Graduates Recital

large and enthusiastic audience
gathered in the School of Music Au-
ditorium Tuesday evening, the occa-
sion being a graduation recital by
Misses Josephine Carter Barney and
Adelaide Rowe. These young must
clans gave a program which was ar
tistic in high degree. Each has an
adequate technical equipment, and in
addition brought out musical qualities
of her solos in a manner that would do
credit to many professional soloists.
Both come from musical families,
Miss Barney being daughter of DR..
and Mrs. j. N. Barney and a niece of
Mr.. j. Willard Adams, both we'll known
in musical circles, and Miss Rowe, the
latter being singer and musician of
high attainments
Miss Barney's selections were Fam
tasia in D. Minor, by Mozart another
beautiful miniature), the first move
ment from the Beethoven Sonata, opus
2, number 3, played with interpretative
qualities showing an understanding of
the classics. Her second group was
Franz LISTS Cantique' glamour, play
ed with soulful expression, and the
last movement from MacDowells
Sonata Eroica, IN which she displayed
a brilliant technique, and wide range
of shading.
Misses Barney and Rowe also played
two selections by Grieg on two pia-
nos, Auf den Bergen (On the Noun
tainl, and Papillon Butterfly, which
showed the result of much patient and
careful practice, and were among the
finest selection of this nature heard in
Fredericksburg.
Both were the recipients of much
applause as well as masses of flowers
from their admiring friends. -Freder-
icksburg Daily Star.
Miss Barney is gran ddaughter of
Mrs. D. D. Carter and niece of
Mrs. D. D. Davis, and has many friends
in Woodstock, where she frequently
visits.

PAY CHECKS TO WIVES

Down in New Orleans the city is going to send the pay checks of the city employees to their wives in the homes. The authorities say the money belongs in the home and they are go- ing to try to keep it there. Then they say that after the checks once gets into the home it will be the fault of the wives if they don't keep it there.
 Well, well. and again, well. Of course the wives cannot cash the pay checks because the husbands, who earned the money, will have to endorse those checks unless the au- thorities go little farther and allow the wives to endorse for the husbands or issue the cheeks direct to the wives. A good many thoughts are inspired by this big news. It is pretty safe to say any city employe down there who is now single will be apt to stay single. It is quite sure also that the wives will want to know just where the husband is going to get the checks cashed and what he does with the proceeds. It
New Britain herald., 1923-03-31

will be pretty hard for the poor 'el-
 low to hold out" on his wife, Many of them will be like the late lament ed author who was always accom- panied by his wife to the publishing home where he got his weekly check And she certainly did know all about that check,
 But the surest thing of all is that the city authorities of New Orleans have been bitten by the ycnomous bug which stings the idea into persons in a little authority that it Is their duty to take away as much personal liberty as possible from anyone under their And that is the idea that Is going to cause a lot Of trouble in this peaceful land of ours unless peo- pie get over drawing that chalk mark upon which people must walk.

TE,IPLEToN's DIRECTION

or course Governor Tcmpleton has
 perfect right to announce that he
 does not approve Of the bill which
 would permit of playing professional
 Sunday baseball games. There are
 many worthy people who agree with
 him--and there are probably many
 more worthy people who believe, as this newspaper believes, that each community should be allowed to de- eide the matter for itself,
 His reasons for obiecting to the measure, however, show that he feels somewhat this way also, and his req sons are worth quoting as being somewhat peculiar: T don't believe Connecticut wants to legalize Sunday sports" he says. We are not ready" thus indicating that Sunday sports will probably be acceptable to Connec- ticut in time. There is a great diff ferencs," he goes on. between allow ing Sunday baseball, as we do in Wa terbury, and egalizing Sunday base ball. Anyone can stop the game in Waterbury, but no one desires to do so.' If anyone could stop it, of course it is illegal, so, by inference at least, the Governor declares that it is good thing to have law which can be enforced if anyone wants to enforce it, but which may be allowed to be just as long as no one objects to such violation. If baseball were legalized." he adds, mo one could stop the game, and it would be open ing the door to legalizing everything else. If the bill comes to me I shall exercise my veto power"
 In other words it is better to wink at violation of one law and enforce others than it is to enforce all laws, making this possible by legalizing the things the people show they want and making illegal the things that are wrong. It is rather peculiar way of looking at the law a peculiar reason for vetoing a law which would make, certain things legal which the people consider per fectly proper.

PARSONS STATEMENT

A pretty good general idea of the
 prosperity of the country as whole
 may be formed by one who has fol-
 lowed Roger Babson in his extended tour. This week, in speaking of Cali
 fornia, he warns that state that itshas been comparatively free from recur-
 ring periods of depression because people from other parts of the coun- try have kept coming there with the money they have made elsewhere. He warns against the time when the orange trees in Florida will come into bearing, about 1927, and says that by that time Florida and California will be in close race for eastern mar kets. This is exactly in line of his warning to New England of the great growth Of manufacturing in different parts of the country, and this is the important point for New Englanders to remember. ..a -.s. 5
 Again he refers to the beginning of the recent depression as being here, and again he says that the outlook in the locality of which he writes, namely the West, is good because of the advertising and selling campaigns which are bringing results, He pre- diets that the building boom will con- tinue through 1928, which means, of course, that we cannot expect to build much cheaper than at present for at least nine months. Many mills in the West, he says, have sufficient business on their books to keep them running at capacity for some months.
 As to the general business of the whole country Mir. Babson continues his optimism. The Babson chart shows it to be per cent above normal, as it was last week, as against 12 per cent below normal q year ago. All of | which suggests the wisdom of re- i moving our coats and keeping at it [ steadily, with a close eye to the possi ! bility of too great enthusiasm and op- | timism inspiring a dangerous splurg- ing,

A TIME FOR THOUGHT

The, Herald has stated frequently
 that the time to consider well mat
 ter is at the moment of it's occurrence.
 The lessons learned by an experience
 should be considered well as soon as
 they appear in order that, when a
 similar occasion arises, those lessons
 ment and wise action.
 Now is the time for all good men
 and true to come to the aid," not of
 their party" as the old expression
 has it but rather to the aid of those institutions much bigger, more inn
 portant than party" namely their city, their state and their coun- try. The development of the country is the development of the states, and the development of the latter is the development of the towns, communi- ties and cities in each state. Connecti- cut is an important cog in the ma chinery of development of the United States, and New Britain is not the least important of the political divi- sions of the state The growth of any tendency, for good or bad, in cities and states, is reflected in the develop ment Of the country. It will grow in one direction, the right direction or the wrong. The intensifying of any wrong tendency politically in any community, no matter how great or how small, should be matter of sin cere, honest study. There is no way to keep this splendid land of ours democratic free country. except by jcalously guarding the free use of the suffrage according to the will of the great mass of the people.
 : Politically the freedom of the peo- ple of New Britain is in danger and it is only because they do not rise np, not with foolish violence which is the weapon of the ignorant, but with the weapons that were placed in their hands by the sincere, earnest wise founders of our govern ment-the weapon of the ballot Use of this weapon would eefectually check the advance of the enemy of democracy and bring again the inde- pcndence which our fathers declared | mould be ours.
 And this moment is the time for ,erious thought about this rusting Of | he peoples weapons This is the mo- nent when there has been seen, first n the voting of only 72 people out if the thousands entitled to vote for nominees for the, city meeting board, md second in the placing in nomina-
