BILL PROVIDING
 FOR PRESIDENTIAL
 PRIMARY GOES IN
People Will Elect Own President Hereafter Is Measure
 Is Passed.

Washington, Feb. 25.-In the face of the declared opposition of the Old Guard Republican and Bourbon Democratic organizations throughout the country, Congressman Schall of Minnesota has introduced presidential primary cleo tions bill which if enacted into law would give the people for the first time chance to select their own President.
 The fat boys i'll politics don't want 1t, of course,' said Schall to the Fed erated Press, discussing his measure. "They know that the voters have never had anything to say about who should be Chief Executive of this Republic. They know that if the voters could have spoken, Johnson would have been the republican rcminee last year, and Cox would never have secured the demo- cratic 3mlnatlOn."
 In order to make his plan effective Schall offers a constitutional amend ment which declares that ''the electors of the President and Vice-President shall be the people of the states of the United States, and shall have the quail fications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislatures; and the person receiving the greatest number of votes for Presi- dent shall be the President, and the per votes for Vice-President shall be the Vice-Presidcnt"
 The bill provides that the republican and democratic parties, and any other party filing a petition of 500 or more electors names in each of a majority of the congressional districts of State, shall be recognized as existing political parties in that state; that the elected committees of the established parties shall constitute their respective national conventions, which shall be limited to the making of platforms and to recom- mendations of candidates to their own DartleS

DRY FORCES WIN
 BOUT IN HOUSE

Washington, Feb 25.-Friends of pro- hibition enforcement in the House have won another battle to keep liquor be- yond the reach of those not permitted to handle or drink it.
 After fare-up that threw the House into bitter debate toward the close of a peaceful holiday session, the prohibition forces rallied followers and put through a motion directing cOnferees on the deficiency bill to give the government Sl 100000 to break up the liquor tratflc from now until July l. It was the top figure discussed.
 Before the vote was taken, however. charges flew thick, Chairman Good of the Appropriations committee, declaring enforcement agents openly are winklng at the laws violation,

GOVERNOR FINDS
 FARMING BOOKS
 DUSTY AT STORRS

When the appropriations committee was inspecting the Connecticut Agri- cultural College last Friday, according to an incident related this week at the Capitol, Governor Lake, who accom- panied the committee, walked unroticed in the library of the institution and ex- amined the books. He took careful note that books relating to various academic subjects were well worn while those treating wholly with agritulture great numbers of them carried the dust of many days.
 It is presumed the governor made this examination in an effort to satisfy himself, as to the inference in the re- port of the state board of finance that more attention was being given to academic subjects at the college than to the study of agriculture.

It Is also stated that to enhance his chances he promised Governor Lake the senatorial nomination and the governor Is said to have listened eagerly and to have swallowed the idea that Tilson could really land it for him whether Mclean runs or not.
 Precedents for his appointing a law yer from the ranks to the high courts were shown him, notably that of Simeon E. Baldwin who was appointed in face of a big storm even from democrats, by Governor Morris. Then Justice John K. Beach of the Supreme Court was also put on the bench without hay ing had lower court experience, making at least two incidents for the governor to fall back on. But there is a vast difference, in the opinion of local law yers. Tilson Is neither Baldwin nor Beach. both of whom are recognized as among the most learned and brilliant of the American bar.
 Aside from Tilson's ambitions some politicians see in the move the fine hand of Col. I. M. Ullman to head off any thing the Blakeslee-W crowd might be up to-. Whatever the game it Is very probable now that neither Tison nor any other New Haven county man will get the coveted places Litchheld county now has not representative in the high courts and is clamoring for one. The way Lake may get out of the squabble therefore may be that he will appoint one of the present superior court judges to the supreme court and then fill his palce with Litchfeld county man, leaving Tilson and his ambitions hiOh and dry

How many of you adults who read
this test could pass it? How many
accidents do you suppose could have

as the boy scouts do,

SCOUTS AS TRAFFIC AIDS,

In Fort Smith, Ark, scouts were
recently put on the job of recording
their observations as to how well
drivers of automobiles were obeying
traffic laws and reported that one
third of the motorists observed did
not slow down for railway crossings
and were otherwise criminally negli-
gent. As result of this report a more
stringent watch was set on traffic
and safer conditions enforced.
Another traffic job which won much
praise locally was the aid rendered
by boy scouts to the police depart
ment of Detroit in handling holiday
crowds on two of the city's busiest
corners. Squads carried long ropes
preventing pedestrians from crossing
streets during vehicular traffic; when
the traffic direction changed a squad
leader signaled and the boys hurried
to block the other intersections. The
police say this work was never so
well managed before and greatly min
imized the number of accidents and
the prevalence of jay walking.

ANYWAY, COIN WASN'T THERE
And When You Think of 1t, Johns
Suggestion May Have Been
Pretty Nearly Correct.

He was a good-natured but rather
simple-minded father, and he said to
his son:
John, I've been informed that If
any one buried a haH-dollar in the
garden at night, and let the moon shine
on it, the next morning it would be a
tive-dollar gold piece"
"Well, dad" answered the son, 81
should try it; you never know your
luck"
The father agreed. When morning
arrived he hurried into the garden.
The coin had disappeared. He rushed
back into the house and exclaimed to
John:
"It's gone, John. How do you ac-
count for that?"
John answered modestly:
"All i can suggest, dad, is that you
got up too late and the sun (son) got
at it."-HOustOn Post.

WHEN THE CENTURY BEGAN
Mode of Reckoning Is Simple, Yet the
Matter Is Frequently Subject
of Dispute.

The Twentieth century began on the
first day of January, 1901. In COM
mon usage the First century means
the years A. D. l to 100; the Second
century the years 1O1 to 200; and the
Nineteenth century the years A. ID.
1901 to 1900. The Fifth century be-
fore Christ was 500 to 401 b. G. a
century begins with the beginning of
the first day in it's first year, and does
not end until the close of the last day
in its hundredth year. The mode Of
reckoning is often confused with the
common mode of stating the age of IL
person. A person born at the begin
ming of the Christian era would be
called one year old during his second
year, that is during the course of the
year two; he would be called two
during the year three; and forty dur
ing the year fOrty-one, etc.
