Spoken From the Heart Out


In an effort to link practice with
preaching, the Sunday school teacher
asked her class of small boys to recite
appropriate quotations from the Scrip
lures as they added their free will
offerings to the regular collection.
The youngsters had week in which
to find and memorize suitable texts.
On the following Sunday the teacher
summoned the superintendent in order
that he might witness the ceremony
Under his approving eye the schol-
ars advanced, one by one, each with
a coin ready and his brow furrowed
by the effort Of trying to remember
the quotation he meant to deliver.
First, as was fitting, came the brag
pupil and, AS he deposited dime in
the plate, he said:
.'Thc Lord loveth cheerful giver"
Beautiful" said the teacher APP
provingly. Nov then, Harry what
are you going to say?"
"The liberal soul shall be made fat"
"Willie?"
Whose giveth to the poor, lendeth
to the Lord
"Bobby?'
Freely thou hast received, freely
give"
Every good, indeed. Tommy, it's
your turn next"
Tommy's hand came slowly forth
from his pocket, bringing penny.
"a fool and his money are soon
parted" said Tommy.

Prompt Payment

Sometimes we pay for our mistakes
on the spot, as in the case of that
North Carolina man who mistook a
wildcat for coon.

A LINE o. CHEER
BY John Kendrick Bangs.

A SMILING SUFFERER

I've got the blues today
i I've caught them from the
skies,
And from the twinkle gay
Of little children's eyes;
And from a violet shy
That spite of winters cold
Dared most courageously
It's beauties to unfold
Blues of a floral sxs.d
That drive away my fear,
And fill heart, soul, and mind
With wealth of azure cheer.

S7 YEARS OLD TOMORROW
Mrs James Shepard Is Thref Weeks Younger Than Husband-Has Liv- ed 4s Years in Same Home.

Mrs. Cecelia A. Shepard, wife ot James Shepard Of 1Ss Lake street, is receiving the congratulations and best wishes of her friends and rela- lives upon the occasion of her S7th birthday anniversary which occurs tomorrow. Mrs. Shepard is but three weeks younger than her husband. The latter is known as an authority on New Britain history and fre- uuent contributor to the Herald.
 Because Of the fact that neither she nor her husband are feeling well, due to some extent 10 the terrific heat of last week, Mrs. Shepard plans no birthday celebration.
 Mrs Shepard was born in Brissol btu has lived in New Britain for al- most a half century, She can trace her ancestry back to the early French nobility to the time when her ancestors owned and resided in Chateau Gaillard in Normandy. Both of her grandfathers were born in France and both of her grand mothers were natives of England.
 She was married to James Shep- ard, when the latter resided in southington, the ceremony taking place at Plymouth, Mass. For 49 years Mir. and Mrs. Shepard have lived in their home at 15s Lake street. An interesting thing about this property, according to Mrs. Shepard is that the grounds upon which the Shepards later built their home, marked the site of the first showing of the original Barnum and Bailey circus in New Britain. Dur that time an elephant took sick and. died here, and the body was buried on the grounds.

YAVY DRILL BASE
 ON LAHAINA ISLE
Admiral CoOntZ'S Visit Believed to Indicate Such Action

Honolulu T. H, June s. tP-Ru- mors that the fleet command hopes 10 establish at Lahaina Roadstead a secondary base for extensive man. euvers gained strength today after a visit by Admiral Coontz, mem Der of his staff, and Governor Far rlngton of the Hawaiian Islands aboard the cruiser Marblehead to the Island of Maui.
 Although naval men decline to discuss the, subject. it is known that the high command looks on Lahaina as the most favorable drill ground available to the United States fleet at present It is pointed out that with the fleet anchored in Lahaina Roads the admiral of the fleet has practically the entire Pacific ocean available for maneuvers after once passing the end of Lanai island.
 The disadvantages of Lahaina as an anchorage for more extensive eX- ercises, as pointed out, include the fact that the fleet must steam 2.100 miles or more to reach Maui. Also recreation and entertainment facin- ties for the enlisted men are limited. However it was pointed out that the navy could with an expenditure of S100,o00 or less construct baseball, Basketball and tennis accommoda- tions sufficient to take care of the entire fleet personnel which comes ashore each day. l. was also pointed out that en route 10 Hawaii the fleet could be put through maneuvers which would provide invslua ble training 10 division commanders and men. These two considerations h the opinion Of naval men outweigh the disadvantages of Lahaina as a maneuver base.
 While Admiral Coontz remains silent as to the results of the recent maneuvers, it is known unofficially that the exercises in Hawaiian waters were gratifying and are con- sidered q justification of Americas policy of splitting the fleet during most of the year and bringing it to- gether for maneuvers during three months of each year, 3 policy which vas ridiculed by foreign strategists vhen it was originally proposed
