other words keep out of bad company,
avoid all immoral and vicious practices,
attend church regularly, and obey the
regulations of my employer; in short, l
promised everything she wanted, if she
would consent to my leaving home.
Accordingly in the spring of 1928,
being about Is years of age, l bid my
mother and uncle farewell and left
home for Middlebury, about Ia miles
distant, and engaged to learn the cabi

Parker. l put on my apron and went

home and employment. There was a
novelty about it that rendered it
peculiarly interesting. My labor fur
nished exercise for the mind as we'll as
the body. l have never been placed in
any situation, or been engaged in any
business which l enjoyed to so great an
extent as in the cabinet shop. l then
felt contented and happy, and never
aspired to any other distinction than
that connected with my trade and i'm
provements in the art.
Toward the end of the year became
dissatisfied with my employer in conse-
quence of his insisting upon my per-
forming some mental services in the
house. l was willing to do anything
connected with the shop, but could not
consent to perform the duties of a
servant in the house. A difficulty soon
arose between Mr.. Parker, his wife,
and myself, and resulted in my leaving
him and returning home.

not the largest recorded, it was con-
siderable larger than that of 1911.
The statistics gathered by jefferson
Middleton, of the United States Geo
logical Survey, show that the number
of brick marketed in the Hudson River
region in 1912 was 1,O19, 259, 900, valued

pared with 926, O72, 900 brick in 1911,

This was an increase in 1912 of SO, 1877,
600 brick and of l,133, 1877 in value.
The number of operating firms reported
in 1912 was 126. AS in other branches
of the clay-working industry, the num-
Der of active firms reporting is not
equivalent to the number of yards, for
many firms have more than one yard.

A MILLION THOUSAND BRICKS.

1t is difficult to realize the enormous
quantities of brick used annually in
Greater New York. During 1912 the
consumption was over 1000, 900 thou
sand The principal source of this vast
quantity is the Hudson River region,
which extends along both sides of the
river from New York city to Cohoes and
embraces ten counties, nine in New York
and one in New Jersey. Other sources
of supply are the Raritan River region
of New Jersey and the Connecticut
region.
The year 1912 was one of unusual in
terest in the Hudson River region. 1t
opened with an increasing demand for
brick, and the price for common brick
was 81 thousand, compared with 81. %
in 1911. For several. years the use of
cement or concrete in construction ap-
peared to be displacing brick to some
extent, but owing to the strong back to
brick" movement the year 1912 saw in
the New York market change favor
ing brick as the best building material
for many purposes. Influences that
have contributed to this change are the
failure of some concrete buildings, the
advertising campaign carried on by the
brickmakers, and the improved quality
of the Hudson River brick. The average
price was the highest since 1906.
The market product in 1912 was
larger than that of 1911 and would prob
ably have been still greater but for the
scarcity of labor, especially at Haver-
straw, and the strike among the brick
makers in the Newburg district The
strike, however. was of short duration,
but the scarcity of labor drawn away by
large construction enterprises, such as
the Catskill aqueduct, railroad extern
sions, and subway operations, was a
serious drawback to the Hudson River
brickmakers in 1912. This condition
was so serious that the operators re-
sorted to night work and rany-day
work in loading barges and imported
laborers from the South.
An important development during the
year was large increase in the use of
Raritan River brick in New York city,
which has for some years been drawing
on the Raritan River region. In 1912
the demand for this brick was very
much greater than ever before.
On the whole the year may be consid-
cred one of prosperity. The demand
was good, prices were high, the mild
weather toward the end of the year
permitted shipments to its very close,
and while the marketed product was

THE PRESIDENT IN A NEW ROLE

The Indianapolis News, a most able
newspaper, pictures the president of
the United States in a new role. 1t is
rather striking one; and the closer it
is examined, the more truth shines
through the picture.
The News, to use its own expression,
pictures Woodrow Wilson as more than
a national leader-as a local leader.
He is a local leader, it says, in every
community that is cursed with a cor
rupt machine.
"From one end of the land to the
other it continues, land by men of
all parties, he is recognized as the
representative and champion of the
people, the upholder of their right to
govern themselves. And the great
questions that are now pressing for
solution are, for the most part, local
questions. What good people want is
an honest enforcement of the law
courageous dealing with public service
corporations, the breaking of the tie be-
tween politics and vice, clean and eco
nomical ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of
themselves by themselves.
at is for these things that Mr..
Wilson stands not only in the nation,
but in every township, city and ward in
the country. Opposition to machine
and boss rule is, for the time being,
incarnated in him."
1t is perspective from which man
active in large affairs might profitably
take stock of himself. AS big situa-
tons and national problems are refec-
tions of every day conditions and affairs
in the smaller units of the social and
political system, so may the local COM
munities gain inspiration and courage
from the example of big men who are
doing something practical to meet these
situations and solve the big problems.
For the time being, as the News says,
Woodrow Wilson is the man who is
getting close to the people by practical
example in specific action with regard
to one such problem. He is, in truth, a
local leader, because he is a national
leader in problem that is common to
all localities of the nation, even if it is
not universal throughout the cities of
the nation.
And it is bigger thing to be local
leader than it is to be simply a national
figure. Rutland News.

MURDER BY AUTOMOBILE
Very Instructive Prosecution and
Verdict in Chicago.

A verdict, unique in the history of the
Illinois courts at least, has just been re-
turned by a Chicago jury. An employe
OF motor livery concern has been con-
victed of murder with an automobile,
and his sentence fixed at Ia years in the
penitentiary. The man under sentence
is Lawrence Lindbloom. On the night of
August 5, 1910, Joseph Weiss was run
down by motor car driven by Lind
bloom. The driver was arrested and
charged with the victims murder. 1t
was alleged that Lindbloom did not stop
his car until he had run two blocks
beyond the spot where the accident oc-
curred-and then only because bit of
the victims clothing became entangled
in the machinery. Three days after
the accident Weiss died. His major in
jury was a fractured skull Soon after
the death Weiss seven-year-old daugh-
ter died, her death being FASTENED, it
was alleged by the family and friends, by
the accident to her father. Lindbloom
pleaded both ignorance of running down
pedestrian, and also the loss of control
of his car. He said he saw a hat fly up
and thought he had hit some one, but
couldn't stop the machine"
The prosecutor employed unusual
methods in obtaining jury. OF the Il
men on whom he passed, four were
automobile owners. The trial Judge, in
his instructions, said that if the jurors
were satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt
that at the time of the accident Lind
bloom was driving his machine in such
manner as TO endanger human life, they
should find him guilty regardless of
whether the killing was accidental or
intentional. The jury was out an hour
and Is minutes. The States attorney,
in discussing the case afterward, said
that since he assumed office more than
600 charges of speeding had come be-
fore him, and that out of this number
he had found only % in which he felt
justified in entering a nolle prosegui.
He also said that this prosecution would
not be the last, that cases of speeding
and accident to pedestrians, where it
was shown that motor car drivers were
at fault, would be pressed with
vigor.
Lindbloom, the evidence showed, was
driving his car at rate of 80 miles an
hour. This was far beyond the limit set
by ordinance in Chicago. The case un-
doubtedIy will have lettering effect
on careless drivers. The punishment
meeted to Lindbloom seems severe if
the fact that he did not Intentionally
cause the victim death is considered.
But he did drive his car at speed
greater than that permitted by law
pedestrians. This conviction ought to
be lesson to reckless motorists. None
of them, it may be said, is seeking to
injure pedestrians; but many of them
are utterly needless of the chances they
are taking-of the possibilities of acct
dent every time they speed up''-and
trust to luck and skill to save persons
in the street. indianapolis News.

THE MICHIGAN RESULT.

Complaint is often made of the in
elastic character of our written con-
sttution. One of the most sought of
progressive reforms is a liberalizing
of the machinery of constitution
amending, both in State and nation.
Many of the more advanced States of
the West keep their constitutions in a
constant stage of fux by reason of the
easy terms on which these may be re-
written.
Now there is another side to this
story, well illustrated in the recent ex-
periences of Michigan on woman's
suffrage. Last November the State
stood virtually a tie. Had three
hundred votes been turned, Michigan
would have adopted equal suffrage,
presumably to last through the
centuries, since no liberalization of the
ballot can ordinarily be withdrawn.
But this spring, on what is at least a
second thought, even if the suffragists
resent its being designated as a sober
one, the State gives perfectly stu
pendous majority of $4,000 against the
change. Why should bare majority
in November suffice to fix for all the
future something which, only six
months later, an overwhelming majority
of the voters resist? They would never
have had the chance to reconsider haC
there been slight difference in the re.
turns in November
The situation in Oregon illustrates
another phase of the same situation.
The State voted several times on the
suffrage question, and under it's new
and elastic constitution, this had be-
come a recurrent issue, scheduled fol
trial with periodic regularity. Blu
last November the suffragists won
That closed the question. What il
they had lost? Would it have beer
closed? BY no means; it would have
come up again for trial, and ther
again, ETC., as long as the presen
system of amending the constitution
lasts. Surely here is a jug-handlet
arrangement. Defeat on one side il
only postponement, on the other i
closes the chapter.
The moral of it Island The Herald
says this without expressing an opinion
on the suffrage issue itself that con
stitution amending ought not to b.
unattended with difficulty. -Bostol
