RUMOR Ruor hes it that President Hoo- vtr in %0 dissatisfied with the tarift bill that he will not be greatly dis- eppointed It the debenture plan is included, %0 as to give him a chance 10 veto the entire apparatus.

K. T hatven't told many American stories in thin series but here is one that made me laugh when I heard it in the smoking roem of the Rer- engaria a few months ago. A colorcd man in the south sold a imule 1o another colored gentleman and all that remained was fqr the new owncr to pay over the dollars, But the latter thought he would like to see the mule in action down the village street. 8o it was decided that the old owner would “shoo” the mule down the wtreet after the prospective owner had taken up a stance a hundred yards away so0 that he could run up and recapture him, after watchinz his paces. The plan did not work out‘any too well for the mule, after being din- vatcheit down the street, ran first to the left and then to the right, col- liding with lamp-posts and finally being brought up with a wallop against the local Post Office build- ing. Blazing with rage the man who was going to buy the animal dashed 1up 1o the other and flatly asserted that the mule was as blind as a bat. “That mule ain't blind at all, at all. Massa Johnson,” said the seller. “What's wrong with that mule is that he just don’t cure a damn.” COLLID! Autemobile driven by Joseph Win- nick of 340 Chestnut street and Ed- ward P.

Says Herbert John Marks I used to believe it when I read all this stuff about New York. About what a terrible town it was. What a sink of iniquity and all that sort of stuff. Friends used to come back to Frog Hollow, after a visit to the big city, and go around with hushed j Whispers, saying. “Gosh, what a I!own! How do they ever stand the \pace!” and that sort of thing. They didn’t see beneath the surface as I 1dit when I came down for a visit. ‘WhY, there are more hicks in ty than there are in One day I was waik- ing down Broadway. A crowd had gathered at & corner. I pushed my way through, wondering what all the excitement was about. What do you think they were all gaping at? A guy was holding up & cop!
