\ SORDID TRAGEDY

 The girl had tired of being a wall flower" ana was going to be a "modern' girl; she was going to learn all the latest steps and have a good time henceforth, At the same time she had known the chi ropractor and during q visit to his office she was strangled after, so the chiropractor is reported to have confessed, she attempted to wiring money from him by threatening to expose his double life.
 In the background are the chlro- practor's wife and 12-year-old daughter. They have been innocent of all wrongdoing, yet are terrible sufferers as a consequence of the chiropractor's Reflection from the ordinary Canons of society.

COLONEL MITCHELL

In modifying the sentence found against William Mitchell, former colonel in the army air service, President Coolidge tempered mercy with discipline. Although the five year suspension stands approved, the colonel is granted half pay and all allowances. This may not be satisfactory to the stormy petrel of the air service and his resignation would not surprise anyone.
 Colonel Mitchell shattered all precedent and undoubtedly had little regard for discipline. He was crusader anl as such crusaded with a ferocity that greatly shocked the government. That he did much good in calling attention to details of the flying service which other wise might have gone uncorrectcd is generally admitted. But disci- plinc is discipline, and the final climax had to come.
 The colonel now regards himself as q martyr, and thousands regard him in the same light. There can be no doubt that by resgning he can earn considerably more than by remaining with the service on half pay for five years. Five years is a long time in an active life such as is lived by Colonel Mitchell.

LIGHTS FOR THE STATIONS

Whom the Herald recently sug- gested 10 the go-getting salcsmcn Of the Connecticut Light and Pow er company that they could do worse than talk with the officials of the New Haven railroad about more modern lighting at the New Britain and Berlin railroad stations there was 8 lurking hope in the editorial breast that the salesmen would be up and doing in hurry.
 The assumption did not prove 10 be unreasonable. E. F. Putnam, dis trict perintendent of the Con necticut Light and Power company, immediately thanked us for the tip and advised us that his men would talk with the Kew Haven railroad officials and try 10 convince those dignitaries that more light is need cd where semi-darkncss has reign en supreme.
 Subsequently came another happy epistle, this time to the effect that B. L. Champion had gone 10 New Haven and talked at some length with the electrical engineer of the New Haven railroad, who authorized tho statement that the railroad company desired 10 improve the H. lumination at the two stations and were preparing plans for so doing. The plans, it was declared, called for a rather elaborate installation and it might require some time be- fore money is available for the work.
 In the meantime, however, the railroad is trying to improve mai ,ers by washing and cleaning their reflectors at the stations and putting in some larger lamps. This process is 10 be temporary. When the rail road accumuates sufficient Of a lighting appropriation to justify a more proper improvement, the rail- road Is expected to install better lighting facilities at both stations and cause them 10 look like the gathering places of civilized man kind at night.
 The officials of the New Haven railroad are to be congratulated a' having seen the light sufficiently to he willing 10 turn on more light al inc New Britain and Berlin sta lions. This was time, no doub'' where there was no possibility oi disagreement. The lights have been voefuIly inadequate for a long 'i'h: and even though a temporary clean ing up of the reflectors and larger lamps will be temporarily Sa's'ac' iorv. it is 10 he hoped that the rail' road will not remain satisfied with q makeshift plan, but in due time VII set itself 10 work and install th' kind of lighting fixtures that every citv and town is entitled to enjoy when it goes travelling on tho trains.
