I came down from South Norwalk on one of {ts suburban trains this morning, riding {n the last car, and didn't reach the Grand Central Station un- til thirty-two minutes after the locomotive got in.” “The reason the New York, New Haven and Hartford 1s running such long trains,” explained The Man Higher Up, “is because President Mellen wants to keep the cin» ders out of the eyes cf the passengers.

It became the rage in England and was prohibited there by Haward IV. Then the game was brought to this eountry and was alse made unlawful in several States here. But to avoid the Jew the esthusiasts added one more pin, making it ‘ten pins.” For many years the game was known as ‘ten pins’ and became eo popular that the ban against (t was removed.
