assistance within a few weeks after birth was told in the divorce proceed ings of Ethel G. Yale of Mansfield Mrs. Yale asked separation from AL fred J. Yale, who is now in parts un- known. He left for North Dakota a year ago to secure divorce, but noth- ing has been heard of him. Mrs Yale is now teaching in the Mansfield Training school and asked to have her name changed to Ethel Morton. After hearing all the testimony, Judge l.. P. Waldo Marvin of Hartford, granted the divorce. This is the second time that Mrs Yale has been divorced, the previous case being heard in Hartford where she secured a decree on the same ground, that of cruelty.
 Among the other cases heard was the case of Emily F. Abbey Cunning against Simon Rocca and others. This was a foreclosure of mortgage on a farm in the town of SOmers. There were two notes, one for $4,O0O at 5 per cent, and the other for $2,8O0 at 6 per cent. Nothing had been paid on this debt since April s, 1920. First Selectman Albert s. Hulburt of Somers placed a value at $6,525 on the land and buildings. Judgment was granted for $7,469.56 and the date for redemption was fixed as March 6.
 Another foreclosure case, Stanley Wisuis against Abraham Forster and others was also disposed on in like manner. This was on farm of 59 acres in Somers. First Selectman Hulburt placed the value at $6,5OO. The original note was for $4,50O and two hundred dollars had been paid. Judgment was granted for $4,3OO on the note with interest of $2O4.25 mak- ing a total of $4,5O4.25 The date for redemption was fixed at March $.

ALsAcE BEGINNING TO LIVE
Writer Finds a Feeling of Relief Pervadinu the People of the
 Province, With Reason.

It is a strange yet stimulating ex-. perience for anyone who is interested in the relations between peoples to visit the much contested strip of land known as Alsace. The last time was in Alsace was more than twenty years ago. It was the day after Bismarck's death, and everywhere the black white-red flags were hanging out at half-mast in honor of the man who had made the two provinces a Reisch- land-part of the new German em- pire.
 Today Bismarck's work is undOne; gone, even from Germany itself, is the black-white-red flag; gone are the Prussian officers and officials, the red halted station masters, and all the Oth- CT paraphernalia of imperial German routine. The older order survives but here and there, in the great official buildings erected aRd arranged on the grandiose German Cor, as the Ger mans now call it. Wnhelmian) scale, fn the familiar square blue German letter boxes, in the neat blue street signs which have been left standing with a neat new French sign affixed above or beneath. No doubt the minor officials have been but little changed. The village station master and the postman have but doffed their German insignia to don it's more easy-ftting French equivalent. But if the men are the same, the faces, as well as the uniforms, are different. There is feeling of relief, of detente, in the air. One has the sense of a people that has returned to the normal. At last, after long ordeal, they can be themselves. They are free to settle down and to begin to live.-Alfred E. Zimmern in the Manchester Guardian.

House of historie lnterest.

One of the features of the tercen- tenary celebration of the landing of the Pilgrims, to be held at Plymouth, will be the openinig to the public of the William Harlowe house, built in 1877. This is one of the few build ings now remaining which stood with in the lifetime of any of those who came on the MayfiOwer, and it has a particular interest owing to the fact that it was framed with oak timbers from the old fort, which, as WinsloW relates, was built in 1922 on the top Of the hill under which the town was located" "a7. |
 After King Philips war, when dan ger from Indian depredatiOns had passed, the fort was dismantled and the timbers sold to Sergt. William Har- lowe, man of prominence in the col Ony, who used them in the cOnstruc- tion of his house on the ancient high way where it still stands.

GO HEAVY ON SOFT DRINKS
People of the United States Consume Annually a Vast Amount of
 Sweet Connections.

That more than $1,OOO,OOO,OOO is an nually spent in the United States Tor soft drinks is the conclusion reached by experts in the revenue bureau, who base the figures on the tax returns from the sale of 100000 100000 glasses a year at an average of ten cents a glass. This vast sum, according to chemist ill the health department, is paid for sodas and other drinks con- posed largely of coal tar products of practically no food value and masQuer- ading under the protective cloak of limitation" and artificial" which ex- empts manufacturers from punishment under existing statutes.
 Orangeade, if genuine, is glucose Sweetened water and oranges without any artificial cOlOring. The imitation orangeade, according to the chemists in the New York city department of health, is a combination of oil or orange coloring, sweetened with sacc- harine that comes in bottles. Saccha- rine is a coal tar product 300 times sweeter than sugar, and of no food value, which is considered injurious to health by medical authorities If taken in excess of four glasses day. P. o.

4 OUT OF S OF ALL FORD
CARS STILL IN SERVICE

Total production Of Ford cars,
which passed the 100000 mark
on May IS, gives a production
in excess of "a million for the
past year-the 100000 mark
having been achieved on May
2S, 1921.
OF this staggering total Of
6,000, 900 cars and trucks, 5,5l7,-
956 have been delivered to
purchasers in the United States
alone and the most recent
statistics show that 4,47S,248 Of
this number are still in daily
service.
When consideration is given to
the fact that tffe present type
motor has been in production
for fourteen years and that four
out of every five Ford cars and
trucks during this period are
still in daily service, the popular
conception of the long life OF
Ford cars Is borne out.
Daily production at the Ford
Motor Company is now close
to 5000 cars-the record one
day output of 4.s7s having been
achieved on May 16 and on the
previous working day in May,
1852 cars were completed.
