MOTOR VEHICLE RECEIPTS SHOW BIG INCREASE Fiscal Year Ending June 30 Showed Aggregate of
 $3,4O9, ,O47.SS

Receipts of the state motor vehicle department for the fiscal year ended June 30 aggregated | $3,409,047.88, an increase of $1,282,275, or 60.2 per cent over the receipts for the previous fiscal year, which reached $2,126,77 During the last three months $975, BPS. 2S was taken in, showing a gain of 99.8 per cent over the receipts Cor the corresponding period of last year.
 The schedule of inceased fees for motor vehicle registrations is respon- sible for the greater part of the gain, as is indicated by the fact that the receipts from this source alone aggregated $2,717,239 in the fiscal year just closed, as compared to $1,603,135. .84 in the year closed June. 30, 1921. There was, therefore, gain of nearly 70 per cent in this respect. The additional charge of one dollar for operators licenses accounts for $165,OO0 more of the increase, while 1O,735 additional operators makes up the remainder of the difference.
 The increased rates applied only to slightly more than the last half of the fiscal year in the case of motor vehicle registrations and only to the last five months in the case of operators licenses. That is because the law changing the rates did not go into effect until the first of this year, on car registrations, and because the year for operators licenses begins on March 1. However, such registra- tions and licenses are issued for some time in advance of the dates when effective.
 Motor vehicles of all kinds increas- ed by 10,176 during the fiscal year, bringing the total up to 153, ,424, as compared to 143,248 in the previous year The past three months saw gain of 17,353 in motor vehicles registered, easily taking up a de- crease in registrations which occur red last fall. There was a gain of about 5000 operators in the same period.
 As indication of the revival of business is seen in the fact that, while there was a, decrease of 1,230 in the number of commercial motor vehicles registered during the past fiscal year, registrations of this kind increased sharply in the past quarter from 3,315 in 1921 to 4,977 in 1922. At this rate the next quarter will see the. decrease entirely wiped out (and replaced by gain. At the end of. the fiscal year, \25, ,230 commercial motor vehicles had been registered as against 26,460 in the previous year.

 Shows Falling Of Tn Disease in June

Out of a total of 1887 native tested cattle tested during June, 100 were condemned as tubercular, the monthly report of Commissioner on Domestic Animals James M. Whittlesey shows. This reflects a considerable decline in the percent age of bovine tuberculosis over the previous month. Nineteen cattle were quarantined during the month.

Authentic Boxing Pictures

The authentic motion pictures of the ., Dempsey-Carpentier boxing contest will be the special attraction at the Mahaiwe Theatre, Great Harrington, this week Friday, matinee and evening.
 Tex Rickard, promoter of the match between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpenter, is sponsor for the pictures, which may be taken as sufficient guarantee that they are the "real thing" More than twenty cameras were used.
 Much has been said of Georges Carpenter and that famous second round when the worlds championship held by single thread. Much also has been said of Jack Dempsey and his fighting tactics. But only the accurate unerring eye of the motion picture camera has been able to positively register each and every detail. Hence, the pictures should prove an interesting study.

WHITFoRD' Vs. LEE
Supreme Court Grants New Trial,
 Finding Error ~~

\ The Supreme Court rendered a decision in the case of Rufus IL. Whitford vs. Ada Strong Lee last Friday at New Haven finding error and granting a new trial on the ground that the Judge was in error in withholding the final judgement until after the October Term of the court had expired by reason of wording of the statute providing for a term or session of the Superior Court "At Litchfeld on the first Tuesday in October, which term and session shall continue, provided there is sufficient business to be transacted until the Friday preceding the first Tuesday in December" The Court finds. that the word 'suntil" means that the Court could not legally continue after that date. Judge Maltbie had rendered judge ment for the defendant to recover costs on January 3rd, 1921.

honesty and honor, righteousness and obedience, virtue and religion.
 /. In the fourth place, your prefer ence for a plain form of worship and good preaching is an undoubted advantage, a worship of God in spirit and truth, a preaching of the gospel of Gods love as shown in Jesus Christ, a growth of Christian character and an increase in the real joy of life. A young aspirant received the following advice from an experi- enced minister: "When you go to preach, in the city, wear your best z = tcsss: when you go to the country, take your rest address" Tn the. country church one may look for an audience that is really deeply interested, an audience ,tt at does not get tired when the sermon takes n:ora than IS or 20 minutes of the time, an audience that is not to be experimented with by inc tricks Of a religious trade or entertained by all sorts of new and striking things. The people work hard during the week. They are occupied with a lot of trivial and trying matters. Questions come to them, live -ques- tions, which they like to have answered. So, when Sunday comes, it is holy day to them, a day set apart for rest in body and mind. Their personal and home life centers in their house of worship, a conse- crated place. They are in earnest. They want to be instructed and led in the way of truth, have their hearts set upon the highway of righteousness. Hungry, they wish to have their souls satisfied with the words of eternal life. You cannot send them empty away, if you are a good shepherd of the flock.
 A fifth advantage is that the life of a country community revolves largely about it's church. The people generally appreciate its value, honor it's services. This is especially the case where there is but one church and so religious interests are not divided. Hence the tendency in small towns now IS to consolidate pr federate the churches so as to enable them to live and act as one church. Then the local parish, too, is fairly we'll defined. Societies, like the grange and others, are no hindrance, but an aid to the strong church, whose aim it is to incorporate the whole civic community, not to contr1 it's affairs or to be benefited by it's gifts, but to pervade it with it's own divine spirit of love and sacrifice. 2 +..:..
 The old traditional orthodoxy, now revived as fupdamentalism, is not likely to cause disturbance in our country churches because these are founded historically upon faith in spiritual essentials which underlie all right thinking and all virtuous endeavor. The community has confidence in a church that can hold it's ground all along up the way of progress. It feels drawn to it by many chords of hallowed association. Hence we find the best people so dearly loving their old home church. 1 A last word, in closing, must lay { emphasis, on the future of the country church. Its great advantage is that it has future, a most promis- ing future. The country town is going to grow and its church along with it. Under circumstances resulting from the great war and as

OPEN-AIR DANCE
First of the Season Held at Play
 ground on Monday Evening

Monday afternoon being clear, the committee being energetic, and the moon being Sin the full', the first open air dance of the season was held on the Play Ground, under the auspices of the Canaan Commun- ity Association. "
 The new pavilion for the orchestra is "a great addition, otherwise every thing is as last year, even to the spirit of the dancers and the enjoy nnent of the onlookers who surround the canvas, seated on benches or in their cars. The colored lanterns, and bright/costumes make a picturesque scene.
 Open Air dances will be held every Saturday evening, unless stormy, in which event, the dance will be held on the first clear evening following the stormy Saturday.
 The proceeds are to be used by the Community Association, entirely for improvements on the Play Ground, where there is much to be done and get the new baseball diamond in shape and to renovate the play apparatus for the children It is hoped that those who are inter. ested in this movement will not only lend their presence, but>will advertise these dances through their friends in surrounding towns.
 We must not forget in these even ings of pleasure the splendid gener osity of Samuel A. Eddy in making this possible through his gift to tht Village, of this same-Lawrenc' Play Ground.

DEER SNARE HOLDS
 COW FOR 36 HOURS

Albert Van Vlack, who has, a farm on the lower road to East Canaan, missed one of his cows last week and all efforts to locate her were unavailing. After a search covering a period of 36 hours the animal was located
 under a wild apple tree on Canaan mountain with one of it's hind legs securely held in what appeared to be a snare set for deer. The snare was made of wire similar to that used for clothes lines. The animal was in an exhausted condition and the leg held by the snare badly swollen.
