THROUGH THE GOLDEN GATE.

Reports have it that republicans may select San Francisco as the scene of the 1924 republican convention.
 One may heartily approve of the site. Whether it is anyone's business other than the republican leaders or nor; whether or not expression of opinion is desired from the ordinary person who is not affiliated with the party, or any party; whether or not those republican leaders what the people think about it-stil one may dare to approve of San Francisco as the place where the G. o. P. or the o. G. P. (Old Guard Picnic) will meet to determine who shall lead up the incline to the goal of blazing vic tory or down the declivity to dark de- feat, at the next Presidential election.
 For the ordinary person who is not connected with any party because of its name, but who is ready to con meet with the party which presents the best man and principles, may we'll feel that by the year 1924 no group of men will be able to look out over the vast expanse of the ocean, through the Golden Gate and to see on the horizon of the world man whose stature resembles that of a pigmy. It would seem to the ordin- ary individual who has not forgotten the great names of the past, that the location of the great city on the coast would be conducive to lofty inspira- ton which would suggest as candi- date, not a man who will prate of mems rights to freedom and be con- man who would feel the vital neces- sity of assuming a leadership at Washington which would compel the respect of men and women of all parties, of men and women of all walks in life and of all varied in- terests-a man whose suggestions would be followed, sometimes even little blindly perhaps, because of the peoples faith in his wisdom and hon. esty. The election of such man would not be disaster even though he might have been a Republican all his life, and the election of Dem ocrat over him would be ample proof that the man of the hour" had been found.

TRIBUTE PAID ID
 BRAZIL'S VIM. PENN
General Rondon Compared to
 Quaker Leader

Washington, D. C., July 7.-The National Geographic society has elected to honorary membership Gen Candido Mariana da Silva Rondon famous explorer, often called the Will liam Penn of Brazil.
 Gen. Rondon won this popular char acterization for his peaceful pene- tration of the practically unknown Matto Crosse wilderness, now re- nowned for it's rubber where he so successfully won the confidence of the natives by his fair treatment and hu- man assistance that they even helped him string telegraph wires through the jungle of their hitherto forbidden land.
 Gen. Rondon is the ninth man elected to honorary membership in the National Geographic society, one of the ether eight being the late Theodore Roosevelt who, upon his re- turn from his Brazilian explorations, made known Rondon's work in this country by his high praise of the Brazilian's achievements.
 Gen. Rondons name henceforth will he perpetuated on Brazilian maps by the name Rondonia, given by his government to an area fifteen per cent larger than the state of Califor- mia, in Matto Crosse. the Wild West" of Brazil.
 For B years Gen. Rondon has been at work in this vast wilderness. As chief of a special commission he built a telegraph line across the Jungle from Cuyaba, in the southeast, to the Madeira river. But his outstanding service. perhaps. is that performed as commissioner of Indian affairs of Brazil, where his policy of non-re- tsliation and kindness toward the ln- dians won their friendship, conserved their own civilization and constituted what has been called the greatest government conservation of aborig- ines in the New World today"
 In his letter to Gen. Rondon, trans mitted through the Brazilian ambas- sador, Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, presi- dent of the National Geographic So- ciety said in part:
 Tt becomes my happy privilege to inform you that the National Geo. graphic society, through it's board Of trustees having in view your splendid services to civilization through your work with and in behalf of the abo- rignes of Brazil, and your notable contributions to geography through your exploratory expeditions, has unanimously elected you an honorary membe, of the society. the highest honor if can confer,
 T wish to assure you of my own high personal esteem and of my hope that such deeds as yours may serve to knit the Americas together into an even closer bond of fraternity and fellowship" =-.

THE CHILDREN.

Are you going to be one of those who would damn the children to a summer of suffering from the heat, 1nrelieved by breath of fresh air ?
 Are you going to be one of the peo- pie who would not turn over your hand to give strength to frail chill dren when such strengthening might mean life?
 The children of New Britain who are in great need of fresh, country air, have a chance to gain in weight and health at the Fresh Air Camp at Burlington. Certain people in the city have contributed to the fund for them. Certain others have not. If you have not given your bit, small or great, you probably have not real ized that If all the people in the city did exactly as you have done some three hundred children of this city would go on through the summer, losing weight and strength as the hot weather became more oppressive. Every pound they lost would be directly traceable to you-if you do not help. If you help every pound they gain will be traceable to you.
 Do you want to pull a pound from the thin body Of some child?
 Or do you want to add a pound?
 Shylock demanded his pound of flesh.

FIREWORKS AND POLICE.

New Britain enjoyed it's fireworks display. The police of the city helped make this possible.
 Anyone who was in Walnut Hill park last night and saw a part of the crowd of forty thousand people there, must come to the conclusion that the celebration was worth while. It frightened the life of the city, not only literally through the brilliancy of the glow of the shooting, blazing mechanical spectacles, but through the atmosphere of pleasure, life, that was engendered.
 The great number of automobiles trailing through the park and out ede of it, was a feature. To keep fhese vehicles moving when they should be moving, and to see that fhey were parked when it was proper fer them to be parked, required well

 Altogether the evening was a most one and people are put ting more life into their work today because, in addition to the shining sparks Of the fireworks, there came sparks of increased pleasure of living to all who spent a little while at the celebration last night

SELLING GASOLINE BY
SHORT MEASURE COSTS
AUT0ISTS A HUGE SUM
BY the Associated Press.

Washington, Sept. 1O.-"Short
measure selling' of gasoline
today was estimated by the Ma
tional Motorists association to be
costing purchasers $90,000,000 a
year. This figure was based on
an estimate that each of the TO-
100000 motorists of the United
States buys two gallons of gasoline
daily, and that the average filching
from "short measure artists"
amounts ta-two pints in each five
gallons, resulting in total daily
loss to purchasers of 100000 gal
Ions, valued at approximately
$250,000.
The association announced its
intention to combat the 'short
measure" selling.
Tests were recently conducted,
1t was said, in Cleveland, Louis
vile and Kansas City, although in
one large city one or two cases
of filching was reported.

and in i'll health. are believed to
constitute the motive that caused
Phillip Morris, SO. an inmate of

days after she received her last
compensation check from the Red
Cross as a flood refugee. The
flood destroyed the Morris home

Smyrna, Is momentarily ex-

Greeks have lost the battle
around Smyrna, and the Greek
administration ceased in Iona
last night. All the members OF

M. Stergiadis are on board the
British battleship Iron Duke.
The Greek army has beeh hope
lessly beaten. The occupation OF
Smyrna is expected tonight.
Mustapha Renal Pasha the

established headquarters in
allied and American consuls to
proceed there with the purpose
of arranging the taking over of
the city with a minimum of dis
order. The meeting was fixed
for o'clock this afternoon in
Kassaba.
Hostilities ceased today. Nazilli,
Alden and other towns were
burned. The greatest confusion
reigns In Smyrna. A wireless
dispatch broadcast by the Angora
government announces to all the
complete humiliation of the
Greek army. geek headquarters
has been transferred to Chesme,
the Island of Mytlene.
The Greek troops are being rap
idly evacuated by vessels.
The allies have published a
proclamation in Smyrna urging
the population to maintain order
1t promises that the allies will
secure guarantees for the pro-
lection of the minorities. The
allied assurances, however, have
not had any effect on the ter
rorized population. The Greek
patriarch this morning = tele-
graphed the Archbishop of Can
terbury in London and Premier
David Lloyd George to use their
good offices in favor of the
Christians in Anatolia.
The Greek losses, as far as it
has been possible to ascertain
them up to the present time are
total except for the third army
corps which is believed to be
from Brusa to Pan
derma, with all its material.
A wireless dispatch from one
Of the allied warships at Mudania
says the Turks have taken Cham
elek and Brusa. Ten thousand
refugees remained in Mudania.
History is said never to have
recorded so complete a disaster
as the Greeks have met. 1t Is
asserted that Austrias defeat in
the Caporetto during the world
war is as nothing compared with
the debacle of the Greeks.
