fierceness OF ethics embodied in
this faith APPEALED highly to the
savage rowing instincts of the
Hedandowie race.
1t is odd that they have not
adopted the habits of vice which
characterize the typical rowing
Arab. This son Of the desert will
we are told, stop at little to amass
wealth or gain power. The He'd
andowie, however, have happily
been untainted by contact with
moderns, and to this NAV he
ascribed their cutting contempt for
the evil practices they see in the
cultured. more progressive classes
of today.
The Hedandowie bothers no one
and is content with his son. his
camel and his wife.

QUESTIONS OF
ETIQUETTE
mrs. Cornelius Beeckman.l
The Maid Of Honor


near MRS. BEEcKMAN:
- Does a bride choose her best
friend as the maid of honor or
does she bestow the honor upon
the groom's sister. if she has no
sister OF her own? E. S.
Usually If the bride has no
sister she has a very close friend
to whom she wishes to give the
honor of being her chief, attend.
ant She should have the friend
who Is closest to her, and should
choose the sister of the groom
only II she also happens to be her
best friend. But the point is that
she does not choose the sister OF
the groom simply because the girl
is the sister Of the groom.

 night by Ernest F. Rogers, present I president of the Connecticut cham 1 Der. at the annual banquet Of the I local organization. MT. Rogers, in
 complimenting the Plainville body
 upon it's work during the past year
 under Mir. Trumbull. said that its

 such that its president was now men | tioned for the higher office and that 1 it was an open secret that he would i receive 1t. Mir. Trumbull is already l a vice president of the state organi- 1 zation.

During the dinner. at which Mrs. Kronholm Of New Britain ca tered, the Nagabonds of Hartford furnished music and there were sew eral numbers by the Plainville High School Glee club. Rev. Austin F.

 ton board" in the center Of the town to welcome strangers to Plain vile and make them familiar with
 the place. It is no discredit to live in a small town, he said, If that town fs a progressive one.
 Henry A. Castle. introduced as "Deacon", was then introduced and took up his duties as toastmaster.

FIERY CROSS SEEN
 ON BERLIN HEIGHT Believed Connected With Gov. Smiths Statement on Religion NO KLANSMEN OBSERVED Legion Ball Jams Grange Hall to Capacity-Athletio Club to Meet to Review Baseball Plans-Play- ground Whist This Evening.

Residents of the northern part Of town were startled last evening to see a huge fiery cross blazing from hill behind the Moorland Farms which lighted Up the surrounding country for many miles and which they thought to be a demonstration by the ku klux klan.
 No klansmen. if 1t was that or ganization which erected the cross. were visible to onlookcrs who flock ed to the scene. Drivers Of cars on Beech Swamp road and streets in the southern part of New Britain hurried to the vicinity in hopes Of witnessing a klan ceremony. but early arrivals found only the blazing cross which was approximately 20 feet high and which burned for about half an hour.
 At about y:10 o'clock the New Britain police department was nott- fled that forest fire was raging be- hind Moorland Farms, the person calling evidently mistaking the burning emblem for brush fire. The New Britain department, not receiving any word from town off, cials, notified the fire department in that city which held it's trucks in readiness. Fire Warden Lewis A. Griffith was not warned. nearby res idents evidently deciding that the cross offered no menace to a pos sible brush fire. The scene Of the fire was we'll cleared of brush and no immediate danger of spreading was possible.
 It is rumored that the ceremony was the result of the statement by Governor Al Smith of New York.
 Baseball Team Prepares.
 The newly formed Berlin Boys baseball team is engaged in recon tiitioning the baseball diamond To- cated behind the Warrington Con- munity house and in rounding out its players for the season opener.
 The team has received its uni forms obtained by popular subscrip- tion, and practice has been going on for the past three weeks. The boys comprising the team hope to put the Worthington Ridge district on the baseball map and will doubtless enter the American Legion league. Considerable material for first class baseball squad has been re- cruitcd from the younger residents of the ridge district and they should give the other teams of the league q stiff battle for honors.
 Favor Meeting.
 Popular opinion seems to favor the calling of special town meet ing for the purpose of voting on the proposed fire department question. Opponents state that New Britain is offering the town experienced scrv- ice in fire protection and that the charge of calling is offset by the service offered. They state that in- experienced men on local depart ment truck would not be as eff cient as the present service. The Op- position includes many prominent men as does the side favoring the installation of a local department. The reduction in insurance rates is the Legion's trump card. the classes h rating being reduced consider
