THE SWIMMING POOL

It was evident last night at the
 meeting held to discuss the proposed
 swimming pool in the North End
 park, that there is strong opposition
 to it among the residents of that sec
 ton. This it would seem, should settle
 the matter. There should be no swim
 ming pool located in a section which
 has grown so rapidly, to which people
 have focked, in which they have
 bought or built homes expecting that such locality would remain as it is except for natural, usual growth there should be no swimming pool there if those people object to it. Those who discuss the matter without knowing from personal experience. or from information obtained from those who do know from personal CXpcri- ence tho practical facts in the matter, arc not in a position to judge fairly. The residents of the North End are the ones chiefly concerned. Their words should have the greatest weight. Mayor Paonessa is too fair minded a man to refuse to bow to their wishes once those wishes arc known
 But this does not eliminate from consideration the idea of the swim ming pool. People who arc able to remember the joys the swimming places of their youth brought to them, arc eager to have such q place provid- cd for the young people especially. X thorough canvass of possible locations for such pool should be made, and it is to be hoped earnestly that proper place may be found which wonld not offend those living in the locality and which would make it pos sible for tho people of New Britain who are held to the city through the long, hot months, to have this form of recreation Various centrally To- cated places have been suggested, where homes do not abound. We do not want to seem 10 favor any special locality. having made no canvass Of the situation. But we do hope carn- nstly that the swimming pool project will not be abandoned, just as We hope that the wishes Of the people of no locality will be slightcd when and | if such a location for the pool is l Iouad.

Belgium Has Own Plan
 For Making Germany Pay

Paris, May 29.--Bclgium's plan to make Germany pay according to I.e Matin. suggests the formation in the Reich of monopolies in such com- modities as alcohol. sugar and tobac- co, together with the exploitation of the railroads and state property. The proposed monopolies would be man. aged by international syndicates on which the allies would be well repre- sented. The newspaper says Premier Theunis estimates that this plan would furnish q minimum of 2,400,- GOO, 900 gold marks annually.

Comments Chief Hart.

New Britain, May 29, 1923. Editor of Herald
 Dear Sir:--
 l would like to express through the Herald my appreciation of the stand which Chief Hart has taken in regard to Sunday dancing. We ought all to be thankful for any influence that will keep our Sabbath from becoming like every other day. Dr. Hillis. one of our greatest preachers. says that the American Sabbath ought to be upheld and I am sure all who have our countrys best interests at heart feel the same way
 Those people who are not satisfied with band concerts and other quiet enjoyments on Sunday ought to de- part to other lands where there are no restrictions.

EVENT OF SEASON
Musical Comedy to Open
Monday at EngIiSh'S,

A brilliant event in the new sea
son at English's occurs on Monday
night. when Florenz ziegfeld brings

Follies and its own imperative road
contracts, the charm OF sally" proved
so enduring that this revival could
have extended through the entire
present season.
Ziegfeld has accomplished the al
most impossible in keeping intact the
original cast since 1920, with but two
changes. Irving Fisher has been re-
placed by Paul FTawley, recently here
in THE Music Box Revue" who re-

lure living out of the passerby as
now in America. 1t never was SO easy
to do as did the old Grub st. writer's
live by writing things Of temporary
nature. Fortunately. nobody can tell
when he is writing it, if he is doing
his best, whether what he is doing Is
thing Of permanent value or not;
for what is a test Of permanency?
There is no contemporaneous test.
Probably none of us has ever done
anything that will live. There is this
truth, however, which may or may
not comfort one-it will live if 1t de-
serves to live. But it never was so
easy to subsist as now by writing
things which every one can see are
ephemeral.
1--WE are needy writers in the sense
that we need the divine afflatus and
inspiration which you may have heard
mentioned from time to time. The
old Grub ST. boys needed money and
food and raiment, but they had also
this need from which we suffer, and
without which our output cannot be
great, save in volume. Not that we
ought to be ashamed to cater to the
multitude.

Concerning
Nora Bayes

It is a pity that Nora Bayes ever
consented to appear on a concert"
tour. The public has the right to ex-
pect something when the door charge
is so cents TO $3.50 a seat. Miss
Bayes is an artist of song and her
individual work is satisfying. Her
tour is under the direction of Fulcher
and Bohan Of New York and not by
the Shuberts.
Vaudeville patrons expect and re-
ceive q whole lot for 40 cents up to
dollar If the entire show dished
up and presented by Nora Bayes at
the Murat Friday afternoon and a
company announced as artists" is
worth $3.50 top, then Galh-Curci would
not be wrong at $40 top Sunday after
neon.
l am not finding fault with Miss
Bayes and her work, but 1 do protest
the nerve it takes TO hand out such
entertainment as. given by the dane
ers, and Lyman Meyer. In a dance,
a woman attempted to be classical by
exposing her legs. Bare legs may be
art if the dancer is an artist in her
very soul. but this woman only pa
raded. This dancer did not use an
appropriate set or even lights of
proper shade to aid in presenting her
dance. The Imperial Trio was far
from being a sensation. Roxy Larocca
played the harp and induced the au-
dience to whistle. Anything TO let
off steam.
1 appreciate the artistry Of Miss
Beyes and the audience enjoyed her
work, applause being proof of this.
Miss Bayes is out Of her element in
concert when she drags over the coun-

o'clock train for New York. His abb
is perfect; he knows nothing about
the murder. The alibi Of the men on
the truck also is perfect. They did
not reach Saratoga until noon on the
day after Sykes death. They dealt
only with one man."
Zone man?' 1 echoed. "Who?"
He watched my face for a moment
then replied simply, "Briffeur"
had half expected that answer. It
made the chauffeur's story that Slyke
owed him money seem reasonable. 1t
even limited that the chauffeur had
tried to blackmail Slyke, and made
Blacks theory that Briffeur had
killed Slyke seem not unreasonable.
1.-THE men on the truck" BARLEY
continued, "did not know Briffeur's
name; but their description Of the
man who unlocked the door Of the
vault for them fitted Briffeur."
But" 1 ventured.
But what?" he countered.
"That connects Slyke and Briffeur."
He was silent for a moment, his
face grave. Then he said slowly,
Eyes, Pelt, it does. If the chauffeur
had not been killed himself, he would
be suspected of causing Sykes death.
But there is one thing"
"And what Is that?" 1 asked.
"Briffeur said some one else was
implicated in that robbery. What 1
want to know is, who was that other
man." He paused, then added:
There is no doubt, Pelt, that Slyke
had been selling whisky for some
time. Where he got 1t, and who was
in on 1t with him, we don't know.
Maybe tonight we can find out"
Currie's voice called from below
that the car was waiting to take us
to Sykes house, and we rose. AS I
started for the door, BartleJ handed
me a package and gave me a playful
shove.
Don't drop Them" he laughed.
1 gave him disguised look. "But
these are the states"
$50 they are, but they may talk for
us tonight"
And with that absurd suggestion in
my ears, went down the stairs to
join Currie.
