 Q, Is there any way to take out gold letters that have been printed on leata- r?
 A. Soften the leather with thin raste or moiston it slightly and. as the leather begins 10 dry, it should be rubbed with q soft bristlc brush until all trace of the gold is rcmov- ed.

FIXING UP HU NGEREORn
 COURT.

We are rather inclined to agree with a minority Of the Common Council which objected at last nights session, to the paving Of Hungorford Court at an estimated cost Of $S.000 10 the city. Approval was given to the proposal 10 pave the new street or part Of it, by the council
 Huneorford Court is not in good shape, in fact below the point at which the old and new roadways in tersccted it is very poor. It needs fixing up, but, below q set Of new arments just few hundred yards from Main street the street is not heavily inhabited or used, TOT would it be if it were paved as fl would take time to build up traffic and the route is simply a parallel to Arch and Franklin Square, either one Of which furnish a passway 10 the southern parts of town.
 II would seem that permanent paving Of Hmgcrford Court might well wait until it is built up at the lower end. 1T the city feels that 1t must spend SS,0Oo on improvements the money might go into repairing macadam in spots about town which sadly need It. X dirt road. rough though ii may be. is easier on car or inc temper Of a driver, than d dcmoralizcd macadam road. with it's sharp holes and ragged going.

such a career, perhaps as lark
 but nevertheless with dire results.
 As first offenders they are entitled 10 emphatic advice before it is too late. Proper guidance is just as i'm portant as punishment with the fu- ture of such youthful transgrossors at stako. They have made a false move, yet they have long lives be- fore them and it is the duty of so- cioty to impress upon them the CT TOT Of their act and the necessity of reform.
 Police continually report there are an astonishing number of youths in New Britain who remain outdoors a great part of the night. It is such youngsters, apparently unattached and defyins home ties who invariably find themselves seized hy the hand Of the law. Then inc surprised parents are heard from. usually eager 10 obtain Ieniency for their offspring.
 In such serious matters the de- sire 10 do a little preaching" is nearly unavoidable, if calling atten- tion to manifest dereliction can masquerade under this term. Ii is from such beginnings that the hardened criminal class invariably comes. Nowadays we hear much Of the need for "comhatting crime. '" an agitation that occupies the at tention of layman and police alike. But the best way to combat crime is to combat 1t in Its infancy. to turn boys away from its false al- lurement, to rehabilitate their bet ter selves after they have made a The best method is to prevent promiscuous night life among youths; they should be forced to stay at home within req sonable night hours. A curfcw law may he obnoxious, but let the po- lice enforce an unofficial one against youths out at night.

BETTING ONCE WAS TABOO IN OLD KY.
Now One Of Few States Where
 It Is Allowed

Louisville, July 1 GPt-Kentucky now one of the few states in the union. where pari-mutual horse race betting is legal, in it's early days Ifrownod upon playing the ponies"
 This year millions were bet on the races by Kentuckians, who little realized that 143 years ago, a man .of Revolutionary War fame, bet mare on horse race, was arrest ed and deemed, 'an infamous gambler"
 When Bubbling Over came home ahead of the pack to win the 1928 Kentucky Derby, more than two millions had been bet through the pari-mutuals. E. R. Bradley, owner of Bubbling Over is quoted as say ing the day before the race If Bub- bling Over wins he will be worth $5o0,0n to me-"
 In May l7S3, Hugh McGary, who achicv~d i fame at Blue Licks battle ground, bet tho mare on race at Higgins P~th at Harrodsburg, Ky.
 The court ruled that Hugh Me Gary be deemed an infamous gambler and he shall not be eligible for any office Of trust or honor within the state'-This decision vas pursuant to an act of the State As sembly enti led, "An act to sup press Excessive Gambling"
 Betting became freer, however, after this and historical reports say that General Lafayette, while visit ing Kentucky as the guest of Henry Clay, and watching his Imp, York shire. and a number of imported mare rtn, drank freely and lost twelve pounds on the horse races"

THE DEADLY PISTOL AND A BOYS LITE

Every year, as Independence Day approaches, it appears necessary to call attention 10 the deadly possi- bilities lurking in the toy pistol. Unfortunately one New Britain family already moums the death of a youngster who inadvertently used one of these toys in the wrong way, resulting in the end of his young life.
 Physicians everywhere make sure Of a ready access to anti-tetanus antitoxin as the celebration of the natal day approaches. Tetanus often sets in from the improper use of toy pistols. The best way to pre- vent the disease is 10 discourage and prevent, if possible, the use of these toy firearms; at least, their use should not be permitted with out careful and painstaking in struction. r a boy is loo young to accept profitable use of such in- strucGon he is too young 10 employ a toy pistol
 The fatality in New Britain will or ought to be a lesson to all par cnts regarding the danger lurking in apparently harmless toys and some species of fireworks used upon the annual holiday. It may be hard to control the ebullient enthusiasm of our lads upon the holiday. but the dictates for safe and sane celebration demand it.

NEW BRITAIN INDUSTRY
 REMAINS GOOD

The first significance of the re- port regarding the continued good industrial situation in New Britain is that it reflects the building in dustry throughout the country as whole. So long as builders need hardware -- SO long as doors need hinges, bolts and locks, and so long as carpenters and masons need tools - so long will 2 lively hard ware market reflect the total of new buildings of every sort being constructed. Industry in New Brit ain. therefore, can well be regard ed as an accurate index Of building conditions throughout the country as a whole.
 In the second place. many of the goods manufactured in the city are nationally known are nationally advertised and are distributed un- der labels which enable consumers to ask for them by special and distinctive names. This applies to goods for household use particular ly. The national market is con- stantly expanding with the popula- ton of the country, a conservative estimate being one per cent a year This constant national expansion of necessity will be reflected in the eN- pansion Of local industries. IL is one reason why the future growth Of the city is assured; continuation Of the building boom throughout most of the country accclerates this nat ural growth.
 A recently published map Of in- lustrial conditions throughout the country showed Connecticut indus try in better condition than that of any other state in New England. It the industrial situation in New Britain is superior than elsewhere in Connecticut, as announced by the state industrial inspector, tho industry in New Britain must be superior to that of any other city in New England.
 If anyone needs better proof oI t widespread continuation of high pressure building throughout the nation than this he must he ad- judged very particular, II must be remembered that hardware is moi only being utilized in large quanti- ties in the construction of conner cial buildings and new homes, but that the increased Use Of the au- tomobile has made necessary the construction Of millions of garages. The average garage is not consid- cred much of a building, but the aggregate of hardware used in them must be considerable, and therefore yields a more than faint reflection in the prosperity Of the city. This condition has existed for several years and the saturation point has not yet been reached.

 c. Have there been authentic cases of hair growing after d person has died?
 A. AccorC:ng 10 the United States Public II -alth Service and other authorities, no authentic cases are on record where the hair of a human bel g has grown after death. The belief appears to be based on the fat that the skin shrinhs after death and the subsequent change in the face gives the appearance oI growing hair.
 Q. Will you tell me how to plant sweet peas?
 1 X. Sow seed very early in a well | drained place. Dig a trench two feet deep if possible, mix plenty of rot ted manure or sheep fertilizer and bone meal with the removed soil, and then fill the trench to within six inches of the top. Sow seed every inch or two, and cover with two inches of sifted soil As the plants grow fill the trench gradually to the top. sThen thin the plants to three inches apart. Keep them moist (also cooD by spreading grass clip pings on the surface when the real hot weather arrives. Give them full sun while growing.
