 High Mass

St. Peters church will celebrate its silver anniversary late next month, and Rev. Charles Coppens, the pas tor, is planning to invited Rev. N r. X. Schneider of Meriden, the pas. tor of the local church until 1910, to celebrate high mass in connection with the observance. Other clergy men from this city and other places will be invited to participate.
 The church Is composed of Ger man, French and Austrian mem bers. Services were held in the old Town school until February, 1900 when the basement of the present church was completed. Fathe, Schneider was pastor at that time and under his care the parish pros pered until 1t was able to complet' and dedicate the upper church.
 Father Coppens, native of Bel giun. succeeded to the pastorate il May, 1910, and during the World War his strangely mixed lcongrega ton attracted, much attention be. cause of the absence of the anti pathies which would be expected.
 Mrs. Jacob Baumgartner, organ, list, will have charge of the musical program in connection with the an niversary celebration. She has beer in charge of the music at St. Peters church for 37 years.

PRINCIPALS AND LAWYERS
 STEP OUT OF FIGURE
Engineers Reach Agreement In Suit of TOmasso and La Rocco And
 Case Is Settled.

With both principals and lawyers disregarded, the disagreeing expert witnesses reached settlement in the suit of Angelo Tomasso, digging con- tractor, against Joe La Rocca, and the case was settled and withdrawn from the city court this morning. LaRocca employed Tomasso to dig a cellar at 160 Fremont street, but the two parties could not agree on the amount of earth which had been re- moved. Tomasso's engineer, Philip A. Merian, estimated that 945 cubic yards had been removed, while Louis A, Oldershaw, who acted for La Rocca, claimed that only 590 cubic yards had been taken out.
 TomaNso brought suit through A. Gerard Casale and the case was tried in the city court before Judge Wil- liam c. Hungerford on December 29, 1924. Edward A. Mag representing the defendant. Judge Hungerford ruled that, although both engineers were reliable witnesses, 1t was im- possible to take the word of either in this case as they had measured the cellar after the earth had been removed. The facts that the ground had originally been hilly and that rock had been struck in excavating further complicated matters, and Judge Hungerford told the two en- gineers to fix upon fair settlement between themselves without refer ence to the contending parties or their attorneys.
 The engineers brought in report fixing the amount of earth taken out at 750 cubic yards, this was accepted, and the case was settled today with out costs to either party.

INTELL!GENCE TEST
 FOR AUTO LICENSES
State Motor Vehicle Dept. Slogan: "Say It With Brains"

Hartford, Jan. 31--An intelligence test would be given to persons ap- plying for their first license to oper- ate motor vehicles on the public highways, under plan which the state motor vehicle department has evolved in connection with an effort to secure uniformity in the opera tors license systems of thickly popu. lated states of the east. A move. ment to educate the public to the need of such uniformity in this re- spect has been under way for some time, in connection with which the Connecticut department has publish ed a pamphlet giving the laws and regulations of nearly all the states on the subject, which includes the following outline of what the ex- animation of green" applicants should be:
 "The examination into fitness is, in itself. a great safeguard for life and property. Its proper adminis- tration makes its possible for a con- potent examiner to immediately dis cover any obvious defect which the applicant may have, to inquire into his mental processes. his general in- telligence. his ability to read and write and lastly, his actual ability to run a motor vehicle properly and with safety to himself and others. All of these elements must enter into any competent examination.
 In actual practice an examination Of this kind means that the examin- CT has CD to form a rough and ready opinion of the general intelli- gence of an applicant. This Is done as a matter of course. The appli- cant who presents himself before an examiner can be met in friendly and interested manner and ordinary subjects talked about in connection with the examination which is to come. Any one who responds read fly and quickly to questions and who acts and looks normal should, in the absence of anything in his ap- rearance to put the examiner on his guard, be passed as to this section Of the examination"
