Outing Today.
The Boys Club band motored to
Beach Park, Clinton, this morning
where the members are enjoying
their annual outing. At noon a con-
cert was given In front Of the Dew
Drop Inn, where dinner was served
This afternoon is given over to
athletic stunts, music and aquatic
sports. Prizes will be awarded the
winners of various events.
Paint Nursery.
Eight members of the Older Boys
association connected with this club
have won the gratitude of the officials
of the New Britain Day nursery, on
Winter street, by spending four days
this week renovating and repainting
the nursery and installing new pick
ct fence about the property. The boys
who did the worker were Fred Bram-
hall, Rayrard Anderson, Joseph XII
minecky, Howard Belsor, Edward
Farley, Gus McDonough, Joseph ST.
kolowski and Charles Levine. Tho
boys painted the walls and ceiling and
cupboards in the nursery and now are
busy repainting the interior Of the
club under the instruction of an ex-
pert painter. Mr.. Barber, of the
Stanley Works, carpenter, assisted
in the construction Of the fence at
thu nursery.
Playground Boys to Battle.
Superintendent Cook yesterday aft
ernoon extended to Jack" Rourke.
general supervisor of Fairgrounds, an
invitation to send all boys from the
old Elihu Burritt school playground
over to the club at the end of the
days pleasure, for shower baths. This
offer is good for any day this, month.
Next month it is planned to close up
the club to overhaul equipment and
this may interfere with he shower
baths.
The offer has been accepted by Mr.
Rourke, who said he was looking for
such a place in this neighborhood. A
similar place for girls would not go
amiss. The offer to boys is limited
to those of Boys club ages, from 10
to 16, although it is not confined to
members.

Play next year will doubtless be the
same as those in the cast when the
play was last produced in 1910. An
ton Lang, who enacted the role of
Jesus Christ in 1900 and 1910, will
probably be chosen for the part again,
as he is still young enough to under
take the arduous task and looks the
part so we'll that younger aspirants
are not likely to displace him.
Ottilie Twink, who played the role
that time No married woman can
play a role. Consequently all the
young women of Oberammergau with
ability and experience as actors are
eagerly trying to qualify for the high
ly important part. Paula RendL
daughter of Peter Rendl, the sculptor,
who was Joseph of Arimathea in the
play of 1910 and enacted the role OF
ST John 81 years ago, is one of the
most promising candidates for the
role Of Mary. Fraulein Rendl has
shown great ability in minor rehglous
plays which are produced constantly
by the Oberammergau folk as
means of training actors for the Pas-
sion Play.
Marie Mayr, who played the role OF
Mary Magdalene in the 1910 produce
ton. has also married and is living In
Chicago. Marie Schmid who was
the aVeronica in thu last productlon'
has also married.
Eighty-two Of the Oberammergau
men died during the war and many
of the older actors of the last pro-
duction will be disqualified by age for
important roles. Consequently there
are scores of places in the cast to
which young men with ability as ac-
tors may aspire. They have begun
to let their hair grow. Wigs and
makeup are not permitted by the
directors of the Passion Play.
Practically all the older men who
had important parts in the last pro-
duction have never cut their hair
Many of them have retained their
long boards and pride themselves on
their resemblance to the biblical
characters they have depicted.

the boys goes on to explain how
they were invited to render a con-
cert at Newington where the grange
was said to be celebrating the hi
centennial Of the town. Thirty mem
bers the band assembled at the
club to await transportation. After
brief wait two cars came along.
AS many of the. boys and their in
struments as could be damned into
two cars were taken away. About
an hour later two more cars came
along and in some unaccountable
manner the rest Of the band was piled
into and on top of the last two cars.
Finally all were landed in Newington.
Ice Cream At 10 Cents Per.
When it came time to give the con-
cert there was no light so nearby
automobiles we're pressed into service
and headlights were trained on the
music When the band started play
ing the crowd showed in front of the
autos and shot off the light. How
ever, the boys played the best they
could from memory. Seven or eight
selections were rendered. Then a
speaker from Newington delivered a

AN EFFECTIVE WARNING

The Socialists, asking for the pardon of Eugene "
Debs have adopted resolution declaring that 1--WE re-
believe that President Wilson, who has pardoned
murderers bank robbers burglars German spies, dope
Dealers bank wreckers and other choice criminals speaks
for the people when he continues to keep in
prison political opponent"
Now, we hold no brief for Mr.. Wilson. We have no
intention of defending his policies in pardoning the types
criminals the Socialists have enumerated In fact
have of the opinion that the President has been
entirely free not only in the exercise of his par
donng power but too free in the of his influence with
executives in the exercise of their pardonng
We inclined to place great reliance upon the verdict
jury of American citizens who have heard the tes
mony arrived conclusion after due deberation
When twelve men agree unanimously verdict, the
chances that the verdict is right although of
there have been rare instances of error.
And it is confidence in the judgment of jury that
take exception to the demand Of the Socialists
for the release of Mr. Debs. He convicted not be-
he political opponent of Mr. Wilson, but be-
cause the criminal laws of the United
States. His punishment is warning to others.
