Many Bridgeporters expect to attend.
 Before the main convention date there will be a routine of fifteen ad- dresses delivered by specialists in var ious branches of Sunday school work with speakers from almost every city. DenominationA conferences are sched- u1ed.
 The dominating feature of the occa- sion will probably be the Sunday school pageant planned under the di- rection of many scholars from the Nor wich churches. The largest theatre stage will be occupied and scenes de- picting the history and progress of re- IigiouS instruction from the earliest times will be shown.

Thomas Osborne and son Walter of Webb district, are honey hunters for sure. Lately they found in a hem1ock tree, 12o pounds of the sweetness. Pre- vious to that, they had had two finds, one yielding 70 pounds and the. other something over 60. They have, 1t would seem, no use of keeping an apiary. for when they want any honey, they simply take to the woods and find some with no cost whatever, barring their labor.

Along came through Monroe last week, another of those lost, strayed or stolen (mentally) who, under tenn porary abberation, was driving his motor car, going it blind, so to speak. Anyway, he had the nose of the craft headed towards Bridgeport, when he asked a passer-by: <How far is it to Danbury''? !? And said passer-by sprung an old joke with his answer, like this: About 25,000 miles if you keep on the way you are going'' Turn the ma chine clean around and I guess 20 miles to get you there, all right" We should wonder how many folks live on Stupid street.

JAIL LEADERS on
BOTH SIDES, NEW
WAY TO STOP RIOT
Union Official Says Arbitration
Would be Reached if Both
Sides Were Imprisoned.

The quickest way to settle the
coal strike would be to Jail the coal
operators and the strike leaders and
keep them locked up until they would
agree to gentlemen's conference. "
says e. l.. Doyle, Secretary-Treas
er of the United Mine Workers Of
America, in Denver.
Despite the fact that the people
of Colorado are forced by the action
of the operators to pay exorbitant
prices for coal and face fuel famine
the operators continue their arrogant
policy of refusing to meet us in an
effort to settle the strike so that the
people will not suffer.
THE operators have not even an
swered our letters asking for a con-
ference and | think some compulsory
action should be taken to get them to
a meeting.
IF the governor would declare
martial law and throw the leading
operators and mine officials into jail
they would soon come to an agree
ment. He should keep them there
until they did soP'
