HOW To WEAR A CANE
A New Yorker suggests that there
'oughi’.‘ to be a. “school of canecarry-
ing," whereupon one of the depart~
mental editors of the Evening Mail
proceeds to illuminate the subject as
follows;
“Some mea are shockingly awk-
ward with their canes. They patter
along like the old man in “The Last
Mat," whacking the sidewalk, making
the pavement stones resound, although
they do not totter o'er the ground. It
is not, of course, good form to whack
the ground with the can in walking.
The cane may be dandlcd gracefully,
or embraced in a slightly affeCtionate
and plquaut manner. But under no cir-
cumstances must the ground be pound-
ed.’
The editor further explains that it
is improper to flirt. the clue forward
as one walks, particularly on a crowd-
ed street, because it menacss other
people's legs 'It should not be brand-
ished about at all, if one aims either
at keeping the peace or at “essential
grace and distinction." And if one
wants to be genuinely nifty, one will
wear onc's cane for the most part in
the approved manner of «Newport and
Tuxedo, which is to say held forward:
with the crook or handle downward
and the ferule up in the air; though
of what earthly use'a cane is when
worn in this fashion the editor doesn‘t
pretend to elucidate.
After this little lecture on good
low citizens except those dependent
on the cape as a crutch will be seen
slumping along and whacking the
that the New York Mall justly de-
plores,

then?" the reader may ask.
Well, what is a cane for?

OUR LATEST GUEST.
The Germans may question our neu-
trality, but we notice that when a
German sea raider is looking for a
good, safe neutral harbor in which to
take refuge from allied warships, it
bikes for an American port,

rich was. The government authorities
and private citizens thereabouts have
not welcomed it quite so eduslvely as.
they did the Eitel Friedrich, possib-
ly because the iKronprlnz hadn‘t sunk
any American merchantmon. But Capt.
Thierfelder shouldn‘t be blamed for
that failure. He explains, apologetical-

This charming young captain will
now, in all probability, repeat the eu-
tertainlng performances of. Captain
Thierichens. He will make known his
eagerness to get back to sea and re-
sume his raids on British, French and
neutral commerce. He will accept our
otlicial hospitality to the limit. He will
have the harmonies scraped off his
ships' bottom, the missing rivets re-
placed, the loose plates tighteuod,the
rust spots scraped and painted, the
engines repaired, the‘coal bunkers

A new dumping ground will be seen--

necticut turnpike.
Important and much-needed changes
were authorized by vote of the council
in the charter of the city af’Norwalk
last night. For some time Corporation
Gounsel William F. Tammany has
been working on this matter, and bus
drained 3 bill, which will be presented
the legion-turn and which will. amend
several sections of the present clutter.
Just what. these changes ealihyrl 111l
shown elsewhere in Tho Sentinel to—
day in detail.
All is not well, it would seem, ho-l
tween the ofiiciala of the board oil
charities. A delegation of lndlgnanti
grocers were in attendance at the
meeting last night. to protest against.
what they considered “discrimination"
in (the dividing of charity-orders for
groceries among the many grocery-
mcu of the city. Friction between
members of the board was also
brought out last night, and some la-
tereatiug revelations, concerning the
workings of that department were
shown.
A petition was presented the coun-
cil asking that the time for the pay.

October 1. Two payments, argued
the petitioners, would be very much;
easier for Norwalla taxpayers, who, in
View of the “hard times" and the i‘high
lanes" felt. the burden quits heavily.
The matter has been under consid~
mission by Councflnun John D. Milne
for some time. Commotion counsel
Tammany informed lilr. Mil-c that ac;
cording to the charter it would be 11-
lcgal to make two payments of taxes.
it was suggested by Councilmanl
John D. Milne that the time for tax
payment be extended to July 1. Thing, !
also, was declared as being not ea-i
actly legal. Councilman Barry W.
Mather objected to the time extension
as a “strict. violation" of the charter. ‘
"if ever we make mistakes," declared
Councilman-Robert bi. Wolfe. “let‘s:
make this one and extend the time.”
Mr. Milne wanted to know if. the
council would be legally authorized to
rebate the 9 per cent. interest charged
to those taxpayers, who purposely neg;
lected to pay until the convenient time i
of July 1. According to the statute
this could
only be done in cases where poverty
was proven, "We might all be consid-
ered poor, at this time," was Mr.
Mllne‘s opinion.
At any rat'e the time for paying thel
taxobills was voted extended to July.i
1st, after which date the 9 per cent.
interest will be charged. Henry J.
Hipson. committee on finance,- ex-
plained that due to the extension of
the time for paying the tax City Tress
urer Wilfred Bodweil would have to~
borrow more money. costing the city
about $4,000 interest. but whereas the
l
over 4 per cent. and the interest
charged for overdue taxes was 9 per
cent, the time extension would prob-
ably be cheaper after all. What some
of the councilman wanted to know
was: Even supposing the action 01
the council in extending the time was
technically illegal, who is going to,
kick? ' 1
A number of grocery men were in
attendance . to protest strenuously
against George B. Raymond, 11 member
of the board of charities, and also is
member of the firm of Raymond 8r:

majority of the business of the charity

Figures were substituted showing”:
that whereas aglarge number oi the:

no more than about $15 worth, Ray

$100 worth of business,
ExCouncilmau William Thompson,
of the New York Grocery, was that
spokesman of the protesting grocers, '
He said it would be only fair that the?
charity orders be distributed equally
between all of the groceryistores and
no favoritism shown. The council
passed a motion to this effect.
