COURT HOUSE LAWN is
RESTFUL TO THE EYE

One of the prettiest spots in
town at present is the court house
lawn which takes in an entire block
including the court house building
and county Jail. This lawn was
only planted early in the spring,
the ground prior to that time being
covered with rubbish Of various
sorts and remains of the old build
ings. Through the efforts and con-
slant care of caretaker Harry
Pearce and the county officials in
the sheriff's office, who have tended
the growth and moving of the lawn,
spot which is decidedly restful to
the eyes has been realized.

MRS. FELTON, 81,
TAKES Oath AS
WOMAN SENATOR
First to Be So Honored;
To Hold Office
for Day
Named by Governor to Fill Va
cancy Caused by Death Sen.
WatsOn-Will Give Way to
Walter F. George Elected to
Office on Nov. 7-Pays Res
poets to President

Washington, Nov. 21-Mrs. w. H.
FELTON,, of Georgia, took the oath of
Office today as the first woman Uni
ted States senator.
1T was true that her term probably
viii be only for day, but the cere-
mony crowned with success the eff
forts the eighty-seven year old lady
had made to "blaze the path for Am
erican womanhood" in the Senate and
it was indicated that she would be
content to step aside tomorrow in
favor Of Walter L. George, who was
elected November as her successor
to fill the uneXpired term of the late
Senator Watson. 1t was to the va
cancy caused by his death, that Mrs.
FELTON, was appointed last Septem-
Der to serve until the November cleo
lions.
The seating of Mrs. FELTON, attract
ed crowd to the Senate which riv-
allied that which had greeted Presi-
dent Harding a short time before at
the House where he addressed Con-
gress in joint session. And she was
at once showered with congratula-
tons upon the signal honor.
When she was directed to proceed
to the restrum for the administering
OF the oath of Office. her face hrok e
INTO smile. On the crm of Senator
Harris of Georgia, lifting her gown
daintily, she walked down the center
aisle and up to the vice presidents
desk, where Senator Cummins, of
Iowa, president pro tempore. was
presiding in the absence from the
city, of Vice President Coolidge.
AS Senator Cummins motioned for
her to raise her right hand, she ex-
hibited her only sign. of unfamiliarity
with the proceedings, waving her
hand to Mr.. Cummins and smiling
as if receiving a similar salute. SEN
ator Harris nudged her arm, however,
and she then raised it, gazing intent
ly at Senator Cummins as the oath
was delivered and giving her re-
Spouse in a low voice.
The seating Of Mrs. FELTON, had
been expected in view of the tacit
agreement of the Senate leaders to
lnterpose no objection in the face of
possible technical precedents as to
her status after the election on No
vember z, of her successor. But for
a time today it appeared as though
such objection might be offered and
definite assurance that the oath
would be administered was not
reached until after a delay of two
hours.
The principal delay was due to an
address of Senator Walsh Democrat,
Montana, in support Of her claim to
the Senate seat.
But at no time did Mrs. FELTON,
exhibit nervousness, sitting with
hands folded in her LAP and with
eyes on the Montana senator. She
arrived half hour before the Sen
ate convened and took the seat Of
the late Senator Watson after giving

Favor N. E. Rail
Consolidation at
Hartford Meeting

Hartford, Conn, Nov. 21-Manu-
facturers and Chamber of Commerce
represented at the first hearing on
the consolidating of New England
railroads. held this afternoon before
the Connecticut commission on rail-
road consolidation, all favored con-
solidating the New England roads
into single system rather than at
itching them to trunk line systems
now in existence. Mny Of those
present opposed consolidation of the
roads at all.
Governor Everett J. Lake opened
the meeting and turned it over to E.
Kent Hubbard. chairman of the rail-
road commission, who outlined the
history Of railroad consolidation and
the problems which face the COM
mission.
r. l.. French, president Of the New
England Traffic League, said that
the desire of that organization was
to preserve al the through routes
which were now in existence and he
felt that If the New England roads
were consolidated with trunk lines.
certain gateways now open to New
England shippers would be closed.
He also favored consolidation of New
England roads as a means of cutting
expense by having fewer offices.
Jesse L. Atwater, of New Britain,
representing the American Traffic
Association, said the railroads needed
less regulation rather than CONSOLE
dation, but if consolidation was nee
essary. the New England system was
the only practicable one.
President E. j. Pearson, of the
New Haven road said that read
justment of railroad rates was COM
ing and asked the manufacturers
whether they would rather deal with
executives in offices here or in an
other section of the country when
that time came.
Public Utilities Commissioner
Richard T. Higgins, highway COM
missioner Charles J. Bennett, Ex-
Governor Carl E. Milliken of Maine,
and others also spoke.
