Smoking "In The Pink."
_____.
(From Time.)
Thrre is a. rule common to most.
if not all. fox hunters. that there
must be no smoking while "in the
pink" (dressed in the scarlet hunt
coat). Last week Prince Henry.
the King's third son. absent-mind-
edly pulled out his pipe and lit it
while waiting for the hounds to
pick up the scent. Members of the
hunt iookd aghast. but their amaze-
ment quickly changed to delight;
and in five minutes some twenty
pipes were going. Thus the popular
precedent created.

the
tide was advantageous and
schools have closed. As it. was. tin-
cars on the shore numbered well
over 400. By the. middle of this
week great crowds are expected. as
the tide is high in the evening. The
barrels for the second float have
not been touched yet. but work of
refitting will begin soon.
The’ highway department sent a.
gang of laborers to work on the
road to the beach on Friday and
many of the worst holes, which the
rains and traffic of yesterday would
have considerably increased. were
filled with great satisfaction.
Two of the girls. who have been
receiving instruction from Life
Guards Cancvari and Raymond.

They are Miss Natalie Anderson and
Miss Irene Hailcnd. The other can-

The main event of the week in
Darlen will be the specml town
meeting tonight. which will take up
a series of items. among others. the
propOsed purchase of a future High
school site. The moat important item
and the one which will receive most
attentionis the Police Department
appropriation. The Police Commis-
sion has been appointed. the money
has been voted by the Finance
Board. and all that is lacking is the
0. K. of the people of the town.
The commission is asking for an
appropriation of $5,945 for the re-
mainder of the present fiscal year.
Of this sum. it is proposed to expend
$2.525 for salaries for the chief anti
fiVs patrolmen. The remainder will
cover expenses. This does not in-
clude the two special traffic officers.
(.‘iarcnco Scoi‘ield and EdwardTin-
ker. whose salaries are provided for
in the town budget.
\The remainder in expenses will be
expended as follows:
Permanent signal bores 0800.00
General equipment 1,074.00
Office equipment and
motor expenses . . . .. 556.00
lncidcnlnls . . . ..... . 150.00
Clothing and equip-
ment .............. 040.00
$3,420.00
it has been figured out that tho
maiiitcnancce of the department for
a full fiscal year will cost approxi-
mately $13,500. or $1.00 for each :1.-
000 of assessed valuation. For this
expense, it is pointed out. Darlen can
gt‘t police protection. which was so
unanimously demapdcd following the
brutal murder of Herbert May. who
died defending his store against an
unknown bandit last spring.
Many citizens have openly come
out in favor of the. plan. They state
flint Barton is growing so fast that
the need for real police protection
becomes more apparent each day.

Coming at the time when High
school provisions will be discussed at
the Barton town nicetlng. the un-
nounccmcut that Stamford will mil
take any more illgh school pupils
from neighboring towns after the end
of next school year. is significant.
The Stamford School Committee,
meeting June 25. authorized the sup-
pcrinfcndent of schools to notify the
Marion authorities of this action.
This means that pupils must go to
Norwalk lilgh. which charges $100 a
year for out-of—fown pupils. Stam-
ford charaes $150 a year. but all but

GEORGIA HAS
EVOLUTION BILL
ATLANTA. Ga” June :10. —- The
anti-evolution teaching bill to be
introduced into the Georgia Legis-
lature is almost identical with the
Tennessee law.
ilcprcscntniivc W. ii. Stanford. of
Lowndes county. who will introduce
the measure in the lower house. is
recognized as one of the brightest
of the younger lcgislufors and wields
a wide influence. Discussing his bill
today he declared: "it is no monkey"
business" but is the result of seriousi
study.
"The bill will be introduced for
the purpose of clearing the situa-
tion." Mr. Sanford added. "I be-
lieve the laws of Georgia already
prohibit such teaching. At present
it is contrary to law to appropriate
state moneys for the purpose of
furthering the teaching of any rcll-
glous creed or. code. Therefore as.
in my opinion. cvolulion is the creed
of a sect. its teachings are already
prohibited. 1 have no information
