promise of three years ago to give
the city another deputy. The rest
of the county is watching the situa-

surprise in political and legal circles
that a city of Stamford's else has
only one deputy sheriff.

Those most concerned in the
choice are the lawyers who employ
the deputy in the service of legal
papers. Surely Sheriff Peace will
heed their demands!

Youth’s Opportunity

Honest, fair and inspiring words
were spok-‘n to school and college
graduates recently by A. Atwater
Kent. radio engineer. when he said
there was never a Ime when the
young man. ebpecially one technically
trained. had greater oppnrilmities.

He pointed to the remarkable ad-
vances being made almost daily in
manufacturing fields. in science. in
radio, and called this the young
man's age. This is more truly so to.
day than ever'before. He said that
strict application. conscientious work
and ability were bound to bring suc-
cess and Just rewards.

Everything he said is applicable to
the young men so proudly gradua-
ting from the high school hero to-
night.

‘The world lies before them. Suc-
cess and fame are ahead. But to
conquer they must bear no false ii-
lusions. To win out will require
every last bit of energy and genius

 

they possess. Luck and ull ar
negligible. 1) e
Remarkable discoveries lic around

the corner in every field. science.
business. law. medicine. tiic arts. but
only reveal themselVes to the tire-
less searcher. student. worker, in-
vestigntor.

Excerpts from Mr. Kent‘s common
sense. yet inspiring talk. are given
below: '

“There never was a time when the
graduate of the technical school had
the opportunity he has today. nor
was there ever so wide a iicld for
his knowledge. nor so great it chance
for him to make good in a big way.
Not so many years ago. the techni-
cal graduate was regarded by many
as second to the graduate in literary
or classical lilies. With no compari-
son. nor any disparagement to the
academic student, I mean to say that,
with the country's marvelous growth
in manufacturing. invention and en-
gincering, the technical student's op-
portunity today is as great as he
wishes to make it. '

“The value of the work the tech-
nical schools of the country are do-
ing in preparing young men for
practical pursuits cannot well be
estimated. The demand for well
equipped young men is.so great
that with year on graduation many
find pillow; with large organizations
where. with proper application on
their part, their future is assured.
litany young men who graduate this
year will be lenders in the still more
important engineering development
of the next ten, or even five years.
No one can foresee how great._that
will be. - .,

"in the field of radio alone. the
development is so rapid that the
most highly skilled engineers are
required to lefcp pace with it.
Radio is the yOIing man's field. It
appeals to his imagination and de-
mands his highest techincal skill.
Not, even we who are closest‘ in
touch with every change can _teil

coma tomorrow, or what baffling
mysteries of the air yet remain to
be solvct ."

 

T oday’s Poem,

They dance so light along;

The bloom upon her period lips

It perfumed suitor. spare thy smiles!

She better loves the salted wind.
The voices of the sea.

Her heart is like an outbound ship
That at its anchor swings;

But dreams the while of one
Who watches from his sea-blown

She questions all the winds that

And every fog-wreath dim,
And hide the sea-birds flying north
Bear messages to him.

Motor Trucks

By GEORGE '1‘. HUGHES.
(Copyright. 1926.)

The Secretary of Agriculture cou-
tributcs some illuminating statistics
to the discussion of the effect of
inoior truck cot-petition upon the
railroads. This is a subject of great
importance to holders of railroad
securities. There is no disputing
the serious nature of the competi-
tion for passenger' traffic between
the. railroads and the automobile but
the situation as to the carrying of
freight rests on a different basis.

St'Crt‘lary'Jll‘dlno finds that there
is no prospector); the railroads be-
ing suprrcedcd by the, motor truck
as freight carriers except aver very
short distances. In support of this
proposition he realise that in Con-
necticut 40 per cent of motor truck
tonnage is moved less than ten miles
and nearly 70 per cent less than 30
miles. In California :6 per cent is
hauled less than ten miles and 60
per cent less than 30 miles while
the. tonnage limited more than 70
miles is less titan 20 per cent. In
Cook County. lliinois. 24 per cent
of the movement is less than ten
miles, 75 per cent less than 30 miles
and only about 3 per ccnt moves
more than 100 miles.

According to the Secretary motor
truck operators have found that the
long haul is not profitable at any
charge comparable with railroad
rates. These conclusions agree with

. the story told by the car loading

records which for some time now
have been at unprecedented totals.
It may be regarded as established
for the present at least that the
railroads will still continue to per-
form an essential public service as
freight carriers over longer distances
and that investors in railway stocks
and bonds may leave out of consid-
eration the supposed threat of the
motor truck to the safety of their
holdings.

Remember that this conclusion is
a general one and that there may be
individual roads which will suffer
from unrestricted motor truck com-
petition. Thesc. however. are ex-
ceptions and may easily be picked
out from the rest by the result upon
earnings.

 

CHAPTER 12:.

Lilah was to have met Midliael at
1 o‘clock to go with him and Attor-
ney Cohen to the Horncrs. But late
in the morning she telephoned him:

"Michael, 1 can't get away to go
with you today. I forgot that I prom-
ised mother I'd help her out at the
ladies' aid today. Can't you go tomor-
row instead?"

“Well, I've already made arrange-
ments with Cohen, and he's been so
nasty that I don't. Aim to ask him to
postpone it. , . ." ,

"The matter can afford to wait a
day. can‘t it?"

“Yes. but—3'

“Very well. I know that you don't
want me to go. Goodbye."

"Lilith!" He jangled the telephone
hook hopelessly. The devil! Now she
would think—. He decided to keep
the engagement today.

He took Cohen out there in his
car. Both were silent. Cohen. attor-
ney~at~law and a shrewd mam, mis-
took the significance of Michael's
frown.

"Well, Mrs. Horner. I have per.
suaded Mr. Menlow here to come to
an agreement." he said when they
entered. rubbing his hands.

Michael stared. The nerve of the
man! "Mrs. Horner knows very well

'that I have not attempted to shirlt

responsibility." he said quietly,
The women did not commit her-
self.

Michael found his eyes seeking a
glimpse of Mrs. Homer's daughter:

The men seated themselves.

"l have here an agreement." said
Cohen. drawing out a typed sheet
of paper. He carefully adjusted a
pair of nose glasses and went over
it before reading its terms. “It is to
the effect that in consideration of a
release from all claims. you, Mr.
Menlow. agree to pay the sum of
$2.000. in addition to hospital and
dootor bills. and whatever Mrs. Hor-
ner has lost in wages." He raised his
eyes to Michael's.

The latter smiled. "You know very
well, Cohen. that that amount is un-
reasonable. Besides, my wife's re.
sponsiblllty is a matter of doubt. Her
case has not. come to trial. Th‘ei‘e'a‘re
witnesses. . . ."

"Yes. we have witnessed} said
Cohen, pointedly. \

“Now if you were to say 3500"—
Mrs. Homer's greedy mouth fell-—
“plus a fee to you of $100, I might
consider it." - -

The attorney smiled blandly.

“I usually arrange my fees with
my cheat, and not with the defend-
ant." He smiled at Mrs. Homer. She,
suspecting that Michael milht be
trying to bribe her agent. smiled in
return. a smile of triumph. What a
smart attorney she had!

“If you should sue. you probably
will get considerab y less. as you well
know. And you. If . Homer, will go
much 'less. I suppose this man his

The following items appeared in

the issue of The Evening Sentinel of
Juneau“. 19.6:
‘ The big tug Babcock which went
ashore on Green‘s ltcef yesterdnyl
morning was floated with the nid‘
of two tugs from Bridgeport at high
water yesterday afternoon. The
craft was not badly injured and only
leaked a trifle.

St. Joseph's 'I‘. A. B. Society gave
a very pleasant dance that evening
in the big pavilion at Roton Point.
The affair was largely attended and
thoroughly enjoyed.

By an overwhelming vote of 132
to 35 it was voted at the special

 

meeting of the Center School Dis-

trict last evening. which rescinded
the, action of the annual meeting
which instructed the District Com-
“lint“. to engage a new principal to
supplant l’rincipal Charles A. Tuck-

The idea, of having the different
companics of the Third Regiment
leave for camp on the 12th of Aug-

the men it day in camp to get set-

pnny could promise to turn out in
full strength on the 12th.

A meeting of the young people
who are interested in the formation
of a tennis club in East Norwaik
was held last evening at the home
of the Misses Youngs in East ave-
nue. It was decided to have Finch
Brothers grade the. new court.

power this year to elect 12 to the
Hall of Fame from a. list of 27 Amer-
icans who are in nomination. are
now marking their ballots.

While the balloting is in progress.
the question is being raised as to
whether. after all. this hall of fame
is America‘s Hall of Fame. Critics
think many worthy Americans are
being neglected.

The new nominees for 1925 are
Charles Bulfinch. architect: Cyrus
West Field. business man; Sidney

soldier; Adoniram Judson. mission-
ary: William Penn. preacher: and
statesman: Wendell Phillips. orator;
Henry Hobeon Richardson. architect:
Benjamin Rush. physician; Philip
Henry Sheridan. soldier; Benjamin
Thompson. scientist.

To this imposing list the critics
point. However. all» those men-

tioned are eligible for election this
your. ,

Iluii of Fame elections are held
every five years. and it requires a
three~fiftbs vote of the ‘107 electors-
io entitle the nominee to a place.
These electors are university presi-
dcnts, professors. scientists. authors.
cutters and artists. men and women
of affairs, high public officials.

Dr. Robert Underwood Johnson.
author and diplomat. is the director
of the Hall of Fame. He has
charge of the nominations and bal~
toting. Ito supplies the following
list of those now in the hall:

George Washington. Abraham
Lincoln. Daniel Webster. Benjamin
i-‘ranklin. Ulysses Simpson Grant.

Cohen broke in:

"Look here, Mr. Mentow, the
agreements of my clients and my-
self are none of your business. You
are the defendant in this case." he
saidangrily.

Michael preserved his calm.

"Very well. I'm afraid we can't
do budneu. Bring your suit. and
I’ll have Thurber attend to it. I'm
perfectly willing to do the right
thing. But I wont be robbed by a
oyster lawyer." He arose. “Mrs. Hor-

do not persuade your lawyer to

It opened. and in walked the girl.
Michael paused and smiled a greet.
ing. She nodded impersonatly. A
basket of groceries was on her arm.

Michael's eyes followed hei- as
she crossed the room. Where has this
girl learned to walk like ,a lady?
Surely it wasn't natural?

He saw Cohen eyeing her Insolv-
iously. "I'd like to smash his dirty
face." he thought.

He turned again to the door. He
would come again tomorrow. be de-
