ITALY FAVORS AUTOS.
Old Opposition Dwindling and
Heavy Taxes May Be Cut.

Tt has been the policy Of the Italian
government to discourage the use. OF
automobiles by the imposition OF ex-
ceptionally heavy taxes on the theory
that the automobile should be con-
sidered distinctly q luxury. while the
gasoline which has to be imported
served to increase Italy's adverse
trade balance.
The new ministry, says Commercial
Attache II. c. MacLean In a report to
the Department Of Commerce, has
come to a different conclusion and
believes that the use of automobiles
should be encouraged. 1t is believed
that increased revenues can be de-
rived by collecting a smaller tax on a
larger number of cars and by fncreas-
ing the quantity of gasoline con-
sumed. on which a tax is also col
lected. A reduction is likely. to be
made soon in the existing tax on au-
tomobiIes and also possibly on that
on gasoline, while an increase may be
made in the tax on bicycles. There
are something like 1.250.000 bicycles
in use in Italy, so that even a small
increase would yield a very consid-

After these operations apply color

HIGHEST POINT IN PERFECTION
REACHED IN AUTOS THIS YEAR

1t is when automobile shows claim
public attention and the manufac-
turer's new products have been
studied and analyzed that it seems
the height of mechanical develop
mert, engineering achievements and
motoring luxury and comfort have
been reached. Likewise the influence
of the automobile on our living con-
ditions and industrial and CONNER
cial development ! seems to have
reached the furthest point In the mat
ter OF efficiency and complete ac-
ceptance. - - ~
But as each succeeding year rolls
round and we again visit the auto

upset, due to the continuous endeavor
on the part Of the manufacturers for

BOYS TO BE TAUGHT
 HOW TO SELL GOODS
Glass in Salemanship to Be
 Started by Supt. Cleveland

A course in salesmanship, with practical training on house to house canvass, at the same time tending to keep the house to house trade in the city, will be undertaken by the Boys club of New Britain within the next weeks, according to a statement made this afternoon by Superintendent c. B. Cleveland.
 The first course will open within a day or so and will consist of 10 boys, carefully selected as to personality and attitude, who will be given a series of talks on salesmanship by J. E. Wright, an expert salesman and crew manager.
 One week the boys will attend class and hear series of lectures, the next week they will be equipped with some staple and thoroughly investigated line and sent out to ring door bells.
 As soon as the first class can handle the job with satisfaction another class will be started. MT. Cleveland's plan is to handle such things as vacu-..n cleaners, etc. It is likely local fac tories will be asked to cooperate by placing their products in the hands of the boys.

tcgrates is dissolved by the rains and
 swept into the valley where 1t en-
 riches the fields, the death of the
 mineral thus becoming the life of the
 vegetable. Through the ages great
 stretches of forests have fallen and during the lapse of time given them
 selves to make coal by which we in
 these days are being warmed, The
 same principle holds in our social life,
 A ship goes down, having struck on a
 sunken reef, and many lives are lost
 Thereafter the reef is charted, a
 lighthouse erected on it, and lives
 saved, Liberty of thought, religious
 freedom, political freedom, have all
 been purchased in the same way.
 Rattlehelds have been soaked in hu-
 man blood; men have laid down their
 lives that those coming after might
 know these things, Everywhere is this principle working. Except a corn
 of wheat fall into the ground and die, 1t abideth alone. But If it die, it bringeth forth much fruit Likewise, in coming to human life and the soul, the principle works in precisely the same way. A boy or girl comes into disgrace and shame, but deep as the child feels it, the shame and disgrace are keener in the soul of the father and mother who brought the child into the world. Every day, in some way, men are being wounded for the transgressions of others and bruised for their iniquities, feeling in them- selves the awful shame to which those whom they may love or regard have come.
 Tt is in this way that we get a suggestion of what Jesus did. The love He knew for men was surpass- ingly fine and great-God's very own; and His pure stainless soul was smit- ten by the awful selfishness and cru city and wilfulness and avarice of men. And on the cross He suffered the last, most awful ignominy of mans sin and evil. The crucifixion of Jesus represents Gods constant pain and anguish caused by foolish and wicked world. The cross shows us how God suffers when we do evil hurt and deceive each other. Jesus suffered because He could not help it. as a parent cannot help suffering with a disgraced child.
 The horror of it is not the suffer- ing, but that you and I are causing it. It is not a matter of history but a very present reality. Everyday somewhere is the cross still set up and the crowds, in which you and I mingle. still stand and mock; and some there are who still throw dice at it's foot. When we catch the sense of how we outrage the Fathers trust and love, bruise His heart and go astray from His will, then shall we back in humble penitence. So Jesus shows us by His awful sufferings how we are hurting God, and so stirring our shame and contrition.
 God does not punish men. God loves men, and loves them no mat ter how far they stray; not the ninety and nine, but the one lost sheep measures Gods love. God does not 1 punish men. Men punish God by their stupid, ignorant, wilful living, | and Jesus Christ on the cross means the agony that men work upon God in punishing Him. Gods love in Jesus will not be satisfied until every | ast man and woman of us is touched 1 to the heart, answers that love, and comes to Him. Then shall we be | saved by Him who suffered under Pontius Pilate."

 Ex-Councilman Joseph Mlynarski had been mentioned as probable suc- cessor to Alderman Pajewski, provid- ed the latter did not run. It was mainly as the result of pressure brought to bear by the ex-council- man and his friends that Pajewski decided to enter the race for coun- cilman.
