DISABLED VETERANS

This is the week We are all going to do our bit toward making that camp al Mantle for the disabled vet erans Of the war big success, and ain boys who were hurt in the war can go there feeling that we have done our share for them and for the other disabled former fighters in the state, We are not going to pass that tent on Central Park without giving something for this purpose and we are going to give, if we have not already done so, because we really want to give-and that is tho sort of giving worth while, Then, this summer, when we get our own vacation, We are going 10 enjoy that rest all the more because we will be able to feel that we have helped those disabled friends of ours have a pleasant. restful sort Of time at the camp with all their buddies from this state.
 We who are strong and healthy would not like to think that every day this summer is going 10 be like if is todas-sort of gray and cool and dismal 'outside--and inc summer is not going 10 be like that. The sun shine will come to warm us, and the pleasant evenings to refresh. But many Of the boys who will go to the camp have a lot of gray dismal days ahead Of them, whether the sun shines or not; whether tho evenings arc pleasant or dismal We are going to do just little bit 10 make the days of the sumner less gray for them; the sunshine more bright And we arc eager to do this--that is what VIC want those boys to know.

on the suggestion since it was first
 made.
 The proposal to extend the North End line from Francis street on to Wells. so that it would run in front
 of the new Normal school, however
 does not seem 10 he wholly dc8ira bic although it's practical. advantages might outweigh the objections seen from an artistic standpoint. Trolley tracks running in front Of that hac,
 now building, would in measure
 spoil it's b auty. Cars standing near
 it's entrance would take away bit Of
 the attrdctiveness of the approach 10 the really noble Structure. The obiec-
 ton that the noise from the trollcys would disturb the stuucnts may not be worth considering as the school is set SO far back this noise would he necli- gib}e. ..-
 As that building stands now, with the fine strcein front of il, not mar red by trolley tracks or smaller build ,ings to take away from the effect Of tho whole view. it might be character- ized as inspiring. Hc-,dily may it he conceived that students at the school would get Il new inspiration with each approach 10 il, and those who are planning to devote some years of their lives to teaching arc apt to be suscepti- ble 10 the character of their surround mGs. When one imagincs that view altered by the laying of trolley tracks or the erection of a waiting station directly in front of the new school, the prospect does not please.
 But while discussing trolley matters the situation at the other side of the city should be considered. For a good many years the residents of the Jerome street section have been wait i ing for some arrangement in regard ! to transportation that would enable . them to get 10 the center without l walking a mile or so to the trolley at | the bridge just beyond Black Rock . avenut Before the Connecticut com ! pany goes to the expense of extending ' its North End line to run past the ] Normal. or 10 erect a waiting station there, ii might be better for it to pro- vide jitney transportation for those who purchased property in the Jerome street district relying upon the com pany to furnish the sort Of transporta- ton so badly needed there.

able to bear it. as expressed by one critic.
 For the average man. looking d- rectIy at his own interests, there is some good news in the provision of the senate bill, for instance, that makes the tax on incomes of S4,00O and under, per cent instead of per cent as at present and in the pro- vision making the surtax of per cent starting at SlO,000 and graduating up to 4o per cent, instead Of, as at pres rnt, starting at sG.00O.
 II is insisted that President Coolidge would have real issue were he to stick to the Mellon plan which seems to have lost practically all strength in both houses and senate. His veto or the bill that will come out of confcr- rnce would indicate this intention on his part. But there is still a possibili- ty that the bill when it goes to him will be in the form of some com promise that will make real the dream of immediate tax reduction the people have enjoyed.

RECOGNIZING AITHoRITy

It is not entirely with reference 10 the enforcement of the school com mittee's rule regarding keeping unvac- cinated children out Of school that reference is made here to authority" It is rather with the broader general rule which demands that there must he some supervising body with power 10 make rules which must be obcyed in emergency as we'll as at other times. which is here discuascd. The moment ths authority Of this body is undermined there comes a danger Of mob rule" which is no rule al all.
 No Institution, from the national government down. could be success fully managed without a head or a duly Authorized body 10 make rules and regulations and power to sec that they uere enforced. 1T anyone were at liberty 10 disobey those rules and regulations. they would be worthless, of course. and the welfare of all the people would be al ihe mercy of the whim of any individual. This would create state CT chaos in which no rights would bc safe Liberty de- nsnds law 10 enforce if.

MAJOR MARTIN SAFE

The gloom of the day is dispelled somewhat by the news that comes of the safety of Major Martin, command ,r of the world flight, and his me- chanician, Sergeant Harvey, To re- markabc extent their welfare had be- come personal concern to the people who feared yet hoped. The news ac- counts of their week of struggle over wild lands, half blinded by the ele- ments, their courage under tre- mendous handicaps following the ac- cident to their plane, display a fine spirit which might have been expect ed of them.
 We are profoundly thankful that they are safe and we trust that, if they continue their flight as seems likely. they will be able to forget the trying experience in the splendid satisfaction that will come, when their long jour- ncy is completed. It has always been through backs such as this that the lessons making for greater achievement have been learned. Not only will they themselves be the gain CTS in wisdom and experience but their comrades on this important adventure will be able 10 accomplish more through added knowledge gained Of the need Of utmost care always and of courage when care proves unavail- ing.

THE MARBLE TOURNEY

A lot Of people who were old
 enough to vote many years ago. often
 wish they were younger. Just about
 now, however there are many who
 wish they were "goin' on f5." They
 would like 10 be eligible for that mar
 hlc tournament the Herald and the
 Junior Achievement Foundation folks
 are running. For this emphasizing
 the importance of the game of mar
 bcs means more than recognizing T
 mighty interesting game--and it
 means moro, too, than a chance for
 the winner 10 20 to Atlantic City for 2 whole week and meet other boys and
 girls from all over the country
 or course, if we were "goin' on IS" Wo would probably be thinking mainly about that trip and about the nno swims we could have down at Atlantic City, and an the new things and peo- plc we would see there. We wouldn't be bothering with what the old folks call the deeper significance" of con. tcst like this. But that's what the older people arc doing. They arc thinking Of tho days when they, too, played marbles and how, about that time. they were planning 10 become president Of tho United states or fore man in the factory father worked in or perhaps the boss of the whole thing. and tho older women who re- member Inc days when they played marbles. are thinking as they read about tho marble tournament, that when thoy were "goin' on IS" they had big hopes for tho future. II makes all inc older folks a little bit sad 10 look back at those days and then realize how they haven't become pres idcnt or how their plans didn't work out just as they had dreamed they would. Perhaps some Of them feel il was their own fault: perhaps some feol that hard luck. or misfortune or illness or something rlsa they couldn't help. prevented their dreams frosl coming true.
 And inc young people who arc go- ing 10 play in that tournament might mnk just minute today-the last iav they can cut oat an entry blank and give # to Bil squircz or leave it ai the Herald on1ce-thcs might stop 3 minute today and look ahead and make up their minds that theyIl fry . mighty hard not only 10 win that big marble tournament. but win all the .
