 Corporal Carl Anderson. after be- ing in the service since June. 1916. and going through the Mexican bor- der trouble and the big show lover there," is back at his home here. mus tered out. He comes back here still Iimping from the effects of a wound received in France that has kept him in hospitals of the army service for about year and he comes back with the old time enthusiasm that made off again for the Mexican border. where they seems a chance for more fighting, if his leg would permit it, which he hopes will be the case by the time anything starts.
 Corporal Anderson was mustered out at Camp Devens. where he has been a patient at the base hospital for months. He fought as a member of the 1o2d infantry. part of the 26th division, and was in the first line trenches when he was injured by the accidental discharge of a very light pistol. He leaves the service with a record of twenty years in the nation al guard, in the Spanish war, at the contribution to the defence of his country. Corporal Anderson is enti- tied to wear enough stripes and rib bons to make some of the junior bri- gadier generals jealous. but the A. E.. F. pin is the only insignia that adorns his uniform. and he is justly proud of it.
 In fairness te all cencerned, atten- ton is being directed to what many citizens and taxpayers consider unfair ner in which the borough is being po- liced at night. It is pointed out that, whatever ground for criticism may exist. no man that lives. by his own ton of property in the borough from raids from time to time by burglars. It never has been done and. those who are liberal admit. never will be done by solitary guardian
 Those ws1o are paying for night po lice protection will rightfuliy insist that burglaries committed during the night should at least be. discovered before morning, if back doors are left opened or windows are broken out or some other indication is left that a crime has been committed.
 It is regarded by many. however. as too Nuch to expect that one officer can V event breaks. or that they before he goes off duty. It is pointed out that a good way to demonstrate this is to have some of the critics take the job for 8 few nights and let others who do not agree with them test out their capacity to watch sew eral streets. all at the same time, while others try to put one over, harmlessly, on the patrolman. It can be done and done every night in the year, as anyone who knows the town realizes.
 If the night police service isn't what it should be. the people who pay the bills want to know it. but it has been the rule of justice in the past that every man get square deal and that he be given a hearing before he Is publicly condemned. A howl is now set up because a break occurred in a place Of business where no payment is made to have the doors tried each night. Whatever may be said as to all stores on the street. this particular hue and cry is condemned oy many as part of scheme to ride" the night officer and the justice ,f it is questioned by many people. ,ther a least half-decent1y in dealing II public matters, and the opinion lere seems to be that no exception should be made in this case.
 Peter Vineek was before Judge W. ?. Woodward in the town cofrt Fri lay morning and was fin \$2 and costs, amounting to $15.64. C-l breach ,f the peace charge. Vincek got into trouble because he tried to start something at the theater. threatening he man who was taking tickets at he door. His arrest and just pun shment followed. Vincek. Chief John pointed out Friday morn ing, is one of a considerable group of young men who make a a~practice of about the theater entrance. Some of these young men. not neces- sarily Vincek. have so deported them selves as to attract the attention of the police and the action taken in this case, the chief states. is what all of the group may expect unless they mend their ways.
 Two youths who have been ques- toned by the police as to whether they had any knowledge relative to the break at the James R. Walsh lunch rooms a few days ago have disap- peared from the borough. The police had been seen at Jewett City. which place they evidently reached on a freight train. late Thursday after noon. Since then all trace of them has been lost.
 The public vehicle service will be better organized to handle traffic to- day, the second Saturday of the strike, than was the case a week ago today. There are lines now running son and all points from which Daniel son draws trade. excepting to East kiIlingly, which seems to have been nadequateiy provided for in the gen. sral rush of getting the jitney ser vice on an organized basis. by the public service men, i put as a. general rule they are mak- ng very moderate charges. and the 1 public has little to complain about on ] his score.
