IN THE OLD CEMETERY
Worbmen on Railroad Improve.
 meDts Expose Remains.

Once more the bones of the fore fathers of the town are being Gis- turbed, this time in the excavations being made incident to railroad changes on Meadow street. The high retaining wall has been removed and a cut is being made into the old cem- etery property for the wider street. Later the new bank will be pro- tected by suitable wall, but at present things are crumbling down, among them old headstones and the whitened bones of human beings who trod the streets of this town many years ago. The work is in charge of City Engineer Cairns, who is taking particular pains to see that all skele- tons and portions thereof are proper fly cared for. It will be remembered that the lot on which the Bronson library stands was the only cemetery
 Waterbury had up to 1709 and that Catholics and ProtestanUs were in tered there for a time. When the property was transferred to the city and a portion parceled out for li- pfary purposes, number of bodies were removed to other places, but many were left there, and when one thinks of the little effort made to take up bodies and have them re- inferred where they would not be likely to be disturbed, he cannot hel3 thinking how soon we are forgotten once the grave closes over us. The spot where the excavations are now being made was where the Roman Catholics of the town who died be- fore the purchase of St Joseph's cemetery, were inferred. Many sug- gestions are being r,ade as to what is best to do with the bones, but probably the best heard is that they be encased in a neat box and buried in some portion of the lot where nothing ever will interfere with them, at least in our day and time.

HEARD IN FACTORIES
Falher Ssurusaiils Writes Warn.
 ina and Tells What 10 Do.

Editor of Democrat:
 Dear Sir-The laws or statutes of Connecticut are very prudent but they are transgressed every day, especially in the factories do not know about other nationalities, but I do know. that there are a great many Lithuanians, who are blas- pheming almost all the time in the factories, and sneering at those who try to practice their religion; it is very easy for them. because the superintendents do not understand their language. Here I give the citation of the law: 1928. Blas- phemy. Every person who shall blaspheme against God. either of the persons of the Holy Trinity, the Christian religion, or the Holy Scrip lures, shall be fined not more than one hundred dollars, and imprison- ed in jail not more than one year. and may also be bound to his good behavior. 1925. Obscene literature, in which is included obscene, in- decent, or impure language, shall be imprisoned not more than two years, or be fined not more than one thou sand dollars, or both.
 Great many of my parishoners complain of this, and when I tell them, that they should arrest those blasphemers and impure takers, they fear lest they may lose work, or may be killed by them. I con slider it. is wise and prudent to draw the public attention to the fact, that those good people should be en- couraged. I am sure that those statutes were not made for a mock cry, but for benefit of all citizens.
