 Representative Maaee, as house chairman of the committee on roads, rivers and bridges, laid in on Friday the report of that committee relative to the motor vehicle laws. There are three important chanees recommended from the present laws regulating the operation of motor vehicles in Connec- ticut.
 The bill reported favorably does not differ in any way, as regards the speed clause, from the present law. except ing that the provision Is added that In no case shall any person operate mo- tor vehicle in Connecticut at speed in excess of S5 miles an hour.
 Another provision of the bill requires that a register shall be kept at gar ages and transient motorists who stop at them shall be required to register. This plan, it is intended, will allow of Keeping closer tabs on the movement of cars, as is sometimes desirable.
 The bill also contains 8 clause pro- viding for a reciprocal agreement un- der which n-resident motorists may tour this state under the same condf- tions as are accorded in the states from which these tourists come, 10 Connecticut automobolists.
 On Thursday of this week the com- mittee on appropriations will give a hearing on the bill providing for the erection of a dormitory at the state normal school at Willimantic. At the original hearing on this matter be- fore the committee on education, im- pressive pleas were made to show how desirable such a building will be.
 The judiciary committee was the only one. that worked Friday, sitting at a hearing on bills providing for changes in the Sunday law.

Oh, some may cross the harbour bar
 and see the. tropic moon Ride high above tie c0rn1 isles where
 screams the mad typhoon, And soma may see the Southern Cr0So
 look down upon the Rand, But others go a-trayeling in the Never < Never Land.
 Oh, some uprising with the sun may
 greet the rosy morn, And follow far along the hills at sound
 Of huntemari's horn. ' But others who would gladly mount
 and join the outward band Have yet to do their hunting in the
 Neyer-Never Land. Oh, some may pluck the rose of Love.
 and some the rose of Fame, And some a-tHtfng in the lists may win
 deathless name, But what Of those who break their
 spears? 'Tis they with bleeding Must pluck the thorns of failure in the
 Never Never Land. Oh, you'll find the faded petals, and
 you'll ind the shivered spears, And you'll find the long-lost laughter that has fingered into tears, And you'll find the fallen castles that
 were built upon the sand If you rise and go a-hunting in the

Combination and "Golden Rule

From the New York Tribune.
 The language of business becomes mystical. Where few years ago in-
 dustry was engaged in ''cutthroat' com petition-that was the savage adjective which no one then thought of resent ing--and where little later it took the form of combinations, which legisla- lures and courts stamped as "eriminal,' it is now satisfied to apply nothing short of the golden rule as the stand ard for it's guidance. Judge E. H. Gary has only to invite the attention of steel producers from all over the world in convention assembled at Brussels to the
 somewhat neglected golden rule for all of them to avow their enthusiasm for it and begin plans to organize and put | 1t into effect.
 | Is the nature of business changing that it should require millenial phrases | to describe it's purposes? Combination | the much abused and out of date, came | in with fair phrases and fine promises about the economies to be effected by
 it. in which the public was sure to | share. Will cooperation" and the | golden rule" soon stand no better in the public regard than this predecessor? | Will Legislatures and courts pursue
 them? Cynical persons will suggest
 that in this noble system with the fine l ethical name one factor has been left out Will these golden rulers" love the consumer as themselves and do
 unto the consumer as they do unto
 themselves?'

IL would be below the average of Georgia counties, but would have good start The territory of which it proposed to make the new county claims 1t has been sIiehted in the matter of road building and other ways, and that it is entitled to more consideration It is said there Is very little opposition to the new county proposition
 There may be little opposition to the new county in it's immediate territory, bu' the legislature has been wary of new county pt opositions of late, and since the creation of nine new counties some seven or eight years ago, making the total mum ber 14G. ic has been practically out of the question to get another new county bil through the legislature.

Swell Dressers in Abyssinia

From the Los Angeles Times.
 Now, it will be different at the Abys- sinian coronation. In that country we are informed, the vogue in ladies gowns is entirely different, A swell dresser in Abyssinia cuts her gown so low at the neck that it really abbreviates itself to within three inches of the hip. In fact, the whole gown is not more than about a foot long altogether. We dare say that If Mrs. Willie Carter were to appear at Prince Lidji's coroation in her green tights the Abyssinian ladies would look upon her with wonder and ask her why she had gone to so much trouble.
