REMOVE CLARK
 AS COMMANDER

Official announcement was made yesterday by First Selectman Cheney of Milford, of the removal of Stanley H. Clark as police commissioner. The action, taken at a meeting of the board of selectmen, was not a sur prise, following first the clash be- tween Clark, who was president of the police commissioners and Judge Jar wis D. Brown of the Town court. This clash resulted from a difference of opinion regarding the enforcement of radical bathing suit ordinance at the Milford beaches. The ordinance was not enforced except in a conser- VatiVe way.
 A more recent clash between Clark and Henry w. Qualman, road inspec- tor. following which Qualman cheer fully paid a fine of s7 for hitting Clark three times, after Clark was all legged to have used dirty language toward him, didn't help matters any for Clark.
 Clark was alleged to have also used abusive language about Judge Brown, and it was bhis specific charge that brought on the hearing at which time Clark was dropped.

THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS
u Dates Back to the Time of the An.
cient Romans, and Probably Is
Much Older.

1t was custom Of the Romans to
paint rose on the ceiling of the ban
quet hall, signifying that what was
told at the feast was not to lie re-
reatcd From this custom originated
the cXpression subrosa, the Detroit
News recalls.
The rose Is the queen Of love and
beauty and IS the most eloquent of
oil In the language OF the flowers. The
rcd rose is n token OF love and the
white of purity. a moss rosebud is n
confession Of love, while q rose leaf
says, You may hope" A white rose
signifies II am worthy Of YOU" and
the yellow rose asks, "Are you jeal.
ous?"
The yellow buttercup is dedicated
to the memories Of childhood ana
riches. The Greeks and Romans used
one variety Of buttercup as a remedy
FOR leprosy. 1t was also said that the
root was sure cure for insanity II It
was gathered ut the wanc OF the moon,
wrapped In linen and carried around
the neck of the afflicted person.
