WHY NOT TELL HER.
,AR MISS FAJREAX.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am 10 and go about with a girl
the same age. She has been going
about with a young man for two
years-in the meantime with other
young men. Not long ago I was in
troduced to the first man and he now
wants to take me about. Would YOU
advise telling my friend. although 1
hate to make her feel bad
E. L.
Evidently you are a loyal friend
and have proper regard for another
girl 1 certainly would not hurt her
by going out with a man for whom
she may care deeply. On the other
hand. since she accepts attention from
other young men, perhaps he does
not mean very much to her at all. Men
have not the exclusive property" at
titude toward girls who are merely
their friends which girls generally
have. If you like this boy why not tell
her and ask her IL she minds? If, on
the other hand, you are really sure
that she loves him it would be best
perhaps just to quietly refuse his in
vitation and say nothing about it.
Perhaps wou are making a mountain
out of a mole hill and would do best
to accept the masculine viewpoint.
which would be exactly this: Accept
his invitation merely as a little friend
ly incident and tell your girl friend
that you have done so.

NOT VERY IMPORTANT

DEAR MISS FAlRFA&:
Won't you help me out of a pre-
dicament? "A few weeks ago I went
out with a friend whom l admire. l
was hurt by something he said, and
let him know didn't like it. He per-
sisted. for he is the type thta seems
to demand obedience, or rather sub
mission.
Now, since then have not zeen or
heard from him. I should not like to
break our friendship. but still I will
not run after him. He is very busy
but so am /.
ELSIE c.
It isn't a very serious predicament.
On the one pan of the scale there is
your pride, on the other your friend
ship. Which weighs heavier? 1t
does not matter one bit who is in the
right or who is in the wrong; what
counts is who is generous enough to
say. '1 am sorry" OF course, you
don't want to run after" any man; 1;
but, IL you have had a misunderstand-
ing, why not seek an explanation as
simply and naturally as you would
IL your trouble were with a girl.

SEEK EXTENSION OF WATER SYSTEM
 FOR NEW HOUSES
Officials of Housing and Hydraulic Company in
 Consultation Today.

Officials of the Bridgeport Housing company were in consultation this morning with the Hydraulic company in regard to the extension of the wa ter systems of the city to meet the demand which will be made for the new houses about to be constructed under direction from the Federal gov ernment for which $3,000,000 was appropriated.
 One special feature of the new houses will be the provision for kitchen gardens which will receive considerable attention from the com pany. This is a new departure for this city and will be a welcome addi- ton to the average workingman's s home At least 40 feet of space will be allotted each tenant and the soil and other necessary features of inten- sive gardening will also be consider ed. The officials from Washington who have been in consultation with the Housing company for several days visited the Fairfield houses of the company for the purpose of inspect ing the kitchen gardens of the ten ants who have been unusually success full in the cultivation of their plots and who have made a comprehensive study of the subject.

BOY HERO THINKS ONLY OF
 SAVING BROTHER
11-Year Old Throws Other to Safety, and Is Injured
 By Auto.

Julius Kalapor Il years of age, of 471 Bostwick avenue, was knocked down this morning by an automobile owned by the Elm Service company of 166 Elm street and driven by James Ioring of 402 Spruce street The boy suffered a fractured right leg at State and Mountain Grove streets a few minutes after Il o'colck.
 According to those who witnessed the accident, a throng had gathered to view the circus parade. Presently word came that the parade would not come along State street and was talk ing the Fairfield avenue route. Im- mediately the crowd rushed in the di- rection of Fairfield avenue. Among the first to stampede was Julius, car rying his biaby brother in his arms. In his excitement he rushed right in front of the machine, but had pres ence of mind to make a desperate effort to save his little brother, which he did by throwing him away from him when hit by the car.
 This presence of mind on the part of Julius undoubtedly saved the life of the little fellow, and Julius did mot mind having a broken leg in his hap piness at having saved the other.
 The ambulance was immediately summoned from the Emergency Hos pital and after the surgeon had sci the leg temporarily the young hero was removed to the Bridgeport Hos- pital, where it is said he is resting comfortably.

DOYLE SEEKING
 TO RECOVER HIS LIFE SAVINGS
Gave Money to Brother to Deposit For Him and
 Latter Gave to Wife.

Judge John S. Pullman and Attor- ney James A. Marr argued demur- Ter this morning before Judge John P. Kellogg in the Superior Court on the motion to disclose certain neces- sary evidence in the case of the plain tiff, Patrick Doyle, in the suit he has brought against his brother, John Doyle and his wife Johanna. Judge Pullman is appearing for the plain tiff and Attorney Marr for the de- fendant.
 In his early years Patrick Doyle was a sailor and it was his custom to have his brother John care for his money, giving it to him to deposit in a bank for safe keeping. As the years went on he accumulated, as he supposed, a fairly good sized sum of money. He left the sea and wish ing to settle down told his brother to putchase a certain piece of land for him.
 The brother purchased the land but when Patrick wished to take possession of the property he found his brother had put all property and bankbooks in the name of his wife. It is the bankbooks and other papers that would prove the plaintiffs claim that Judge Pullman is seeking tt force the defendants to disclose. At torney Marr to support his conten- ton argued that the motion was not according to legal requirements Judge Kellogg took the papers.

SUPERIOR COURT
 SEPARATES FOUR UNHAPPY COUPLES
Judge Warner Listens to Tales of Marital Infelicity
 and Grants Decrees.

Quite a number of divorce cases were heard this morning by Judge Warner in the Superior Court and for the most part those seeking free dom for one cause or another were given the decree so much desired. Lucy A. Ryan asked for a divorce from Martin Ryan, sad to be fire man in this city, on the ground that he had deserted her immediately af- ter the ceremony, which had really been no marriage. Her request was granted.
 Elvira Francescone Capitone re- hted a number of instances where her husband Giuseppe, had beaten her cruelty with his fists and a stick, oftentimes so severely that it was necessary to call a physician. Her evidence was corroborated by num- Der of witnesses who also testified that the husband had left the wife some few years ago and had done nothing for her since. Decree granted on ground of desertion.
 The case of Mary F. Hatch against Frank w. Hatch which was carried over from last week on the ground of insufficient evidence, was granted this morning as Mrs. Hatch had a witness in court who testified to the cruelties the husband had inflicted on his wife, wrecking her health. De- cree on ground of intolerable cruel ty.
 Henry J. Stegeman, machinist by trade, told on the stand that he wished to move to Fairfield to curtail expenses and also be&ause he found the money he was giving his wife tc pay bills was being used in other ways, his wife left him in 1912 and refused to live with him again. His story was sul,stantiated and he receiv- ed his decree on the ground of deser- ton.

He is in Washington to cooperate with American aircraft officials and believes that pioneer transatlantic flight should be attempted without delay.
 An enterprise which must be car ried out as soon as possible" General Brancker said, ''is the flight of the Atlantic. There is really no reason why a considerable number of big aeroplanes and sea planes should not cross the Atlantic during next sum- mer.'
 Gen. Brancker disclosed the fact that the British air council had def- nitely decided upon transatlantic air craft flights in order to find route for the movement of American made aircraft to the front. His mission in this city has to do with arrangements for the pioneer flight in which it is hoped that the United States govern ment will co-epersta.

The Czecho oSlovaks now control the southern section of the Trans Siberian railroad from Samara, on the Volga river, to Tchelyabinsk, and the Siberian main line on the east to Nova Nikolayevsk; also the northern branch from Tchelaybinsk to Yeka. terinburg.
 The conflict between the Czecho- Slovak forces and the Soviet govern ment began on May 26 when the So- viets attempted to enforce the order of Leon Trotzky, minister of war, to disarm all the Czecho-Slovak forces on their way to Vladivostok for trans portation overseas. Clashes occurred in Penza. Tchelyabinks, Novo Niko1- ayevsk, Omsk and several other places.
 The Czecho-Slovak organizations originally numbered about 10000 men. Of these. nearly 10000 reached Vladivostok The rest. involved in an effort to resist disarmament are chiefly centered about Tchelyabinsk.
 War Minister Trotzky has ordered the mobilization in the Volga region of all men of the last five military classes to move against the Czecho, Slovak forces.

Italians would have driven the Aus trians back across the river before this but for the nature of the open fighting, which an American on this front said reminded him of the In- dian combats in the old days. Night fighting and bushwhacking methods are necessary, although they are not favored by the military authorities because of the confusion and danger of firing on their own men, especially where large bodies of troops are en- gagged. Another difficulty has been the similarity in color between the Italian and the other uniform.
 The Austrian losses have been ex- tremely heavy. Although there has been much sharp fighting, there have been many lulls during which the only distraction of the armies is watching the bombing operations of the rival aviators.
 The fighting on the Montel1o pla- teau continues to be severe, as it fS felt by the Italians that the loss of

 Glittering Glory. ALADDIN AND LAMP IS GREAT SPECTACLE Tents Filled With Capacity Audience Which is Highly
 Enthusiastic.

The happiest day of all the year and girls all the way from seven to 70 by the thousands know that the cir GUS is again in town. They know it because they saw the circus parade this morning all the way from the gorgeous heralds who ride behind tho police escort in front, to the time honored calliope which brought up in the rear of the procession. They saw animals of all kinds, and ladies and gentlemen in shining costumes and bands galore and magnificent wagons and everything that every boy has seen in a circus parade almost from the time Noah managed the first one into the Ark.
 It was wonderful parade. It al- ways is wonderful, and, somehow, it seems to grow more and more won- derful each year. First, as has been said, came the ten gorgeous heralds, and then came a marvellous band wagon pulled by "A beautiful horses, the musicians playing gay music that was quite in keeping with the bril- liant uniforms, Then came the big gold and red and yellow wagons that promised beasts of all sorts.

GERMAN PRESS OPENLY SCORES
 KAISER SPEECH

Geneva, June 21.-Several German newspapers openly attack the speech made by Emperor William at German great headquarters on the occasion, of his anniversary.
 The Post of Munch says the feast could have been celebrated by measure of cIemency and humanity instead of with a speech of warlike tenor against England without con- taining words of thanks to his own people. The paper concludes that the Anglo-Saxon races are powerful enough to accept the emperors chal- lenge-

Italian Army Headquarters. Thurs day, June 20-(By the Associated Press)-The second phase of the Aus trian offensive. featured by attacks to the right and left of Valstagna, along the Brenta river, and in the noun tains, should logically begin soon, now that the effort on the Piave has failed.
 It is felt that if the Austrians do not renew their efforts to penetrate to the plains through the Brenta re- zion and taking Monte Grappa, it would be an acknowledgment of de- feat and their inability to carry out the ambitious plan launched week ago.
 The situation, however, is still re- garded as most serious, and all pre- parations have been made to meet any new offensive.
 Along the Piave the Italian posi- tions are virtually unchanged. The Austrians are fighting well, according to the Italians, but the latter are out chasing them. It is believed that the

AUSTRIANS MAY
 DEMAND BREAD

Copenhagen, June 21-The situa- tion in Prague, Bohemia, and the in- dustrial centers in that district, says the Neue Freie Presse of Vienna, has become so serious that the Austrian government will either be compelled to increase the bread ration or run the risk of still further exciting the working people. In the latter event, the newspaper declares, railroad communication would be cut off and a revolution would break out.

This mileage is held "by all Ameri- can" forces under command of Amer ican officers, located at six different places along the fighting line. Other Americans are at the front with British and French units.
 Members of the committee were told again that there was no thought of diminishing the movement of troops across the Atlantic because of the op- eration of submarines off the Amerl- can coast.
 After the conference Representative Caldwell of New York said that as far as America is concerned ''the war will begin next September" By that time materials now being made will be ready in great abundance for making the presence of American troops felt by the enemy, and the fighting plan ned for the United States soldiers will have begun.
 Fighting on the Italian front was discussed and military authorities de- clared it has not reached a stage to be regarded as serious for the Allies.
 Members of the committee said a sufficient number of rapid fire guns now is being made here to supply the needs of American troops and that the output will be increased as needed.
