Men May Yet BE Affected.

New York. Nov. Whether there
will be a general strike of all team
sters in the Metropolitan district in
sympathy with the walkout of express
company employees, rests upon the
decision OF William II. Ashton, gem
eral organizer, and Valentine Hoff-
man, vice-president of the lnterna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters.
Authority to call such a strike at
a moments notice, whenever they
deem it necessary was vested in them
by the Joint executive council of the
brotherhood at a meeting tonight.
In a statement issued after this
meeting Mr.. Ashton said:
There is one man above all others
who can decide whether or not a gem
eral strike will be called. That man
is Mayor Gaynor He can keep the
strike going Indefinitely or end it,
IF Mr.. Gaynor wants to avoid
general strike let him take the police
of trucks. In many cases the police
guard, so called. is acting as drivtr,
If we are compelled to call general
strike we will take out mail wagon
drivers, street cleaning department
drivers and stablemen.
I'VE will give Mayor Gaynor to-
morrow to think it over. There will
be no general strike called tomorrow,
so far as | can see
In the event a general strike is
called. the strike leaders assert 3d.
600 men will be affected and that all
traffic in the city will be tied up.

Well Deserved Popularity.

The great popularity of Lyman H.
Howe's travel festival at The Colonial
tonight is the natural reward of its su-
perioritv over all other attractions. It's
success is entirely due to its sheer excel
ltnce and quality. 1t offers more intel
lectual njoyment-more intrinsic beauty
more wholesome humor than may be
found in half dozen dramas or come
dies combiued. AS an example of perfec-
tion in marine photography he shows
the struggle of a vessel through terrific
gale at sea. Perfection is also attained
in another scene depicting Mohamme-
dams at worship in Delhi, India Here is
a scene of the Orient which even the
most gifted artist could hardly conceive.
Then again there are views of logging in
the Italian Alps; wild birds coIored true
to their plumage; winter sports at
famous st. Moritz, Switzerland; the
effect of music on wild animals, and a
series that is pre-eminently American
showing all the varied branches of our
army in active service in a way to inspire
every true American with pride.

John r. Landry in Jail Awaiting

him a surprise party in honor OF his
birthday. Landry, who has been keep
ing company with Miss Toussant, OBJ
jected to her attending the party and
went to Mr.. Leach's house and called for
her. Outside the house he tried to in
duce her to go away from the party
with him but she did not want to and in
his rage he struck her sharp blow in
the face. She broke away from him and
ran back into Mr. Leachs house badly
frightened.
Mr.. Leach notified the police and Chief
Hall and Jerome Smith went to the
house. Soon Landry appeared again
and demanded admission but the officers
met him at the door and he was soon in

A unique and very delightful entertain

Round Table of the North church Friday
evening. The Peer Gynt Suite by Grieg
with readings from Ibsen, which explain
and interpret the music, was arranged
for the evenings program. An account
of the setting of each scene was given by
Miss Eleanor Doran, prefacing the four
readings, "Ases DEATH" "Anitfa's

which are exceedingly dramatic, and
were finely rendered by Mrs. E. H. Ross.

Death" and "Anitra's Dance" expressing
such varied emotions, were played with
fine expression and beautiful tone color
ing by Mr.. and Mrs. N. R. Young and
Miss Warden. Solvejg's Song was
beautifully pathetic and appealing as
sung by Mrs. BE- Peters, and the pretty
tableaux added to the effectiveness of the
number. The string trio had the assist

Caleb H. Marshall.
Celebrated his S5th Birthday Last
Friday.-WaS Long at the Scale
Works.

Congratulations were extended to one
of our honored and esteemed townsmen
last week, when on Friday, Caleb H.
Marshall observed his S5th birthday.
He has reached this advanced age with
his health well preserved, with but few
inhrmities. and with an unusually happy
faculty of entertaining his friends. 1t is
great pleasure to listen to his remini-
scenses of his early days as we'll as the
joys of his later years. Mr.. Marshall
was born in Northumberland, N. H,
Jan. %, 1925, the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Caleb Marshall. His parents settled
soon after their marriage on one of the
best farms bordering on the Connecticut
river. There two children were born to
them who died when quite young, leav-
ing them again alone. This affliction SO
depressed them that they were inclined
to retired life and moved farther inland
where they built themselves log house.
There they lived for a number of years
and nine children were born to them,
Caleb H., being the second child and
oldest son. This home was so far from
the schools that the children were able
