MUST MEASURE HIGH. Message to Men in Shop Talk by Rev. C. H. Ricketts. The Measuring Line was the subject of the address by Rev. C. H. Ricketts of the Greeneville Congregational church at the Richmond radiator plant under Y. M. C. A. auspices Wednesday noon. Solos were rendered by Mrs. L. O. Potter. Rev. Mr, Ricketts spoks as follows: Lot us remember that the highest positions are open to the men who measure up to the requirements. The heads of great corporations are on the outlook for young men capable of taking great responsibilities. It is stated that a great concern in New York is on the outlook for a superin- tendent for whom a salary of $25,000 stands waiting, but it is stated that they cannot find the man. The Gen- eral Hlectric spends thousands of dol- lars every year in the attempt to dis- cover and train young men for pos tions higher up that are always open, but they must measure up to the re- quirements. It is perfectly plain that it is for the best interest of firms to put a premium on ability, and it is for the highest interest of all workmen to get into that condition and keep in that condition that shall measure high. Again, observation shows us that men measure themselves. When a young man starts out in practical life he asks himseif these questions: What am I fitted for? Whot kind of work do I like best? In settling these ques- tions he does two things: First, he measures the calling he has under consideration—he seeks to find out what sort of ability it needs to be suc- cessfully followed: secondly, he takes the yard stick and tape measure and applies them rigidly to himself to see if his stock In trade comes up to these requirements. Before a man builds a house he uses the measuring line on his bank account. Thus as he stands face to face with any of life's duties and responsibilities, he tries to deter- mine how far he measures up to them. Finally, people measure one another, Sometimes they do it in a good, and sometimes in a bad spi The boys | and girls, men and wome | who make | good are usually measured in a sym- pathetic spiri But, unfortunately, | there are people who deligh uring a person. when is dc wn. Yet | his uilt, themselve: standard of excellence. This being the case every man ought to see to it that he measures high. Nobody is strong enough to defy public opinion. | But everybody can so live as to com- | pel the tape measure to make sound reckonings. This can be done by cul- tivating a vigorous body, a sound mind and an excellent character. Niantic People Afraid to Invest. Walter W. Warren of New Britain, who has been at the Niantic house for several weeks endeayoring (o induce Niantic capitalists to put their money and energy into the manufacture of several small household articles at the Luce factory there, has decided that the people there are not looking for such enterprise, so he left Wednes. day morning for Milford, where he intends tp remain for some time. Mr. Warren undoubtedly has some very good articles, but local people have lost so mueh in the past few years that they are now afraid of any new enter- prise, NOTHING OF VALUE TAKEN FROM COTTAGES. Gales Fery Owners investigated Where Breaks Had Been Made. H. A. Wulf, Otto E. Wulf, F. M. Hilton, Lewls' R. Church, lsaac S, Jones, A. M. Kennedy, J. Frank Corey and George E. Pitchier went down to Gales Ferry Wednesday morning to in- vestigate the damage which might have been done to their cottages there, JYhich it was reported had been broken nto, It was found that all of the cottages with the exception of O. E. Wulf's and George E. Pitcher's had been entered. An effort was made to get into Mr. Wulf’s, judging from the scratches around the knob of the door, but tno attempt had been abandoned, appar- ently. Mr. Wulf found that his cottage the footprints of someone who had proceeded from his cottage to the road. It was one who had walked through the mud which had frozen. As the last rainstorm was on Sunday, it is believed that the breaks were made elther that night or on Monday. The prints indi- cated a fairly smail foot, about a No. 7, and rubbers had been worn. In Mr. Wulf's opinion the damage was done by someone in a spirit of pure wanton- ness and perhaps by one who had been drinking. The footprints in the mud looked as if the fellow's walk was un- certain, or else he walked that way to avoid the puddles. H. A. Wulf found that his cottage had ‘been _thoroughly ransacked. Drawers had been pulied out and the contents thrown on the floor. The only thing missing was an old mac intosh., The tableware was untouch- ed. Playthings of Mr. Wulf's daugh- ter were taken from their repository and scattered about. Entrance was National Guard. BRANDEGEE OFFERS BOOKS.

Corey found that a sash had been torn away frdm one of the win- dows in his cottage, entrance being gained in that way. Some canned stuff had been taken, but there were only a few cans in the cottage. As in the other cottages, the place was gen- erally ransacked. At Robert Wild’s cottage there were taken two pillows and some bed cloth- ing. Mr. Wild lives in Jewett City. Mr. Hilton did not miss anything of value, although the interior of the cot- tage was turned topsy-turvy and the owners of the other cottages reported the same condition of things. Postmaster Samuel Brown found that his cottage on the shore had been entered. The marauder had feasted on a can of sardilnes, which he had brought from somewhere else, as it was not the brand Mr. Brown kept, and some crackers found on the srelves. Isaac S. Jones found that someone had evidently spent the night in his cottage. One of the beds so in- dicated. Sheriff Brown and Deputy Sheriff Martin of New London went to the Ferry in the former's automobile on Wednesday morning and looked over the premises. In Postmaster Brown's cottage there were a number of cigarette butts on the floor, which might indicate that there was more than one person con- cerned in the breaks. The cottage of Misses Fllen and Lucy Geer shared the fate of the others, but nothing of value was taken. $7,500 DAMAGE IN NEW LONDON FIRE Two Houses on Bradley Street Badly Damaged, Fire which started about 11.30 Wed- nesday night in the house 33 Bradley street, New London, owned by Hilda Beaudry, now serving a year in the county jall for keeping a house of ill fame, did $7,600 damage to that house and the lodging house of Mr. and Mrs, George Beck adjoining.

Berlin, Dec. 10—Prince Von Beu- low’s references to the relations of the United States and Germany is one of the chapters of the book on “Germany Under the Reign of William 11" to be issued this week in which he deals with “Germany Policy” show how much the former imperial chancellor valued the freindship of the Ameri- can government and people. He says in part: “What I said at that period in the Reichstag in this connection seems to have been proven, namely: “From the point of view of sen- sible policy there is no reason why Germany and the United States should not be on the best of terms. I do not see any point where German and American interests clash nor in the fu- ture do ] see any point where the lines of our development should cross each other in an inimical way. We can say it calmly—in no other land in the last century has America found bet- ter undersianding or more just rec- ognition than in Germany.” WON'T ATTEND THE LUNCH TO ALFONSO. Caillaux Sent Spanish King Printed Message in 1911. Paris, Dec. 10.—The Figaro says that M. Caillaux, the new i finance, will not be present with the ohter ministers at President Poincare's lunch to King Alfonso today. When M. Caillaux was premier in 1911, the p: per explains, he became impatient over the dilaatory tactics of Spain in the Morocean negotiations and told the Spanis ambassador that if the king did not give in, the watch on Spanish an- archists would be relaxed on this side of the Pyrenees. The ambassador reported the pre- mier’s words to the Spanish foreign office, and their import was apparent to King Alfonso, and the other mem- bers of the royal family, who were ex- ceedingly indignant. Dominicans Not Yet Satisfied. to the Deminican repblic to observe the election next Monday has served only partiaily to clear up the misunder- standing resulting from the sending of the American officials.
