WILL TEST BOAT ON
 LANTERN HILL POND
August o. Mueller of stonineton Has
 Designed New Motor Craft.

The brought has a new boat de- signer in the person of August O. Mueller, of Stonington, who has just completed a model for a motor craft, which is unique in some of its fea- lures. In his plans Mr. Mueller has departed from the popular V bot tom type and is working out theory of fat bottomed construction, which he is confident will offer even less resistance to water than the V bot tom style. For demonstration purpos- es he intends to install portable mo- tor. The craft is especially designed for fresh water sailing and it is due to receive a tryout on Lantern Hill pond as soon as the ice breaks up. While he is being assisted in the con struction work by Frank R. Tracy, the ideas embodied in this particular type are all his own.

MARIAN LAMBERT-The pitifuI
case of Miss Lambert sounds the
alarm for a new message. Speak
unto this people that they go for
ward" The time is at hand and one
great hour has been struck upon
Gods clock of time. True, every
prophet of a freer and more spiritual
faith faces cheap estimates by hos
tile critics and superficial supporters,
but today is loudly making its stern
demands. Death, murder, suicide,
these are to be laid at sOCiety's front
door.
Motherhood must cease to be a
disgrace because it has not been
blessed by some sacred water and a
ministerial fee. Childhood should
not be without honor because it lacks
the sanction of a religious trust or
some legal fraternity.
There is no illegitimaCy, and he
who asserts that the child born out
Of wedlOck and yet conceived in holy
love is other than legitimate is guilty
Of the worst infidelity.
Our present social mind is wrong,
fatally wrong. It is as idiOtic as is
the gibbering among the inmates Of
an asylum who say: This is the
life; or the incompetent housewife
who keeps coal in the bed, -four in
the bathtub and uses her wedding
silver to poke the fire, yet says:
This is hOmemaking."
The time must come when we
learn our age-oId lesson anew. The
east can teach us morality as well as
mathematics. 1t is our Christian
mOnOgamy that is our ruin. Con-
stantinOpIe has no fallen" MOslem

PISS, the position assumed will inev-
itably induce a class bias.
The work Of a judge forces him to
regard the conservation of the stat
utes as the ill-impOTtant thing; it
sets limitations within which the
race must move and have its being;
it assumes the province of God, the
very ultimate of proclamation. It riv-
cts the eye Of such a worker to the
pinpOint of man-made law and blinds
him to the universe. The unavOida-
bic consequence is that the person so
envirOned becomes ignorant and
malevOlent That is what the G. o.
P. offers the nation as an agent
through which it's hopes and aspira-
lions for a noble and higher life may
find reaization.-I. N. Albright.
OBSERVATIONS.-Let the church
die, because it bIockades the path to
prosperity for the producing cOmmu-
nifty.
ParceIing the earth into monopo-
lies is a manifestation of iendish-
ness.
The artisan who votes for law
makers deserves the humiliations
which the pharasaical squabblers in
fliCt upon him.
Fancy those imploring the Naza-
rene to Danish deception from their
hearts who order commercial trav-
elers to tell customers that little or
no profit is obtained from cOmmOdi-
ties that are sold at 100 per cent
above cost price!

Hatred of capitalism is defensible,
for many destroy themselves through
inability to endure the miseries that
its brutal conditions impose upon
them.
