 Patrolsnen attached to the Second Precinct Station were busy today con- graduating Lieut.. O'Leary on the oc- casion of his 20th anniversary and the modest lieutenant, with that never failing smile, was as happy as could be. Nevertheless, he did not let the glad occasion interfere with his daily work.
 Lieut.. O'Leary begins his 21st year as a member of the Bridgeport po- lice department with a record to be proud of. His ability to handle men and keep them under discipline, yet without disturbing the peace of their minds, has made him a valuable ad- junct to the department. He has the we'll wishes of the many citizens with whom he has came into contact and The Farmer wishes him Godspeed and continued popularity and success .,n- til he may be able to celebrate his silver anniversary.

 Today; Law Is Of

1t will be the part of wisdom for birds along the shore to keep under cover and. especially to shun the haunts of men. for the next few days. The law is off today. and eager nim- rods went thirsting for the lives of as many of these birds as they can draw a bead on. The birds whose lives are in danger from now en, up to January 1, are snipe, sandpipers, ga1limule. and mudhens.
 Other birds which must have a care for themselves, as the law is off on them, toe, are golden blower, black breasted pieveE, greater and lesser ye1iewlegs. Wilson's snipe and iacksnipe. The terms of all the game wardeas and of the special protec- tors expired last night, but this will make little difference in the fish and game department, as all of the war dens have heen reappeinted.

CUBANS ORGANIZE AVIATION CORPS TO
 FIGHT IN FRANCE:

Havana, Cuba, Sept. 1-Co1onel Manuel Coronado, members of the Cuban Senate and editor of the news paper La Discussion, has added a new phase to Cuba's alliance with the United States in the war against Ger many by organizing an aviation unit which, it is announced, will be offer ed to France, with complete equip ment, in the near future. Though other means of cooperation have as sumed shape here since, Cuba's dec 1aration of war against Germany on April 8 last, it is believed probable, from the enthusiasm shown by its members, that the ''Escadrille Gu baine'', as the flying unit will be call ed, will be the first body of fight, ing men from Cuba to serve on French soil.
 Colonel Coronado's plans called for body of men of twenty-five trained aviators to comprise the escadrille, but already thirty youths, who are representatives of the best fain- lilies of Cuba, have volunteered to take the prescribed aviation course and in dividual1y bear the the expense of their airplanes and equipment. Many of the volunteers for the escadrIlle are graduates of French universities, and all speak French and are aviation enth usiasts Senator Coronado has just returned from New York, where
 he conferred with officials of the Aero club of America and airplane manufacturers over the details of the escadrille's organization.
 'I believe that the escadrille will be the most practical and at the same time the most appropriate way of showing Cuba's sympathy with the cause of the Allies," said Colonel Cor onado. The colonel has asked the Navy Department in Washington for an arrangement by which the Cuban l aviators may undergo their prelim-
 mary training at the Navy aviation
 school at Pensacola, Fla
 While for obvious reasons the de- tails of many of the comparative war measures of Cuba and the United | States are not permissible of publica- 1 tion.. substantial progress has been | announced officially here in the CO., ordinative work of the Cuban and United States Army and Navy Gener- al Staffs
 1 Cuban military commissioners will | shortly announce the promotions of I 288 officers in the Cuban army, in
 keeping with the enlargement of the

 sible duty later in Europe.

Typewriter Needs of Austria Lead
 To Future Sales

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Sept. 1- After war orders for typewriters are already being booked in Austria in large numbers. says the Berlin Loka lanzeiger, which adds that the Aus trian depot of an American company Is making special offers of machines for post war delivery on an initial deposit of $50.
 The Germany typewriter makers are unable to supply machines under six months owing to scarcity of la Dor and lack of raw materials, New ertheless they are overwhelmed with orders, one firm having as many as ten thousand on it's books. An un- avoidable result of this state of af- fairs is reckless and not always over- honest traffic in second hand ,ma- chimes, at prices far exceeding those for new ones,

How Miss Barrymore
Decided to Wear Short
Skirts, for First Time

How Ethel Barrymore, Metro star,
consented to wear short skirts for
the first time in her career by ap-
pearing as an Alaskan dance-hall girl
in The White Raven" the magnifi-
cent Metro production which will be
shown at the Lyric theatre tonight,
forms an interesting story.
When the original story was re-
cited to Miss Barrymore by Maxwell
Karger, general manager Of the
Rolfe and Columbia studios, and dis
cussed by Director George d. Baker,
1t met with Miss Barrymore's approx
al. The strength of the story and
its fine dramatic possibilities were
instantly recognized by the star.
Several Of the preliminary scenes
had been made. when Mr.. Baker be-
gan preparations for the biggest. in
volving the duplication of one Of the
most famous dance halls or "honka-
tonks" in the Klondike. His assist
ant, Charles Hunt, had obtained ac-
cess to a valuable collection of pho
tographs made in the Klondike at
the time of the gold rush. A picture
Of dance hall character. showing
her in knee-length skirts and other
gaudy attire. was handed to Miss
Barrymore with the request that she
have her costume duplicate that one
shown in the dance hall habitue.
Miss Barrymore gasped.
+. But Mr.. Baker. I have never ap-
peared in short skirts on the stage
in my life. have refused to play
roles that required Them" she said.
Miss Barrymore" replied Baker,
II would not ask anything but what
would add to the dramatic values of
the role you play. l am sure you
will always work for supreme re-
suits in your photoplays."
"Of course l WILL" smilingly re-
turned the star. II will go to the
costumer's now"

fer to tour the famous Red Widow
company and later with one or two
others, after which she Joined the

1t was while dancing in the Foil
les" that Miss Pennington attracted
the attention of the Famous Players,
and was offered long-term contract.
The success which she scored in
Susie Snowflake" and "The Rain
bow Princess" prove conclusively
that they had made no mistake In

still another triumph in the winsome
character Of little Justina Rowland

Students returning to the Brightm
Young college this year will be de-

the way of renovation and equipment.
The girls in the domestic science and
arts departments will probably have
the largest share in these improve

building which has materialiZed in

The college has had the walls of the
room done over in ivory and warm
gray. Wobyca will place in the din

In addition to this, the college has
installed in the kitchen more than

equipment. There are about forty
individual cooking laboratory desks.
These are Of the very best and latest

B. Y. COLLEGE
TO OPEN SCHOOL
SEPTEMBER "a

In fixing September "a as the date
for the opening of school at. the B. Y.
college, the school authorities had in
mind the welfare of the land in its
present crisis and also Of the men and
women whose education must be safe
guarded during this particularly try
ing time. That these results should
be accomplished, they are commenc-
ing school only one week later than
usual. By September "a the rush on
the farms will be over and many of
the boys and girls had far better be
in school than idle. By starting one
week later, too, many students who
could not leave before will be able
to enter when school first starts,
which means much to his interest
and opportunities in school work. By
commencing school as near the usual
time Of starting as possible the gen.
eral atmosphere of the work will ap-
proach more nearly the normal
very desirable atmosphere just now.
BY commencing as planned, the
here and in Europe, and especially
ty of its students to obtain the bene-
fit of the standard "thirty-six" week
year, and to be of the most use to
his country in the way of productive
employment, too.
Plans are made or are being made
which will help the boy and girl who
will not be able to get in by the COM
mencing. If he is a week or two late,
arrangements can be made with the
teachers for the making up of his
work missed, and in cases where
work keeps the men and women out
longer, winter courses may be pro-
vided, If the students make their
wants known.
A big demand is being made for
the normal students, in fact. a big
ger demand than ever before. Sal
aries for teachers have advanced,
too, SO that B. Y. c. graduates and
normal trained students are finding
this training profitable.

the course in training practice. 1t
