There can be no qAestion but what they do make a strong and convincing argu- ment once they get a chance to appeal. but it Is in competition with others which force/their appeal that they often suffer from méglect. Thus iz can be readily understood that tifre is good sound reasoning back of tfe decision of the New England Ho- tex asfoclation at ite recent meeting in #otlng to raise a fund of $300,000 for the purpose of advertising New England to tourists, From Cos Cob to Eastport or from Burlington to Nantucket there is a di- WEEK ENDING DEC. 17th, 1921 11,702 SAFETY IN THEATRES, was sta that If thera|VeTsity of attractions that cannot fail o ba one theater or motion|to Satisty the most exacting.

With motor vehicles and good roads New England Is the va- cation ground of large humbers from al- most all parts of the country. You see the Alabama, Missonri, Tliinols and even Califorala cars n{ zled with those ot nearer states “doing” New England, and it is the aim of the hotel men to im- pross upon such tourists and others the natural beautles of New England, and to direct their ‘attention to many of the points of interest that might otherwise be overlooked. It is all of courss with a view to do- ing a bigger business. They figure that that | they have the equipment and attractions |and in wanting to put forth an appeal that will vie with those of othér sec- tions there can be no question but what they have agreed upon the most satls- factoty medium In resorting to adver- tising.

My dislike for them is old, dating from my childhood, when I lived with an aunt who had four of them. I had to get up in the middle of cold winter nights to see whether they were comfortable and as they slept In the woodshed it gave me & feeling not very much akin to love.” “The young folks of today don't know what a cold winter is,” chuckled Wilkin- son. “But speaking of cats, I have learn- ed that it's best to look around before Yyou comment on them. That cat of my cousin’s was so uncanny it gives me the creeps just to think of it.” “Go ahead,” sald the out-of-town cus- tomer. “What could it do: tell time or spell your name with cards?”’ “Oh, this wasn't a trained cat.” said Wilkinson. “That is what made it o amazing that it should do such a trick. It was sitting in an easy chair at the other end of the living room most of the evening and nobody paid much attention to it. It was only when it stretched and made a noise yawning that Della spoke of it. She said that was 8 valuable ani- mal, given to her after it had won prizes, at four shows—given her by a nephew of a governor. She told me what it was valued at and seemed to pride herself on the creature's pedigree as much as though it were her own. It got on my nerves to hear anybody rave so over such a very homely cat and I spoke up very boldly And made her mad, T'll bet.” “I wouldn't have cared about that' | smiled Wilkinson. “But when I finished telling Della that I thought it the ugli- est and most stupld cat I ever saw, that creature got up slowly, jumped off the chair and, coming toward me, sprang on to the arm of my chair and raising its paw struck me three times right across the mouth. Being satisfied with the pun- ishment, it got down and walked away. ‘What do you know about that? Y CAT customed. “1 can't answer, said the out-of-town “However, T'll bet that it %as just playing with your face as it might with anything else that was moving. Makes me think of what one of those cats of my aunt’s did. We used to hang up our stockings on Christmas eéve and find in them all sorts of crazy things the next morning. “Will you ever forget it?” said Wil- kinson. “The jokes we used to put up on each other were great sport, at least in our hovse.” s “They Were with us, t00,” said the out- of-town customer, “We had three grown folk and six chilgren in the house and we always hung up stockings for the four cats as well. There was one big gray cat Dby the name of Pete that was the smart- est of the lot, and I remember that that particular day he wa sthe only one that turned up for the celebration. The other cats had gone off somewhere and we Were t00 excited to hunt them up.” “There's mothing like the thrill of Christmas morning,” said Wilkinson. I feel it even nowada “Theré was a ball in every cat's stock- ing,” went on the out-of-town customer. “But a cousin who had visited us had sent a little box by mail to Pete. He was _her favorite cat and she sald the others werem't deserving of her atten- tion. We had put the box in Pete’e own stocking, which looked exactly like the stockings of the other cats excent that they all had the cats’ names on them. I know you won't believe me when I tell you that when Pete came in he stood only a moment looking about before he walked straight up to his own stocking and stuck his nose in, pulling out the box that had come by mail.” “Come, now, go éa protested Wil- kinson. “You can’t make me believe that that cat could read. I'm afraid I don’t believe a word of it.” “Well, there was nothing else to guide Pete in his choice,”” said the out-of-fown customer, “unless perhaps he was influ- enced to some minor extent by the fact the box contained two little mice made out of catnip that could be smelled ten feet away."—Exchange. Famous Trials MAJOR GENERAL BUEGOYNE. Do you go to church? What if everyome who did not go to church this Sunday were to be arrested and put on _trial? - Impossible! So it seems, but less than 100 years ago. in 1816, Sir Montagu Burgoyné was arrest- ed and put on trial for not attending church. Just three years Dafore the birth of Queen Victoria of England this barenet of Sutton Park was arraigned before a common jury for default of a law passed at the time of Queen Eliza- both. The plaintiff was Rev. Dr. Bdward Drake Free, the rector of Sutton, who appeared before Baron Graham at the Bedfordshire Lent assizes dressed in his canonical robes and prepared to take part in the conduct of his own case. The court room wag crowded to suffocation os Dr. Free addressed the learned judge. It was not his idea to press the case, he said, as the d-fendant had showed his return to reasoning by once more attend- ing church on the 7th of April last, but the taken by’ his legal advisers had compelied him to come forward disagree- able as it was. He felt also, he said, | that he was vindicating the cause of his brother clergy throughout the country | and hoped that this case would be a warning to others who were erring and never attended divine service. Baron Graham | plaintift must the case | wholly by himseif, or Jeave it entirely in | the hands of his counsel. Dr. Free then | replied: “If that is the law, I must abide { by it every then said that the | either conduet by 1 have confidence in the ability of my counsel.” i Mr. Daniels then opened ihe case by reading the Jaw upon wh the aetion was brougit, “that all yersons 'in Eng- {land absenting themselves from divine { worship, either at their own parish | church."or some other place appointed for public prayer. for ome month, for- feited a sum of £100." son for Dr. Free can be explained tional Perhaps the rea- bringing up the case in the foliowing addi- ause—"this penalty to be divided into three parts, one of which went to qieen. another to the poor of the parish and the third to the informer.” Gene Burgoyne was charged with | being absent from divine service in the { parish church of Sutton for 19 months, | 1 Whereby he came llable to a fine of $100 | & month, amounting in the whole to $1,900. Witnesses for the complainant were then called out—Mrs. Margaret Johnson and John Northfield. Mrs. John- son deposvd that she had been at church for Sunday during the time charged against the accused, but she had never seen him there during all that time. She also dep him on the riding his horse. Norihfield corroborated her evidence, adding that he also often saw Sir Mon- tagu “coursing.” These two witnesses were then exam- ined. Mrs. Johnson stated that she had been a servant to Dr. Free for a period of four years but was not long before dis- charged. Northfield admitied that he was the parish clerk of Sutton. Sergeant Blosset closed the case and said that it was entitled to his client. as no evidence for the defense had been offered of Sir Montagu living in the parish of Sutton Baron Graham then said that this was a | mere oversight and upon the recall of the | witnesses they proved the fact alluded to. | Sergeant Blosset, appealing to the court, | said that the motive was not to champion | the cause of the clergy of England that | Dr. Free had taken up the case. He showed that although the clause had re- mained unrepealed it had been, literally speaking, dead for 150 years. Its opera- tions, he said, were only meant for the time when the Church of England was in | danger, and then only to apply to Cath- olics and’ dissenters. Settling down in fine style to his speech, he declared that he would show that the evidence of the witnesses was impossible, for he could prove that the plaintiff had neglected his diocesical du- ties to the extent that the parish church in question was closed and no servieg performed at all during the months of June, July, August and part of Septem- ber. So far from the doctor being a champion of the church, he had recetved Foley’s Honey and Tar 1S A TIME-TRIED REMEDY that can be relied upon to get rid of coughs and colds that lead to serious illness if neglected.

He show- ed that the hours of the plaintiffs at- tending church were so uncertain that the parishioners never knew themselves at what time service would be held. Three more fatal blows he Zealt at the prose- cution in that the laws of Elizabeth in auestion added that one need not attend church if service was read privately at the home ; second, that the same law said that if the defendant could assign a rea- son for not attending church he could not be held, and. last, that if the person charged confessed himself a faithful son of the Church of England he became ex- onerated. For the first it was proved that Dr. Hughes had read service in the house of Burgoyne. The second was that he was a general in the British service and had previously been stationed at Gibraltar, the third, he had done before the bishop of the diocese. Two witnesses: oroved part the church had been closed during the time charged. A doctor and a nurse corroborated the evidence as to the fail- ing health, and there could be no ques- tlon as to the word of the bishop him- self. Baron Graham then summed up the defense and remarked to the jury that no even and liberal mind could have gonstrued a practically dead law in the Manner in which the plaintifft had done. Tho jury without hesitation found for the defendant. ot guilt READ YOUR CHARACTER By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1821 The Ear for Maosie The story is told of Jesuit, famous as music, that he cou ference between and “Killa an old v_tell the Save the King” heard them “God when he That is quite possible.

It is rather curious that heirs were born to both Lord Jellicoe and to Earl Halg within a few weeks while the war, which brought them fame and hohors to pass on, was still in prog- ress.

The Nobel Prizes—The fact that the Nobel chemistry prize has been awarded to the German inventor of poison gas has led to some criticism of the Swedish Academy of Sciences, which is charged with the task of selecting the recipient of this particular Nobel distinction. But Dr. Nobel made it a condition in establishing the five prizes that they should be award- &l to those Who, in the course of the previous year, had “rendered to humanity the greatest service.” It would appear, therefore, that Professor Nernst's poison £as achievement in 1915 had nothing to do with the honor conferred on him in 1921. Anyhow. his poison gas is appar- ently hopelessly outclassed by “lewisite.” the latest thing of its kind, so named af- ter its American inventor, Professor Lew- which is guaranteed to penetrate any mask and to destroy by burning its vic- tims both inside and outside, and is claimed to be “the main organ of se- curity in future warfare.” — London Chronicte.

Ot Course Not. Illustrative of the time, an officlal who has much to do with the dispensing of charity tells the following interesting story of an occurrence not So long ago: There was a poor family, the father of vhich was a wanderer and of not much account. There were six children and the mother was left most of the time to provide for them. The family had been getting help out of the town poor fund. One day a son in the family got into trouble. The sheriff and a town repre- sentative drove to the home. The boy was away. The mother seemed anxious that the law should have its course with the son. and to aveid an extra trip and expense the sheriff suggested: “Well, then, T'll not come out after him when he comes back, but you bring him in.” “Why, I can’t bring him In now,” ex- plained the woman. “Our machine's broke."” THEATRICAL INJUNCFION HEARING ON FRIDAY New Haven, Conn., Dec. 20.—A re- straining order obtained by the Shubert Theatre Company from Judge FE.
