Is no novelty-it has said several nice
things about Representatives Christ

startling fact warrants tho reprinting
OF an editorial which appeared yes

"a prophet IL not without
honor, save In his own country

the alleged independent New
Britain Herald" laboring TO belit-
tie the legislative records OF Rep
resentatiyes Christ and Aling of
New Britain. while along comes
the reliable "Middletown Press
naming Mr. Christ at the head of
a list OF legislators whose iudg-
ment during the session Just clos
ed marked them as leaders.
While the Herald" was scold-
ing its representatives for not
grabbing patronage for New Brit
ain, and was encouraging its
readers to violate state law, Mr..
Christ and Mr.. Alling. being men
of broad vision, were looking out
for the interests of the state at
large. The former as House
chairman of the important finance
committee shared with Senate
Chairman Trumbull the RESPONSE
bility for projecting financial
policy which would bring relief to
-burdened taxpayers, and
they succeeded in reducing the
state tax by half million dollars.
which will mean more to property
owners of New Britain and other
municipalities. than the fact that
one of their townsmen was ap-
pointed to some political office.
To list all the general legisla-
ton on which Mr.. Christ of the
finance committee and Mr.. Alling
of the judiciary committee left
their mark would take twice the
space devoted by their unappre-
ciative hometown paper to criti-
cism of them If all mem
bers of the Legislature followed
the selfish idea of the HERALD"
and came to Hartford merely TO
get theirs for the folks back
home, the state would be in a
sorry plight. Alling and Christ Of
New Britain stood among the
hard -headed men Of the house,
and the success OF Mr.. Christ,
like that Of Mr.. Keith Of Putnam,
was all the more noticeable be-
cause 1t was his first experience

tee. Their constituents have rea-

plishments in the session.

would take ''all the kings horses
and all the kings men" to gain
entrance for newspaper reporter.
But ! knew it would be next to ln-'
possible to get him to sit still long
enough for an interview on amy of
the other six days. Every minute OF
his time is crowded with duties s.
every ounce Of energy lent to trying
to meet the thousands Of demands
upon his time. So I decided to take
advantage Of my position as his wife
and called him into the library. He,

CoLOMoN, who stands as the

that one thing he could not un-
derStand was snakes, and the
mystery still remains-especially as
regards these serpents in Ireland
thereby enhancing Solomon's claim on
paramount sapience. For science and
tradition. natural history and legend
are, after centuries, still in contro-
versy over whether St Patrick actu-
ally did drive the snakes out of Ire

from father to son, grandson and

than thirty-nve years. lie has studied
snakes in various parts of the world
and has been a large contributor to
the sum total Of human knowledge
about snakes. one Of his most noted
works being on the herpatology Of
Japan and adjacent territory.
DR.. Stejneger states positively that
"snakex never were indigenous to
Ireland" His attention has just been
called to a published article which
quoted him as saying the had caught
some snakes in Ireland that ST. Pat
rick missed and had brought them
home in bottles. Denying this most
eInrhaticaliy. DR.. Stejneger said:
1T have never been ashore in Ire
