our TONIGHT
Eyesything Prepared By
Firemen to Make Show-
ing Boat Ever Held in
Town
The spirit of fun and frolic is
about to be glorified in Darien and
the town is appropriately gsrbed for
the occasion, for the firemen's ear-
nival opens tonight, and according to
the firemen it will be “the biggest
and best ever." Boothe have been
erected. the tents are up, the can-
vas lnclosure has been fixed. and
everything is ready. All that is lack-
ing is the buzz of the wheels. the
roar of the bond and the throngs of
people to bring the scene to life. The
fire house is draped with American
flags and strings of gay banners
havp been stretched between the
trees. 'The whole will be fully illum-
inated tonight and the bright lights
should attract many a passerby.

Kipling Muses on writers and Fame
Famous English Poet. Hollored With
Literary Society Considers Un
old Medal By
nty of Per-
manent Glory for Knights of the Pen.
Acknowledging the award of a gold medal by the Royal Society in
Literature at London
Wednesday evening.
Rudyard Kipling delivered
an address on writers and their work which is likely to become a chronic
on the subject.
it follows:
"When the shadows lengthen ”one
contrasts what one had intended to
do in the beginning with what one
has accomplished. That the experi.
once is universal does not make it
any less acid. especially when—as in
my case—one has been extravagant-
ly rewarded for having done what
one could not have helped doing.
"But recognition by one‘s equals
and boilers in one's own craft is a.
reward of which a. man may be un-
ashamedly proud—as proud as I am
of the honor that comes to me to-
For I know
with whom you have seen fit to
brigade me In the ranks of litera-
ture. The fiction that I am worthy
of that honor be upon your heads.
Fiction Oldest of Arts.
“Yet at least the art that I fol-
low is not an unworthy one. For
fiction is truth's elder sister.
Obviously. no one in the world knew
what truth was until some one had
told a. story. so it is the oldest of
the arts. the mother of history. blo-
graphy. philosophy and of course of
politics.
"Fiction began when some man
invented a story about another man.
It developed when another man
told tales about a woman. In his
strenuous epoch began the first
school of destructive criticism as
well as the drst critic. who spent
his short but vivid life in trying to
explain that a man need not he a
hen to Judge the merits of an
omclctte. He died. but the question
he raised is still at issue. It was
inherited by the earliest wdtere
from their unlettered. ancestors.
who also bequeathed to them the
entire stock of primeval plots and
situations—those fifty ultimate com-
cdies and tragedies to which the
gods mercifully limit human action
and suffering.
“This changeless aggregate of ma-
terial workers in fiction through
the ages have run into fresh moulds,
adorned and, adapted to suit the
facts and fancies or their own gen-
craiion. The Ellsabethans. for in-
stance. stood on the edge of a. new
and wonderful world filled with
happy possibilities. Their descend-
ants 850 years later have been shot
into a world as new and as wonder-
ful but not quite as happy. And in
both ages you can see the writers
raking the dumps of the English
language for words that shall range
further. hit harder and explode over
a. wider area than the service pat-
tern words in common use.
Refieetions.
“This merciless search. trial and
scrapping of material is one with
the continuity of life. which we all
know is as a tale that is told and
wh ch writers feel should be well
tol. All men are i ested in re-
flections of themselv and their
surroundings whether in the pure
heart of a crystal. or in a muddy
pool. and nearly every writer who
supplies a reflection secretly desires
his share of immortality for the,
pains he has been at in holding up
the mirror. which also reflects him-
self.
“Ile may get his desire. Quite a

it would seem that fiction is one of

"Under these co ltd itio n s has

the inveterate lack of thrift of the
English. who are never happy un-

By virtue of that same weakness. or
