NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Honest Work Brings Honest Wealth.
By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. d.

order to be clean It must be cleared
Of the waste, enriched with the
oxygen you get from deep breathing
Of pure air, and diluted by the free
drinking Of pure. fresh water.
Vigorous exercise makes you per-
spire, it makes you breathe deeply,
it makes you thirsty. 1t causes your
heart muscles and other muscles to
become better and stronger through
their rebuilding. So you see, your
kidneys, heart, lungs and blood are
all benefited when you work in
the gardens and in the fields. Hon.
est work makes for honest health.

Dance Back to Youth

r INSTEAD of doing a book, of middle age
/ should step out and dance. That is the advice of
Sir James Camille the noted English physician and
philosopher. He argues that dancing develops the
spirit Of youth that the young do not need to dance
while the aged cannot do without it.
Henry Ford has the notion, but where the
American manufacturer insists on old-fashined watzes
and reels the British peer declares for modern steps.
The prescriptions of both may be followed without
fict Il is worth remembering that each emphasizes
the wisdom of including ones wife in the terpschorean
diversion.

AIDING THE FARMERS

One of the results of the Presi- dents recent western trip has been a revival of the government plan to and the farmers Commerce Sec retary Hoover let 1t be known that the government is considering methods. and thinks cooperative marketing is the best plan.
 It was less than a year ago when President Coolidge spoke of the desirability of farmers cultiNating the habit of standing upon their own feet rather than expecting the royernment 10 tender so much aid. The trip to st. Paul seems 10 have brought about an amelioration of this attitude.
 What was learned had to do with fhe attitude of the farmers should the government fail to do some thing" The farmers, the President was told. were inclined to make an attack upon the tariff unless their grievances - western farmers al WAYS have grievances-were sympa- thetically considered. The soil tillers voted the G. 0. P. all right, but that isn't saying they are inclined to have no say as to political policy A reprsal against the tariff for governmental inaction naturally Is to he avoided. Secretary Hoover therefore, starts the government ball rolling by handing the solI-hlI- CTS some good advice about CO., oneration. something that the buS- mess interest of the west rather dis like.

"CHANGING CARS"

Since Lucius S. Storrs, formerly head of the Connecticut company, became managing director Of the advisory council' of the American Electric Railway association, he has become the Will Hays of the street car interests
 His latest careful and prudent observations handed down 10 a dutiful press hads to do with .ong- haul service for passengers and freight on the trolley lines. Mr. storrs evidently has come to the conclusion that the public, when it takes a trolley ride, dislikes 10 G'' out of one car and transfer 10 an- other-usuauy after wait.
 Having broused around in the middle west since leaving Connecti- cut. Mir. storrs has discovered that there are large interurban systems. which. if they "co-ordinated' their service, could hsul passengers over long distances with cou1enjence and gain to the public,
 All of which sounds sweet, But when Mir Storrs was running 'he Connecticut company what was the system right in New Britain? ln- stead of through car lines from one end Of the city to the other, they operated 10 the Center, where pas esngers were transferred 10 other Hnes-usuary after q wait, as IS the custom at present The system existed more or less before Mir storrs was running the company and was intensified during that time.
 ] The place 10 begin such things is in the cities. There are atOEeiAei too many transfer stations al through New England. Tn Boston there are half a dozen in the citl and vicinity - in that town on' merely rides from one transfei point 10 the other.

COMMUNICATED
Meat Stores and Sunday Hours

New Britain Evening HeraH:
 Dear Editor: Would thank you if you could find space for the fol- lowing:
 The subject has been mentioned in your columns, regarding uniform hours for stores that keep open Sundays. These stores probably could not find the key if they wanted to close.
 Some years back. old timers say, We used to keep open every night until o'clock and Saturday night it was F before We got out. Sun days we used to keep open in the forenoon" Times have changed, thanks to the Chamber of Com merce. But only a few observe the schedule as laid out By them.
 In place of seeking Sunday hours these storekeepers should fa- miliarize themselves with our laws, that prohibit inc selling of certain commodities on Sunday. This law was made for their own benefit. But why is it not enforced in this city? 1t is in numerous places throughout the state and the public has not suffered.
 It is about time merchants inter- estod themselves in their own well fare and stood up for equal rights. ARCHIE J. SHARP.

 In spite of these handlcaps, the cities have been growing-but as before hintod, neither Hartford or Springfield are growing as swiftly as New Britain and in the course of time we may pass both, As the saying goes however. the first 100 years will be the hardest"
 The official report that there are 2,495 vacant tenements in Spring. field, and that there are large number in Hartford, indicates that a large part of the population has left those cities for the suburbs. The flor rent" sign is both places is considerably in evidence.
 Reports from numerous cities the country over are to the effect that normaIcy in the housing situation has been reached in many of them and is rapidly being reached in the others. "Normalcy" in housing means there is an excess of tene- ments over the demand therefor. The effect upon rents is to stabilize them in favor of the tenant. The time when landlords had the upper hand is said 10 be about over.
 A contributing factor to the cfea- ton of vacant tenements in both Springfield and Hartford hss been the flexibility of tenants, who 1 through use of automobiles have been able to live elsewhere.

 The walkout in the Cape Breton area w1s called by United Mine Workers officials last March as the result of wage dispute with the company during which miners credit at the stores had been cut off.

JULIUS KRUTTSCHNTTT

The inscrutable scroll of death this year has been levytng a heavy toll of men born to fame. Scarcely a week-sometlmes scarcely a day has passed without the newspapefs chronicing the termination of some illustrious career.
 Julius Kruttschnitt, who passed the great divide yesterday was one of Americas great railroad eXecu- lives. He was identified with rail lines for AS years, beginning on the lower rungs of the ladder, reaching the head of the Southern Pacific twelve years ago. In New England the railroad is known only by repu- tation; in California and the south west it is deeply rooted in the pros perity of those regions, Its import ance under the kruttschnitt man.  agement reached the point where it became third in the list of nation al carriers" as the A. r. suc- cinctly put 1t.

Nlcows from the Campus Cat Dear Mac;
 am visiting Belle, who was at the University of Washington last year, you remember? She is mar ried now and she and Tom, her hus- band, have cunning bungalow here at Bellport. Belle does all the housekeeping but she certainly does have a hard time with her accounts. Last night Tom asked her If she had balanced her checkbook and she said: What do you think l am, a iuggler?" Tom grinned and said that lots of books were balanced by juggling but that it was not the best way.
 A lot of the stubs in Belle's checkbook were blank and she couldn't remember what they, were for. Finally she dug up bunch of memoranda on scraps of paper and after an hours work Tom looked up and said: Darling, your ac- count is overdrawn."
 Don't say that, dear" said Belle. "It may be slightly exaggerated, but not overdrawn."
 Tt is," Tom insisted. Have you drawn any other checks besides these?"
 Let me see" said Belle. 70 yes I sent one today to Madame Blanche, for $6O."
 Tom looked dazed.
 Never mind, dear" Belle com- fcrted. "I'll tell the bank 10 take 1t out of the interest"
 Really, Mac, Belle's ideas of busi- ness are - well, she refused to pay a messenger boy 75 cents for tele- gram the other day. She told him she had gotten one from another boy last week for quarter. l can see where she is going to be great heIp 10 Tom in This business, eh l Mac? Meow |. . meow
