Secret of AID Writing.

The secret of good writing is sin
cerity. This applies to all depart
ments-adyertising, editorial and
news. The sincere advertisement will
always command attention. I'm
pressed with the knowledge that he
has really good thing TO offer the
public, the man who pens the ad-
yertisements puts into its working
confidence and earnestness which
makes it appealing oall. The most
interesting department of a news
paper is its advertising. 1t is a Ger
tain sign board as to the enterprise
and prosperity of town. When the
advertising runs light it means the
local dealers are not reaching out
for business. Well displayed, we'll
written and well printed advertise
ments bring people to town. They
make business better for all. They
are the upbuilders of prosperity
Thru them the smallest enterprise
may be developed into one of i'm
portance. The newspaper does its
community the greater service when
it presents TO the public a printed
advertisement of something calculat-
ed to meet the peoples need.

Long the road of human life you see
fellow trayelin' slow,
An like as not you'll find that he's
some poor chap that's stubbed
his toe.
He was maxim swimmin Roadway,

An his friends all hurried onward
an left him here alone,
He aint sobb!n' or amt snitllin'-
he's too old for tears an cries.
But he's grieyin' just as earnest if
it only comes in signs,
An it does heap of good some

Details in the up-keep of town,
Just AS details in anything, are the
things that make up the whole and
whether the whole is perfect or
hap hazard depends upon the atten-
ton that is given to the details.
what makes up town from the
material point of view The streets
sidewalks, stores and Offices. the nous
es, fences, lawns and trees, the public
buildings and parks Each one of these
things are detail of the town. If the
lawns are poorly kept. no matter how
perfect the rest of the town NAV be
that one bad detail spoils it. If papers
are allowed TO blow about the main
streets and sidewalks are not swept in
front of the stores, il looks like a moor
town for business II two or three
houses have sagging porches or untidy
door yards, II makes bad blot on
the beauty of the town.
The best OF it is it cost SO little mon
ey to keep all the details IN first class
shape \ little care on the part of ~
cry citizen every day. and We would
have a model town. Is this too much

Selling the milk habit to folks is the
way some people refer to the educa
tional milk campaigns which are be-

RELIGIONS D0
 NOT MIX WELL

That religions as a rule do not mix we'll in married life, and that there is more truth than poetry in most of the mother-in-law jokes, was brought out in the divorce action of May Passholz Jackson, Stamford, vs. Harry B. Jackson, Plainfield, N. J.
 They were married in Portchester, N. Y. $Spt. II, 1916, and subse- Quent1y lived in New York city, Jer- sey City, N. J., and finally in Plain- field, where they boarded with the husbands mother. It was then that the happiness of their married life ended, for the mother-inlaw ran all the baby Harry William Jackson, now four years old.
 A religious quarrA1 ensued as to. the faith that should be taught the child. Finally Mrs. Jackson was told to leave and she came back to her Stamford home, where she resuIl1 e q her occupation as a stenogra pher and supported herself.
 Later, she told Hon Donald TWar- ner, who heard the case, she obtain ed the child through a court order in Plainfield, also s1O a week for the support of the child, but these pay ments have long since iapsed. Her husband is a chemist, but refused to accept a good position in Stam- ford, and although his wife by mail, ed him to eStaolNh a home and live with her, he has steadfastly refused A copy of the Plainfield court order will be necessary to complete the chain of evidence on the non-support charge.

Washington, April 2s.-The war profit principle among middle men in business is causing industry to lag, putting a clog upon the peoples spending power, and causing discon- tent among laboring masses and the government, studying business read juStmentS, finds profiteering still at the root of much existent depression and inaction in business, it was as serted today by Comptroller of the Currency Crissinger.
 Labor cannot justly be expected to make wage sacrifices if profiteers among manufacturers and middlemen and distributors generally combine to keep the cost of livng high, by prices admittedly unreasonable, Comptroller Crissinger said.
 Comptroller Crissinger declared theer is a vital need for readjustment of wages, but tha labor. will be found unwilling to suffer wage cuts if mid clemens profits, which are eventually paid by the consumer, are kept at levels.
 ''Thero is ample proof that no proper relation exists today between production casts and consumers costs,'' said Crissinger. Food, cloth

Norma A. Smith, 29 South street who remarried her divorced husband February 22, 1918, which is Washing toms birthday, has an even dozen all legations of cruelty in her second di- Uorce action. All are denied by Royal W. Smith, also Stamford. Her case was heard today by State referee Hon Donald T. Warner.
 Mrs. Smith ran a rooming house She charged her husband room rent and he kicked her when his wife raised his room rent from four to five dollars when the cost of living went up. Mrs Smith admitted that he fur nished the eats, but it was not stated whether or no he charged her board At another time it was alleged he drove his machine in such a reckless manner that he made her nervous This on the heels of testimony that he had no trade and when he worked he made SIS a week
 When the rooming house was be- ing renovated he chopped a. hole from the basement to location under the bed. He also threatened to shoot her with a shotgun set fire to his clothes threw the furnace shovel at her and had a habit of either freezing out the roomers or starting such a fire that the house would nearly burn.

Death, from sleeping sick ness, last evening, claimed John Doherty, 12 years old, of 193 Mill Hill avenue, who has been ill with the dread malady since April :. This is the fourth death from this disease in Bridgeport.
 Another case has been reported this morning at the Bureau of Com municable Diseases. Sally Blake of 63 Highland avenue, has been i'll with the disease about four days, making the seventh case to appear in Bridgeport
 This disease has reached such a proportion that it is determined as being prevalent in Bridgeport as out of seven cases reported, four have proved fatal, two have recovered and one is still ill.
 Every effort is being made by Dr. William Hall Coon. chief of the Board of Health. and his staff of efficient physicians to determine how this disease is contracted, but little is known from what source the germs come. A study of the facts in each case are carefully made as to location, home surroundings and whether or not the patient has suf- fered from any other sickness. Off, ten sleeping sickness follows an at tack of influenza or some similar dis ease but this does not hold true in the majority of the cases, which com e as a SHDarate disease

 How can Ike as a nation of bus mess men, expect wage earners to agree to wage reductions. while the middleman not only passes on his losses to the consumer, but eXacts an unreasonable profit on replacements?' s?''

 the entire combinations of manu- lecturers, jobbers, wholesalers, re- tailers, 1aborers, and others, are at present operating to defeat the nor nal laws of supply and demanr, Crissinger contends.
 Comptroller Crissinger foresees' an era of great prosperity and business revival as soon as a better relation ship can be established between value and selling prices on products and commodities of all kinds.
 A consumers strike of alarming proportions is in evidence, according to the comptrol1er's report.

His bill provided that any town, city, or municipality which shall by order of its Selectmen, common council or borough officers, direct order the citi- Gens thereof to adopt any time other than eastern standard time for con- duct of public business shall forfeit all rights and claims for any and all monies they would receive from ap- propriations by the General Assem- bly, and paid by the state treasurer n order of the comptroller.

EXECUTE FOUR
 S|NN FEINERS

Dublin, April 2S-Four Sim Fein leaders who were found guilty by a British court martial of 1evying war against British Crown forces from ambush, were executed in the military barracks yard al Cork this morning. They were executed in couples, the first meeting death at s o'clock, the second fifteen minutes latter.
 Relatives and sympathiZers knelt in prayer outside the execution ground while the death sentence was being carried out.
 The four men were Patrick O'Sul- livan, Maurice Moore, Thomas Null cahey and Patrick Ronayne.
 The Municipal Corporation Coun- cil and the Cork Harbor Board adopt ed resolutions of protest against the executions and announced that cop- ies had been sent to President Hard ing at Washington and Pope Benedict XIV. at Rome. The protest was based upon the contention that the men were not ordinary criminals, but prisoners of war.

astounded to learn it was but a few minutes before twelve by the public clock
 Probably the thought of daylight saving never entered his head and perhaps he d1d not try overly hard to aee other clocks. but nevert h heiess he formed the immediate opinion that he had taken lunch an hour earlier and was in addition entitled to his usual hour He made his belated return to find his employer and the office staff up in arms, and is today gracing one of the benches at Seaside Park.

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-04-28

Bridgeport apparently is not quite willing to accept daylight saving as an established fact. Although the new system of sun saving has been in operation since Sunday. many of the public clocks upon which the rank and file of pedestrians depend are yet running on the old standards. The confusion already existing in the minds Of some, and the ignorance of the workings of the plan of others are further enhanced by the differ enceS in clock time. The tangle that is resulting has been responsible for several exceedingly humorous hap peninga. and a few Of more serious nature.
 Take for instance. the Office boy in a well known Fairfield @venue office who left at 2 o'clock sharp Tor lsss noon hour. He completed his rcpast. and sauntered about the city fer what he thought was close to an hour Arriving at the corner Of Main street and Fairfield avenue, he was
