PATRIOTISM‘
Judge and Christian
Swartz Help Junior
M a s o n s Celebrate
Patriots’ Day
At a. regular weekly meeting of
the De Molay order of Junior Mas-
cr‘s held in the Masonic Temple of
Old Well Lodge on South Cain street
last evening, Judge Nehemiah Can~
ace and Christian Swartz. past com-
mander o.’ the Grand Army of the
lepu‘ulic of Connecticut spoke to the
menu-013 in celebration of Patriot's
Day. May 1. After the regular busi-
ness of the meeting Master Counsel—
lor Charles Wicke, introduced Judge
Candee. Mr. Candee said that he
was glad to have the opportunity to
speak to the members of De Malay.
"As I look into your faces," he sail:
"l convmce myself still further that
all this that one team about this
Country going to raid is idle talk.”
He declared that the day. Patriot's
day. was a solemn occasion to all
citizens of America.
"True patriotism is shown not on-
ly in war. No indeed. It some
times requires more courage to dis-
play patriotism in peace that on the
bloodiest field of battle. To stand
by the laws of a country even though
a huge number strongly resists. to
be at all times obedient to the sta-
tutes of a nation. these all require
valor and characterize a. good citi-
zen. Be obedient at all times. re—
spect your flag and the Constitution
at all times even though the obliga-
tions at times may seem unfair.
"Pointing to the American flag.
the speaker said that in each fold.
he could" visualize the deeds of fora
mcr patriots, hear the hoof beats of
Paul Rcvere‘s horse and could imag-
ine the deeds of valor which have.
existed all along in the history of
our country.
“The aim of our country is and
always should be. as President
Roosevelt once said. to have citizens.
every one of whom should be 100
‘per cent Americans. A bill restrict-
ing immigration to America. which
may be of good judgment, has been
passed so that the principles of our
government may be retained
all those within our shores with the
proper co-operatlon of our growing
the
honest pursuit of party principles to-
ward which each man may have his
own opinion. our county will grow
in importance."
Christian Swartz. the next speaker.
as Master Counsellor \V‘icke, intro-
duced him. "the young old man of
the G. A. R.. dwelt mainly on the
Civil \Yar and its call to the patriots
of the country. Min Schwartz describ-
Battle of Brothers and described in
between North and South over the
race problem. He retold affairs as
when he, as a. boy of 16 years of
age. rallied to the cause of the
Union. The theme of his address
was "Patriotism," which subject he
succeeded in impressing deeply upon
the members present.
After the address of Commander
Swartz. some, patriotic steriopticon
slides consistent with the occasion
were shown by “Dad" Thomas 0.
Taylor of the De Molay advisory
board. These were greeted with
much enthusiasm by the De _Molays
an triotic songs were sung.
The question of a coach for the
De Malay baseball team was brought
up at the meeting and after much
discussion it was dediced to leave
the matter in the hands of “Dad"
Taylor and Ellis- Howard of the De
Molay branch. . These men Will
make known their selection at next
week's meeting. Practice Will be
held tomorrow afternoon on the
\Vicke lot in East Norwalk.
Charles Hendricks.;head of the De
Molay patrol team and a member of
the AdVisory Board,~next_ announced
that the play,"‘Aunt Abigail and the
boys" which will be put on by mem-
' De Malay patrol team,
bers of the

tine Bishop Speaks
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. May 2.——-
The chief interest of the; 850 dele-
gates to the Methodist Episcopal
General Conference. in session here
centers today on the official an-
nouncemems regarding the commit-
tee of five which carry to \Vashing-
ton the conference‘s resolution. pass-
ed unanimously yesterday against
any modification of the Eighteenth
Amendment or the \‘olstead en—
forcement law.
The names of three lay delegates
nominated yesterday to the corn-
mittce with Bishops Nicholson of
Chicago and Leonard of San Fran-
cisco will be presented for approval
and a. date for their departure will
probably be set.
The resolution followed sharp at-
tacks by two delegates upon Presi-
dent Nicholas Murray Butler of Co-
lumbia University for his position
on the prohibition law in a speech
in New York. Later a. despstch
from New York's Dr. Butler refusal
of an invitation extended by Dr.
(‘larence True “'ilson of the Board
of Temperance and public morals
to present his views to the confer-
ence.
On a. program for this afternoon
when the general conference is not
in session. are mission and educa-
tional center meetings at which
Bishop \V’. P. Thlrkield are Mexico
will speak on Mexico and Rev. C. E.
Vermilyea. on “The Home Missions
Council" and Dr. J. N. C. Coggin on
"Prohibition and the Negro Race."
Dr. Clarence T. Wilson will discuss
the political situation in \V’ashlng-
ton.
At the session this morning Wil-
liam 1". Oldham. Bishop of the
)icthodist Episcopal Church of
Bucnos Aircs. South America de-
clarcd:
“The world is safe in the hands of
men who know God."

This morning at 8:30 the
session opened with the devotional
period led by Bishop Oldhaxn. ’Dr.
George Miller of Panama led in
prayer. and a Spanish member of
the conference announced the clos-
ing hymn!
Bishop Oldham spoke briefly from
certaip words of Jesus in which he
emphasized the value to the world
of men of spiritual vision.
“Young people are restless," said
the Bishop. “and some older people
are inclined to feel disturbed about
it. From Louisville have come cer—
tain pronouncements. but these are
the things that some older men have
been thinking all the time. and yet
we need the jogging they give us.
Thank God for the youth. They are
asking for consideration for women
and children and others less fortu-
nate. That is what is wanted,
Thank God young people. go to it.
A revival has already begun.
“But what we need. however. are
gnen who know God. One man re-
fused to read a book written by any
who does not know God. Every man
who leads should know God and
should consecrate his powers to the
service of God. The safe leaders of
the world are those who are satu-
‘ratcd with the idea of God. Vitalized
by Him. permeated by Him. Men
who express world opinions should
know Him. andallc should be, in
them. bubbling over, then the world
is safe. For the hope of the world
is in spiritual leadership."
The morning devotional service
will be broadcast by Station \VBZ,
\Vestern Electrid. Springfield, every
day for the month, at 8:30. except-
ing on Sunday.
There are 856 delegated in the
conference. and they come from all
over the world. wherever there is
a. Methodist Episcopal Conference.
It is of interest to note that the dele-
gates sing in their own language. and
repeat the Apostles‘ Creed and the
Lord’s Prayer likewise in their own
language. So there may be a. di-
versity of tongues but one spirit and
they know each other and under~
stand each other because of the com-
mon sentiment and common devo-
tion.

Members of the local Post of the

Follies Girl Claims Sl‘ie

Four former Norwslk school boys

$500,000. personal damage suit
brought in New York City by Helene
Jesmcr, former Greenwich Village
Follies beauty, against Philip Morg-
an Plant. one of the \hoirs to the
Plant millions and son of hirs.
William Haywood of New York.
The suit grows out of an automo-
bile accident which occurred early
in. the morning of Novmebcr 1,
1920. near Hunter's Island bridge.
Pclham Bay park. when a machine
driven by Plant and in which Miss
Jesmer was a passenger. crashed
into a. tree. The other occupants of
the car were four Harstrom school
students. Norman L. Husscy of St.
Louis, David Calhoun also of Si.
Louis. Edward Hershy of St. PauL.
and Chester Morehead of Chicago.
Hussey sustained contusions of the
back and Calhoun and I-Iershy were
badly shaken up. Morehead was
uninjured.
Plant on the witness stand yes-
terday said that he, Miss Jesmer.
Edward Hershy and Chester More-
head. started out from_ New York en-
routc to New Maven. on the day of
the accident.
“At, Norwnlk.’ he said. “we left
Hersliy. “'0 had a picnic lunch on
the way without any drinks. Upon
returning we picked up Hershy at
Xorwalk and two other friends.
David Calhoun and Norman IIusscy."
When questioned regarding the
action of the party just prior to the
accident. Plant said.
“Miss Jesmer was kneeling on
the front seat facing the four boys.
She was teaching them to 81113.
‘Snap Your Fingers at Care.’ That
interfcrred with my driving and’ I
asked her to cut. it out."
Plant also said that he did not
drive at more than 25 miles an hour
during the trip.
That the party was‘ a. merry one
was the, assertion of HerseY. W110
took the stand yesterday: He said
he was still friendly} with his form-
er chum and came from his home
in St. Paul to help him win the
case.

With Two Young-

Auto Saves Them
W. F. Tait of Rosc’oe street got
the thrill that only comes once in
a life time last night and today Mr.
Tait is happy because his children
are safe and his automobile is just
as good as ever. In addition to giv-
two hundred persons who crowded
Wall street, also received a. thrill.
Shortly before dusk. Mr. Tait with
his two children. Gladys. aged four,
and Marjorie, thr , drove up be-
fore the Benodlc News store in
‘Wall street. Mr. Tait leaving the
youngsters in the achine. went into
the store to buy some candy for
them.‘ Perhaps Mr. Tait stayed in
the store longer that he should
have, and his children as tots of
their age have the habit of. became
restless. They played around with
each’other in the front seat and in
some way Giady's foot touched the
emergency brake and the car started
down the street.
A trolley car. coming in the op-
posite direction. unaware that the
machine was without a. pilot. was
creeping upon the runaway automo-
bile. Fortunately. hownver. the ma-
chine swerved sharply to the right
and “Bob" Tenny‘s machine. which
was parked about 100 feet from
Benedict's News store. acted as a.
brake and stopped Mr. Tait's car.
Meanwhile, Mr. Tait) unaware of
the accident. came out of the store.
The minute he struck the street. he
heard what appeared to be about
500 children screaming. but it was
only his two youngsters in the run—
away machine.
