JWith the passing of Albert Ed-
vifard Winchester. late superintend-
eht of the South Norwalk Electric
Works. the question that naturally
lilacs is who will be named by the
mind of Electrical Commissioners
at his successor.
:We believe it would have been Mr.
Winchestcr‘s desire that the man to
fdllow him should be picked from
the ranks of those who so faithfully
served under him.
:We understand that as the Elec-
tric Works is now conducted it is
up longer necessary to bring here
apd employ a high salary technical
n. and it is known that Mr. Win-
c ester. had he so desired. could
have commanded a salary many
times greater than was paid here at
almost any other plant.
The local power plant is said to be
on an efliclent. working basis and a
capable. experienced business man
would be well equipped to manage
it. One such is now employed at
the Electric Works and it is the.
general opinion that no better choice.
could be made than to name him for
the post of superintendent.
Humanity
A pathetic case was given publi-
city on page one of The Evening
Sentinel yesterday.
It was of Max Wolfman. his wife
find their six children who have been
ordered to move from their rooms at
I Day street.
They don‘t want to move for the
good reason that they can find no
other place to go. It seems that a
man and wife with six youngsters
are not, regarded as welcome ten-
lnta.
There are conflicting stories told
by the lessee of the house as to the.
undeairabllity of the “'olfmans as
tenants. While the tenants on their
part claim personal animus as the
cause for the eviction notice.
We would suggest in a spirit of
humanity that lessee and tenant ad.
Just their differences, so that the.
wife and her brood of six youngsters
do not find themselves compelled
to camp on the streets.
Shakespeare's words in the “Mer-
chant of Venice" are apropos. They
‘ . set forth that the quality of mercy
is twice blest. blessing him who
gives and him who receives.
Also that wonderful broad sense
of humanity so clearly and fully ex.
pounded in the old Testament should
be remembered. If it is the Wolf—
man family will remain living where
they are. until they can find another
home.
Ferry Senna;
A great deal of local interest is
evinced in various accounts which
have been printed of a ferry service
to be run daily between here and
Huntington. L. I.
Many merchants believe that this
ferry would be the means of increas-
ing local business in their respective
lines and are willing to offer every
‘ aid and encouragement to those who
would Operate the service.
At the present time the ferry is
under a legal attachment but it is
said that this can be removed very
readily.
A survey of the local harbor. al~
though it was repeatedly announced
that this would be made last week.
has not yet taken place. it is re-
ported now that this examination of
' . channel depth and docking facilities
fl as well as to them. and we
“will occur in the very near future.
Merchants deserve commendation
Ibr- their interest in this project
which would be a benefit to the city

lbs-vice from here would prove a
w Inmciai success to its backers.

The Next Fad.
(Indianapolis News.)
it is almost time for a new fad to
knock for admission. for they hap-
pen along at irregular intervals. The
man who thinks up the next thing
that will take the country by storm
may as well prepare to retire and
live off his income. There always
will be some persons who like puz-
zles. That has been true for many
years and probably will remain
true. but the popularity of cross-
word puzzles seems to be waning.
They will have their devotees. and
many of them. but it is reported
that there are not so many family
contests to see which member will
get at the puzzle page first, and
people who are well supplied with
large dictionaries do not get so many
telephone calls from those who are
not.
Mah-jongg leaped into sudden
popularity and failed almost as aud-
denly. The sets came in all sizes and
conditions—and prices—from the
paper outfits that could be purchas-
ed in the ill-cent stores; to the iv-
ory tile. With some person. .....h-
jongg still is popular. but the tie.
mand has slackened and sets have
been offered at greatly reduced
prices.
In card games bridge whiat and
poker seem likely to continue while
people shuffle decks, but there wab
a time when that seemed true of
euchre. about which little is heard
any more. Cinch has also lost favor.
Bridge is generally accpeted as a
social game although as experts play
it. there is no sociability about it
for'the reason that conversation is
not allowed and the player's atten-
tion must be given to the run of
cards. Most people who play it are
not experts. and find that it allows
conversation. The next fad will no
doubt be along pretty soon—some-
thing that will be popular with all
classes of persons and something not
too expensive for the public to buy
or play.

Michael’s Marriage
(By MICHAEL)
CHAPTER 1-16
Michael was worried about the
dinner, too. He didn‘t care partic-
ularly for such affairs. but because
he knew it meant so much to Lilah.
he wanted. with all his heart. for it
to be a. success. if it had been
possible he would have paid a great
deal of money to make its success
assured. lie was wondering. that
same evening .what he could do to
add to the attractiveness of the oc-
casion—flowers. music. celebrities—
when Sally Warbe crept into his
presence. Crept' is the word for she
came slowly and reluctantly. plain-
ly .very deeply worried about some-
thing. ,
"Mr. Michael." she begdn. hesi-
tantly. "there is something 1 would
like to ask you about."
"Why. certainly. Sally.
down."
She first made sure they were
alone. and then drew a chair near
his by the fireplace in the library.
“It's this. Mr. Michael. You know
that for several months a man. a
farmer. has beencaillng on me."
She was finding it hard to tell her
story. He wanted so much to
make her less self-conscious and
embarrassed. Perhaps he ought to
call in Lilah: but on second thought
it occurred to him that if Sally had
wanted his wife to hear the story
she would have told it to Lilah her-
self.
“Well." the housekeeper went on.
"he talked a good deal about the
money he was making in real es-
tate deals. in buying and selling
farms. and so forth. and he finally
persuaded me to invest some money
with him. That was three months
ago. He said we'd get our money
back in a month. with a profit of at
least .15 per cent.. but I haven't
seen a cent. and he keeps putting
me off."
She almost was on the verge of
tears.
"I wondered. Mr. Michael. if you
could look up this man. and see if
he really has invested my money."
"I think I could. Have you his
note. or some sort of written agree-
ment?"
Sally flushed. "Well, no. I haven't.
I thought it would be all right. You
see. we were. . ." She did not finish.
Her eyes could resist tears no long-
er.
Please sit
The whole thing was plain to
Michael. This man. by making Sally
Warbe believe he loved her. bad in-
duced her to let him have money.
No doubt he had no intentions
whatever of ever marrying her or
repaying the money.
"The old fool!" he thought. “.N'o
matter how old. or how sensible a
woman is. any man who makes love
to her can make a fool of her." He
concealed these feelings when he
spoke:
“I don't know what can be done.
You haven‘t a legal hold on him."
Sally's tears suddenly ceased.
"Oh. I don't want to cause him any
trouble. I just want my money
back. It‘s what your mother. bless
her. left me in her will. How she
.would bawl me out. if only she
knew!" .
“i see. Give me this mans' name
and address. 1'” attend to the mal-
ter."
He was sure that Thurber could
scare t e man into returning the
money. if it had not already been
squandered. if the money was un-
coversble. then he could replace
the money without Sally being any
the wiser. Eventually he did so.
“I hope this has shown you the
kind of man he is. Sally."
"I don't know. Mr. Michael. I
just thought that maybe he got tied
up some way. and couldn’t repay it.
and that maybe you could help him
get untangled."
Michael was surprised. She still
believed in the man! The idea of
Sally being in love was ludicrous.
But he didn't smile. The house-
keeper. friend of his childhood. was
as dear to him as a. favorite aunt.
and he couldn't allow her to be un-
happy.
“Don’t you worry. Sally. I'll get
it straightened out 'for you. But
don‘t—" lie was interrupted by the
entrance of Lilah.
Sally retired awkwardly: it was
plain she was glad to get away.
"Michael. listen!" ~Lilah cried.
“Lonnie Capper and Helen Hunley
have disappeared."
“so!" .
"Yes. Katherine just called up.
They can't find them anywhere.
Helen's mother is frantic. What
could have happened to them?"

Modern Treasure Hunt
Treasure hunts as adventurous as
thoae of Captain Kidd's time will be
made this year in the, United states
by an army of detectives under the
direction of the National Associa-
tion of Credit Men.
J. Harry Tregoe of New York.
executive manager of the associa-
tion. recently outlined the quest for
riches at the Mayflower Hotel here.
where the credit men mat in con-
vention and authorized the project.
The aim. he said. is to recover the
$800,000.000 in cash and property
that is stolen each year from manu-
facturers and wholesalers by fradu-
lent debtors.
Describing the "credit thieves"
operations. he reported:
"They play for big ataker—a. mil-
li|1 dollars or double that at a
time. A favorite trick is for one
merchant to send stock he pur-
chased on credit 1: a confederate
in another state. e receiver sells
the goods. all receipts being clear
profit. The sender declares himself
bankrupt. and points to empty
shelves when creditors ask for set-
tlement. . ‘
"Captain Kidd is believed to have
concealed his gold and jewels in
the sands of lonely blends in the
Caribbean. A New York business
man buried 88.0.0110 worth of Jewell
linens egos stoop” Island when
his wife subsequently turned over
the hidden loot. telling of the hours
she spent s\ving them up in a
waterproof cache.
"Burning their stores. faking
robberies i\id absconding with
funds are only a few more ways
commercial criminals cheat their
creditors. If caught. they are de-
fended by able lawyers of inter-
state crime ‘rings.’ They are or-
ganised more effectively than boot-
leggers. That is why it has been
so difficult for local and state to
lies to cope with them.
”The public suffers.
amounts stolen must be added to
the price of_gooda sold to honest re-
tailers. and ultimately to the price
paid by the consumer. 'Credit
thieves' thus are imposing upon
the public a tax which averages
”.50 a. your for every man. woman
and child in the nation.”
To combat "credit pirates." ap-
proximately 81.000.000 has been
raised by credit men during the
past two months. They will an:-
pioy detectives to gather evidence
which will lead to prosecution and
punishment of the master thieves.
The detectives will be stationed in

That the appointment of Field
Marshal Lord Plumer to succeed
Sir Herbert Samuel as high com-
missioner of Palestine means a. [ir-
mer British policy in the Near East
is taken for granted in England.
Although he is known as the
"Dandy General." Lord Plumer is a
noted disciplinarian and one of the
most capable military administra-
tors that Great llritain boasts. He
wears a monocie and speaks with an
Oxford drawl. he would go through
an artillery barrage to ensure his
daily shave. his uniform ia'aiways
the some of neatncss. and he always
couches his orders in most polite
terms. Within the velvet glove, how-
ever. there is a mailed flat. as many
of his men have found after smiling
at his dandified manner.
In South Africa.
He first gained prominence in
1896. when he was sent to South
Africa to organize the iiiatabeleland
Relief Force. His raw material was
made up of all the beach-COmbers
and remittance men of Capetown,
defaulting bankers and lawyers. for-
gers. fugithes from justice, a few
murderers and unfrocked clergy-
man. a sprinkling of Jameson mid-
ers and the riffraff of Johannes.
burg and Kimberly. This collection
of hard-boiled soldiers laughed
when Major Herbert Plumer screw-
ed up his monocle and spoke for the
first time. but the men soon learned
that he was not to be laughed at.
He made the organization a crack
force. and his men grew not only
to respect him but to love him.
Herbert Charles Onslow Plumer
was born in Devonshire in 1857. He
entered the army at the bottom
joining the York and Lancaster
Regiment in 1876. Six years later he
was made a captain, with which
rank he fought in the Sudan in 1894.
He was made a. major-general in
1902 and a full general in 1916. The
latch oilfield-marshal came to him
after the armistice in 1919. in which
year he was created First Baron of
Messlnes and Bllton. Yorkshire.
During the war he commanded
first the Fifth British Army Corps
and later the Second Army. After
the Caporetto disaster he led the
British expedition to Italy. It was»
his army that captured Messines
Ridge after days of bloody fighting
in 1919.
After the Treaty of \‘ersailes, he

Ono Fine Job.

"American labor is well oil; no
doubt about that: but the way some

Dinner Stories
just started practicing in I small
town and hung his sign outside of

"My goodness. man. look at that
sign! Don’t you see how it reads?
Put in your first name-Alexander.
Ambrose or whatever it is."
“Oh. yes. I know." said the law-
yer resignediy. "but I don't exact-
ly like to do it."
“Why not?" asked the client. “It
looks mighty bad as it is. What is

“Adam."
Bjones gazed at the new triplets
with fatherly pri e. but not a little
apprehension in is eye, neverthe-
less.
"What are you thinking. dear?"
asked Mrs. Biones. softly. .
“Nothin dear. nothing." he
said. falteringly. "only don't you
think it would be wiser for us here-
after to build up our little family
on the installment plan?"
The landlord had at last agreed
to repapcr several of the rooms.
“What kind of paper would you
like?" he inquired, "something with
large figures?"
"Decidedly not!" answered the
tenant. "They would be a. constant
reminder of the rent I have to
any."
The l‘npopularity of American
Tourists.
(Worcester Telegram.)
Mr. Van Loon. the historian.
brings back rather unpleasant re-
ports from Europe. He says Ameri-
can tourists are becoming more un-
popular as their numbers increase.
“Why. they are going through Eur-
oKe in great bodies of 200 and 300
a d more." he declares. "They
rush all ovcrd Europe, spending one
day in this town and two days in
that. It is all rush. But that is
not the worst of it all. They are
impudent enough .and I might say
intolerant enough to stop. for in-
stance. a young French boy on the
street and tell him he mustn't smoke
Or they will tell an adult that it is
harmful to drink. No wonder we
are disliked."
In the old days when there were
criticisms of the behavior of Ameri-
can tourists we could comfort our-
selves by the thought that the num-
ber of the travelers was compare.
lively small and that they did not
truly represent the great body of the
American people. But it is diaerent
now. More Americans can afford
to take a. short vacation abroad. and
more and more of them are doing so.
Are the Americans who now swarm
over Europe an lnsolent. vainglor-
ions and intolerant crow d? Mr. Van
Loon seems to think they are. How-
ever they mly act. can we truth-
fully say they do not accurately rep-\
resent America?
Sometimes we say to our citizens
of foreign parentage who speak
longingly of the euperioritiea of the
"old country": “Well. you must like
it fairly well over here. since you
make no effort to go back to the
land of your fathers." Similarly.
perhaps. Europeans can say to
boastful American visitors: “Well.
you must think we have something
worth seeing over here. since You
come over in increasing numbers."
If American tourists do create as
much ill feeling as Mr. Van Loon
suggests, perhaps some organized ef-
fort s uld be made to improw. our
trave tg manners. Maybe we used
to Ame‘ricaniss our tourists as much
as we need to Americaaiae our citi-
zens of foreign origin.
Counting Up Fast
(liartford Time!)
Hartford's population in 1920 Was
183.086. according to the count of
the census takers. That represent-
ed a growth of 40 per cent. in the
decennial period from 1910. when
the population figure was ”.816.
There is no reason to doubtuthat
Hartford has continued to grow at
about the same rate. School sou.
maration figures. vital statistics and
directory figures indicate as much.
Forty per cent. qowth would give
Hartford 155.8“ population at the
half-way mark in this ten-year per-

comes reasonably close to the more
