 Following the announcement that the Veterans of Foreign Wars would hold an indignation parade on the day the Flying Squadron" was in this city. the authorities. including the Legion officials. decided to have the Flying Squadron" come at an- other time.

EMPEROR FEELS BETTER
Atmosphere of Gloom Lifted at Home of Former German Ruler When House Parties Are Enjoyed.

Doorn. Holland. Sept. 15.-The att mosphere of gloom, which prevailed over the house of the former German Emperor after the death of the former Empress Auguste. has been at least temporarily lifted by the house party held there this summer.
 The former Grown Prince Frederick and Prince Oscar with his wife and children have been spending their sum- mer holidays at the castle.
 The former emperor takes great pleasure in watching his grandson ride q tiny bicycle in the park and also arranges the daily saving parties wherein all male members of the fam fly participate, the workers refreshing themselves at intervals with wine.
 The relations between the ex-kaiser and the crown prince are evidently more cordial for they are often seen to- gether strolling in the streets of the village and the grounds of the estate.

DON'T GET HURT IS SLOGAN PICKED
Donald F. Tracy of Grand Street
 Will Receive Prize Watch

Don't Get Hurt" is the official slo- gan for New Britain's Safety First week. according to tho announcement of the committee on slogans. after a whole afternoon session in making the selection yesterday The prize win ner is announced as Donald r. Tracey. of 4t Grand street. Donald Is Is years of ago.
 IL is estimated that between 1.50O and 5000 slogans wcro turned in. Many of them were good ones and 1t was q hard job for the coU'-'ittee to make selection. Secretary Ray L.. Maxim. of tho Climber of Commerce. Dr. r. Eben Rocks. of the New Britain general hospital. J. R. Comstock. of ffce executive at r. and r Corbin's. Miss Mary Curtin. assistant to MT. Maxim and one other person. spent three hours going through the vast list of suggestions and eliminating those which were not applicable.
 Governor May Be Here.
 Ths list finally narrowed down to 2s, of which the committee voted Don't Oct Hurt" the best. Two persons sub mitted the winning slogan. one of them being 11-year-old Stella Eizenberg. of 63 Dwight street. a pupil in the East street school. The committee drew lots to select the winner and the Ira cey boys name was drawn. A gold watch. presented by George H. Dy- on. will he given to young Tracy. It Ia expected that Governor Everett J. Lake will be present to present the watch. at the close of the Safety First week.
 The committee was highly indig- nant over a report which came in that a certain school teacher in one of the upper grades, announced to her pupils that the Safety FfrsC week was simply an advertising campaign on the part of local motorists. The feeling was that Superintendent stanley IT. Holmes should be notified and requested to in- vestigate.
 Some Queer Suggestions.
 A number of real witty slogans. which were not entirely applicable to the present campaign were offered. Among some of them was found one which suggested Help Free Ireland. Another said Fools Don't Look. Watch and Pray. was suggestion sent in by one youngstcr. Life is Sweet. Dodge the Danger. Carefulness Costs Nothing. Usc Your Senses. The Hos pital Awaits, Thinking is Work. Think Before Speaking. Obey the Laws. Be Very Polite. Be Wide Awake. Safety ia Economy. Hurry Slowly. Look at Me. Safety Obtains Bliss. Guard Gods Gift. Safety Saves Souls. were among n few of the slogans submitted. Stop. Look and Listen and Watch Your Step were submitted by the hundreds.
 Honorable Mention.
 Those tho committee selected to have honorable mention are as fol- lows:

COUNTRY TOWN ESSENTIALS

The spirit of disorder never seems
to worry some folks. They can live
in house having eluttery back
yard. without the slightest feeling
OF discomfort. They excuse them
selves by saying it looks at well as
other places in the neighborhood.
Their buildings gradually acquire
a more tumble down appearance.
Fences lean over in Il decrepit and
discouraged manner ontbuildings
seem almost falling apart.
Other people are keenly sensitive
to any note of disorder They dis
like condition of disrepair about
their places as much as they would
dislike going down town without
washing their faces. People do not
care to do business in a town where
the spirit of disorder and poor re-
pair has foothold. They say the
place has not enterprise.
The only way to keep up town
is for everyone to keep close watch
over his own property and see that
1t is kept in good condition. Fail
ure to keep up buildings is the
most costly in the long run. The
man who does not have a good
tight roof over his head, may so
permit the weather to attack the
interior of his structure that he
whole framework is weakened.
Some people allow the foundation
walls of building to settle, and
the first they know the structure
has dropped out of shape. A new
post in that dropping fence in your
backward may prevent the whole
thing from falling over.
A town or piece of property that
is kept in perfect repair has an air
OF finish and trimness that counts
more than costly architecture.
Better modestly built community
kept in perfect condition, than one
with expensive structures in which
the people maintain poorly kept
property If there are any build
ings of this description in Holly
the people would benefit themsel-
YES and their community by either
removing or improving them

pArRoL11NG THE ROADS.

States that have their highways
regularly patrolled to take care
of defects before they become SER
ious. find their road work costs
less. In Wisconsin a patrol sys.
ten takes care of $500 miles of roads
one patrolman taking care OF an
eight mile section.
Wisconsin. as, a result of this sys-
tenn, claimed to have better high
ways than Illinois, where more is
being spent on the roads. It takes
but short time to fill up the little
hole when it starts, but il you let
the automobiles and trucks grind
it down for a few weeks. it is SER
ious job to repair it, One hole
tends to make another. A car that
is dipping up and down through
holes is wearing what is left OF the
road faster Hthan one that slips
along on smooth surface.

COMMUNITY SLOGANS.

A letter from Arizona few days
ago. was sent in an envelope that
was handsomely printed with slo-
gans of that state. Among these
were the following: Cattle. Cot
ton, Copper and Climate also
THE Wonder State of the South,
west
Many cities adopt the same idea
and have slogans characteristic of
their community. Business men
and others have the same printed
on their stationery. Some towns
have pictures taken of their civic
center or some notable scenic fea-
ture for use on letterheads.
All these forms OF advertising are
useful. II they are genuine. One
city adopted as Its slogan, ''The
Paradise of America" Az there are
1000 other towns that could equally
make as good claim, this seemed
too braggy. A really descriptive slo-
gan or symbol to represent Holly
to be used on stationery sent out
from here would be a good publi-
city method and should bring re-
suits.
Not many people celebrate Wash,
ington's birthday by reading hts
Farewell Address. hut lot of them
will cut out red paper hatchets.
The time seems to have gone by
when you could amass a fortune by
selling silk shirts to worknil.n. en-.
People who are working so persls.
tently with their mouths, need to
be reminded that Lent Is period
for quiet and rest.

cHrLDRrM's socIxr1xs

In the old days children were sup.
posed to be seen and not heard
American life with its easy ways
and too great freedom from res
traint soon set them loose from
this period of repression Then
came a time when the buoyant and
bubbling activity OF the kid ele-
inent organized campaigns Of mis-
chief.
Social workers for many years
studied plans to take this enthus
ialn of youth and direct 1t into
useful channels The Knights of
King Arthur was q typical society
that influenced many boys, by sug-
gesting noble characters OF old as
subjects for emulation Scores of
similar organizations have attempt
ed the same and with varying de
grees of success.
Th Boy Scouts seem to have been
more successful than any other soc
iety OF its type In appealing to
boy spirit. Girl Scouts and similar
organizations have transformed the
lives of many young girls. These
movements won out by emphasiz-
ing real things. instead of merely
stirring up play spirit
Boys and girls like to feel that
they are doing things the older
people do. When the boys study
the drill of the soldier. and the girls
cook over the camp fire they feel
older than they really are and be-
come ready to take up the respon-
sibilities of life
Boys and girls who hang around
the streets in an ailnless way will
grow up into men and women who
do not feel responsible for eommun
ity movements Those who at an
early age attach themselves to some
organization with useful aims have
formed the habit of cooperation
that is the basis of all cmmunity
progress. People here in Holly who
: want to push their home town
ahead. should help on these boy
and girl organizations, which are
training forces that later win ac-
complish wonders for community
progress.
The Holly chieftain., 1921-02-17

Much has been written about the
deplorable condition of the Man
with the Hoe, BIT when last seen he
was driving in town at the rate
of 25 miles an hour to attend the
movies.
When business is quiet some
folks sit around bewsiling the bad
conditions, while others take the
time to build up plans by which
their trade expands on the next
boom.
Many Of the people who howl the
loudest about taxes are the same
ones who elect public officials who
never had any record Of business
capacity.
