The ice was so thick about my
nome on Sunday morning that I felt
like an Arctic explorer.
Both Dot and her mother blamed
me for my father-in laws mishap.
Finally. when Tot, for the twentieth
time. began TO tell me about poor
father" 1 broke in by saying:
Look here, dear. believe you
would blame me for the weather.
Your father made a chump of him
self last night. but 1 can't see that
IL is in any way my fault"
The idea Of bringing him home
in that disgraceful condition.
Should I have let him go 10 sleep
under some lamp post? Now let me
tell you my side Of it. YOU insisted
upon me playing cards last night.
YOU insisted upon me taking your
father along.
HE insisted on drinking too
much while the rest Of US we're be
having ourselves like gentlemen,
and. incidentally. HE drank up all
my friends rye
HE insisted on betting like a
crazy man, and. even so. he didn't
lose any more than he won the
last time he played with my friends.
No-wait a minute, for I haven't fin
ished
Now I'll tell you what I'll do. If
IL will make you and your mother
feel any better. I'll give back to your
father the 81 1 won from him last
night If it will make him feel any
better. I'll give him all he lost.
Just keep this in mind: I didn't
have anything 10 do with him play
ing cards nor drinking. He needed
no urging TO do either"
Dot didn't say anything 10 sug-
gest that she recognized the justice

Mr.. Stoddard i'm the house had
taken from the table his resolution
which would have required tho conf
mittce on appropriations to report
bills or Joint resolutions, other than
those relating to deficiencies, and
maintenance of departments. boards,
com missions. etc, before 1t should
consider or report appropriation bills
for new projects or undertakings. Mr..
Stoddard had the resolution amended
TO provide that all such reports
should be made before April 1. Tho
purpose of this resolution, Mr.. Stod-
dard said, was to give opportunity for
careful consideration OF all appropria-
tions and not have them come in the
closing days OF the session. He cited
an instance where in one session tn"
appropriation bills came in in the last
i've days when there was not time
enough TO consider them before
adjournment
My. Buckley opposed tho adoption
OF the resolution. saying that he be-
lieved the committee was capable
OF handling tho bills and knew best
when they were ready 10 be sub
mitted. The committee. he said. had
a tremendous task ahead OF II and IT
should be left free to make its re-
ports its own way. Mr.. Buckley be-
lieved that any member was able to
ascertain the wants of departments or
the special needs as represented by
bill and by inquiry could obtain all
in formation desired so that that
particular matter could be debated
when the committee sends in its
appropriation recomm endation. He
referred TO the committee. The house
took this view Of g. after and sent
II there, and the committee will work

TOBACCO GROWERS
WON'T SELL STOCK
Connecticut Dealers Obdllrate and As
Result Work i'm Warehouses Is
Falling on

Hartford, Feb. 3.-Refusal on the
part OF growers who have not yet sold
their tobacco to take the price offered
them by warehouse men is leading to
curtailment of work at tobacco ware
houses with the prospect that in view
Of the weakened tobacco market these
warehouses will not resume full opera
tons again this season, which will end
by April I. Opinions vary as to the
amount of unsold tobacco still on the
hands of the grower, estimates placing
the amount at 20 to 40 per cent. of the
years crop.
William *. Ackley, secretary of the
New England Tobacco Growers asso-
citation said today that he estimated
that 60 per cent. of the Havana and
25 per cent. OF the broadleaf were I'M
sold. The farmers were unwilling. he
said, to accept the price the buyers
were Offering. which was much below
what was offered late last summer
when most contracts were made, and In
many cases below what it actually cost
the grower to raise his tobacco. Grow
ers of unsold tobacco have no inten-
ton, he said, of letting their crops go
at the sacrifice price offered them Mt
present and expect that If they with
hold their tobacco that will of itself
strengthen the tone Of the market.
