Trenchers of Wood
! Often Works of Art

Wooden trenchers, commonly called
"treen" were in common use during the
Middle ages in Great Britain. "Masers"
or cups and bowls were frequently men
toned in wills and inventories. Tho
finer specimens belonged to the richer
abbeys-thus, there was the Great
Maser at York, the Judas Cup at Dur
ham, and at st. Savior's, Southwark,
there was "a maser with q bordour and
knop Of sylver and gilt which was
given to the church wardens to drink
when they mete." These valuable
wooden cups were sometimes orna-
mented by a rim of silver, but other
wise they were seldom decorated by
more than few low holdings or in
cised lines. Their value and beauty
lay in the granting of the wood, gen.
orally maple, and the old turner's
chose the part of the trunk where it
divided off into branches so as to OBJ
tain the speckled bird's-eye granting
By Tudor times pewter began to take
the place of treen. though poorer folk
continued to use these wooden trench
ers and bowls till much later, especial
~ in the north of England and in Scot
land.

The Marriage Problem

You can no more make yourself
keep on loving some one to order than
you can make yourself fall in or out
Of love with some one to order. It's
like asking small boy to light a
street lamp with only match. He
can't reach--the whole things beyond
him. That's the tragedy-the whole
relationship is dependent on some
thing that sails as airily remote above
your head as drifting cloud. To
base on that an irrevocable agree,
ment? It's simply asking for trou-
pie. It's like jumping into ten feet
Of water without knowing whether
you can swim or not, and then COM
planning because you're drowned
From 1.-THE Marriage-Craft," by D. FL
s. Nicholson.

Rev. MT. Phillips will begin his pastorate on September 1. He will continue his work with the lntercol- legiate Prohibition association until that date, as his contract calls for, but he will supply the pulpit in the kensington church on Sundays during the summer months.

 Sidewalks Take Rest
 The question of sidewalks in Ken sington, that subject which caused much comment among residents la st winter and the subject which contin- ued to cause comment this spring and will continBe. to cause comment until he desires of the populace are grati- fled, will have to take a new lease on life, with the installation of the new chairman of the Kensington fire dis trict.
 It is not known how Mir. Ellsworth the new chairman of the board, feels on the subject, but it is known that
 
 the board, was in favor of such ac- ton, but was unable to have anything done while he was in office.
 It is hoped by many residents that the new administration will not hesi- tate to carry along the work and to get something done as it is one which needs attention. Kensington's main thoroughfare has an appearance that could be greatly improved. It is, to say the least, not one that would lead visitors to think that the section of the town was booming.

 She spoke at the session of the Der lin Congregational church school Sum day and told the children something of the work being done.

 "Business is rather quiet, but we have considered no shutdown, except on July and 5," was the statement of an official at the American Paper Goods company today, thus dispeling rumor that the firm would shut down for time this summer, as sev- eral New Britain firms are doing.
 The company will run on full time all summer, and beyond the fact that it will close this weekend, no other closing is looked for Regular vaca- tions will be granted, but all depart ments will be on full time, a welcome announcement to the many Berlin people who depend on this company for their living.
 Must Omit Old Custom.
 One of Kensington's delightful old customs, that of ringing the bell of the Kensington Congregational church on the eve of July 4, will have to be passed over this year, according to word from the officials of the church. 1t was stated today that the timbers are too weak in the belfry to allow anyone to get up there and remain there without danger
 Boys, for many decades, have looked upon this custom as their own and each year has seen 8 group of them bound for the church as the hour approached midnight. Climbing to the belfry they would ring the bell for nearly an hour and then climb down and go to their homes, their work done.
 All this was done with more or less stealth. In fact, it was more or less of an adventure for the boys. They believed that if the church officials caught them at the work of ringing the bell things would go hard with them.
 However, the church fathers did not consider 1t in the light of something wicked, and allowed the boys to go about the work of ringing the bell, un- harmed.
 But this year the practice must be

 Enthusiastic Over Chautauqua
 The enthusiasm with which scores of workers and many committee members are entering upon the work of making successful the fourth an- nual Bristol Chautauqua gives great encouragement for the staging of one of the greatest successes that Bristol has yet achieved in Chautauqua work.
 This belief fin the great success in the Chautauqua to be started July II has been encouraged by the meet ing of members of the ticket com- mittee. stephen M. Wells, chairman of the ticket committee presided and with one or two of the officials of the local association, explained the work before the members and also re- ferred 10 the very fine program that is to feature this years week of Chautauqua.
 The plan of Chairman Wells is for a house-to-house canvass of the city by persons interested in Chautauqua who will make an effort to enlist the attendance of the largest number ever the Bristol Chautauqua.
 Mrs. James D. Foster is in charge of the sale of junior tickets and al- ready nearly 100 boys and girls of Bristol have planned to attend with a likelihood that this number will be at least double, if not trebled by the opening day. This will make the largest junior Chautauqua ever held in this city.
 Much interest centers around the election of the mayor and the vari- out officers and commissioners for Bristo's Juniortown government. D. Frank Crowley. Jr.. was mayor last year.
 The work among the juniors will be one of the big features of the week of Chautauqua in Bristol. Miss Dorothy Hannum is chairman of the
