TIN auto, large and red and fast,
No doubt is very fine;
- Give me sleigh and pretty girl
And all the world is mine
AS to the music of the bells
We jingle down the line.
The air outside is fresh and crisp
And makes us closer sit,
But still it does not crowded seem
The very slightest bit.
Indeed, a seat that's snug and small
Makes a decided hit.
Then school may keep or it may not
For anything l care:
I'm learning things not in the books
I never saw them there
And If they're in the colleges
I'd like to hold that chair.
For winter pleasures worth the while
I'll let the auto slide a.. d.
If I can drive a gentle horse
Out for a cutter ride .r..
And with the only girl on earth
Tucked snugly by my side.

TRUSTEE UPHELD
IN ESTATE SUIT
Surrogate Says Farmers Loan
and Trust Acted Within
It's Rights.

Surrogate Fowler has confirmed the
report Of the referee in the proceeding
brought by Joseph Kronenthal. one or
the legatees under the will Of Wolf kro-
nenthal. crtcising the management or
the estate by the Farmers Loan ana
Turst Company as trustee.
In the accounting of the Farmers
Loan and Trust Company, 10 which OBJ
jections we're made by Joseph kronen-
thai. il is shown that all the real estate,
about five hundred parcels representing
more than one hundred estates for which
the trust company is trustee. Is turned
over 10 the management of the real es-
tate firm Of Mooyer & Msrston. All the
contracts for repairs and supplies for
these properties are made with the Bea-
yer Construction Company, of when
Russell Marston OF the real estate firm,
is tho principal stakeholder. Msrston is
the son of Edwin s Marston, president
Of the Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany
John r. Fenion. counsel for Joseph
Kronenthal. said that II was illegal for
the trust company 10 permit Russell
Marston to collect the profts disclosed In
the proceeding. He objected 10 the
several profits being charged TO the es-
tate.
ON the objection OF Joseph kronenthal
the matter was sent 10 Robert l.. Red
field as referee. on his report 10 the
Surrogates' Court Surrogate Fowler
holds that the trust company had not
been guilty of "wrongdoing.'
The trust company paid the cost of the
reference, which covered a period OF
more than year. the expenses amount
ing TO s2.o1S Mr. Redfield said in his
report
1T may be conceded that strict re-
gard for the ethical side of the case
would probably have resulted in the Sc
lection of some other contractor, but IT
does not follow that the trustee has been
guilty of any legal wrong for which the
law will hold il responsible"
Surrogate Fowler in his decision, in
which he charged the trust company
with s592, the profit added by the con-
struction company for the work OF the
sub-contractors, said:
NO doubt q trustee in the manage
ment of real estate committed to him
must exercise such prudence and econ
omy as an ordinarily prudent man would
exercise in the management Of his own
estate"
The testimony showed that request
had been made to the trust company 10
change the agents, but that Mr.. Cardoza
said a change would not be advantage
Gus to the estate. One of the properties
OF the estate is a six story apartment
house on Madison avenue, back OF the
