DINE AT THE DE VARGAS

There are some people who hes
itate TO go to a big hotel for their
meals because they believe that it is
impossible TO get a square meal
at such a place without having to
pay two or three dollars for it. This
belief however. is unfounded, at least
in the case of the De Vargas Hotel,
according to w. ]. Lackie, manager
OF the dining room at that famous

MUSIC ESSENTIAL TO
HUMAN HAPPINESS

From time immomorial music has
played a most important part in the
HE and affairs OF mankind. From
the earliest Of recorded history, and
even %antedating authentic record,
through the legends passed down
from father to son by word of mouth,
we learn Of the great importance
that has been placed upon music. OF
course in the very early days, a. in
the case of the more aboriginal races
OF the present time. music, like every
other factor entering into human ~
i%stence, was known only in It's crud-
est forms, but mankind has always
sought through the medium OF music
to express his highest thoughts and
inspirations.
Leaders Of men have always re
allied the value of music and have
utilized its power to inspire in their
followers greater patriotism and great
er courage. and the pages OF history

THE SCHOOL OF AMERICAN
RESEARCH
By Lansing b. Bloom

This institution, first organized il
1908 as the School OF American
Archaeology and incorporated in 1917
under 1t, present title, was created
by the Archaeological Institute OF
America Tor the purpose OF conduct
ing IN America work similar to that
which the Institute carries on in
other parts of the world through
similar American Schools and Foun-
dationS, as in Rome, Athens, Jeru-
salem, Me,opotamia, and France,
The School of American Research
has lis seat in Santa Fe, New Mex
leo, and operates primarily through
the Museum OF New Mexico, which
is one OF the States educational ms
titutionS, created by legislative act
and maintained by Legislative aopro-
priation. The baildngS ocegI 1 by

record innumcrable instances OF small
armies that have gone into battle ms
pred by the martial strains Of their
national airs, and have returned vic
toriouS over enemies far superior in
numbers,
But the power of music has not
by any means been confined to the
martial side of the worlds history
II has played a no less important part
in the moulding OF home life, and ii
is upon this latter phase that we
wish to lay the greater cmphaSi, at
this time.
1t is a fact that a very large per
centage of the human family derives,
AZ least at times, keen enjoyment
from music, but it is equally true that
only a comparatively small percent
age Of people have sufficient musical
talent to be able to play upon any
instrument or to sing with any de-
gree of perfection. The result has
been that until recent years, the OPP
%portunitieS for these people to enjoy
good music have been limited to such
times as they were able to attend
some form or other OF musical en-
tertainment or recital, and, especially
among people living in country dis
%trictS, these opportunities to listen to
good music have been rare.
Today however, as a result Of the
development of that most wonderful

even a family living miles from the
smallest railroad junction, on the open
prairie or in the heart OF the noun
may enjoy at will the finest eff

A QUESTION OF WORDS.

They have been discussing the ad- visibility of cutting salaries over in Hartford, too. Incidentally-and merely incidentally for New Britain feels no urge to follow the example of Hartford or any other city-they de- cided not to do it but rather to con tinue the higher salaries which have been paid by the city for the past two years.
 The argument of the lone Alderman favoring the suggested cut and op- posed to continuing the higher sal aries is interesting if reported correct ly Alderman Jones said" reads the report, "he did not think there was a city position which could not be filled for s4,OO0 a year"
 Quite aside from the question whether or not s4,OoO a year is too much to pay for any position in the city of Hartford, the report was prob ably correct, and Alderman Jones was quite correct when he asserted that "he did not think" As to the fill ing" of any position for S4,000 a year 1t is matter of the meaning of the word used. It reminds of the anec- dote of the substitute political speak CT who, having been presented to his audience rose and remarked: Gent lemen'-for it was before the days of and ladies' in political gatherings Gentlemen, your chairman has in- troduced me to you as one who has come here to fill the place of the Hon. I. R. A. Talker, who was unable to keep the engagement. I shall under take not to 'fill' his place, but l shall do my best to 'wabble around in it a little"
 Any city position may be "flled" at a very low figure where the posi- ton is viewed in it's physical and ma terial aspects only. Men contented with that sort of filling" should urge salary cuts. Those who see the possi- bilites of city positions in another light; those who want the best men and women and the most efficient in city positions will oppose cuts at this time.

 The teeth" of Che proposed rules, repeated for what they are worth, may be found in the declaration. "any person in the service of any of the powers adopting these rules who shall violate my of the rules thus adopted, whether or not such person is under orders of Governmental superior. shall be deemed to have violated the laws of war and shall be liable to trial and punishment as if for an act of piracy, and may be brought 10 trial before the civil or military authorities of any such powers within the iuris- dictIon of which he may he found"
 In this last clause of these rules as reported is seen chance to avoid war or q chance to declare war. A nation angered by a violation of the laws of humanity keenly anxious to be avenged for the wrong done it through the destruction of one of its ships, the passengers and crew, but unwilling to go to war because of this violation of the generally recognized submarine rules, might consider itself avenged by holding guilty the per son" in command of the destroying submarine. The nation might expect that commander to be tried and pun ished by the civil or military author ities of any such power, (the sigma tory powers. Ed.) within the jurisdic- ton of which he may be found."
 On the other hand a nation eager to declare war upon another and be- coming the aggrieved country because of the act forbidden by these rules, might easily find the commander of the offending vessel to have been act ing under orders of his government and, such being the case, might hold that government guilty of an act of war through one of it's servants.
 The Root rules are scarcely of a nature strong enough to quiet Grea Britains rumored dread that demand for increased submarine tonnage sug- gest the possibility of future raids on commerce. The rules tend in the right tendency" must come before the mat. ter may be considered settled satis- factorily.

THE RIAITO DECISION.

The finding of Coroner Mix, hold ing the New Haven building inspector and two theater men criminally re Sponsible for the deaths resulting from the Rialto disaster, will bring about one immediate result. Build ing inspectors and owners or lessees of theaters and managers thereof will take all the precautions possible, if they have not done so already, to make their places of entertainment safe for those who patronize them. Police, detailed to such places of amusement will enforce the standing room and other rules under strict or ders from their chiefs. If anything were needed to restore a feeling of comparative safety to theater patrons, this decision will go q long way to- ward furnishing it.
 It is impossible, nor would it be seemly, to pass upon the merits of the decision. The courts will do that when the men face manslaughter charges, as they will in all human probability. But it may be said that any decision which brings home to men the value of a human life and their responsibility in regard there to cannot fail to bring results bene- fcial from every point of view.

"MONIES" AS ENIDENCE.

Photographs have long played their parts in suits at law. Enlarged re- productions of wills, alleged to have been forged have been introduced in evidence, showing defects in the forged writing.
 Now come the moving pictures as evidence. A woman sued a man in the court at White Plains, N. Y. for s50,000 damages, alleged to have been sustained by her through an automo- bile accident for which he was re sponsble. The defense desired to prove that the plaintiff was not lame as a result of the accident. A pri- vate detective was hired by the de- fense. A camcraman, with his instru- ment was stationed near a certain long stairway. Women detectives made the plaintiffs acquaintance and led her to the steps. The cameraman testines he photographed every step the complainant took and the defense claimed that the pictures showed no lameness The pictures were viewed by court and jury in the dark cellar of the courthouse and are said to have been distinct,

REICEIER MUST
 PAY UP FINES
Either That Course or Jail, Is
 Judge Klett'S Order

When Morris Reicher took the wit ness stand in police court this morn ing to defend himself on charges of assaulting Hyman Schlaefer, Judge George w. Klett found a memor- andum on his desk indicating that the accused has paid but $15 on fines of $34 imposed on a gambling charge. He found the accused guilty, fined him $5 and costs and ordered him to pay the $19 due or go to jail.
 Reicher was placed on probation last November after he was found guilty of running a gambling house. After making an initial payment of $15 he failed to appear again. The accused was also in the recent term of the superior court He had been fined in this city on a reckless drlV- ing charge, the vehicle he was operat- ing having been owned, it was alleged by Mrs. Variola, wife of Salvatore Nariola, the rum runner now in the county jail. He skipped his bond and when he failed to appear the bond was called. After a plea by Lawyer Irving I. Rachlin the case was re opened at the last term and Reicher was. remandcd to jail, then released.
 Reicher and Schlaefer, who was also fined S5, engaged in a quarrel at the corner of Willow and Oak streets yesterday afternoon. The argument attracted a crowd. SchIaefer is al leged to have removed his coat and struck Reicher who retaliated by landing several blows, according to the testimony of Policeman Dennis Nealon. The trouble was based on alleged statements by Reicher con- corning Schlaefer's wife.
 George F'roba, arrested for the third time on liquor charges. pleaded not guilty. The specific complaints brought by Prosecutor Joseph C. Woods are that the accused conducts @ place at 142-146 Arch street, which has a liquor reputation, and that he kept liquor on hand with intent tc sell.

LONDON PAPERS ARE
 MUCH DISAPPOINTED
Liberal Press Condemns French Ac- tion-Others Hint at Isolation
 for That Country

London, Dec. 29, (By Associated Press) News of Frances action be- lore the Washington arms conference l in refusing to accept an allotment of submarines of less than 9O,O0O tons was printed in the London newspapers today under captions indicating dis appointment.
 The Times while avoiding any re- elimination against France deplores her decision which it thinks may nave a regrettabe effect upon the at titude of the people toward many i'm
 portant problems,' and claims that Great Britain will be obliged, how ever, reluctantly to build both subma- rines and light cruisers to an amount commensurate with the French fig ure.
 The newspapers sees in the tone of the speeches in the French senate yesterday an indication that if the French government had abated it's full claim advanced at Washington it would have been liable to an mime diate overthrow. The Times also re- flutes the idea reported to have been suggested in Washington that France hopes to use the submarine question at the Cannes conference as the basis for bargaining
 Frances attitude is strongly con demned by liberal newspapers which regard her as having adopted i'm perialistic aims such as she attributed to Germany. The Westminster Ga zette says that if France deliberately chooses to pursue her own course re- gardless of her neighbors she cannot complain if she finds herself isolated both morally and materially, President Harding is not likely to accept this rebuff and admit himself
 beaten by one European dissentient," adds the Gazette and, referring to the report that Mir. Harding may seek another conference. In this he will
 have the cordial support of Great
 Britain and we believe ultimately of the great majority of European gov ernments."
