MONKEYS PROVIDING.

Proposed Law Would Prohibit
 Them With Organ Grinders

Hartford, Feh, s.-A question ber for the legislative committee on the
 judiciary isl
 sWhat shall We do about the men' keysg"
 The committee members take the matter seriously hut they are not eeT- tain that a favorable report on senate bill No, il7 would De taken, other than humoFously,
 The bill would stop the use of monkeys with hand organs, and the sale ef ehameleons by street vendors, The bin was offered as humane measure in behalf Of pr, W, T, Horn aday of Stamford, director Of the goo at Bronx park, He spoke in behalf or it and told the committee thal monkeys used by organ grinders come from the tropical forests of South America and are without biting teeth, They usually bring siO in New York and invariably die of tuberculosis,
 Dr, Hornaday said that the monkey has feet as tender as the feet and hands Of n human being, On the hot pa,ements in summer they blister while the organ grinder protects his by heavy shoes. The animals agony is usually covered by fear of its own CT who has probably at some time beaten it into submission to orders, Most of the monkeys carry heavy chains. often more than their own weight, and when q monkey climbs n porch or to window to get pennies 1t frequently uses ono hand 10 re- lieve the weight Of tho chain on its neck.
 Mir. Hornaday said that if connecti- cut would adopt law on monkeys it would be a means of stopping cruelty to many small animals used for com mercial purposes
 As to chameleons, Mir. Hornaday said they invariably die of starvation. The chameleon lives on live flies and drinks water only in minute drop. and always with its head upwards. People who buy the reptiles usually place raw meat and dish of water before them. In zoos water is sprayed on a ceiling. and the chameleon runs over this and drinks from the tiny gobules which are hanging. Live flies are placed in the cages and these the chameleon catches and eats.
 Although the bill calls for pro- hibition of the use of dancing bear. and parakeets with hand organs. there is little actual cruelty with these.

SYSTEM OF GAS
TAX COLLECTION
Auditor Hopes RefinerS viii
Simplify Task by Pay
ing Levy,

Robert Bracken, auditor Of State,
was making preliminary plans today
to collect the 2-cent gasoline tax,
effective June /.
The auditor is receiving information
from other States as to the system
used. He said he believed the collec-
ton of the tax would be comparative
ly simple.
Il see no reason why the refining
companies would not be willing to pay
the tax and put it on their bills to
the dealers" he said. IF this can be
arranged, it Will not take big or
ganization nor cost much money to
make the collections"
In case wholesalers do not pay the
tax voluntarily, the law provides IT
must be collected from retailers.
Bracken said one Of his greatest
concerns was as to rebates. The law
provides the taxes shall be rebated to
persons who buy gasoline other than
for use in vehicles. They must obtain
invoices showing the gasoline was
purchased and turn them over to the
auditor TO obtain rebates. Investica-
ton has shown that in other States
having a similar provision few rebates
are asked

February, according to w. II. Hersh-

are more interesting to the average
person than legislative sessions.

last month was unusually large due
to daily visits of school children.
Offices in the StatehOuse vacated
during the Legislature, and others
where the forces "double-up," are

And have cut your finger
And lost your temper
And called Friend Husband
And he has done likewise
Read this:
1t was all unnecessary.
This, being National Canned Food
week, is an appropriate time to tell
worried young wives, and old ones,
too, how to open a can without all
the fuss and worry.
First. remove the label from the
side of the can, until you can see the
seam. Then lay the can on its side
Puncture it next to the seam with the
point Of the can opener, and next to
the top of the can.
Stand the can upright once more.
Insert the can opener in the hole
made in the side. Work from the
seam until you have cut around the
can.
Then turn back the entire top Of
the can
And don't lose your temper any
more.
