In these days 1t would seem that

mere forms and ceremonies, social

hospitality. When we are so exact as
to look up the meaning of the word
we find that, according to the best
authorities, hospitality is the recep-

There is something that pleases our
imagination when we read about the
hospitality in the olden times, when
life was simple and when a delightful
leisure existed which does not belong
to modern times. In an old-faShioned
novel we read that the heroine, in the
fourth week of her visit at a friends
house, was in doubt whether she
should continue her stay, and the
painful consideration made her eager
to be lid of such weight on her
mind. She resolved to speak to her
hostess, propose going away and be
guided in her conduct by the manner
in which her proposal was received.

NO one, of course, will question the
tact that many of the schedules have
become more or less obsolete in the
ten years in which they have been in

or duties on certain articles is not by
any means the sole consideration in
the question of Tariff revision
The effect on business conditions

lily OF securing any schedule that will

must never be lost sight of. AS to
the first of these, it is a wellknown
fact to all who have followed the
economic history of our country that
the opening up of the tariff question
inevitably gives business a serious

Alanson CanfeId Celebrating tooth
 Birthday.

Alanson Canfeld, 100 years old, voted Monday in New Milford and kept up his reputation of being the oldest voter in New England. He has always voted straight ticket. He was one of the first whigs and later a republican, and has deposited ballot at every presidential election since 1928, casting his first vote for Andrew Jackson and his late for Roosevelt.
 Mr. Canfield was the chief guest at the special old folks service held in his honor Sunday at the Congrega- tienal church, of which he has been an active member for seventy nine years. The Rev. F. A, Johnson preach ed on the glory of old age.
 MT. Garfield was born and has ale ways lived In New Milford. In early life he was a farmer, later a butcher, and eventually started the first lum- Der yard in that section, from which business he retired in 1867. His mind Is bright, and his bodily faculties sound, though he is slightly deaf and at times bothered with rheumatism. He greatly enjoys playing checkers always proving a fairly good adver- 'sary. He resides with his daughter Mrs. Charles Camp, on Main street New Milford.
