MAYOR REILLYS
SALARY HELD UP
BY COMMITTEE
Especial from United Press.)

lOpeCidl from OnlCeO HreSS.)
Meriden, May when Congressman
Thomas L. Reilly, who is Mayor Of
Meriden. returned home, today, from
Washington, for a brief stay, he found
that his salary as Mayor had been held
up by the finance committee.
The explanation given by the COM
mittee is that the Mayor stated that
he would not draw his salary as Mayor
while serving as Representative in
Congress and would at the end of
his term as Mayor give the money
to charity. Congressman Reilly takes
the ground that the finance committee
should deliver the salary to him and
let him determine as to it's disposition.
The matter will come up for readjust-
ment at a meeting of the council, to-
night. Mr.. Reilly is a Democrat. The
majority of the finance committee is
Republican.

His Table of Contents
~ DR. S.kJRTLB

His life is volume and his con-
tents voluminous. 1t becomes a
story, an epic, in time, but to start
with it has the disconnectednes of a
dictionary His contents are some
what like the articles of an observa-
ton party, in their variety and seem
ing Indebtedness.
It would be rather easy to make out
the list, If he were only a little man, :"
as he is sometimes playfully or pat
ronizingly called But he is not a
little man" any more than his pa is a
big boy" or caterpillar is a little
butterfly. He is a prospective man,
an EMBODIED man, as his pa is an UNI
folded boy. The difference between
quantity or quality, but the difference
between enfoldedness and unfolded-
ness
When he first starts out to be a
boy, he is more like little beast
than a man, and the things that make
beast make no difference to him. The
saving fact, though, is that he is q
man in embryo.
His table of contents has variety
it includes physical, mental, moral,
aesthetic, and all the other powers
that we know anything about.
In the list we must put love and
hatred, hope and fear, aspiration, am
bition, sense of justice and fairness,
appreciation of the beautiful and sub
lime and true. In fact, there is not
power of the body or soul that we
can leave out, and the reader may go
on with the catalogue as far as he
wishes, at his convenience.
But they are in the immature and
curious stage when we are apt to mis-
take them for whalebone and leather
and pig iron and cat gut and rag weed
and sweet williams and morning
glories. Yes, he is pretty well loaded.
And they are active, too, all Of them.
That state of agitation is sometimes
called state of flux, which means
f1uency. They are all at work, all the
time. Some get started while the
others are opening their eyes. One
set of powers will have their way for
awhile, then others will get into the
lead. We cannot hold the watch and

overalls ready for business" nor that

When we think of him as an animal,
the scientists tell us that he has the
same origin as the other animals, has
travelled further and that somewhere
on the way, a new power got hold OF
him, that has made difference as
wide as the universe between him and
them They tell us that there are
more than fifty-seven varieties of
remnants, left in him, of the former
stages of life and that he is a sort
of reorganization of them all. Over
that point we will not linger.
1t was divinely arranged that he
should have physical origin and a
necessary likeness to his ancestors.
And we know that a responsible and
epoch making ancestor of his was
made in the image of God and, though
there has been wreckage in that
image, he is descendant of that an
cestor and still shows the traces of 1t.
Like produces like, even if there is
some personal unlikeness and
even dislike. His heavenly origin
is not to be forgotten. His body
is not only divinely fashioned, but
divinely furnished with its occu-
pant, whether he is good or bad. who

It is of practical Importance to

has Heredity is a great serious,
sometimes comical, but oftener trag-
ical, force with him. He is more apt
to be like his immediate parents, yet,
sometimes, by curious kind of per-
versity, he runs back into the genera
lions and selects some ridiculous or
contemplate trait, which nobody but
boy would ever think of selecting
and builds the freakish thing into the
house of his life.
But he usually gets his traits from
the nearest generation, and If any are
to be bad people, it must not be his
father and mother, because they fur

GREAT STADIUM AT TACOMA
Structure Is Shaped Like a Horse

Twenty-Five Thousand.

Tacoma's high school, which plays
an important part in Pacific-Coast ath-
letics, is the only high school in Amer
lea having an Olympic stadium, if not
the only one in the whole world. 1t
is a ponderous mass of steel and con-
crete, just completed at a cost of more
than 100000 in a gulch at one side
of the high school building The gulch
happened to be just the right shape
for the stadium, so but little excava-
ton was required. The structure is
shaped like horseshoe, with the open
end overlooking Commencement bay.
1t will seat twenty-five thousand peo-
pie, has a center sufficiently large for
baseball, football, track and field
events, and will also be used for out
door musical concerts and entertain
ments
A movement is already on foot to
secure the next Olympic games in
America, the people of Washington
believing that in Che Tacoma stadium
they have one of the best arenas in
the United States for such an event.

One of the problems In connec ion

Tom and Vera Have Secret Between

Tom and Vera had secret between
them. In burst of confidence Tom
told it to mutual friend, Will; but
regretting his action, obtained prom
Use from Will that he would never let
Vera know that the secret had been
told.
Will, however, told Vera that Tom
had let him into the secret. but made
her promise not to tell Tom that he
(WilD had informed her of having
obtained the information from Tom.
A little later Tom decided to let Vera
know that he had told the secret to
VIII, but instructed her not to tell
VIII that he (Tom) had admitted to
giving away the secret to VIII.
Vera went to Will and told him that
Tom had confessed to having let him
into the secret, but she made Will
promise not to let Tom Know that she
had given him this information. She
also went to Tom and told him, in
strict confidence, that Will had told
her about having learned the secret
from him.
Will next went to Tom and inform
ed him of Vera having stated that he
(Tom) had admitted to giving away
the secret. Tom retorted by saying
that Vera had told him that he (WilD
had advised her Of being let into
the secret. They both promised not
to tell Vera of having given away
the condolences which she had late
ly given.
But this is tho question: Were any
more condolences necessary? Or had
all of the three friends heard enough
to be convinced that the others knew
everything that could be told?
