IsKEPTlcIsM AND
INDIGESTION

There Is a closer connection be-
tween the gastronomic and the
spiritual processes than we arc
wont to believe.
NV friend was at the head of a
bfg business. For years he had
been regarded by his acquaintance
as a skeptic. He did not hesitate
10 Express his disapproval of the
way the universe was being run.
During this period he came near
diving from dyspepsia.
But he had regained his health
completely. We were having an
Intimate talk about his religious
views. His skepticism was a thing
agreement with Gods administra-
tion. 1 asked him what had cured
him Of his doubts. He laughingly
replied: when my stomach got
right, 1 found that my skepticism
was gone"
How much infideiity is caused by
Indigestion? More. doubtless, than
is dreamed of in our philosophy.
1t is a humiliating confession. but
one that must be made, that often
the soul fails to function because
the liver is out of order.
The secretary of a foreign mis-
sion board came near losing his
Official head because he wrote to a
pessimistic missionary: Try a blue
mass pill" He should have been
less blunt in prescribing, but no
doubt he named the medicine that
his patient needed.
There is a lot of bad theology
traceable to too much acid in the
stomach.
Man is a monad. To have the
right kind of religion he needs to
pray, but he needs also to keep
himself physically fit. The best
saint is not a lean, pale-faced ca
daverous dyspeptic. but a red
blooded, healthy, normal human
being in whom the physical and
the spiritual are well attuned.

Where are the serious minded men

devoted to their city to really do
something worth while? II is not
necessary to build a parkway or a

 NUPTIALS HELD
 IN HARTFORD

A wedding of local interest was held at St. Peters church in Hart ford on October 11th, when Miss Anna Elizabeth, daughter of Mrs. Mary Morris of Maple avenue, for meriy of this city, and William Miles McNulty, son, of MT. and Mrs. Michael McNu1ty of Bridgeport, were united in marriage by the Rev. Father Grey fish.
 The bride was aItired in a dress of white georgette cxepe with picture hat to match and carried an arm Rouo1et of white roses. Miss Anna Lawrence, cousin of the bride was her only attendant and wore a light blue georgette crepe frock, with hat 10 match and carried Ward roses.

MT. Jones and his mother left for Europe and to go back to their old home at Gwersyllt.
 During the summer the violin stu dent rested, but with the beginning of the fall season he entered the Royal Academy of London, one of the most renowned and exclusive schools of music in all Europe.
 About a month ago the great Welsh National Eisteddfod was held at Barry. The Eisteddfod is a mon strong festival of music. art and crafts. Young Jones was called by pr. Cardog. Roberts. the director of North Wales, Bangor, and the con- ductor of music at the festival, to ap- pear in the vio1inist competition. The Bridgeport pride favorably respond ed and played before an audience of 60,0O0 people. The following is the announcement which appeared in one of the largest Welsh papers the next day: 'In connection with the Fair EiSteddfod, held recently, MT. Horace Jones, a native of Gwersyllt, now on a visit from Bridgeport. America, was successful in obtaining the first prize in the open violin solo competition. In giving his award, the adjudicator re- marked that MT. Jotes was master of the situation in rendering a most diff ficult piece" In recognition of his work the government presented the yOulHlul genius d hdnuSOInG pr1Zo. in two other contests the following week the boy again showed himself as premier among his competitors.
 These events which are afforded a Bridgeporter in a foreign country cannot help but bring pride and joy to not only the young mans friends but to the people of the city in gen eral. With such numerous successes coming in so short a, time one can not help but expect much greater ones when the student is better known in Europe.

BRIDGEPORT BOY
 IS SUCCESS
 IN EUROPE
Horace Jones Wins First Prize in Violinist's
 Contest.

Bridgeport has already made it's mark as a city for manufacture and invention but 1t may not be optimistic to state that it promises to be a city of genius. Already it has singers, pianists. hymn writers and actresses who are extremely well known all over the country but now it has a promise of having an international genius. This young man is Horace Jones, who, recent cablegram states, has won recognition in pre- llminary violin contests in England and Wales. MT. Jones has often as- sisted at concerts in Bridgeport and has many friends here who are Tex tremely interested in his progress.
 Horace Jones is the son MT; and Mrs. Frank Jones of Courtland street. Black Rock. He was born in Gwer- syllt, in Wales. The family came to five years old. The first location was in Bridgeport and Horace's first tea cher was the well known instructor Professor Leslie Vaughan of this city. After seven years instruction under this teacher the boy began to make occasional visits to New York where he came into attention of the fam Belgian violin master Paul Stoeving. Professor Stoeving saw great oppor tunities in the youthful genius and solicited him as a pupil. The New York studies continued for three years and then MT. Jones went to the well known Professor fred Trus,, Mnlic Mich at the Yale e1n59fyatd0ry of Bridgeport High school last June as one of the youngest members of his class. At the completion of his high school education Professor Truswich urged that the boy go to London to study.
 Knowing that the advice of Profes- sor Truswich was extremely not worthy, two weeks after graduation,

has been deaf to good?
 Of course the girl who has blum dered can come back. Equally, of course, there areg oing to be plenty of folks to help her. Those who don't are dull and stupid Those who try to push her back are criminally in- sane on the score of their perverted morality.
 I'm not saying that the girl who has done wrong mustn't pay. Pm not saving that wrong-doers ought to get off scot-free. They don't.
 The kind of sinner who is too call lous to care to suffer shame, and de- gradation and regret is also the kind that never thinks of trying to "come back. The mere fact that man or woman wants to return ito the rules and regulations and bounds of law and order shows that he hasn't found it easy or happy going outside the law.
 The woman who struggles back to the path of responsibility is proving that the other path isn't a flowery one after all. She may have paid heavily in terms of the law, in terms , of the friends she has lost or only in her own shame and regret and hu- initiation. But rest assure she has paid. Nature has seen to that. The normal course of events in a world regulated by law and order has seen ito that. Life has seen ito that
 Inexorably the process of living ex- tracts from us the penalties for our deeds. We have to pay for what we do and for what we don't do. We sheer at bull-fights. We hold LID our hands in horror at the thought or the arena of early days But aren't we showing exactly the same desire for a spectacle of suffering get out of the pit of wrong-doine back into it again? -

ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN
By Beatrice Fairfax

Over and over again the question is put to me. *Can a girl come back 7? Sometimes it rings out desperately from a girl who has strayed and who feels that no one is willing to let her find again the path she once deserted. Now and then it SneerS it's way to having taken his fun where he wound it," distrusts the world of whose evil he knows so much and to whose evil he has contributed so much.
 Wishing with all my heart that no girl would ever stray from fine ness and sweetness and purity and her high heritage of womanhood, I feel. nevertheless, and feel strongly, that any woman who seeks again the heights has @ right to climb to them Moreover, I feel that the world owes it to her to help her find her way back.
 There's something all wrong with a civilization that wastes its woman hood. There's something all wrong with a scheme of justice that doesn't t ing and start it's citizens off with clean slates if they want to begin over new-and better.

Suppose also that he has done his time, and come out Of the penitentiary refined in life's crucible, with sense of values, a man or nlSn luedlS anu dSplTdllOnS, of tempered abilities, of real possibi1- ities and the State-is he never to be permitted to "come back?"
 There are plenty of narrow-mind ed. puritanical and cruel folk who will not give to the jailbird another chance. They have no religion large enough to take in the sinner who repenteth. They have no for giveness and no kindness in their souls.
 Such as they will not let a woman give a man a second chance to make good.
 Apart from it's utter failure to take in some of the greatest of the commandments of brotherly love and real religious feeling, such a course is wanton waste of human material.
 Suppose We never tried to set broken legs. Suppose we didn't try fo make the blind see and the deaf hear. Suppose we accepted sickness as sign and portent of devils and evil, as they did sometimes in witch craft" days. But all that's too silly to suppose, isn't it?

Fashion this season would have her a bit more conservatfye1y dress ed than last season, for instance. And above all, fashion insists upon lace, either as a trimming or as the ia bric for the gown or frock.

It is much better to oil your sewing machine a little at a time and many times rather than to deluge it now and then. After it has been oiled work it well and wipe off all the oil that works out, not forgetting to wipe the needle bar. for often grease will run down there and soil the garment.
