GAME OF MANNERS.

II must tell you story about the
game of good manners which they play
In large public school in big city,"
said Daddy.
ut doesn't sound like a very pleas
ant story, for when we have story
telling time we don't want to be
preached to or scoded or anything
like that.
But thought this was such good
idea that you might, Nick and Nancy.
tell your teachers about it and also
tell the other boys and girls and then
you might see how you liked the game.
'And this isn't my own idea" Daddy
said, ''but it is the idea of the princi-.
pal of the big school I'm telling you
about and the teachers follow out the
idea with great deal of success.
I'm the first place everyone learns
the lesson in the form of n story and
no one is fooled into hearing a story
with moral without first knowing
it. They're all let into the secret
that there is to be good lesson

"And l agree" said Nick.
'Well." said Daddy, they thorough

"They are let into the secret that
it's lesson, though 1t is n play-time
lesson and they have it in connection
with their gymnasium and play-time
work, though 1t doesn't take the place
of recess.
"And they grow to understand their

them the game of manners and they

Odd Ftiiows in Norwich and vicin- ity have a special interest in the !. Q. O. F. home of Connecticut. because it is located in Groton and opportuni- ties for observing the manner in which it is managed have given them abundant carse for satisfaction over the good work Of the institution. At the next session of the grand lodge g resolution will be presented which will provide for the financing Of a plan to increase the facilities of the home. make needed repairs and provide for even better care of the aged and in digent members of the order, who are residents there.
 It is the proud claim of Connecticut Odd Fellows that no fraternal home in the country can boast of such econ omical mana cement as Fairview. or show anywhere near as great return for the money spent. At the same time the present home is not large enough to accommodate those who are seeking admission from all parts of the jurisdiction and provision must , be made to accommodate them. The. Rebekahs of the state have raised several thousand dollars for ths building Of an infirmary in connec- ton with the home and the odd Eel I lows want to complete that project | by the erection of modern brick structure in which the residents whC require constant care can be looked | after in the most satisfactory manner !

The motion for a new trial states the following claimed in- stances of improper conduct: 1. Attorney John CassidE's inter- ruption, during cross examination of
 the plaintiff. by words in the effect as follows, when witness was being questioned as to items of the drug and medicine bills which she had tes- tiied to on direct examination: ''YoU don't mean to say that you are going | to take time to ask questions as tC such trivial matters in the case ot
 such terrible injury as this?" | ?. Attorney John Cassidy's audible i conversation with Attorneys Lewis and Shields during the cross eXami- nation of witnesses Pitcher, Seyin
