II is 6 comparatively easy matter 1 10 get men to give money for the 1 promotion of the interests of their 1 boys, according to Rev. Samuel \. ! Fislie, Of the Berlin Congregational i church, who spoke at meeting of the Rotary club at the Burritt hotel ! today, hut it is almost impossible 10 get them to give themselves or their own time.
 1 Mir. l'isko referred 10 National i Boys week next week and in his talk 10 the Rotarians he discussed 1 the average boy at some length. He said there are three periods in the ! life of q boy, Up 10 seven years Of 1 ago Is when he learns by touch, when he wants 10 handle everything he sees. He learns that rubber will stretch and that paper will tear. etc. 1 From seven 10 13 is the emotional period when he is creature Of i'm pulses. The will plays little or no part in his life during these years. 1 He does what interests him. | From 13 to Is or 20 is the period when he begins to become a man and he learns to appeal to his own will power
 IL is in this period of a boys life | that his character is formed, ac- i cording to the minister, who said he has found that 1t is hard thing 10 change the ways of an old sinner" All personal and most mental habits are formed during this period. he added.
 Them mister said civic clubs arr , under obligations 10 see that boys and girls come into maturity with strong physical and intellectual her itages. He paid a tribute to th" New Britain school and school off c;als and the results being accom- pJshcd in this work.
 President A. F. Corbin an nounced that on May 27 R. 0. Clark will give his annual shad and strawberry dinner 10 Rotarians anu their wives. Mir. Clark, who gives Il similar dinner every year. was referred to by the Rev. Mr, Fisk, as "the grand high chancellor Of East Berlin"

 in Nine Hours

The automobile, without which there would be fewer accidents, con sidorably less pleasure and no traffic cops; whirls around New Dritain's corners In greater numbers every day according to the policemen who direct the movements of the popu- lar conveyances in the down town section.
 The National bank corner and the corner directly opposite City Hall are the busiest in the city, although the layout of the streets which feed trar- fife past the South Church corner, and the junction of Franklin square Park, Main and Elm streets makes tho task more complicated. A great many automobiles which pass the south Church corner seldom pass through West Main street, q study of conditions reveals, this being es- pecially true of some business ve- hicles. On the other hand. the flow from Main, Washington. High and other streets, into West Main street, sends thousands of cars daily along the west side of Central park. many of which also pass the South Church corner and the other posts from which traffic is directed.
 On Saturday, April 10, 11,457 au- tomobiles passed the National Bank corner In nine hours, and on Mon day, April II, go cars turned into the stretch on the west side of the park between 1o:15 and 1l:30 q. m. Between 11:30 and 1920 the same day, 610 cars were counteod in the same spot and from 1:30 to 2:30 ?. h., 729 cars went by.
 At the corner of Washington and West Main streets that day, which was an average Sunday from the standpoint of traffic, according 10 the policemen, 1,10S cars passed be- tween and 5 ?. m. and from to 6 o'clock, the number dropped 10 9GO.
 On Monday, April 12, from noon to 1 D. m., l,040 cars passed the Ma tlonal Bank corner and from 10 3 r. m, 907 cars passed. In the half hour period from 4;45 10 SIS D. m,, COS cars passed and from 5:45 10 G:15 D. m., 673 cars were counted at that corner.
