tipate aim being a trait highway
from New York to .Bosten that
would relieve all other roads of the
slow freight now carried. The pro-
position that it be constructed par-
allel to the railroad tracks was made
in the interest of economy.
Under the scheme the highway
could share with the railroad the
coat of necessary bridges. fills and
culverts. which have already been
built and would need only to be ex-
tended from the “railroad track bed
to cover the highway.
The planning association has tak-
en up the matter seriously and the
surveying of the county is now go-
forward under its supervision.

Sa uel P. Senior. of Bridgeport.
president of the association. declared
recently in an interview‘with a Son-
tinel reporter that in‘ all probability
some scheme of financing the road.
either municipslly or by subscrip-
tion, would be undertaken as soon
as the survey is completed and ac:
cepted. He said. however. that the
plan might-be held in abeyance
pending the clearer definition of
the network of trunk lines projected
by Highway Commissioner Macdon-
ald. It is thought the two schemes
may conflict.

 

_r_

who'will not be ready for gradua-
tion at’ the end of one and a half
years. will be provided for through
the sponsorship plan. which is be-
ing recognised as the successful so-
lution of our responsibility to these
children who are still in the kinder-
garten class.

The town committees will be ask-
ed to accept a quota of these young-
er children for sponsoring and. al-
though the number has not as yet
been stated. it is estimated that 800
will be assigned to Connecticut. in
addition to the 1'15 that are being
provided for now.

The latest reports from the Near
East indicate .that economic condi-
tlone are gradually improving in all
sections except Syria. that there the
war: between the french and the
Druses has practically disrupted
business. Over 1.000 children who
were formerly in the Near East Re-
lief orphanages and had since been
placed out in positions. have recent-
ly request temporary aid from the
Near East‘ltlelief as a result of hav-
ing lost their employment. Most of
these children are located 415.13%,
mascua‘Whel-e bustneuds'reported
'as being at a standstill. With the
continuation of the reclamation
work in Greece and Armenia. it is
almost certain that the entire enroll.
ment in the agricultural schools
conducted by the Near East Belief
will be placed on the land that is
now being irrigated. ' v

Mention should be niade of the
old clothing collected through the
schools of the various communities,
which in Connecticut has amounted
to. 75,000 pounds. The total valua-
tion of this clothing has been set at
"2,500.1

The Near East Relief has con-
ducted the largest philanthropic ef-
fort in behalf of orphan children
that the world he‘s ever known and
it deserves the continued support of
its mew friends until the work is
completed. The campaign which is
now unhr way is built around the
slogan "Don't let go.”

Judge Dana Accepts Plea
That Men Believed They
Were _ Carrying» Near
Beer. - ~ \

Because there was a reasonable
doubt that they were unaware that
they were transporting alcoholic
beverages. Judge- v Charles Baas
Dana dismissed the cases of Louis
Gambardella. 1" Green street. and
Anthony Aaurtlno. 208 Putnam
street. both of New Haven. at the
regular session of the Barton town
court.- last evening. The two men
were arrested by Policeman Edward
Mugavero on the afternoon of July
:4. and released under bonds of 81.-
000 each. after 100 barrels and 15‘
kegs of beer yore taken from Gam-
bardella's truck. '

Gambardells testiiled that he had
agreed'to make the trip for a whole-
sale grocer in New Haven. by the
name of Angelo Fabri. and that he
was promised 850 to lake the load
to New Rochelle. He was told. he
said that the cargo consisted of
near beer. He was employed by his
father. who had been in the trucking
business for seven years.

At the prospect of making a few
extra dollars, Asurtino. who gave his
profession as that of cigar maker's
apprentice. accepted Gambardella's
invitation to accompany him on-the
trip. He testified that he also
thought Gambardella was transport-
ing near beer.

In-hls summary of the case. At-
torney Anthony Arpala. of New dia-
ven. for the defense was interrupted
when the judge brought up the
point that the truck was stopped on
Mansfield avenue. suggesUng _that
the driver was taking a back road in
an attempt to avoid the police.
Gambardella resumed the stand and
explained he had met his brother 'in
Norwalk. had taken him a short dis-
tance up the Danbury road. and that
he was making his way back to the
Post road. when he was stopped by
Mugavero.

The cases were dismissed by
Judge Dana after Attorney Arpaia
hss'pleaded that the state had not
proved that the two men were con.
soiously transporting‘ intoxicating
liquor.

This map shows the constellations

August 15 and 7 p. m., August 31 in
latitude 35 degrees north. As a

change of a few degrees in latitude

pearance of theuheavens it is .prac-
ticable for any-part of the United
States or Southern Canadaw The
map should be held inverted or over

At the tiines mentioned. two of
the most brilliant of the aodincal
constellations. Scorpio, The Scorpion.
and Sagittarius. The Archer. ere
conspicuously in view in the south-
ern sky.
Milky Way

Scorpio in the southucst is easily
identified by the long curved line of
bright stars extendingwtoward the
southern horizon that outlines the
tail of The Scorpion. while the fiery
red Antares. a star of the first meg-
nltude lies in the creature's heart.
Sagittarius is readily identified by
the little milk dipper that Is invert-
ed toward the south.

The Milky Way is particularly
beautiful this month. as it arches
high across the heavens from Cas-
siopeia and Cepheus in this northeast
through the Northern Cross in Cyg-
nus where it divides sharply into
two branches. One of these passes
through Aquila and Sagittarius. the
other through lOphiuchus. meeting
at the southern horizon in Scorpio.

They will be seen to the but advan-

them should be seen within the
course of an hour.

Meteors or "shooting stars." as
they are also erroneously called. are
small dust particles weighing usual-
ly only a few grains that are heated
to incadescence by the friction pro-
duced by their passage through the
earth's atmosphere. They represent
the debris of disintegrated comets.

Two plants are visible in the eve-
ning sky at the times for which the
chart is pTcpared. Jupiter in Capri-
cornus comes into opposition with
the sun on the lath and then rises
in the southeast at sunset and re—
mains visible throughout the night.
It is by far the brighest stellar ob-
Ject in view.

Saturn Is Bright

Saturn is in Libra in the south-
west. It is yellowish in color and is
considerably brighter than Antares
on the southeast. but is inferior in
brightness 'to Arcturus in Bootes
which is new high in the western
sky. Mars is in Aries and rises be-
fore midnight in the northeast. It
is more brilliant than the brightest
stars of first magnitude. with the ex-
ception of Canopus and Sirius. The
planets Venus and Jupiter surpass
it in brightness, however.

Venus is still a line Morning Star.
Mercury will be in position for ob-
servation for a week or so before

French Fashions May
Be Dee ly Influenced .
y Sultan’s Visit

 

PARIS (Am—The dressmaking
world of Paris is wondering wheth-
or the visit of Mulai Youseef. Sultan
of Morrocco. will have an effect on
future styles. Will the burnous. or
the hooded diellaba‘influence the at-
tire of the “women of Paris and _so of
the women of lillihe world. thanks
to the present Moroccan invasion of
Paris? Will women's fancy allow
the little red checkla or fee-like
headwcsr to have any iniluence‘over
their own styles? Past experience
leads dress designers to‘ the belief
that something along these lines
may be expected.

The Sultan himself would uh.
doubtedly feel flattered at any such
outcome to his journey. He has ex-
pressed his admiration of the devo—
tion shown by French women to

tion of economy. When he was
asked what signs of that3devotion
struck him most. he explained:

"I see it in the economy that the
women of ., your. country make in
shortening their dresses. , If their
gown‘s only reach ' the knee. it is
doubtless in order to save material
and thus follow the counsel given
by their government."
