RECALLS HOSPITAL 0F EARLIER TIME
Mayor Weld Con6ratulateS Ofi'
 CerS on Its Growth

"Reminiscences of the time when the New Britain General hospital was nothing but private home were recalled today by Mayor Gard ner C. Weld, who spoke at the Hos pital Rotary club at noon. The mayor recalled the time when the building changed from private residence to a small hospital. He traced it's evolution to the present institution, which he said was a credit to the city as an institution of healing as well as an architec- tural ornament to the neighborhood in which it Is located.
 He complimented the institution upon it's staff of nurses and the ef- ficiency of it's officers and internes. He spoke of the training school and pointed out that it was an asset to the city.
 James S. North. president of the c. J. White Mfg. Co.,, and president of the Hospital Training School for Nurses, presided. Miss Catherine Gallery gave humorous reading. William s. Cannon led the group singing.
 Miss Maude F. Traver, directress of nurses at the hospital, is secre- tary pro tenn, and second vice -presi- dent Of the Connecticut League for Nursing Education as well as chair man of the program committee, of a joint meeting between the above or ganization, the Public Health asso- citation and the Graduate Nurse as- sociation to be held at Hartford, Wednesday.
 Each of the three organizations will hold independent meetings in the forenoon. Later they will meet with the other units when they are expected to amalgamate into one or ganization.

DELAWARE CHARTER
 BUSINESS IS EASY
10000 Firms Are Listed in
 This State

Dover, Del, Oct. 22 LP>-Attract- ed to this state by one of the most liberal general incorporation laws found in the Union, between 5000 and 7O,00O corporations throughout the nation today are doing business under Delaware charters.
 The features of the law which has made the state a Mecca to in- corporators are few, but compelling It is easy to comply with. It is speedy Tn operation. And 1t restricts the states interest in, and supervi sion over, it's charter holders to the apparent minimum compatible with the protection of stockholders.
 Liberal Features Attract
 Financially, Delaware requires an organization fec of ten cents per S1,000 for the first $2,00o,00o of authorized adjudication, and five cents per s1,0OO thereafter. Upon issues of no-par stock an arbitrary value of $10O per share is set, for the purpose of taxation only. Be cause of this latter provision, the total corporate value of Delaware charters is undeterminable.
 The annual tax also is levied on the basis of authorized capitaliza- ton. Simple annual reports are nec- essary, but they do not require dis closure of the corporation's finan- cial affairs. Of all the company's books and records, only an original or duplicate stock ledger must be kept in Delaware. Here, except for provisions safeguarding stockhold- CTS, the states interest ceases.
 Stock Not Taxed
 Stock held by residents is not taxed, nor is it subject to an in heritance levy. The corporation it. self has no income tax 10 pay.
 Incorporation can be completed within A hours. The incorporators need not personally appear or even be named. They may attend their

NEW YORK BANDITS
 LOOT NIGHT CLUB
Line Up Guests and Escape
 With S2O,OOO

New York, Oct. 22.-LP)-SiX bandits early today lined up forty guests in the Biarritz, a night club at 210 West 54th Street, and robbed them of cash and jewelry estimated at s2O.OOO.
 One of the bandits stood guard at the door with an automatic rifle while his companions collected tho Valuables. He fired a shot into the ceiling before running to the street with the others 10 escape in a taxi cab.
 One ot the girl entertainers of the club was knocked unconscious when she became faint and stagger- ed out of the lineup. Robert Culbert- son, manager. was struck with a rifle butt and knocked down as the bandits entered.
 Only one valuable article. a dia- mond ring said to have been worth worth S1,000. was left behind. It was returned to Frank Tipone, one of the clubs owners, when he plead ed that it was an heirloom and a keepsake.
 The club is located on the top floor of three-story building. When the door buzzer was heard, Tipone started down stairs to see who desired entrance. On the sec ond floor he was overpowered and held a prisoner while the six men rushed upstairs and ordered the guests to the center of the room. Mattresses, cooks. the orchestra and entertainers were all made 10 line up.
 Police were notified of the hold up by a man who escaped from the room and climbed over roofs until he reached an apartment house through which he could go 10 the street. No clues were left by the bandits.

British Court Censorship.

A bill has just passed its second
reading in the British House of Com
mons which may be considered as
a possible American measure of
law. It forbids, under penalty,
the publication of salacious details
of court trials, being particularly
aimed at the printing of indecent par
ticulars in divorce cases. 1t provides
that in such cases only the names and
addresses of principals and witnesses,
a concise statement of the grounds
upon which the case is tried, the sum-
MINIS up, the verdict and the judg-
menr. maJ be printed.
So grave has been the offense to
public decency by the publication of
unpleasant and suggestive details of
court proceedings in Great Britain
that a general demand has been voiced
for this prohibition. 1t was evidenced
by the vote on the bill'in question, 222

Of his most forceful and significant
work was done in picturing in his own
individual manner the scenes of action
in the centers of production in this
country. During the war he rendered
a service of great value in thus pre-
senting with dramatic inspiration the
tokens of American preparation for
the victory at sea and in Europe.
OF especial value were the illustra-
tions furnished by Mr.. Pennell to vol
umes of great literary charm written
by his wife. This collaboration was
exceptionally fortunate and attractive.
A library OF unique material was thus
cre@~ad. which will stand as memo
Ejal to this great illustrator, and to his
faithful and gifted associate in art as
in lie.
In ore respect Joseph Pennell was
an exceptional man. He is perhaps
the only one Of high distinction in life
who selected his own birthday. He
was born in Philadelphia. The records
of the Friends Meeting House which
gave the date Of his birth were de-
stroyed many years ago by fire, and so
he felt free to select his own natal
and he chose the Fourth
Of July as "a good American date"
and 1860 as his birth year, saying,

character as this champion of the
unfortunate that Julia Howe wrote
her immortal Battle Hymn of the

America more than $50, 900 for the re-
lease OF Greece in the later war of
1866 against Turkish oppression.

American friends of Greece not a
reply to Byron's challenge?

History tells how, when Athens had
fallen in 1927, and despair had settled
upon the desperate Greeks-when
even the memory of Marco BozZaris
and his heroic 500, who had defeated
10 900 Turks in 1923, could no longer
stir their hopeS-the "Gaul and the
Muscovite," together with the Anglo
Saxon, did at last come to their re-
lief and compelled the Turkish horde
to bite the dust.
A new czar, Nicholas, had come to
the throne Of Russia, a new prime
minister, George Canning, had sue
ceeded Lord Liverpool in England,
and a new public indignation had
swept over France because Of Turkish
atrocities in the massacre of the Jani-
zaries in Constantinople. The three
powers combined annihilated~ the
Turkish fleet and redeemed Greece.
But before the governments could be
stirred to action there was the hero
ism of the English poet and the
American surgeon, as individuals
championing the cause which seemed
SO hopeless.

Now, on the very day when Greece

Forest Fires and Bootleggers.

1t is estimated that the damage
done by forest fires in nearby Mary
land, which fortunately have now
subsidized, have caused a loss Of near
ly 100000 III property of all kinds.
Numerous houses and barns have
been destroyed and timber tracts
have been ruined. Crops have been
injured, perhaps destroyed III several
places. Fortunately no lives were
lost, although there were several
narrow escapes from tragedy.
The explanation is offered that
some of these fires, which occurred
too far from railroads to have been
originated by sparks from locomo-
tives, We're caused 10y bootleggers or
moonshiners. whose stills were To-
Gated in the woods and underbrush
of relatively remote sections. This
would appear to be a reasonable hy-
pothesis. It is known that there IS
much industry in this Illicit line i'll
that area of Maryland which lies
east and south of Washington. Many
stills have been raided there by en-
forcement squads and destroyed.
Others, however, undoubtedly have
been established. The methods Of
these criminals are not scrupulously
careful save for their own protection.
1t is quite possible that in some cases
ha 70 al IN. do frtNK owl
dence. Ii that was done, however,
the result has been TO remove the
cover under which these distillers
have been at work in the past. In
one case, it is definitely reported, a
fleeing bootlegger deliberately set fire
to the underbrush, lighting matches
as he ran and throwing them into
the infiammable, material, TO cover
his flight.
It behooves the owners OF the lands
in this area not already devastated
by the fires to clean up their prop
erty. removing the slashiugs and tin =
der-like rnateriap that now strews
the ground, as a safeguard against
future disaster. Had nigh winds
prevailed during the period of this
blaze it might easily have been de-
veIoped into an inferno OF fame, de-
stroying towns and even menacinS
cities. Nearby Maryland has had a
narrow escape from q catastrophe
of great magnitude. and this lesson,
taught by the comparatively small
loss. should be learned and measures
taken to prevent u recurrence.

THIS AND THAT


SO we. too, felt at the fire in question,
There was no intention in our minds,
either at the time or afterwards, in
writing about It, of being Indifferent.
We merely acted and felt, and so
afterwards wrote. as all persons act
and feel under similar circumstances.
y X 4 X
Having now removed from our un-
doubtedly honest cheeks the blush
of shame which mounted to them
upon reading Mrs. HIS good letter.
we take up in earnest the really
important idea she suggests.
Why do we not, all of us, try
to look at the other fellows side
of things a great deal more than
we do? (The I'VE" used now Is no.
poor substitute for IT, but the
genuine. inclusive personal plural
pronoun)
Life would be much better. hap
pier for all OF us, if each one of
US could look at matters from the
other fellows viewpoint, instead of
always confining our view to our
own side of things.
Each one of US Is the center or
the world--for himself--a center
from which he looks out, as the
spider does from his web, and sees
lines running in all directions, but
each one terminating solely in him
self.
II we would only try to look at
those wires of activity, Of likes and
dislikes. veritable lifelines. from the
other end, instead of our own end,
we might find life more glorious and
make it so for others.
Yet, what do we do?
vE,nN Il Al
fire. (Permit me one "I." kind read
ers.) We stand on the curb of life
and watch the other fellows fire.
We find 1t interesting, finally de-
clare, "Shucks, It's only all old she'd
and go away satisfied.
But we miss seeing the child with
the cat in her arms. We fail 70
discover Tommy meowing out his
question, What makes the yard SO
light"
Probably those who do not care
for cats will assert that Tommy did
not put the above question.
We. on the other hand. believe,
with our correspondent, that Tom
did veritably ask what made the
yard so light, and also what so
many persons were doing around
there.
We know cats who would ask that
very question, with such insistence
In their green eyes that no one. not
even a policeman. would dare give
them mo" for an answer.
Those who fail to hear their ques-
tions are simply those who sit
solidly at the center of their web
and regard life from the inside, look
ing out, rather than from the out
side looking in.
The latter attitude, in its entirety
is manifestly an impossibility in this
life, but each one of us can make
some strides toward its attainment.
If we write an article about fires,
for instance. and fail to give the
other fellows viewpoint. We may
make amends by writing another
article and giving 1t.
If. at times, we are constrained by
others or by ourselves, to be jealous,
| critical in an unsympathetic way or
mean. we may correct these attitudes
In some measure simply by thinking.
or at least trying to think, from the
! other fellows standpoint.
