The following are taken from the
Sentinel of June 28, 1914:
‘There is s. movement on foot to
make another chapge in our City
hall in North Main street. It is in
relation to the quarters of the police
department” The plans are not yet
matured and action in this matter
may be deterred but the proposition
has been considered and ar-
rangements have been discussed in-
formally. It is proposed to erect s.
building east of the City Hall on the
property now owned by the Second
Taxing district. the same to be a one-
story affair. The lock-up would be
in the basement and the court room
would be on the ground floor."
“Is Norwalk growing? Ask the
building inspector; Since he was in-
stalled in office on the 36th of Feb-
ruary he has issued permits up to
the 26th of June for new buildings
the estimate coat of which is set at
$326,973.".
- "Miss Marguerite Pennington of 23

‘ 12th birthday anniversary Wednes-
day evening by giving a party to

“The building committee of East
Norwalk has selected tomorrow as
the date. for breaking ground for the

”Joseph Bercsenyi who had
planned to hike barefoot across the

WHO’S WHO
[3 THE DAY'S NEW.
GEORGE E. BRENNAN.
icfore the Democratic convention
in New York draws to a close George
E. Brennan. long boss of Democratic
forces in illinois may loom as the
biggest individual force in the party
from a national standpoint.
A somewhat undersized. stout man
who walks with n cane: a man whose
poker face carries an enigmatic
smile. who rarely talks about things
one would like to have him talk
about. ‘
A man in the middle 60s whose
tastes run to baggy. comfortable
clothes. blut suspenders. silk under-
wear and expensiVe cigars.
A man who embellishes his con-
versation with a liberal sprinkling
of hearty cxplctivcs but whose lan-
guage can be as precise as that of
an Oxford don.
A man whose mind functions with
the mathematical and unemotioxui
precision of a chronometer. a man
who has the patience to Wait whsn
waiting pays and the courage to act
when action is needed.
Such a man is Brennan.
Two years ago. Liremm‘l covered
himself with glory when he succeed-
ed in‘ cltctlng a Democratic mayor
in Chicago. To be sure. there were.
outside factors which aided him ma~
ttrlally. but it was Brennan's politi-
cal cunning that opened the path to
victory for Mayor Dover.
llrennnn is one of the most pic-
tuu-sque figures of the Democratic
convention. He holds the vote of the
lllinois delegation in the hollow of
his hand, and Illinois is the third
most important state in voting
strength.
Brennan. is his personal character-
istics. is a peculiar mixture of [en-
crosliy and vindictiveness. He he-
longs to the old school of political
leaders.
Brennan has fought his way up
from the ranks. He started as a
“breaker boy" in the coal mines st
Braidwood, about 100 miles from
Chicago. Afterward he became a
miner and. while he was thus em-
ployed he spent his spare time study-
ing law.
While Attending law school. Bren-
nan found work as a teacher. He
came to Chicsao in 1807. Politics had
a magnetic attraction for him and he
soon allied himself with the Sullivan
faction.
Upon the death of Sullivan. Bren-
nan calmly stepped into leadership.

grave. lift; it any meaning? That is
the most «liiiicull question any man
cult be asked.
The meaning is beyond our reach
but the laws of life are not. Jack
London was, one Who an" the law
of life as synonomous with the LAW
OF MEAT.
London lets us see the rub of the
“lid learning what is to him the
supreme law. the Law of Most. in
“White Fang".
"Bo ban to accompany his mother
on the meat—trail, and he saw much
of the killing of meat and began to
play his part in it. And in his own
dim way he learned the law of meat.
"There were two kinds of life. his
own and the other kind. His kind
included his mother and himself.
The other kind included all live
things that moved. But the other
kind was divided. One portion was
what his own kind killed and ate.
This portion was composed of the
non-killers and the small killers. The
other portion killed and ate his own
kind. And out of this classification
arose the law.
"Law lived on life, There were the
enters and the onion. The law was:
EAT 0R 13h: EATEN.
"He did not formulate the law in
clear. set terms and moralixe about
it. He did not even think the law;
he merely lived the law without
thinking of it at. all.
I O O
HE SAW the law operating
around him on every side.
He had eaten the ptarmixsn chicks.
The hawk had eaten the pharmigan-
mother. The hawk would also have
eaten him. Later. when he had grown
more formidable. he wanted to eat
the hawk. He had eaten the lynx kit-
tea. The lynx-mother would have eat
en him had she not herself been
killed and catcn. And so it “Put.
"Tile law was hung invd about
him by all iixe things. and he him—
self was part and parcel of the law.
He was a killer. His only iood was

fore him. or ilcw itilu lilo air, or
climbed tn-cs. or hid in the ground.
or faced him and fought with him.
or turned the tables and ran after
him.
“Had the rub thmtght in man-
fashion. he might have cpitonliatul

world as a place wherein ranged a

"BLT THE CL'B did not think in
man-fashion. He did not. look at
things wulh wide \ision. He was
single-purported. and entertained but
one though; or desire at a time. Be-
sides the law of most. there was a
myraid other and lesser laws for
him to learn and obey. The world
was filled with surprise. The stir of
life that was in him. the Play of
muscles. was an unending happiness.
To run down meat was to experience
thrills and elations. liia roses and
battles were pleasures. Terror itself
and the mystery of the unknown.
lent to his living.
"And there were easements and
satisfactions. To have a full stomach.
to dose lazily in the sunshine—such
things were remuneration in full for
his orders and toils. while his ar-
dors and toils were in themselves self
remunerative. They were expressions
cf life .and life is always happy
when it is expressing itself. So the
cub had no quarrel with his hostile
environment. He was very ’much
alive. very happy. and very prone»
