WESTERLYS Bennie Benson, a familiar character in_ Westerly and well known to “the police of this and surrounding”towns, hid the police of New London giess-' ing when he suddenlly s he was about to be arrested and for several. minutes had the two officers who were in hot pursuit groping around in the dark in the vicinity of the railroad station. So quickly did he zet out of sight of Patrolman AMichael O'Neil and Special Officer George Vincent that they were com- pletely baffled. The Gilt Edge train was drawing in- to the station at the time and instead of-trring to sidetrack the train he suddenly thought that he would side- : his pursuers. _He carelessly ent into one of the Pullmans and < one of the fine chairs with an air £ one who didn’t care if anything ipened or not. One of the officers pened to look into the car and saw ¢ ‘man stretched out, to all appear- ences in perfect content with all the world. After the two scouts had cvercome surprise they entered the train 2o ced BGennie under_arrest for having made a disturbance in the bag- gage room of the station. Once last summer Patrolman O'Neill had occa- sion to take Benson from the train, and he did it with such force that hie offered no resistance when he recognized who had hold of him, and acquiesced when told that ihere was a little hard plank upon which he ‘might rest his head for the night at the police stdtion, which wasn’'t as comfortable as a stuffed chair in one of the New Haven road’s fine cars but would have to do under the circum- stances. The School Arts Magazine for-Feb- ruary has _been received at the public Tibrary. The following pupils of the ‘Woesterly schools are among those who have been named as having received awards for art work in -ember: Second prize to Minnie Chicardino and to Fred Dotolo, and a third prize to Michael Ferando, all of the Pleas- ant Street school. A fourth prize was awarded Violet Greenway, while hon- orable mention was given Nellle Dower and Harold Rowan Special prizes went to Josephine Alibama- monde, Hiram Barber, Walter Brown, Theresa Ferare, Alexander Passetti, and Antonio Ruissi. The Evangel, a religious paper pub- lished weekly at Pittsfield, Mass., has the following reference commendable 1o the foreign element in the town and is one of the explanations why those of foreign birth are pushing many of the indifferent American born people out of the way and are winning high positions and public offices: . A lttle Italian lad was noticed in the juvenile department of the library at Westerly, R. I, carefully searching the books. When asked what ook ‘was looking for, he replied in a hushed, timid voice, ‘“Beowulf.” Tt was a book mentioned by his teacher which would illustrate something In the school lesson in English. The li- brary t came to the help of the little fellow and he went off with his book. “The assistant told us that the Ttal- ian children were notably incloned to ask for helpful and serious books, and were quick to respond to suggestions iof teachers in the choice of helpful reading, while the American children were more disposed to seek and be satisfled only by more entertaining and less Imstructive werks of fiction.” Westerly has been having one of the coldest spells experienced this winter, the mercury dropping to 14 degrees above zero Thursday morning accord- ing to the registering thermometer owned by Dr. E. R. Lewis. The doctor says that the night before Christmas following the snow storm of the day, the mercury fell to 8 degrees above zero, making Wednesday night and Thursday morning the coldest for the past six weeks. On the night of December 9th, Jan- uary Sth, 13th, and 14th. the thermom- eter registered 15 degrees above, and ©on January 9th it remained at that nark throughout the day. The cold- est night in November was on the 4th when the mercury drupped to 18 de- grees above., Henry P. Walton, owner of the old Seventh-Day mill building on thé West Side, which was among the build- joge in that vicinity damaged by the recent fire, has been having men lay- ing a floor over a part of the build- ir~ preparatory to demolishing the cracked walls and then rebuilding.

Millions of dollars will be saved the government by the use of a newly dé- vised stamp printing machine. The apparatus is scheduled te turn out & mile of postage stamps every five mi utes. It was desisned by Benjamin Stickney, says the Washington corre- spondent of the New York World. There will be a saving of 57 per cent in_the production cost of stamps. Phis new machine, which prints, glms, dries, perforates and either cuts into sheets or winds into coils 12,000 stamps in one minute, will save the government several million dollars in the cost of stamps alone in the course of a few years. The bureau of engrav- ing and printing now turns out 40,000,- 000 stamps, daily, but with the use of | the new machine and because of the increased demand it will be able to manufacture manys more millions a day. 3 Previously it has been necessary to wet stamp pape to get an imRression from the engraved ink-covered plate, but Mr. Stickney has made it possible to do away with the hand-wetting process and to substitute dry printing. Mr. Stickney’s invention will revolu- tionize plate printing, which heretofore has Involved much manual labor and time. New stamps can be printed perfectly from a royy of paper at high speed. J. K. Ralph, director of the bureau, foreseeing heavy business after the passage of the postal savings and par- cels post acts. directed Mr. Stickney to plan, if possible, a machine for pro-' ducing the vast number of stamps re- quired. This machine is considered,a remarkable irvention because many countries have tried unsuccessfully to get such an apparatus. It is believed that, with the saving in possible enconomy by further machine development, low in tim Music And Applause. There is music everywhere just now, carols -in the street, concerts in playing the game with hvmns. But cost of stamp production and some | penny postage may fol- | the halls, and even the street organ is | to | § there Is a question sét in 'the West- minster Gazette as to whether you should applaud - when you like your fe. I am assyred that M. Kubelik distinguished performers are discoaraged and fall below th at* State concerts where applause is forbidden. They cannot do the trick without the “hand.” And yet thereis the curfous instance of the cathedral and the * sing.”’ ou do not applaud (with hand claps) when the anthem is finished a Westminster Abbey, and there isnev er a sound of the smacked hand when St. Paul’s has sent the music of Christ- mas round the dome. Theman of mu- sle does not clap hands, 1 think. He listens, in his soul. And personally when I have heard music I have no wish to malke the absurd noise on my hands— only the wish to g0 out, very quietly, and thank God for it. Sir Laurence Gomme regards muslc as an aid to work. He relates thatat the beginning of his official caveer he used to add up huge columns of fig- ures for statistical purposes by the simple process of doing the task to a Gregorian tune, and that he was always correct in his totals. There are probably not many brain workers of this order; but manual laborers have long shared in the opinion of Adam Bede that “men’s muscles move bet- ter when their souls are making merry music. Dr. Johnson was annoved to find in the Hebrides that the strokes of the sickle were timed by the modulations of 2 song in which the harvesters joined. In the days of the handlooms | most weavers crooned over their work. Dairymaids used_to sing on the milk- ing-stool, not only to lighten their la- bors, bui also because the cOws were held to yield better milk when cheered Dy a tune. To this day in Toulouse— where so many fine singers have grown —it is a recognized custom in some trades to pay the men at a higher rate when they are not allowed to sing at their work. There_are two ways of regarding music. You may regard it as an en- tertainment, in which case you will applaud. Or you may regard it as a sacrament— and_be silent. The lat- ter was the way of Sir Thomas Browne. “iZven that vulgar and tavern-musick,” he wrote, “which makes one man mer- ry, another mad strikes in me a deep, fit’ of devotion, and profound contem- plation of the first composer. There is something in it of divinity more than the ear discovers; it is an hier- oglyphylcal and shadowed lesson of the whole world, and’ creatures of God; such a melody to the ear, as the whole world well understood, it is a sensible nfi ‘of t_hdnt sh‘:;mnm ny which bvxula‘-ifltmd the under: ding.
