 animation in Police Court

waiying defense and examination, Donat Proulx of 50 Lyman street. Holyoke. Mass, since August and until a few days ago, manager of the Newark Shoe store at SPA Main street, was held for the June term of superior court by Judge James T. Meskill in police court today on charges of defrauding the 'New Ha- ven" road by means of clever scheme of falsifying shipping state ments as to stock received by freight. Attorney M. D. Sake succeeded in securing reduction of bail from $1,5O0 to $1,OO0. He stated that he believes his client will be able to se- cure the latter figure today. Up to late hour he had been unable to se- cure bail, although Holyoke relatives and friends had sent word that it would be raised. Prosecuting Attor- ney George w. Klett offered no objec- tion to bail be reduced. No testimony was introduced although special agents of the New Haven" road, other authorities and officials of the NeWdTk OuOe SIOIcS SyuuiSdtS WCAS present.
 Judgment was suspended upon pay ment of costs of $9.42 each in the cases of Harry A. c. Fay of 19 All ston Heights street, Boston, resident 1 manager of Frank c. Robins, Inc, dealers in automobiles and auto sup 1 plies of Hartford, and Frank E. Mor- 1 gan of 34 Chestnut street, Hartford,

 charged with violation of the motor vehicle statutes.
 Morgan was summoned by Traffic l Supervisor Clarence Lamphere about l ten days ago on charges of not having 1 an operators license and operating a

 the rear. It developed that the car
 had been temporarily furnished by
 the concern of which Fay is manager
 to take the place of one that was be- l ing repaired. Continuances were | necessary because of Fay's being out

 being without an operators license
 was accidental and with no intent to
 violate the law. Fay testified that he
 had no direct knowledge of the car
 being rented without having proper l license markers but, if there had been violation, he was willing to take
 his medicine"

FIRST BAPTIST

Our Superintendent of Sunday
School reports light attendance for
last Sunday. But when the day is
taken into consideration This is
not at all surprising. We seldom
experience a more disagreeable day
even in Missouri where it seems we
have almost as many sudden chan
ges as come to any other state in
the union
1t is to be hoped that no one will
become irregular in attendance be-
cause he or she lost out on the gold
star last Sunday. Just remember
that many of us are in the same
boat and that you stand just as good
a chance to make an A number |
record as many others. Be on hand
next Sunday.
A SERIES of revival services will
begin in our church next Sunday
and will continue for an indefinite
time The pastor will have charge
and will do the preaching. The ef-
fectiveneSS Of his work will depend
upon the loyal support of the church
membership If failure should fall
to our lot because some Of Us, for
some puerile reason fail to do our
duty, We will he accountable to the
Almighty for that failure. We may
be able to square ourselves with our
fellow MortalS by the use of some
far fetched argument but the Master
is not going to he satisfied with an
