Forbear. bold yeauth, all's heaven

And what you do over
To others courtship may appear.
'Tis sacrilege to her.
She is a public deity;
And were’t not very odd
She should dispose herself to be_

First make the sun in private shine
And bid the world adieu.

In compliment to you:
But if of that you do despair,
Think how you did amiss
To strlve‘to fix her beams which are
More bright and large than his.

Calling Out. the Troops.

(New Britain Herald.)
Having expressed their pleasure at
the success of the surprise mobili-
zation of the National Guard, Gov~
ernor Trumbull and Adjutant Gener-
al (.‘ole can turn their faces toward
Washington and yield a hearty
chuckle.
After having declined to take part
in the so-calicd "muster day" on
July 4. Connecticut was the first State
in the Union to hold an actual thus.
for of available military forces.
The result was never in doubt. Ex-
cept for those hearty youths who
were out automoblling with sweet-
hearts and could not be reached
quickly. all other members of the
guard made an appearance. The ten
per cent. or so whowere not mobil-
teed would have been on hand had
more time been given‘to prepare for
the showdown.
The Governor has shown the coun-
try that the State needs no instruc-
tions from Washington as to how to
go about getting the troops out in
an emergency. .

\
Startling statistics were made
public the other day by the Amer-
ican Gas association with reference
to the amount ‘bf new money in-
vtsted in public utility securities
during the first. four months of 19:5.
The record shows that sales of
stocks and bonds of public utility
companies to employees. customers
and the general public front Janu-
ary l to April :5". .1925. were at the
Sundays
and holidays included.
This confirms the testimony of
the stock market during the same
period when public utility shares
were advanced to record high prices.
Never was this class of security so
popular with investors as it
been this year. in large measure
this public confidence is justified.
particularly as it relates to the elec.
tric light and power industry. The
demand for the scruccs these eicc~
tric light and pmver companies sup-
ply is steadily increasing and the
limit lsrnot yet in sight. New uses
are found for electricity almost
daily and the earnings of establish-
rd companies show steady and pro-
gressive increases.
All this admitted there is a very
real danger that lead on by specu-
lative enthusiasm investors will for.
get the conservatism upon which
all sound investment is founded.
Optimism with regard to the future
of the public utility industry should
be combined with caution when
purchasing junior securities at a
time like the present. Each indi-
vidual stock or bond should be ex-
amined on its merits. While the
general situation is. bright there are
without any doubt some stocks
which in their swift upturn have
more than discounted all the favor-
able features.
Every movement of this kind goes
too far and investors will bemary
about following the crowd without
discrimination. Certainly this ap-
plies to the common stocks of the
utilities many of which are selling‘
at prices which give no return on,
the money invested adequate to the
risk involved.
Fortunately the same condition
does not apply in the case of the
utility preferred stocks which have
had no advance commensurate with
their improved status and which
are stlil.selllng to give larger rem
turns than almost any other kind of
investment carrying the same degree
of safety. The reason is that the
speculative possibilities of these pre-
ferred stocks are negligible but that
is no objection from an investment.
