OPERATING AUTOMOBILES TOO
SOON.

The fatal automobile accident on Sun
day near Rutland, in which an inexperi-
enced driver lost his life, raises a ques-
ton whether longer instruction In the
theory of operating a car is not advis-
able before the beginner is allowed ac'
tually to operate the vehicle In this
case the victim had but just purchased
the machine which he was operating and
had had very little experience in run
ming a car before he essayed the direction
of the automobile with skilled opera
tor at his side. Approaching a section
OF highway with 50-foot declivity on
one side, he lost control of the machine
and plunged over the edge OF the bank.
Explanation of the cause OF the acct
dent is not clear; but the plunge may
have been due TO one of a number OF
faults in operating or TO defects IN the
road. Presumably il was one OF the
former causes; possibly il was the pres,
sure on the wrong lever or the turning
OF the steering wheel the wrong way, a
mistake which is quite likely to be done
by the person not well drilled in the
function of each part of the operating
mechanism of the automobile. To avoid
the possibility of such a mistake the
prospective driver of an automobile
should be given longer theoretical in
struction from a capable instructors he
should sit by the skilled drivers side
for at least a distance of 100 miles
closely watching the manner OF opera
tion all the while, before he should be
permitted TO take his seat at the steer
ing.wheel. To jump from ignorance OF
theoretical operation Of car, or from
only slight acquaintance with the opera
tion, into actual handling is too long a
move entirely. II is too hazardous alike
for the inexperienced driver and for the
other vehicles on the highway.

The non-arriyal Of one of the jurors, Walter H. Leo Of North StonlnSton, who was in the jury on the trial Of George Kamorowsky and John Smith on the charge of stealing chickens in AIontville last September, caused the superior court to be 50 minutes late in opening here Wednesday morning and it was finally learned that the juror was sick in bed at his home.
 Judge Greene then told the remain ins Il men that they would be eX- cuSed from any further consideration of the case. The evidence in the case had all been presented on Tuesday and all but one Of the arguments had been made. States Attorney Hull was to make the final argument when court came in Wednesday morning.
 When it was found that the Mont vile chicken stealing case had been broken up by the sickness of the juror, a jury was chosen for the trial of William Nicholas of Attleboro. who was accused of burglary at the store of Charles $. Fairclough at No. 2S5 West Thames street on the night of July 3Ist. Nicfoias who was arrested as Q. vagTant in New London, pleaded not guilty to- the charge. He is de- tended by Attorney Rodericll NJ. Doug lass. Major Hull, the states : attorney. is assisted in the prosecution by John D. Hall, prosecuting attorney for the city court of Norwich from which the man was bound over.
 The following was the jury chosen:
 Nathan s. Bushnell. Robert Stott, Norwich: Appleton Main. James G. Wood, Preston; William c Sherman, Colchester. Albertus (. BurdicI1. Gris- wold: Rowland s. Browning and Roger F'oote, Lebanon; Forrest C. LeffingwelI. Bozrah; James N. Huntington. Frank lin: Frederick Rabbit, Spraglle; Charles $. Ray, Salem.
 Testimony for the State.
 Charles s. Fairclougi1, proprietor of the store burglarized, was the first witness. He told of finding the rear door open on the morning of August 1st and of finding the cash register in an adjoining lot and to missing pen nies trick cigars, pennies ,>.l wrappers and candy. Articles of this kind that were found in a dress suit case that Nicholas had when he was arrested were identified by Mir. Fairclough. The burglary took place on a Friday night or Q Saturday morning while there was heavy rain storm going on.
 Constable Elmer E. kenerson testi- fled to arresting Nicholas whom he saw sitting in Riverside park in New London about a. m. on August 1st The man ran when he saw the officer coming.

 Prayers That Avail.
 Rev. F. E. Livingood fol owed with an interesting talk on the subject of Availing Prayers.
 Rev. Mir. Livingood spoke from the standpoint of Cre who has seen ac- tive service on the foreign field as he was for three years a missionary in Harpoort, Turkey. He said while he was in Turkey he learned more about the true value of prayer than he had previously known. He said missionaries are often driven to their knees to pray to God for strength. Here at home We are surrounded bv friends to whom We can in many cases turn for aid. Tn the foreign missionary field there are but few to whom the missionary can turn for help and when he is faced by new problems he resorts to prayer and arises from his knees strengthened God Is our father and has taught us to call on him When a child wants thing he generally asks his father for fl. When We pray to God He
