this miserable intruder has upset the

Quaker frock. Prudence receives the
greatest thrill of her life when
Henry's mother invites her to Haven
for visit, and with Jane, her chum,
she arrives at the fashionable resort.
Her dress at once excited the ridi-

darlings who frequent the resort.
Henry is ashamed OF her, and
showers his affection on Amy Tillson,

consuming passion with herself. The
climax comes when Prudence, very
fond of swimming, appears at the
swimming pool in a very somber
bathing suit, made by a seamstress
who believes that all of woman'S S

is magnificent in. her costume-the
envy of everyone at the gathering,
especially Henry, y who hastens to

CLENfENCEAU

The great man of France has been followed with interest across the ocean as he approached the shores of this country to which he would come to help in having France and America understand each other better Eight one years old he refuses to emphasize the past and keeps his eye on the present and the future. He works for that country of his, loving it with a heart as young as the youngest despite it's refusal to honor him with the Presi- dency. That, he says. is of the past No dwelling on and bemoaning the past in the makeup of this man who refuses to outline what he will say, but who wants to tell the people of this coun- try about his country, relying upon his own judgment of what those things shall be and disavowing any official responsibility.
 Clemenceau, in addition to the char acteristics that have made him the great man of his own country, is a splendid example of a perfect com- bination of strength, determination, and gentleness, love. None would &C., cuse him of lack of any of those qualities; none will say that he em- phasizes the value of one above the other. In this city few days ago an, American, knowing his France noted the fact that it was believed there that The Heart of America, once won, is never lost" Clemenceau is coming to make that heart understand for he believes that with understanding of his country will come renewed af- lection for 1t among the people of this.

MANCHESTER HERALD FIRE

Bound today to "The Manchester Herald" by bond of sympathy thor oughly appreciated, this newspaper is in 8 peculiarly good position to tell the interesting publication of Man chester just how understandingly it silently shakes its fire-scarred hand. No words are necessary between those who have suffered the same agony; both understand. No perfunctory phrase of coincidence could come to a contemporary suffering as the Man chester Herald is suffering today from a newspaper which year ago faced a situation similar to that the Man chester newspaper is facing
 But The New Britain Herald is in position to utter word of hope, unnecessary, perhaps, but, like many unnecessary things, perhaps appropri- ate. The grim smile of determination to carry on" which undoubtedly ap- pears on the face of the Manchester Herald today will be productive of re- suits. There is new experience await ing those interested in it. They will realize as never before the splendid satisfaction that comes from fighting when the cause is worth while. They will realize as never before who are their friends and how faithful are those who work for them. They will come out of the trying situation better able to All their place in their com munity than they were before, for they will be fortified by knowledge of what their newspaper means to those whom they try to please and how determined are their helpers to put their shoulders to the wheel under all circumstances.

 And what man or woman. remem- bering past triumphs, does not long to stand forth prominently again? True, this longing is to gain praise; true, the desire Is tinged with selfish ness. But In 1t is seen the love of life, the pathetic refusal to give up hope, the "never-say-die spirit that makes men and women fine and splendid. And 1t is this splendid quality in men and women that calls forth praise and enthusiasm from all others. As long as, this spirit lasts the world will be a poor place for pessimists.

Ing intoxicants is not good; who hay, voluntarily pledged themselves not ts

 The Tabs never stand behind any Prohibition" movement officially They believe in example; they believe in voluntary action, They do not set themselves up as paragons of recti- tude or virtue, They fight against no man because his opinion. hls habits, differ from theirs, They refuse abso- lutely and nnauelinedly to allow poll ties and the prohibition issue to in- fiuence their stand, IL is q purely vol untary matter with them. They be- lieve in total abstinence for them selves. Let others, judging life from their standpoints, take what attitude they please in the matter. The Tabs are eager to welcome those who be- lieve as they do in this regard; they refused to force their opinions down unwilling throats.
 Again be 1t said that at this time when the enforcement act is the sub ject of such criticism the attitude of the Tabs is significant. Many honest men believing in prohibition think that an infringement of personal liberty does greater general harm throughout the country than does liquor. Many believe sincerely that, with growing wisdom, temperance if not prohibition will come eventually. But they believe that 1t will come through the recognition by men of the horror of intemperance. They be- lieve that voluntary temperance is more of character builder and makes for greater efficiency and power than does involuntary obedience, un- der protest, to law which many de- nounce.
 The Herald congratulates the Tabs on the anniversary the society is about to celebrate and uses, with all sin cerity, the old expression: Many hap py returns of the day"

HOSPITAL AMBULANCE
 WILL BE DISCUSSED
Representatives of Institution and Po- lice Commissioners Will Con-
 sider Purchase of Ambulance.

A meeting of the police commission will be held Tuesday night for the purpose of discussing with represcn- tatives of the New Britain hospital, the need of the hospital maintaining an ambulance instead of, depending on the nlice department patrol to take sick Yeople to the institution. It is expected that the hospital will be rep resented by Dr. T. Eben Reeks, C. F. Bennett and Elisha H. Cooper.
 Chairman D, l.. Dunn, of the police commissi has called to the may or's attention the need of a change in the provision relating to compensa- ton and pensions of policemen. The wording of the article, rather than what is believed to be it's purport, is at fault, it is explained in the chair mans communications
 The present provision is that a man who receives payment under the workmen's compensation act or any amendment thereto cannot receive any payment from the pension ,fund Under one interpretation, a man in- iured in the performance Of his duty might accept pay while off duty, then return to work and if obliged to retire because of that injury would not be entitled to a pension. On the other hand if a policeman declined to ac- cept compensation and later the po- lice board turned down his petition for retirement he would lose out in both ways
 The article which the chairman would have changed, follows:

THE eTABS"

The local Young Mems Total Abstinence and Benevolent Society will observe the 41st anniversary of the birth of the local branch of that National organization next week. This local branch containing some 600 memb bers or more, is the largest branch in the country, and occupies an unique position in the affairs of New Britain. It is unique for what it does not do, quite as much as it is remarkable for it's accomplishments.
 At this time when prohibition is get ting to be such an issue in politics, the Tabs" as they are called famiiarly are especially interesting because 'prohibition" is not their issue. As nearly as one not member of the organization may express it. their theory is that every man is entitled to his freedom of thought providing it injures no one else. It man believes drinking anything intoxicating is or is not injurious 10 him spiritually or physically, he is entitled to either be- lief. If he believes his example in drinking would be injurious to others, and that it is up to him" to make his example in accordance with that belief. he is entitled to take stand which, he thinks. will help and not harm others. So he believes it proper to take that stand publicly. The "T'abs" are men of the Roman Cath olic faith who voluntarily stand before the people as men who believe drink

ANOTHER TRAFFIC PLAN

IT New Britain grows as optimists
 beliese the city will grow there will
 come the day when there will have
 to be some "one way street. arrange
 ment about central park. This should
 be kept in mind in any discussion Of traffic plans. Central park should not be destroyed so that, when such a day comes there will be no park about which traffic will run.
 Such plan as that suggested by the chairman of the board of public works and the city engineer, to cut off q portion of the park, to make West Main street continue straight down to Church street, must be carefully con- sidered before a sound opinion may be given on the wisdom of it. Plans for cutting down central park come up almost annually-and the traffic keeps on increasing together with the re- sultant congestion. Nothing is done. and nothing doing blocks traffic &C., tually and metaphorically."
 This plan of cutting off the corner
 flor that is what the suggestion amounts to-is merely temporarily lodging a real issue that must be faced. Decision will depend somewhat upon whether one looks at the idea from the utilitarian or the artistic standpoint, but with either viewpoint its advantages may be seen. If 1t were to be assumed that cutting off the park and making the street wider there would completely destroy the beauty of the center, it is right to take a decided stand against it. We want some artistry about the center of the city. But there is a decided question whether less congested street-inter- section there. even without that cor ner of4the park, would not be more. slightly than would be the park, left
 intact, but bounded by intersecting streets where congestion is almost con- stant in the busy hours-and it must be remembered that the busy hours are the hours when the city has more spectators than any other time of the day.
 It is quite certain, for instance. that spots in a city where wide streets, without traffic congestion, bound a park, are more slightly than spots where narrow street, always congested limit it. no matter how beautiful the park may be.
 This is a matter that should be freely discussed, not only by those whose business interests would be h. jured or helped by the plan-and they will be heard from-but by those whose business would not be affected but who have as much right in the city as the others. The city planning commission should take active part in ', the discussion of it. of course. The park cannot stand much shaving off but something has to be done about | the traffic until such a time as even i those who feel that ruin would stare them In the face if the "one way" idea prevailed have come to the conclu- sion that the system is inevitable. And, | as before indicated, when that day | comes there should still be some of | the park left to serve at least as a fitting spot for the memorial statue.
