 day to his commander-in-ch chief. Post

A handsome reward as well as special commendation of his bravery 1 has been awarded the young mail clerk, and President Coolidge ar- ranged his program today to permit him to congratulate the youth per- sona!ly and hear his story.
 Ste 's act has won expressions of admiration from the entire postal service as well as that of many in- Gividuals throughout the country. He was sent to Atlantic City to recuperate from his wounds with funds con- tributed by numerous postal employees, and special extension of his leave of absence has been granted by the postmaster general to permit his re- covery, delayed by the frai condi- ton of his health, which, six months before the attempted robbery, had caused his transfer from the service in New York to East Orange.

Two men swung off the train as it pulled out, Stack said he was suspicious and reached for his pistol.

Stacks aim was true and one bandit fell. The other escaped in an automobile.
 In the presence of his official fam that the army and navy decorated their men for conspicuous acts of bravery but the post office department had no way of doing that other than to place in an employees record cita- tion for such acts. He handed Stack a check for s2,Ooo, saying that was the limit which congress had provided for such rewards General New read to Stack the citation which recorded conspicuous loyalty to the service at the peril of his life.

 Parking Without Lights
 Parking without lights along the side of tine roads in Berlin has been brought to the attention of the Der lin police and they today issued warning to any Lochinvars so inclin- ed that they will be dealt with severe- ly if caught. The police say it's one thing to park along the road and still another to park without lights. The first is all right, but when it comes to the second, where the lives of people in othef automobiles might be en- dangered, it is time to put stop to the practice, and put a stop to 1t the police will, as far as it is in their power.

Mir Wilcox is prominent republican, having taken a keen inter- est in politics since his arrival in town over 25 years ago. He has never held office in town. but he is being boomed by his neiehbors in the Blue Hills dis | trict as possible candidate for the i position and will probably poll a large l number of votes from the town.
