being produced and the northern
counties. with 100000 acres of the

homes and prosperity to a quarter Of
million families. Every forty acres
viii make a good living for an indus
trious family To occupy the soil is
no experiment The state fair is an
institution that is the key to desired
publicity When a million people

Sculpture and Ceramic departments
everywhere one sees the name OF !
Pierpont Morgan affixed to object
after object either as a donor or
lender of all these precious things
And in the storage vaults of the mu-
scum there is hanged case after case,
containing all of his Egyptian treas
ures save the 80 paintings now on
view, that are to be shown next jan
uary in the new north wing that is
to be devoted to exhibiting these Nor
gan treasures and nothing else.
Many Priceless Loans.
In itself this collection that is YET
to be seen is the greatest group OF
art objects ever brought together by
one man in the world. It's estimated
value of $75,000,000 does not include
many things that Mr. Morgan had
loaned or given to the museum be
fore his death Chief of these is the
Garland Morgan collection of Chinese
porcelains that has no peer anywhere
in the world. Mr. Morgan paid $3.50
900 for the Garland collection alone.
and to this he added piece after piece
Zone hawthorne vase cost 100000
from his private collection until TO-
day the objects in that one room are
worth at least $1,500,000 Then there
is the Mazarin tapestry, THE King
dom of Heaven for which Mr. Nor
gan is reported TO have paid s5O0,OOo
ie nd0 I'D nv oil 11fhApI-
ties on textiles as the finest piece OF
tapestry in the world. The Hoent-
schel collection of Gothic and French
Renaissance furniture and decorations
cost $1,250,000 and of these ne pre-
scented the Gothic portion outright to
the museum
Although it is not so SNOWY az some
OF the collections of paintings, tins
department of the museum Is its
greatest single feature from the view
point OF educational value. In the
place where the Mazarin tapestry and
the Hoentschel collection are shown
together with the Morgan Nero
vingian collection from the seventh
century--is the splendid gift OF Mrs
Russell Sage, the famous Bolles col
lection of Colonial furniture, comprlS-
ing $50 pieces, for which Mrs. Sage is
reported to have paid 100000. This
wing OF Decorative Arts also shelters
some early Gothic sculptures ana
wood carvings, loaned by Mr.. Morgan
in the past, that are among its chiei
treasures.
Though we speak of monetary Yalc9
of these collections and objects N
definite terms, they are the valuations
placed on them at the time they wefs
presented to the museum or acquired
by 1t through purchase. Consequent
ly those figures give little idea OF the
present value of the collections. o"lRg
to the fact that within the last quar-
ter of century the intrinsic value o.
all art objects has advanced in a"
extraordinary way.

rage Cost Has Gone Down.

Ten years later. in 1904, the num-
Der of pieces handled by each employee
during the year had increased to 49,
1856, and the average cost per each
mail piece had gone down to 1.53. In
1912 the average cost had gone down
to 134; the number of employees, a
trifle below that of 1910, stood at
pieces handled over 100000 900, and
the number of pieces handled by each
employee during the year reached high
water with the figure 60,504
The explanation of this high degree
of efficiency is to be found, according
to Mr.. Lewis, in the fact that the low
postal rates have stimulated business
and have consequently almost auto
matically forced complete utilization
of the plant. obviously" says Mr.
Lewis, "the amount of traffic will de-
pend on the rate" If a letter costs
but two cents, the public will write
many letters; if it costs five cents, the
public will either have to find another
means of communication or else com
municate less. The low performance
represents unutilized time of employees
caused by rates which are too high
to assist the traffic Officials of the
post office department say they fully
appreciate these facts and have deyel.
oped the efficiency policy OF the de
partmeut to accord with them.

Harvard Gets Jump On Yale By Touchdown Early I'm Game
 After Great Run By Mahan
BIRMINGHAM TAKES STREET TO DIRECT
 TRAFFIC TORRENT
Never In History Has the City Been So swarmed
 With Automobiles

| Never in the history of Bridgeport, 1 say police officials, has such crush of automob piles passed through the city as today on the way to New Haven. From early morning until early af- .ternoon Fairfield avenue, from the Fairfield line to Stratford, was crowd l ed @continuously. The handling of traffic developed into one of the big gest jobs handled by the local depart ment in it's history As 1t was Fair field avenue proved inadequate to han dle the hundreds of cars, many being sent through side streets and over the Barnun avenue route The greatest crush was seen on Fairfield avenue from the railroad viaduct to Park avenue. Shortly be- a continuous line. The blue of Yale. crimson of Harvard and varied colors ! of outer wraps comprised to make a brilliant appearance.
 At one time Superintendent of Police Birmingham took personal charge of traffic in front of the police and chari- ties building He showed that he can handle traffic first hand as well as di- rect it from his office. Automobiles were sent down tue avenue two a abreast for a time and numerous other cars sent up Harrison street and through side streets over the Barnum avenue route. At Harrison street Sergeant Jas. Walker assisted the regular detail. For a time Motorcycle Policeman GOrgas dismounted and aided at this junction. Chauffeur BurHson of the emergency hospital ambulance was a voluntary assistant to Superintendent Birming- ham, The veteran head of the local department received many greetings from friends and those wEsc know him by reputation among the travellers from southwestern parts of the state and New York
 There were no symptoms of speed ing, the police explaining that the cars were punched too closely to make even an attempt possible. The speed ing is expected more on the return trip tonight when the autoists will be in hurry to get home. There will be special police details on duty until nearly midnight
 Traffic was going through the city at the rate of IS machines per minute. This was a. fair average from g to 2 O'Clock. Traffic officers in Bridge port were active in directing the mo- torists and helped to divert the crush by utilizing side streets wherever pos sfhiess
 Tn Milford two traffic officers were on duty through the day.

sFRENCH

Paris, Nov 21-The official conmuni- cation given out in Paris this after noon reads as follows:
 ..In Belgium our artillery at Nieu- port secured the advantage over that of the enemy. From Dixmude to the south of Ypres there was intermittent .cahnonading on our part and theirs
 .tAt Hollebeke two attacks of Ger man infantry were immediately re- pulsed From the Belgian frontier to the Disc there was nothing to re- port.
 Tn the region of the Aisne and in Champagne the advantage gained by our batteries over the artillery of the enemy has become more marked and has prevented the Germans from com tinuing the construction of certain trenches begun by them.
 Tn the vicinity of yerdun and in the Vosges we have made progress. At certain points we have established our trenches at less than thirty yards from the Herman position

REICHSTAG PLANS
 SHORT SESSION

Berlin. Nov. 20. via London, Nov. 21-The coming session of the Reich stag, which opens in December, is ex pected to be short one. It is likely it will only concern itself with the voting of a new five billion war credit and the ratification of the various emergency laws promulgated by the Bundsrath. The budget will be laid before the Reichstag at it's session in February.
 The steady progress reported day by day fEom> the eastern theatre of war is most encouraging to the military critics and the public and little anxiety as to the safety of the frontier dis tricts is now manifested.
