A WISE POLICY

The valuable results of the wise
constructive program of the city
council for the improvement OF
the city are becoming more and
more apparent every day. Con
tractor Olson has practically COM
pleted the work of grading and
surfacind with gravel II block OF
Main street. and local citizens and
all who kave occasion to use the
street have begun to rejoice. Ger
tain spots must be leveled up with
more gravel and a vast amount OF
dragging and planking must be
done during the packing process.
Rains. also, will be necessary to
complete the work of giving firm
ness to the surface. But the won
derfuI improvement is already
plainly to be seen. The council
and the contractor are entitled to
high praise. Contractor Olson
deems it inexpedient to attempt
work on the remainder of the
streets until after the stampede.
Another excellent piece of work
ordered by the council is the push
ing back of the great heaps of
rubbish from the ground on which
it was encroaching near the old
cemetery. This has been little
short of a disgrace for several
years. and the betterment should
be thoroughly appreciated. The
lump ground still covers too much
space, but a great Improvement
mas been made.
The latest job attempted to i'm
prove the appearance of all the
streets is the job of cutting the
luxuriant CROP of weeds and grass
in the parking strips and many
other places. This is no small
Job. but policeman Stanley is
pushing the work. Considering
relatively small cost it would
be difficult to suggest anything
hat could be done that VIII so
improve the general ap-
,earance of the town. The cult
ny of the weeds and grass is
omething that has been very
ften neglected in the past, and j
is we'll that the officials recog- {
ize the need of attending to the J
,ork this year. $

ton of the Commissioner Of Indian
Affairs that no application for re-
appraisement involving Fort Peck
Indian lands be considered unless
filed in this Office on or before

were sold and the money credited
to the fund. Another letter brought
four cents in postage stamps to
pay for a paper the writer had
p%urloined from the Congressional
library.
One remorseful man or woman,
living in Washington, is repaying
his debt on the installment plan,
sending in one dollar bills regu-
larly each month. His envelopes
are addressed to A. w. Mellon,
Secretary of the Treasury. Inside
is the one dollar bill and the two
words conscience fund.-" scrawled
on a strip of paper. Recently en-
ployees at the Treasury received
five dollar note from the same
contributor, apparently, and they
are wondering if the account is
closed. The installment plan has
been utilized for the purchase of
every article under the sun, but
never before to relieve the con-
science, it is believed.

Not always are the Treasury
vaults utilized to safeguard the
currency, the gold and silver re
serve of the nation.
Twenty small parcels of cotton
recently were taken under guard
and locked in the nations vaults.
They are the standard cotton sam
pies by which the cotton of the
world is graded and sold. The sam
pies were chosen by a special on
ference of delegates from all cor
ners of the world, which meets ev-
cry two years to renew them. 9th
erwise the cotton would deterior-
ate.
Each parcel contains the stand
ard quality of cotton for a particu-
lar grade. There are twenty
grades of cotton recognized in the
market, and each parcel contains
a sample of each grade. They are
called 'key sets" by which the en-
tire cotton industry will be guaged
during the next two years.
Sixty additional sets were made
up for the visiting delegates to
garry with them back TO their
home countries. Each duplicate
was carefully matched with the
master sets stored n the vaults
of the Treasury.

One of the inmates of Mt. Alto
hospital, haven for those broken IN
body and spirit in the Great War,
likes to relate a shrewd psycholo-
gical trick employed by him while
scouting in front of the enemy
trenches.
He knew little German, but ne
made particular effort to learn the
word silence" in that language.
This one word he wrote in large
letters on a piece of board about
two inches by six.
One dark, deadly night, When the
flash of an occasional shell was
the only light available, he was
challenged by a German sentinel.
A lowered bayonet was only inches
away from his chest.

in front of his eyes," says the sol
dier. by the light Of a star smell
he read it, and he let me pass.
That sign saved me from many
ticklish places, and / carried IL
back to the United States with me.

The annual East Berlin Com

Of July, had its fore and aftermath
OF casualties last Saturday when
about $50 East Berlinites motored
to Hotchkiss Grove, Branford, where
they were the guests Of Mr.. and
Mrs. r. O. Clark at their cottage.
The start was made from Commun-
tty hall at $3.50 o'clock and the pro-
ces.ion OF rs cars and three trucks
got under way without accident. A
stop was made in Durham when two
cars had blow outs. and the brake
lining on the heavy truck caught
fire. This was soon extinguished.
The real serious accident Of the
day occurred this side of Guilford
when q sedan driven by Eltjo Ensing
crashed into a tree. The machine
was filled with women and children.
The young son Of Mr.. Ensing was
seriously hurt receiving a cut over
the bridge Of his nose and a cut
entirely across the right eyelid sew
erinx the muscle of the lid and IN
addition a laceration Of the scalp.
The boy was catapulted into the
windshield, his head crashing
through up to his shoulders. He
managed to extricate himself and
fell out through the fore door. NO
one else In the car was injured.
Young Ensing was taken to Guilford
by Fred Kahms and the father.
There being no physicians available
the boy was taken to the Gullford
sanitarium where first aid was ad-
! ministered. He was later removed
to the Middlesex hospital where 1T
was FIRST reported that he had
sustained a fractured skull. 1t was
announced at the hospital today that
the x-ray did not reveal fracture.
The car was badly wrecked, the
radiator, tenders and three wheels
being damaged beyond repair. That

car was towed to garage in Gull
