MOTOR RTSSES TO HARTFORD
 AND THE RATES

Announcement by the Connecticut company today of the Inauguration Of a motor bus service between New Britain and Hartford, to supplement ths trolley service, is about as was anticipated.
 Although private bus line offer ed to provide transportation for 25 cents. whereas the Connecticut com pany proposes to charge B 1-3 cents with tokens from the center, the Connecticut company claims its transfer privileges makes it's service more valuable. The proportion of persons who take advantage of the transfer privilege, however is slight and the use of the transfer privilege as lever for high rates is wrong in principle; those wishing transfers would be glad to pay for them if they were transported between the two cities at lower rate.
 The fare that the Connecticut com pany proposes to charge-fou1 tokens between the two cities--is 100 high, and the Public Utilities commission is to be condemned fol permitting such rate,

not 100 percent prosperous yet not seriously in the other direction con stdering the country as n whole. During part of the year there was unemployment in somo fields, es- pecially textiles anu certain other industries; but on the whole uncm- ployment was not great, taking the nation as a whole, during q period that many regarded as dcpros- sion. Some cities did not suffer from unemployment at alh while others were hard hit and have still barely recovered.
 The new baby year will he greet cd with the acclaim that comes 10 d newcomer or much promise, In all probability 1t will be an un- eycntfui year from the standpoint ol untoward events, except those events that mark tho progress of mankind toward that goal Of com. p'nte understanding and universal happiness whicn, it Is hoped. will be the ultimate attainment of civi- Iizaton. that millennium which is still far distant but to the attain mcut of which 1925 should prove q stepping stone,

ANOTHER OCEAN RENCJE l.
 DUE TO RADIO

Rescue of 1S2 passengers anu crew of a Japanese steamer ln the Pacific ocean off the coast of Mex leo. by an American 1rcightcr, was another victory for radio. The fate fuI $ c g. signal was heard by the hig freighter Julia Luckenbach and the vessel promptly turned about and reached the scene of the burn ing ship,
 Such marvels are continually oc- curing in our day, Every vessel mon the seas equipped with radio is In constant touch with every other vessel similarly equipped, although thew may be miles apart and out o' cach others sight In the old days such g mishap would have taken a more stsagreeable course and the messengers and crew, on the saas ln onen boats, would have been force4 to float about until seen by some nassing ship, or they may nave hoen left to starvc upon the ocean s blue if no ship happened to ap- near upon the horizon

NEW ARNIS CONFERENCE
 DEEMED LIKELY

The news that President Coolidge IS fayorably disposed toward an- other international arms conference to he held in 1925 Is in line with his views enunciatcd upon previous occasions, notably in his message to congress.
 That such a conference will be called in 1925 Is quite certain, as both the League of Nations and the American government are It's pro- ponents. If the League fails to is- sue the call, then the President no doubt will deem the time "propl- ttous" az he terms it, The President has no desire to issue such a call if the League acts in that direction.
 The net result is that if the League acts, the President will not do so; but If the League prefers to let the American government take the initiative. it will be so taken.
 This being the case the confer ence very likely will eventuate in due course.

MAKE THAT RESOLUTION
 STICK

Tomorrow IS the Day of Good Resolutjons-the easiest thing in the world to make but the hardest to keep.
 Ii you run true 10 form or in con- formity with the predilections of the human race generally, you will se- lect your six worst faults and make gaudy resolutions to eliminate them from your future dealings with man. kind.
 You may have more than six bad faults; but it is best not to take on too much of a load upon any one Good Resolution day, leaving some Of the faults for other years,
 Although so far we have tackled the subject in a light spirit, this mat ter of making good resolutions on New Years day is no light matter in the estimation of most folk, A good resolution should be taken seri- ously, else it is no longer good, but becomes rather bad, or an incubus upon the well being of the individ- ual making it.
 There is a saving that the world is paved with good resolutions and it must be remembered that for every good resolution broken there is a disappointed individual.
 Here's the thing to ponder; If resolution is worth making at all or New Years day it is worth keeping Otherwise it is better 0 refrain iron making a false start in the right di roction but turning back for iocj Of will power.

3,lOO SCIENTISTS
 AT WHITE HOUSE
Attend Mid.Day SessiOn-.lm.
 portant Gatherings

Washington, Dec. 3l 3l.-Recoption by President Coolidge at the White House of delegates to the convention of the American Association for the Advancement of Science provided a mid day interlude for todSy's pro- gram of further presentation of papers and discussion of the latest scientific achievements. A member ship registration at the present meeting of 3,100 indicated one of the largest convention groups ever received at the White House.
 Subjects treated in the scores of papers prepared for today's. meet ings of the 15 sections of the asso- clation ranged from improved cop- per for electricity conduction to hiccup bacteria.
 A paper by W. P. Davey of the re- search laboratory of the General Electric company, told of the pro- iduction of a new form of copper that conducts electricity with IS per cent more efficiency than ordinary copper.
 Although merely copper of stan- dard purity, the metal is cast in the new process. 1t was said. as a single crystal, half an inch thick and six inches long, These are produced in cylindrical molds, and the greater conductive efficiency was measured by comparison after the metal was subsequently drawn and pounded to change 1t into the common form of 1 small crystals. Production of the new form of copper on q commer- cial scale has not yet been under taken, Dr. Darey said.
 Discovery of Bacteria that appears to be responsible for the present epidemic of hiccoughs was reported in paper prepared for the medical sciences section by Dr. Edward C. Kosonow of the Mayo Foundation al Rochester, Minn. The bacteria are of the sort known as streptococc and produced hlccoughs when in' jected into the brains of animals.

Travel

Before railroads was invented people had to travel on horseback and it took them twice as long 10 20 half as far. but on the other hand they had times more fun and horses don't have cindcrs.
 Enybody can ride on a train inc ferst time they try and look natural but if you never rode on horse be- fore, that's different
 Travel is good for the education. You see diffrent people In dlhreht countries wearing diffrent clothes and not even knowing they look funny, and speaking langwidges you never herd before jest as easy as if they thawt they was ta"kinS Inglish.
 It is ixpensivc to travel, and eny- ways lots of people would jest as leaf stay home and take a Wawk' You can also save hundreds of dol- lcrs by recding the forrin news Tn the paper.
 If you never travel youIl never get drownded at sea, but on the other hand a brick will never fall on your he'd on boat.
