ing rules. If they know this, they
are willing to sacrifice their free
dom for old K.H.S. Perhaps they
think that training rules are not
very important. But all the coach
es of athletics teach that to play
his best man must be in perfect
physical condition and this can be
acquired only by following train
ing rules i'm regard to eating and
sleeping.
Our ball teams represent our
school. 1t is quite evident that if
we do not want the schools of the
neighboring towns to think that
we are inferior to them we must
select good persons to represent
US because we will continue to be
judged by our representatives.

RETIREMENT BILL
ACTION SEEN SOON
Committee, Agreed on Pro-
visions, Will Take Time to
Consider Plan.

With House Leader Tilson pledged
to afford ample time for passage Of g
liberalizing Civil Service retirement
measure and with the civil service
committee likely to have two days on
which to work off its bills on the cal
endar. prospects seem very favor
able for early action on the new
measure agreed upon by the special
subcommittee yesterday in executive
session. The full committee is in
complete accord with the provisions
included by the subcommittee. which
were tentatively passed upon in ex-
ecutive session following extensive
hearings.
The maximum annuity Is placed at
81, 200, based on an 81 .svu salary. Re
tirement after 80 years Of service at
the age of SO years for railway mall
clerks, mechanics and laborers, 60
years for other postal employees and
63 years for departmental employees
is provided for in the new bill--after
many wears Of persistent EFFORT to get
these ages accepted.
On reaching the age Of 20 Gov
ernment employe may voluntarily re-
tire after Is years Of service, according
to the new measure.
The amount of retirement pay is to
be computed by taking the annual sal
ary of the employe for 10 years pre-
ceding retirment, multiplying it by the
number of years of service and diVid-
ing the amount by 40.
The maximum amount OF annuity
and the method OF computing the an
nuity have been pretty well agreed
upon between members of both the
House and Senate committees and the
leaders of the employees organizations
for some time.
There has been an earnest effort
made to get retirement automatic at
the end of 80 years service regardless
of age, instead of the 5S-60-62 years
age. as now written into the bill. 1t is
possible that lower age limits may
later be put into the BILL. members Of
the House committee admit, II the cost
figures now being prepared by a board
Of actuaries show that this is feasible.
The House committee has gone
ahead with plans for pressing this lib
eraliZing measure for early action in
the House without waiting for the cost
figures to be submitted by Herbert D.
Brown. chief of the Bureau of Eff.
cheney. 1t is the intention of Chair
man Lehlbach, If he gets these cost
figures in time, to incorporate them in
his report.

This is no college proposition" !"
said Trask, still contemplating the
head in front of him. This is one
of the old red-necked regulars from
the low-brow districts. with n smear
of menial manners. Il Smattering of
experience in the psychopathic ward
and a large bundle of calm assurance
that grew nowhere except in little
New York. To tell you the truth, I
think I'm going to take Il fancy to
this Keeler."
Were almost at the pier said
Trumbull, abruptly.
"F'ine. Signal the driver to stop.
Hop out. Don't be seen with me.
Find your mother, let her see you
aboard and be good little boy. I'll
fix things for the pilot
Trask spoke briskly and authorita-
lively, like a general directing a cam
paign.
Spencer Trumbull. growing be-
cause of the wasted half day that his
mothers bon voyage visit had en-
tailed, was making ready to follow
the pilot. Mrs. Trumbull had not only
stayed aboard until they began to
move the gangplapk. but she had re-
mained on the wharf to wave at her
lugubriOuS son.
"I'll have to take an evening train
now" he protested, looking at his
watch.
TOO late to share the moonlight -
said Trask, grinning up from his
chair. "Never mind, Reddyll hold
the fort for YOU"
"Ive-I've a good mind not to
leave the ship at all

head.
Twenty feet distant. by the ships

almost to the point of sadness. She
was a mute challenge to masculine

laughed Trask. well. you run along
with the pilot, Spence. I'll let you
know all about her when / get home.
Come-don't stare at her. She doesn't
belong to you.''
well, she's not yours, is she?' de-
manded Trumbull.
"Not-yet," drawled the patient.
with a tantalizing smile. but maybe
she'll pity a poor cripple. By-by,
Spence
Trask held out limp hand, but
when Trumbul1 took it he found his
fingers clamped in grip that brought
response in a little howl of pain.
"Confound you" he exclaimed.
First thing you know you'll make q
break and get up and walk. Well. SO
long. Good luckr'
The pilot was waiting for him. and
with a farewell stare at the girl at
the rail, Trumbull was off.
