OFFICIALS SAY STRIKE NEAR
 SETTLEMENT

J. F. Flick, station agent, has stated that the strike situation In Bridge port and the neighboring towns is practically settled New Haven and c1ared.
 Although he was still hiring em- ployees to go both to New Haven and Stamford he said that most of the men had toen hired and today he felt that the work of hiring would be over. Four hundred Inlen have been sent to the two above named cities.
 In consid eration of changes in the cost of 1iviurg the management of the New Haven road has consistently used the results of the studies of the Special Commission on the Necessa- .ries of Life of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This commission was eesta tablished in 1919 when the cost of living was increasing, for the special purpose of finding out what the changes in the cost Of living actually had been.
 Its analysis of the cost of living in cluded changes in the retail price of food, clothing. fuel and light. rents and sundr1es, the latter including car- fare, entertainment, medicine, dnsur- ance. house furnishings, dues for or gan1zat!ons and other related items. Os1ng the index of these costs for the year 1913 as a basis and calling it 100 per cent. the Commission found the cost Of living increased stea dily throughout the years 1914 to 1918 !IdCiusiHs ana reached a. peak in July, 1920 when it was approximately dou-
 Die that of the year 1913. The con- tinued studies of the Commission l have show that the cost of living has been reduced about 25 per cent. and that the costof living today is ap- proximately 55 per cent higher. than it was in the year 1913.
 The rates of pay in effect in July, | 1914 had been fixed by agreement and l may therefore be considered as req SOnab1e for that time. The hourly I rates in 1914. the rates prescribed by l the Labor Board for July 1922 with the increase for representative groups | of men are as follows:

THE PRAYER
OF A HORSE
By Laurence e. Cash

o MAN, my Lord and Master, hear
Thou my prayer:
Water me, feed me, keep me clean
and work me in reason. 0 Lord, when
my days work be done give me shell
ter from rain, wind and cold and
clean, dry bed In a stall wide enough
for me to lie down In comfort. Do
not tie my head in an unnatural po-
sition or cut off my tail, which is
my only defense against flies. Do not,
o Man, drive me rapidly down hill.
o Lord, do be merciful and consider
ate of me in hot weather, and do not
kick, strike or otherwise abuse me
when l do not understand your de-
SireS. Prod me not with mercileSS
spurs. Teach Thou me to understand
Thy desires. Speak gently unto me,
o Lord, Thy voice means more to
me than whip and reins. have
sense of humor. Play with me, and
pet me, o Man, and / will gladly lend
myself to Thee in willing service.
Have mercy on me, o Master, when
have collie, and do give me one spoon
full of Di-Col-Q. 1t will relieve me.
quickly. When have scours drench
me with Di-Col-Q. And, o Master,
when / be CALLED, have sores on
shoulders or back, wire cuts, scratches,
mango or swellings, apply Thou Di-
Colo to mine affected parts and
will praise Thee for relief from mine
affections. Di-Col-Q will enable me to
do Thy bidding with delight.
0 Man, Di-Col-Q is just as good for
similar human ills.
Remember, o Lord, Di-Col-Q is made
in mercy by New York Drug Concern,
401 Lafayette Street, New York City.
Praise Thou this firm for their allevi-
alton of beastly ills.
o Master, when fail to eat exam
ine my mouth for the cause. Do not
work me when I can not eat. Be mer-
ciful unto me, o Man, and ! will serve
Thee and Thy family many years
with glad heart.
Finally, o Lord, when my youthful
beauty and strength be gone, and my
days of service ended, neither turn
me out to starve and freeze, nor sell
me to some cruel man to be tortured.
o Man, If Thou be financially unable
to care for me in my old days, take
Thou my life IN the kindest way.
Hear and answer my prayer, o my
Lord, and YOUR God will reward you
both here and in the hereafter.
With all reverence so pray unto
Thee in the name of Him, who was
born In q manger-AMEN,
