Albert Anderson, one of the best bowlers in Stratford, and this title cannot be disputed, is now debarred from most of the amateur games at the lccal alleys because of his great ability to hit the pins. He was not all lowed to bowl last evening with a team representing an organization which he belongs to on this account If Kelly's Corners thought Flynn Flappers could be defeated by thelr team they must have returned to Bridgeport very much disappointed, Wednesday night, after the trimming they received by the local bowlers. This is the third time this season the locals have done this trick to the Bridgeport team. The scores follow: 1 E1ynn'S FIappers.

Not Le9ion's Fault


The American Legion officers and
members are slightly disturbed as well
they may be, over a misunderstanding
of the Legion's attitude toward labor
and disorders and the accompanying
troubles and disorders. An article in
| the Legion of September 3, sets forth
| an instance of this misunderstanding
very clearly
! The latest instance is that of a wide
ly printed news dispatch telling of Lee
| gion activity in Denver, Col, during
! the riots which followed the recent
street car workers strike in that city.
The fault Of this dispatch was ambigu-
ity, the sin of it rather one of omis-
sion. 1t stated briefly that the Ameri-
can Legion of Denver had volunteered
to assist the regularly constituted
peace authorities in restoring order.
What it did not explain was that the
unteered to assist in putting down the
riots which had already cost several
lives and threatened to exact many
mOre-answered an urgent appeal
from the governor of the State and
the mayor of the city that they acted
only after the spokesman of the strik-
ers had approved their activity, and
that they took extraordinary precau-
tons to uphold the Legion's rule of
participation and strict neutrality
in labor disputes.
This is only one of several such in
stances in which members of the LIE.
giOn have been misTepresented and the
officers misquoted. The purposes and
ideals of the Legion are apparently
misunderstood whether maliciOusly
and consciously or not-and only time
and great patience on the part of the
Legion and its friends will completely
eradicate this tendency to hold the La-
giOn responsible for acts with which
it is only very hOnorably and helpful

is its purpose to be solely factor for

to the Constitution of the American

For God and Country, we associate
ourselves together for the following
purposes: To uphold and defend the
Constitution of the United States of
America; to maintain law and order:
to foster and perpetuate a one hun

 The function at the conferring or the degrees was very orderly and in- teresting, and l were especially pleased that there were no exceptions or call for a speech and no solutions from the boys. l was arrayed in scarlet robe with facings-a black velvet square cap-and when l had been summoned to the platform, be- fore crowded house, a master ofAcere- monies related on the part of the Sena- tors all the virtues had and a great many more, and at the conclusion of the speech at his request the President laid another cap on my head, kneeling and pronounced me Doctor of Laws; then another official-in light uniform put the doctors hood black silk with blue lining, over my head-and having signed the roll of honorary graduates I gave place to the next. This was very interesting, as the lady. Miss Ormerod (pronounced in two Syllab1es Creme -Rod) was thes first woman on whom the university had ever confer red this degree.

 New York, october 24.-tSpecial)- Human nature is infinitely though un- consciously resourceful, and if given time men will provide their own cor rectlye TOT every ill, physical social or economic, to which they are subject. It is, however. generally necessary that we should feel pain before we are will- ing to admit the existence of disease and practice the self restraint without which recovery is impossible.
 Until deflation pinched we gave little attention to the maladies germinated by the war. Excitement and the stimulus of imitation made us oblivious to the waste which the diskocation of indus try caused, but pain has walked us and we are coming to realize that only through hard work can the wealth de- stroyed be replaced and only through the earnest exercise or the collective intelligence of those who are willing to look through the fog of pessimism can the newly created wealth be put into profitable distribution.
 The most reassuring developments to be chronicled this week, Therefore, are the continued increase in the efficiency of labor and the constructive optimism which radiated from the banking lead CTS of the country in convention at Washington. The improvement in la bor's output must, however, be carried further. as there undoubtedly is room for it to be, if general reduction in wages is to be avoided, for basic com modities have now reached price at which their production will be impos- sible unless their labor cost is reduced either by an increase in the individual output or lowering of the wage scale. If those who work with their hands

aoly greater margin over the cost Of production than most of our farmers ever have been able to make.
 While we therefore believe the diver sion of s50,0o0,000 from normal credit channels into Cuba will be a mistake on the part of bankers and of the ad- ministration, the news of the week otherwise seems to indicate that mem Der banks of the federal reserve system have been influenced by the unrest on the farms to the extent that some of them may reduce their zeal in discrim- mating between essential and non-es- sential needs and start a movement of credit to the producers which will re- suit in a more equitable distribution between agricultural and foreign cred it's. The Dallas agent of the reserve board has given assurance that the board favors a system of gradual mar keting of cotton, though not an iron clad rule to permit holding, and as quoted by the newspapers has stated that the board will extend the time for which it will discount cotton paper. Expectation of more abundant credit seems justified and when relief is ob- served in the money market and the ex- port trade there will be little left to restrain the advance of business.
 MORE PRICE CUTTING
 Price cutting continues to spread through the country and in many staples wholesale prices appear to have reached a point where they are more likely to move up than down. The cot ton and coffee futures markets have both reacted from their long declines and in the textile trades more activity is apparent, though they are still dull and mills are curtailing. Wool. rub Der, copper, leather and lumber dealers sarcastically report their trades as fine as silk" with reference to the equal quietness of the silk market, but

Ornamental gardening, always inter- esting and worth while. is doubly so when it transforms an eyesore into a beauty spot. A certain residential dis trict in the suburbs of an Ohio city was afflicted with. an ugly clay gully, 335 feet long and at one point 267 feet wide, q disagreeable contrast to the slightly homes and lawns of the neighborhood. After tentative planting of shrubbery had shown the way, the residents at tack ed. the problem with vim. The work of a year. as shown by a page of illus trations in the Popular.
