GIRL RIDES ON BUMPER
 AS SHE RUNS INTO AUTO
Carried Along In Safety, Runs Away In Fright, Caught By
 Driver

Running from the sidewalk, through a string of parked auto mobiles on Arch street about. $50 last evening, Elsie Rentz, aged 10, of "A Prospect street. was caught on the bumper of car driven by Jos eph Martino of 76 Cleveland street, and carried several feet before Mar tino could bring the car to a stop. The girl ran away and it was neces- sary for Martino to chase her to de- termine the extent of her injuries.
 He brought her to New Britain General hospital, where an examina- tion disclosed only slight bruises on the left leg. She was able to re- turn to her home at once, badly frightened but otherwise none the worse for her experience. But for the bumper, the child could not have escaped being run over, as she came into the street so suddenly that Martino did not have time to stop or swerve out of the way.
 He reported the accident to the police and was exonerated from blame. He was driving south In the center of the street because Of the large number of automobiles park ed at the curb, their owners being at the boxing bouts at the state armory. He estimated the speed of his car at approximately 20 miles an hour.

CHARTER REVISION
 DISCUSSION OPENS
Not Necessary to ReWrite It En-
 tirely, Committee Decides

That the present city charter Is practical and that with the elimi- nation of few unnecessary words and phrases it would serve it's pur- pose until after the legislature adopts its usual amendments was the unanimous opinion of the charter revision committee which met for organization at the mayors office last evening.
 Edward r. Hall was elected chairman and Mayor Weld's secre- tary, R. J. Bardeck, was elected clerk of the committee. Present at the meeting were Mayor Weld, Alderman David L. Nair, Senator Edward F. Hall, Representative Fred o. Rackliffe, Judge B. ". AL ling, Corporation Counsel John H. Kirkham, Ernest W. Christ, Alder man William H. Judd. Frank L.. Conlon and Thomas Fay.
 Mir Hall told the members that the best thing to do would be to go through the entire charter and straighten it out. Judge Kirkham said he thought the charter was in good shape and would not have to be rewritten. ''The charter is not as bad as the ordinances, but suppose the ordinances will always be in bad shape,' Judge filling de- clared.
 It was Senator Halls opinion that anyone who was not an attor- ney would experience great diff1- culty in understanding the charter. Instead of re-printing the entire charter. 1t was decided that the amendments made at the next meeting of the legislature be tack ed on the charter. Toward the lat ter part of the meeting the mem bers discussed different parts of the charter but came to the con- clusion that matters must be laid over until the latter part of the year.

 Games were played and re- treatments served.
 Miss Doris Wood won the prize for having the most original cos- tune and was presented with a rubber fish. Her costume represent ed costume between railway express clerk, street car conduc- tor and a keeper in a state prison, according to the same eye witness.
 Miss Dorothy Edwards was given a pair of pink candlesticks for having the funniest costume. Her costume was a representation of the old calico days when women wore skirts which swept the floor, lace yokes at the throat and leg of mutton sleeves. The outfit was augmented with a feather neck piece of the vintage of Civil war days.

BIRD SMASHES WINDOW
 AND FLIES INTO OFFICE
Pheasant Surprises Workers in m- voice Department At P. & F.
 Corbin Plant This Morning

Employees of the invoice depart ment of the F. & F. Corbin plant were visited by an unexpected caller in the person of a hen pheasant which entered the room through a pane of glass in a window. Although the glass flew in several directions the bird appeared unhurt and was located, after about five minutes search. under 8 desk, where it was captured. Arrangements were made to allow the bird to go.
 The occurrence of today was the second of it's kind this week. & pheasant having flown through the windshield of a car yesterday. Par tridges, particularly, have the habit of flying without thought where they are going, about this time of the year. Many naturalists claim that this trait Is due to a natural law which, in this manner, causes coveys of birds from the same hatch to break up and separate, thus pre- venting inbreeding. It Is possible that pheasants obey the same im- pulse during this season the Mad Moon" of game birds.

 Tt has been found that many college girls like recreation and ath- letics more than serious study and that young people prefer movies to reading, she said. This is partly due to the fact that educational methods often are not up-to-date. Educational methods must be changed to prepare boys and girls for life today.
 Religion must meet the needs of today. It must be thought of as a growing thing, not as static"
