Hartford. Feb. 26 Compenaation Commissioner George Chandler was asked today how the recent deci- sion of the supreme court affected npleyers of less than five persons In. reply MT. Chandler said
 4Fhe decision of the supreme court makes. no change whatever in the status of employers and employees under the act. Tn other words, every employer of less than five persons is under the act but every such employ CT can secure exernp on from the act the compensation commissioners of his district either by personal presenta- ton or by registered mail At the same time any such employer must serve notice upon his e1npleye or erll- enap1oyes by tI1e use Of form No. T. In the case of a new ei1ploye this service of form No. takes effect i'm smediateIy, but in the case Of an old enp1oye it does not take effect until thirty days after service.
 Service of form No. g upon the 7compensation commissioner does not need to be renewed In serving form No 2, on the enpIoye 1t is not neces- sary for the enpfoye to sign the same The employer simply fills in the employees name and hands the should exercise care further to serve this paper on the ennploye in the presence Of a witness or keep 9 copy thereof In other words he should be in a position to come to hearing before the commissioner and prove that. he actually did serve the paper upon the ernp1oye.,s

John D. Brock physical director of the Y M. O. A, dates the hegi ming Of his interest ih physical edueatfon work back to the time when he was on tlae leaders corps of q Brooklyn Y M. c. A. Since that tines the scope Of his work and experience has widened and developed rapidly. He graduated from the Springffeld F M c. A College. an institution providing astechnIcal training in physical eel1- cation, in 1910. with the degree of BacheIor of Physical Education.
 " While there. his winning peraonaIity and enthusiastic interest in all the activities of the college. especially along the line of athletics. as well as his ability as a student. won for him popularity that has followed him throughout his career thus far
 ATr- Brock has had wide experience in playground work in New ork city and in boys camps in the Adiron- Jacks and the Maine woods. He has been connected with the Bridge port 1T. M. c. A. for the past i've years during which time he has done

The classes of grammar school, high school and employed boys are eonducted by Harry V. Abbott, the assistant director. who comes from Chester, Pa~. having gotten his first experience in physical training work In the T. M c. A of that place. His technical training in this line of work was obtained q the Harvard Summer school
 A new departure this season which indicates the up-to-date standard of physical training in the I'M C. A. is the efficiency test, which IS car ried on in the boys classes. Twice during the indoor season every boy undergoes a physical examination by the director, MT. Brock, who has made a special study Of this branch. A record is kept of the physical com dition of the boy and special note made of any points which need spe- cfal attention in his training At stated intervals written reports are sent to the parents giving the rat ing of the boy on his ability in gym nastics, athletics and aquattcs and also his physical condition as shown by the examination and improve ments indicated. This acquaints the parents with the work the boys are doing and the progress that is being made.

Paris, Feb. 24-France Is wild with enthusiasm over it's famous z5 gun. This rapid fire field cannon was in vented seventeen years ago by Colonel Deport, aided by friend. The 75 mi Ilimeter gum has proved superior to the 777 miIHmeter gun of the Ger mans. The French 75 has a range of six and half lxilonneters, com pared 10 the German five and one quarter. Ii carries 500 projectiIes, while the German gun has only SzS. In many other ways the 75 is SUI perior. For one thing, it fires twenty five shots per minute, while the 5z fires only fifteen. France recently held ITS day. in honor Of the fa1la- ous gum Souvenirs of the cannon were sold, and $700, ,OOO was raised to provide needs for the soldiers in the trenches
