Imagine, If you can, a steeplejack

more or less rough-and-ready coat of
paint to flagpole.
It may seem foolish that fagpole

of paint; but anyway, that's the case.
Right in the midst of a busy morn
ing's painting an adventurous bee
buzzes into the picture. In fact, there
are two bees, both buzzing viciously.
What should the steeplejack do?
There being in the profession no
local rules for buzzing bees, your
average steeplejack probably would
get the all-clear signal from below and
slide promptly down to safety.
But not Our Hero.
He takes out his pipe, lights it, and
goes on painting.

frankly about pipe smoking.
And, by the way, although there
are only twenty-five genuine, no
scaffold steeplejacks in the country,
Our Hero is one of them.
We have no way of knowing what
kind of tobacco the steeplejack pours
into his pipe on these bee-buzzing oc-
casions, but we have feeling that it
Is Edgeworth.
For Edgeworth does much to give
the smoker a sense of calm and
peaceful security.

It is requested that any extra tick cts to concerts, musicales, lectures. or affairs of similar nature subscribers may have be sent to Miss Maude Ira vers, head of the Training School for Nurses connected with the New Brit ain hospital for use by the nurses who have shown their appreciation of them in the past.
 Mrs. George T. Kin1ball, who has charge of this plan, which worked so successfully last year, explains that in this way tickets to such entertain ments not only find their way into the hands of those who appreciate fully the entertainments and the courtesy of the donors, but also that such thoughtfulness adds to the pleasant side of the life of the women who are devoting themselves to the study of nursing, Tightening the tedium of their difficult course of training and giving the graduate nurses also an op- portunity to relieve the trying aspect of their work.

AUTOMOBILE LIGHTS

Of course everyone has been lectur- ed about the danger of brilliant auto-
 mobile lights. The habit of being
 courteous and helping others to drive
 safely upon the country roads seems
 to be growing. It is the exception ra- ther than the rule now to meet car
 the driver of which refuses to dim his
 lights when approaching another car
 coming in the other direction.
 One man, having just bought a car and not having been informed about the proper practice of dimming his
 lights when meeting another car at night, tells an amusing tale of himself. He says that one of the first long drives was from New York to New Britain, at night. He sat at the wheel, more or less uneasy in the darkness because of his unfamiliarity with the he met other automobiles that their lights would wink at him. The drivers first allowing their briliance to blind him, would then dim them and bright on them rapidly. The gentleman mentally denounced this manner of highway flirting. He presumed that those other automobiists thought he might be fair damsel with whom they might strike up an acquaintance by winking their lights at her.
 But, being a person of some com mon sense, he finally decided that every drivtr he met could not be of this frivolous nature; that there must be something behind it all. He had never given a thought to his own | lights. They had continued to shine on brightly, binding others who ap- | which fact, of course, he l was beautifully ignorant. !,
 But now he did consider his lights. | Once he dimmed them as he ap- preached another car. The other cars lights were dimmed too. He enjoyed he pleasure Of driving past that car without the winking process. And hen it all dawned upon him. He ihould dim his lights when approach ng other cars. He did. He profted-- ind all the way home he smiled at himself for his ignorance. That is all bout lights on the highway where here are few houses and few lights y the roadside. !.

THE RAILROAD PROBLEM

When the storrow plan was pre-
 sented 10 solve the railroad problem
 in New England, there was not exact
 ly enthusiastic approval by all the
 people. the individuals, because of the
 thought that abatement of railroad
 tax if necessary at times which was n
 feature Of the plan. would add to the
 tax burden Of the people Of the state. This feature of the plan of rehabilita- ton we have opposed. But 1t was realized by those who studied the mat ter more closely, that the storrow plan contemplated the settlement by New England Of New England problem --and New Englanders have a way of wanting to manage their own efforts,
 Yesterday the interstate commerce commission conducted a hearing on the matter In Boston. It appears that some sort of consolidation will be favored by the commission in its re- port. There will be advocated either a consolidation of the New England lines with the exception of the Bos- ton and Albany, the Central Vermont and the New England lines of the Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific. or consolidation of the New England railroads. including the New Haven in the affairs of which Connecticut is | especially interested with trunk lines. As between the two forms of consoli- | dation. if consolidation there must be. the people of Connecticut favor the Storrow plan with certain modiica- tions giving the settling of this New England problem Into New England peoples hands.
 The end is not yet. The hearings will last four or five days more, but at present it would seem that the better arrangement would be to allow New England men and brains, with the backing of all the people who, incl dentally have some manliness and wis dom even if they are not in the rail- road business, to keep on taking care of their own affairs. And the Storrow plan, with some notifications, seems to be the best of any proposed to the Interstate commission as yet

LOCATION OF MEMORIAL

The matter of the location of tho
 proposed memorial to be erected ir
 memory of those from New Britain
 who died in the World War is re.
 ferred to at this time because it is
 one in which every person in this city should take an interest and should express his or her opinion. In connection with such expression of opinion there should be taken into consideration the letter published in this newspaper last Saturday, written by an expert in such matters. arguing in favor of certain site. This letter is of value, not because 1t should de- termine the location of the memorial, but because it gives reasons why the writer believes some sites should not be chosen. Opinions will differ on this matter, some will agree with the writer of that letter. others will dis agree from his conclusion The im- portant point is to consider the mat ter from practical as well as senti- mental viewpoint
 To suggest that those having decided opinions write brief letters to George H. Dyson, Chairman of the New Britain War Memorial Committee, may involve considerable labor on the part of the committee in reading and judging public sentiment from such letters, but it would seem to be the best way of getting the peoples judgement on the matter--and the peoples judgment is to be consulted above all things.
 Every man and woman should ask himself or herself where he or she would like to have that memorial, if possible. The highest point in Wal | nut Hill park, just north of the pool, | has been suggested It is favored for | practical and other reasons by the sculptor who is interested. The pres- ent location of the temporary arch has . been suggested. as there have been other suggestions The reason for opposing these cites, if any there arc, should be aired before decision is reached. A public gathering which all the people should attend might be held. The point is that in this mat ter which means so much to many of us there should be no mistake made. The memorial, when it is finished, should have no atmosphere other than one which will give splendid inspirs- ton to US, our children and our chill dren's children and, more important 5till, one which will give everlasting 1zaor to those who 6ied.
