CREEKS WANT STEAMSHIP
 LINE TO ASIA MTNOh

Great interest Is being taken by per sons of Hellenic blood in various parts of Connecticut in the Greek exhibits to be made at America's Making, to be held in New York city, from October 29 to November 12. Americas Making is the namc of an exhibition showing three centuries If immigrant contributions to the life of the United States. Rev Thomas Lacey, Greek exhibits chair man of Fourth avenue and Pacific street Brooklyn, N. Y. writes as follows:
 Our Greek exhibits claim the personal s,1pport. of every American of Greek descent. Americas Making affords a rara opportunity to the Greeks to show in a concrete way how largely their race. has entered into the economic life of our country. Prof. Ross asserts that every Greek in America Is self-support- ing.
 Greek immigration began In 1891. Now the sons of Hellas arc scattered over every serion of this country. Their economic activities extend over a wide range: cigarette making, flower selling. confectionery manufacture, fur working, milling, mining, shoe shining, sponge diving Chairman Lacey might have added to the list of activities of the Hel- lenes the restaurant business which is largely Tn ther hanQS m some ol tilt leading cities of Connecticut.
 The progressive spirit of the Greeks of the southe7stern part of this state Is proven by the organization of the Creek American Chamber of Commerce of New London The purpose of the chamber is to stimulate interest in the possibilities of steamship line from New London tc Asia Minor.
 The members are sure of the success of King Constantine and his valiant army in Asia Minor, in the Ca mpaign tc break Turkish power in that ancfenr country.
 They also believe that New London iS th= logical United States terminal for the steamship line, since that port is the natural maritime gateway for a great | industrial section of this country, ir which a very large number of products ara made that will be needed in the de velopment of the economic life of Asis Minor after that country will have beer brought under Greek sway.

STATES WEEKLY WAGE
 AVERAGE HAS TAKEN DROP

A reduction of $6.40 a week in the average wage of Connecticut people has occurred during the past year, it was disclosed by figures compiled in Hart ford The 3resent average weekly wage is S26.30. A year ago it was $32.7o. Notwithstanding the drop, savings banks throughout the state report that wage earners are trying not to draw on their savings, many of which accumulated during the period of high wages.
 The present weekly average may not be an altogether satisfactory barameter
 owing to the fact that most of the people who are now out of work are the ones whose weekly pay would be low and the fact that they are not no receiv- ing wages eliminates these figures from those which go to make the average.
 The present average weekly wage would amount to S1,367.6O a year, if the workers were employed for the full 52 weeks This is $132.40 less than the minimum fixed by the American Fedora tion of Labot recently for the support of a city workman and his family of five in decent condition. In 1910. it was estimated that S10 week or s520 a year was enough and considerably later,
 John Mitchell set the minimum at SPA.

FOUR SURVIVORS REACH

Philadelphia, Sept. 15-Three Amer ican tennis players and one Australia sian will battle tomorrow and Saturday for the national singles championship of 1921 on the courts of the Germantown Cricket club. They are the sole survivors of the 10th entrants who began the fortieth annual titular tournament here almost a week ago. In reaching the serni-final round today William T. Tilden, End, of Philadelphia, defeated F. Gordon Lowe of England, 6-4, 6>S, 6-4; Wallace F. Johnson of Philadell hia eliminated his townsman, Craig Riddle, so, 6-3, 6-4 ; J. o. Anderson of Australasia won from Francis T. Hunter of New York 6-3, 6-3, 6-4; and Willis E. Davis of San Fran cisco triumphed over Robert G. Kinsey also of San Francisco 6-S, 4-6, 6-4, 1-6, 6-4
 In every case the matches were fully typified by these scores. Tilden, Ander- scn and Johnson won with comparative ease in straight sets. The Davis-Kinsey contest however, was hard, gruellng struggle which left both players ex- hausted at the finish, so much so in fact that Kinsey had to receive first taid treatment before he could leave the courts
 Chief interest centered in the meeting of Tilden and the Englishman, Lowe, and there was a gallery of 10000 spectators when play began. Humid atmosphere and a hot sun made the exertions of the players dodbly strenuous. The win ner of each match appeared eager tC finish his opponent ar soon as possible This was particularly true of Tilden ant he hurried through his. play with Lowe in a manner which induced a number | of errors This with the take a chance attitude of Lowe in the last set enlivener match which otherwise would hav been comparatively fiat.

During the time that the quarantine law on dogs has been in effect in this town since August 51st, many local own CTS and keepers of dogs have found their dogs in the hands of the dog war den and themselves in trouble that has hrought them before the police court in some cases Keepers of dogs have ap- parently failed to appreciate the appli- cation of the law as to the confinement of a dog, and some have evidently thought they were obeying the law when they had their dog in yard behind a fence, or a veranda, or even riding in the owners automobile
 In response to an inquiry Thursday City Attorney Lee R. Robbins gave the following interpretations o1 the law;
 Apparently all the difficulty is due, first to a lack of appreciation of the decidedly drastic nature of the new law and, second, to indifferent reading and inserpretation or atcual ignorance of its rea,iirements Section three demands that all dogs shall be quaranttned in close con hnement or securely chained on the premises. Close confinement and securely chained are strong terms. l should not consider a dog on veranda, ar in an automobile, or out in a yard with the owner side of it. as being in close confinement.

INTERPRETS LAW FOR DOG OWNERS

a house are not necessarily closely con fined for that depends more upon tfV care exercised to see that they do not get out. If such dog gets out, as several have, the owner is responsible Close confinement really means effective con finement A dog is not chained when tied with a rope although a good many seem to think a rope vii! suffice. The dog warden had to dispatch dog yes tcrday that the owner had tied with a rope in a yard surrounded by picket fence This animal became mad, broke the rope in two. jumped over the fence and ran free. Of course the owners in tentions were good but he had not com piled with the law and so was respons- ible Division A of section three allows dogs to be led on leashes of not more than five feet in length, held in the hand of the owner, attendant or keeper of responsible age. The law especially di- rects the dog warden to capture and take into his custody every dog not confined and controlled agreeable to the law and to impound and hold and kill the same if unclaimed When such dog
 is claimed the warden is entitled to col lect the legal fee of three dollars"
 The laws above quoted from were pub lished in the Norwich Bulletin for five days beginning August 26, 1921.
