For Over Eighty Years He Has Been a Highly Esteemed Resident of this Locality Life Story One of Hard Work and Good Cheer.

Always genial and ready to offer the right hand of good fellowship, James J. Landon, whose cut we present this week, has host of friends in this locality who will read with interest the facts of his life which are here related. MT. Lan- don now lives in Ashley Falls and has reached the ripe age of 82 years, nearly all of which have been spent i'll Sharon, Chapinville and Ashley Falls.

evident Friday when the building was spick and span from garret to cellar.
 A high compliment to the work of the superintendent, Miss Harriet Stone, which all who are acquainted with her work knew was deserved was paid by 5NIr. Hine who declared that he regretted his inability to explain more fully the na- ture of her duties and to show the1r m- fiuence on the schools under her juris- diction. He also complimented very highly the work of the corps of teachers in the local school.
 J. Henry Roraback spoke entertain. ingly of the school from the standpoint of the legislator and taxpayer, saying that while the construction of the new school had been somewhat of a burden on the taxpayers it was one whose i'm portance they saw and that they were more than satisfied that they had se- cured the worth of their money in this instance as the school is an institution of which the village may rightly feel proud. He spoke of the improvement of the school since he was teacher there and expressed the appreciation of the town for the efforts of those who have been instrumental in this growth and betterment.

Results of Saturdays Games
Lakoville 2, Canaan 8; Lime Rock 6, Sheffield 3; Millerton 3, Salisbury 2.

The standing giving above is the cor rect one for the present but, as recorded elsewhere, the fact that the Hyphens have discovered black sheep in thelr midst, is likely to result in a rearrange- ment of the standing in the near futupe
 Ryder and Meyers, so called, have both been dropped from the Lime Rock team and the question is before the board of directors as to whether or not the Hyphens shall forfeit the two games with Millereon and the one with Shelf field in which Meyers, of whose real identity they were as yet ignorant. played.
 Canaan's game at Lakeville is com mented on ln another column in a com munication to THE NEWS by one of the Canaan supporters. Hetfernan was in the box for the locals and pitched a steady game, striking out nine men and letting only two walk. Finn pitched for Lakeville and famed II, letting six walk. Lakeville brought in six runs the first two innings and one the next, while Canaan succeeded in handling them goose-eggs during the last six. It was pretty much the same story with Canaan, the local boys bringing in three scores the first two innings and stopping there. The Canaan team played against hard luck, only scoring two runs in the first after they had the bases full and no outs. Several times during the game the outlook for Canaan looked bright but at the critical stages of the game they failed to connect with the ball. Their work with the stick, was on the whole, much improved and the supporters of the local boys were encouraged by their work Saturday.
 The game was witnessed by 6 very small crowd, a mere handful compared to the number that turned out in Lake vile last season.

 From the age of 21 until his marriage MT. Landon worked for farmers ill the neighbOrhood of his home, after which he purchased right ill an ore pit at Ore Hill which he worked for three years. He then bought farm in Sharon which he worked for ten years. Later he purchased the farm in Chapinville where he remained for thirty years. It was six years ago that he retired from the life of an active farmer and has since made his home in Ashley Falls.
 MT. Landon was twice married. His first wife was Miss Sarah A. Kelsey, daughter of William Kelsey, of Gre Hill. His second marriage was to Mrs. Louise McArthur, of Ashley Falls, who, although 82 years old, is still bright and CbCGAFO oAlb AL1 CllIC1C1lb lIOOoOhCSpcI MI . Landon had three sons, two of whom are living, Frank of New Britain and Walter K. of Sharon, the eldest, William J., having died about four years ago.
 Interest in the affairs of the com munity where he has lived has always been one of MT. Landon' s characteristics. He held the office of assessor In Sails bury several terms and was once a can didate for member of the legislature, but, unfortunately being a member of the party then ill the minority he was years he was superintendent of the Chapinville creamery while he lived in that place and conducted the financial end of the business i'll very acceptable and efficient manner.
 A characteristic of MT. Landon to-day is his remarkable memory, for though an invalid, having suffered a paralytio shock year ago, his recollection of hap penings of 75 years ago and correct memory of intervening events, especi. ally dates and figures, is unusual. Men, places and events of his entire life's history have fastened themselves inde- 1 libly upon his mind.
 It requires no more than a glance at the above picture to inform one of the qualities of kindness and good cheer which have made MT. Landon always popular with his acquaintainces and which have won for him a long list of friends.

Bill is Rejected Which WuoId Have
 Provided Them
 The bill which wonld have provided pension for school teachers after thirty years service, was given its quietus in the house and as it had already been partially knocked out by the senate it is now disposed of for good. It did not give up without struggle, however, having been kept alive for some time by MT Chandler of Rocky Hill, upon whose request it went to the foot of the calen- dar when it came from the upper house 2 few weeks ago. MT. Chandler and MT. Marsh of New Milford. were the only champions of the measure. MT. Bris- made, of Washington, called it from the foot of the calendar. It had been ad- versely reported by the committee on education. MT. Brismade said he has already expressed his views of the meas ure in support of the committee report.

And Is Now Bringing Suit Because
 She Lost Some Avoirdupois.
 Most people weighing 600 pounds if there are many such-would be grateful, even to a corporation, for treatment that deprived them of a reasonable amount of adipose tissue. Not so Kitty Plunkette, who has begun suit in the New Jersey supreme court against the Public Service Corporation for $20, ,0OO damages for injuries and loss of flesh resulting from being thrown from a trolley car. Miss Plunkette alleges that before the accident she weighed 600 pounds and that by reason of the shock to her nervous system when she was thrown from the car she has lost something like 200 pounds. The law of compensation, as understood by laymen, finds no favor Ill the eyes of Miss Plunkette, whose profession is that of a museum freak. She insists, not unreasonably, that she needed all her weight in her business.

ADDRESS BY REV. ]. c. GODDARD
Ringing EuIogy of Connecticut's Part
 in Reforms the World Oyer.


 in Reforms the World Oyer.
 A pleasing feature of the closing ex- arcises of the two hundredth annual meeting of the state body of Congre- gational ministers at the Center church in Hartford last week was the address of the Rev. John Calvin Goddard of Salisbury, which rang with eulogy of the large part that Connecticut has borne in reforms in many parts of the world since the founding of the colony. Names of men and women who were prominent ill these reforms were men, toned and some features of their work were enlarged upon.
 The history of the abolition of slavery, he said, could not be written with Connecticut left out. The abol- 1shment of duelling followed the crusade against the evil which a Connecticut minister started.
 Allusion was made to the great work of Professor Gallaudet for the amelio- ration of the condition of the deaf.
 In light vein was given a descrip- ton of the home life of Dr. Lyman Beecher at his farm in Litchfeld, where, in the evening, after working in the field, he would get out his old violin and, after warming up with a rendering of the oldfashiOned tunes, was wont to wind up the medley with playing the popular air, "Go to the devil and shake yourself" Then step ping on to the barn floor and surrounded by his children, he would rattle off a double shuffle". for their amusement This exuberance of spirit was but a manifestation of the strength of body as we'll as mind with which he was endowed and put into his lifework.
 Reference was made to the Rev. pr. Leonard Bacon, who, as he himself had said, was not strong headed but strong hearted. Beecher's great work was hls fight against intemperance, having organized the first temperance organl- zation in America, and Bacon's was the fight against slavery. He was the author of the saying, "If slavery is not wrong, nothing Is wrong.
 The address was received with marks of approval.

BRYAN ADOPTS LIQUOR ISSUE
Says it is Likely to be Prominent ir
 Next Years Campaigns

William J. Bryan, busy with other matters, some of them of greater mo- mentary interest, has been somewhat neglectful of the liquor issue. Now he will attend to it. In a news dispatch from Omaha he is quoted as saying; After the fall election there ought to be conference of democrats to plan for next years campaigns. The liquor question is likely to be an issue. Last winter they defeated the initiative and the referendum, and I feel sure they will not be permitted to do so again. Asked if he intended to take part in the Nebraska fight on the liquor ques- tion, he answered that he did. "For eighteen years," he continued, T have been engaged ill discussing other ques- tions, but shall do my part to keep our party from being controlled by the liquor interests"

The Sweet Girl Graduate

How doth the busy little maid inn prove each shining second, in trying on the fluffy ruffs in which she Il be bedeck ened when that gellorious day comes round, the day of graduation-the greatest day for maidens fair in all the whole creation. What weight of great importance rests upon her dimpled shoulders ; what heaps of academic lore, in scrolls and books and folders what busy days confront her. and what great emotions shake her, 'twixt teacher OH the one hand, on the other the dress maker; the anxious hours reviewing all the tuting of her tutor; (saY nothing of the curler and the crimper and the f1uter.) What hours of deep reflection OCT the graduation thesis-such mental concentration would give pa and ma paresis. The high, ennobliug senti- ments, the studied meditation, the ges lures and infection that must fire that bright oration; the soaring flight, the periods, apostrophes and pauses, all must combine to elevate the worlds de- serving causes. But more significant bv far, and even more distressing, is that inevitable problem of commence ment dressing. What ribbons, bows and furbelows, what buckles, pins and laceS, must add the finish-touches to the sweet young lady's graces. There's nothing half so sweet in life, that may be seen free gratis" than our own lovely daughter. the bright, sparkling graduates.
