condition of individuals and in some ize them as "Jazzical." Statements are made today that are ridicul- ous, viewed in the sane reasoning of the past, that one may see the thought fluid blazing a zig-zag way through the air. There is nothing to account for it except the popularity of the Jazz" in thought and in ac- tion.
 Il have recently been shown great quantities of materials of most un- said Sir Charles Allen. These he at tributes to Jazz Jazz furniture, jazz wall paper. jazz hangings and other house furnishings-all used by people whose minds are jazzed.
 Were the disease limited to one class, and were one class of people to be blamed for its popuie rity the cure might be effected. If it referred to music law might be passed and enforced compelling musicians to render only the harmonies of mas ters of music-inspirIng, stirring or soothing. But as the Jazz has af- fected all classes, all leaders in all classes must cooperate to drive the jazz from us before it gains such power over us that eccentricity will turn into insanity and Jazz will rule supreme.

ELECTRICAL WORKER
 INSTANTLY KILLED
Robert Burns of Vine Street
 Meets Tragic Death

Robert Burns, aged 25 years. son of Mrs. Catherine Burns of 63 Vine street, was killed instantly late yester- day afternoon by electrocution, at the power station of the Connecticut Light and Power company on Corbin avenue. The unfortunate young man, with other workmen, was working on a steel upright when in some manner his body came in contact with a wire carrying 13,000 volts of electricity. The shock threw the body to the ground. a distance of ten feet. His companions were surprised at the accident, as it was believed that the wire that MT. Burns was working on was not charged.
 Among those who were at work at the time was Cornelius Lynch, Who had a close call from a similar fate about a year ago on Elm street. As soon as the companions of MT. Burns saw his body fall to the floor they rushed to his side, but life was ex- tlnct. Word was sent to the police station, and Policemen Lyon and Rival, Alexander Beatty, mechanic at the municipal garage, and Deputy Fire Chief Eugene F. Barnes, hasten ed to the scene with the puImotor Dr. Henry T. Bray and Dr. John Pur- ney also responded, but there was nothing that could be done. Medical Examiner Dr. Waterman Lyon said death was instantaneous. The body was removed by J. M. Curtin and company, undertakers.
 The sudden death of MT. Burns is the second death in the family in little over a year. The deceased was a brother of the late William F. Burns. regarded as one of the great est all-around athletes that attended the New Britain High school. He was the son of the late Timothy Burns, for many years one of the leading plumb CTS in this city, and a former mem Der of the health board. Young Burns was plumber by trade, and up to the time the business depression af- fected that craft, he worked for his brother, Edward P. Burns
 He leaves his mother, two brothers. Edward P. and John Burns, and six sisters, Mrs. Howard Rawlings, Misses Grace, Mary, Margaret, Bernadette and Catherine Burns

Baseball is ingrained in us-in- grained at least in the men who have lived in the rural districts, or who have grown up with a vacant lot nearby. And it is good that it is so. No matter whether the players are the highest type of men or not-and be it said for them that they are a fine group of men, as n rule-the game will be loved for itself always The players. in many cases. are idol izcd. Many are scored toward the end of each season. but this is the re- suit usually of poor or indifferent playing rather than lack of moral principle.
 And the game will be clean be- cause American men arc clean. Dis honesty may creep in. as it has crept in apparently. but keenIy fought con- tests will be seen, and the dishonesty will be negligible anl promptly stamped out If any is discovered. Good old baseball!

WED WISELY

"EsD
 Every man should be exceedingly careful in the selection of his wife, says John D. Rockefeller, Jr. So many men are foolish
 As they wend their worldly way, And display a lack of knowledge
 Ev'ry night and ev'ry day: But the greatest source of danger That besets a man in life Is the simple little process
 Of selecting him wife. There is a homely saying,
 Though it seems so seldom read Which states that fools will rush in Where the angels fear to tread. And this is true. we know now,
 Since we've seen so much of strife And have watched the theory proven By a husband and a wife. Now comes young Rockefeller
 With a bit of fine advice Which, just like all other warnings Will be packed away in ice: But he sounds a note of wisdom
 Clear as music from a fife When he says, Young man, be careful |. While you're looking for a wife, He continues, then, in substance: Marriage makes so many fall That if you don't wed wisely
 Then, you shouldn't wed at all;" This would surely solve the problem sl.af lao,

You may think of nothing but strange music or weird dancing when the word Jazz is mentioned. It means a lot more than that. however. It is in reality a disease and it af- fccts all classes of people.

Riga, Letvia, April 15.-(By the As sociated Press)-Russia must main tain her military strength, in spite of the fact that fighting has ceased on all fronts, as the period of transi- uon rom war to peace is one filled with danger, says resolution adopted at conference of army commissaries and commanders at Moscow.

MUNICIPAL LABOR BUREAU.

There is more in the idea of a Municipal Labor Bureau than at first appears.
 The employers of labor may make it success or failure. As rule. where similar bureaus have been established in other cities, they have failed eff they have failed) because of the lack of cooperation between 1t and the employers. And the bureau has not been to blame.
 Bureaus similar to the one proposed have adopted all sorts of means to persuade employers to keep their wants known. Apparently their wants have been filled so rapidly that they have neglected to do so. or they have let the matter rest. without giving work to anyone merely because no one applied. Perhaps the work of the employer was not pressing and therefore he allowed it to wait.
 The failure of these. bureaus has not been because of people who wanted work. They have always been ready and within call
 When the bureau opens let the em- ployers of New Britain show the de- sire to make 1t successful. not only for the present, but for the future also. And when employers are re- ferred to one means individuals as we'll as corporations.
 i. z.l.~. ~.I.iz.. sl,s, city who do not need some sort of work done. They may consider it scarcely worth while to communicate with the bureau; the work may re- complished.
 But a days work means much in many instances. If employers. inciud- ing corporations. would get in the habit of calling up the bureau the first thing in the morning when there was some extra work to be done the bureau would be a success from the start.
 And a days work should not be scorned by one seeking something to do. It would make the waiting for permanent job so much the easier. and, through association with the employer who wants a little work done. the jermanent Job may be ob- tained.
 Of course the Red Cross, which never fails to aid when it's help is needed, is entering into the plan. It is just another example of the value of that great organization of the great heart.
 Incidentally the census of the un- employment here will prove of great value. The facts ascertained concern ing those who are out of work con stitute data that informs the whole country.
 The situation in New Britain, although by no means as critical as in other cities, is characteristic of that elsewhere. The information concern ing the unemployed here should be of value to Jother cities of similar char acter. There is in it the possibility of discovering remedies for unemploy- ment or at least an amelioration of such a situation. The data that is obtained should he preserved for our own use or for the use of other muni- cipalities which have not been pro- gressive enough to gain it for them selves.
 Far away as it may seem, there are signs, in this census and employ ment agency plan, of a better un- dersta nding of the labor situation by employers. They are the ones who should be especially interested if they have not lost all desire to grasp social problems-and 1t is believed that New Britain employers have not lost their ideals in this regard.
