Honeymoon Near lodge.

A young couple from Nebraska. Just
married, have set the fashion of tbs
Coolidge honeymoon" They are
living in log cabin within half q
mile of the game lodge.
1--WE thought 1t good idea to start
right, and what better way 70 start in
married life than within sight Of the
Summer White House," said thik
bridegroom. Frank l.. Sveska OF
Omaha. Nebr., who is in the insurance
business.
Sveska was married last Thursday
in Omaha to Miss Helen Schwager of
the same city. She is an attractive
little brunette and with her husband
went out for a walk this morning to
see the President and Mrs. Coolidge.
They came to the Black Hills by au-
tomobile. The Sveskas have letters
Of introduction to Col Startling of the
Secret Service. who helped them Sc
cure their home in Grace Coolidge
Canyon. The Black Hills constitute a
territory for hOneymOOners, but the
ma jority of them motor on through
the rugged scenery to Rapid City,
Deadwood or Hot Springs.
New Dog Arrives.
The white collie which was sent To
Mrs. Coolidge by Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Scrip of Michigan, to take the place
of Prudence Prim, the White House

hyy

very sure Mrs. Coolidge would be
happy when he returned to the lodge
with it, The collie arrived with the
name OF Diana Wildwood. but it is
not known whether Mrs. Coolidge
would make a change.
California For Coolidge.
Mr.. Arnold said that while he has
always been opposed 10 anything
bordering on Government control or
regulation, e is now convinced that
it is necessary in the case of America s
oil. because, as he expressed it. this
important industry will not regulate
itself.
1t was Mr.. Arnold. as chairman of
the Los Angeles County Republican
committee, who directed the 1924
primary fight which resulted in Mr..
Coolidge carrying California against
Senator Hiram Johnson. lie said to-
day, that Senator has slipped badly"
in the State and was not expected TO
come up for reelection next year. Sem
timent of the State generally favOrs
another term for President Coolidge.
To those who raise the third term
cry" he said. the question is usually
asked: Would you mind third term
of prosperity"
All groups of the Republican party
in California. including the Hiram
Johnson faction, are united in favor
ing President Coolidge's reelection,
Mr.. Arnold said. The prosperity which
comes To California reflects National
prosperity, he explained.

serVa tism are what make the demand ,
for his reelection" he said.

SCHOOL FOR POLICE
 CAN'T WORK MAGIC
Human Element Greatest Factor
 in Efficiency Of Patrolmen

If single member Of the police department is made more efficient through the course Of study pre- scribed by the board of police con- missioners, the heads of the depart ment will feel that the time and effort put into the venture will have been justified. But they do not hes ltate to conCede that there is much about the duty of policemen that must Of necessity be beyond the reach Of the best professors obtain able, and upon the individual off cers themselves must depend the de- gree of proficiency attained in the work that is represented in actual situations as they come up in the every day assignments faced by the men in blue.
 Already the policemen have been called upon to answer questions evolved upon the rudimcntary uuali- Ncations for membership in the de partment. They have had impressed upon them that immediately upon being assigned to a beat they should acquaint themselves with the loca- ton Of fire and police signal boxes, telephones, stores, etc, in the par tcular district included In the beat. and that they must also make 1t their business to learn the names

| ment Of men engaged in higher oc- equations, the work of the police
 department is rapidly becoming Of such nature as to require a more
 generous application of brains than
 was the case a decade ago, when
 brawn was more desirable in a blue coat.
 The automobile is one of the prin- clpal causes of the increase in the demand for brainy officers. The every day run of accidents and col lisions of minor importance demands little more than time. but the trac- Ing Of stolen cars and familiarity with the numerous laws regulating the ownership and operation of mo- tor vehicles, are features which call for intelligent attention.
 Trained Criminal Hunters Needed
 The criminal investigation field, too, Is considerably larger and more important than formerly, and train cd men are ever in demand. Ere quenty. the activities of criminals in cities considerably smaller than New Britain, neCessitate the spend ing of large sums Of money and great amount of time and effort, and where state laws and local ordi- nances are interwoven with federal regulations, as is not infrequentIv the case, situations are created which cannot be easily tossed aside if they are to be handled with cred 1t 10 the department having charge ot the investigation.
 In the past ten years. numerous policemen have found themselves peculiarly adapted to traffic direc- ton. something which called for lit tie attention short time ago. In many of the large cities. schools arc maintained for the instruction of traffic officers to the exclusion of all other features Of police work. Men are sent to cities having well systems Of traffic control. 10 observe the management Of sitlI- auons created by peculiar topogra- phy and the lessons they learn are transmitted 10 others in the depart mcnt so that the cities standing the expense Of sending men may receive

MAPLE HILL SCOUTS
 BUILDING OWN HOME
Boys Even Putting Fireplace in
 Future Headquarters

Boy Scout Troop 6, located in Maple Hill, will shortly become the first troop in the New Britain coun- : Gil to have a meeting place which . It can truthfully and whole hearted- ly call it's own. for the mem bers of thls troop are now engaged in erect Ing d building with their own hands. hlS troop. formerly known as Troop Of Newington. is scoutmastered by ! pr. Leon E. Dary. It recently re- ceivcd permission to build on the cellar of an old house which had been torn down, and now the boys are spending their free moments orliing on their future home.
 Above this cellar, which was To- rttcd on Golf street, have arisen the four walls of one-room build ing, and the floor has been laid. The structure has reached the stage where the next step will be the put ting in of the doors and windows, and Scoutmaster Dary has high hopes of having the roof put on and made weathcr-tight with tar paper
 
 >the single room is q stone fireplace. around which the scouts will gather this winter for many good times which they will remember for years to come, while additional warmth will be furnished by a stove.
 The scouts are receiving backing from various individuals in the com munity. II. l.. Erwin contributed a large portion of the lumber which Eas been used, while William F. Middlemas has promised to furnish the necessary builders hardware. One sizoablc cash donation has been received from Mrs. Jonathan Hart and others have been promised.
 The new clubhouse, it is antici- pated. will prove Of great benefit to the Maple Hill troop. During the past year the scouts have been forced. by lack of any other meet ing place. 10 hold their weekly ses- Sions at the home of Dr. Dary, and it has been impossible 10 do much active scoutwork in 9 private home. The new clubhouse will provide ample scope for the various phases of scouting and for games. while it will also furnish a place where the scouts are absolutely their own masters and will not be interfered with by having their meeting place used for other purposes.

GLEN APARTMENTS
 OPENED ID PUBLIC
Modern Residences Ready for h. Spection by Home Seekers

With the opening Of the Glen Apartments today, New Britain's apartment property will receive a great advance in architectural beau lS. lengthy step in progress has been made with the completion of the building and considerable inter- est has surrounded the apartment building as it has gradually taken form during the past months The announcements of it's opening on October 22 will doubtlessly attract 8 large attendance of apartment owners.
 The Glen Apartments beauty in large measure is due to the period of architecture chosen. being built In the Spanish Renaissance style Of architecture. Travertine stone cecorates the entrances and hall ways throughout the building. An automatic elevator takes the resi- dents of the building from the meg zanlne 10 the desired floor landing without the necessity Of the services of a lift operator. The elevator it. self IS in harmony with the style of architecture, being finished in bronze of a superior type Of craft manship.
 Each apartment is divided into three spacious rooms and a bath room, making 9. complete unit in itself. The unusual and diverting feature which does away with mo- notony often found in similar apart ments is the wall decoration of Tex tone. tinted texture, each apart ment having a different color from it's neighboring unit.
 Bedrooms and living rooms are well lighted by two or three large windows. The bedroom includes in it's many facilities, a full length mir TOT, concealing the door 10 the bathroom. The bath is tiled over floor and walls and includes q shower, built in tub. medicine cabi net and accessory fixtures. Plumb ing and lighting fixtures have been chosen with great care to core spond to the general style of the building.
 The living room can be used as q dining room and is admirably suited for this purpose. Three large windows insure ample daylight, a bullt-ln recess marks the location of the telephone, adequate plug-in sockets for electrical appliances are seen about the room and the fix lures combine with the wall decora- tons 10 make the room especially attractive.
 French doors separate the living room from the most modern of kitchens. This room has included all the efficiency of this inventive age. ! An electric refrigerator. an electric :, cooking range, an adequate china ! cabinet. wide pantry shelving and q powerful exhaust fan, designed 10 carry off the slightest trace of cooking odors. range themselves equally Tn the housewife's affections. i Floors and walls of the kitchens are . tiled.
 Closet space, the buga boo Of so many apartments, has been amply provided for. The foyer hall. the en- 1 trance 10 each apartment, the living room and the bedroom all have their

board, showing the various kinds Of ! knots which a scout must be able to 1 tie, has been prepared. and several ! scouts have been securing the coun- | tryside for various kinds of native
 wood to be used i'll forming col , lection. This will be in accordance with the desire of Scout Executive Oscar A. Erickson for more atten- i ton to handicraft and similar pro- jects whereby visible symbols of the
 work done by the local scouts may be constructed and made available for exhibition and propaganda pur- poses.
 Scoutmaster Dary has Charles Baisden as an assistant scoutmaster, and John Darling is taking out a warrant as junior assistant scout master. Ellsworth Griffin is senior patrol leader of the troop. the pa trol leaders are Graham Dary. and Arvid Erickson, and Frederick Ames Is scribe and David Erwin t1A1surer. The troop has 25 members and three cubs. The troop committee is com posed of Harry H. Howard, Delbert K. Perry, Jonathan Hart. Carl E. Erickson, and H. E. Erwin.
 So far as Is known, no local troops have ever before attempted to build permanent homes for them selves, although several have made or started to make cabins in the woods as goals on their hikes. Troop :. sponsored by the American Le- zion, has one of these at present A number of years ago Troop of the Center Congregational church at tempted to construct a log cabin in Forestville, but the effort resulted in Gilbertian failure. The troop had received permission to build from the owner Of a piece Of prop erty. After several weeks of hard work in winter snow and sleet- storms the scouts proudly saw their cabin attain the height of the shoul- ders. Then came complete disap- pointment. for they found they had been cutting down trees on one mans land, dragging them across the land of the one who had given them permission 10 build, and erect ing their cabin on third persons property. The project was abandon ed.
 The woods about New Britain are dotted with small cabins and Iean-tos built by scouts qualifying for the pioneering merit badge, but these are individual accomplish ments and not troop projects in any way.
 In the Middletown council. which has under it's jurisdiction the whole Of Middlesex county. the making of troop homes has been carried out with great success. Practically every troop in the council has built it's own meeting place. Those troops with sound institutional backing are all lowed to own these places in their own right, but others which are not so certain Of long life are required to deed their meeting places to the council. This is to prevent the cab

 Must Meet Emergencies
 Nobody having the interests Of the police department at heart and bear ing in mind that the general wei fare Of society is closely dependent upon the efficiency Of the police, will doubt the propriety Of the les sons sketched above. but the com. missOners and the chief Of the de partment are wise in remembering that there are situations which patrolmen are likely to confront the very first day Of their connection with the department. and for which precedent may be lacking. Granted that there are features and details surrounding practically every case coming to the police attention which closely resemble those Of other cases that have gone before. it is true nevertheless that oftentimes there are circumstances which crop up en- Nrely without precedent, and when a police officer meets them he must solve them as best he can, without the aid of a text book or a manual. and with no instructor to reason out the method Of approach.
 The police school should be sue cessful in the opinion of the com mission"rs and Chief Hart, who realize that while policemen should not be expected to possess the in- telligence and educational develop

 Of the major rooms are covered with Gold Seal' battleship linoleum 1 and thoroughly waxed.
 The roof of the building has it's 1 attractive solarium measuring 70 | by 4o, hung with drapery and fur
 hshed Tn wicker where guests of the building may enjoy the sunshine so many apartment owners miss. 4 porcelain drinking fountain is in stalled at the right of the entrance to the solarium and around the out side Of the glass, enclosed with four foot wall which insures safety to little playing feet. is a healthy playground for the children of the house.
 The heating apparatus of the building. located in the cellar, in cludes a 1900 gallon tank, capable of supplying a continuous flow of hot water. a double Gil burner which sends a vapor heat to the 2S apart ments and the solarium, making the roof-top rest room adaptable throughout the entire year.
 A battery of electric washing ma chimes located at the farther side of the cellar, stand ready for wash day, accompanied by an electric flat work ironing board and the newest idea in drying equipment, a patented gas drier.
 Owners of the Glen Apartments have announced several unusual features which have made the apart ments still more desirable. Elcc;ri- city is furnished free; bulbs are free; heat is furnished; hot water is furnished: floors are waXed by the management; maid service will he furnished regularly: laundry equip ment is furnished for the residents convenience: automatic package and mail boxes are provided for each apartment; a vacuum cleaning system and incinerator service is provided. The solarium. of course, with it's so many inviting features, will be available to all residents without added expense.
 The building is absolutely sound proof and has been ranked by in Nestigating fire insurance inspectors as being one of the safest buildings ever inspected in this city.
 The official opening Of the Glen Apartments will take place on Sat urday and Sunday. October 22 and 23. An invitation to the public has been extended by the management to view the latest addition to New Brtain's apartment property. Fred O. Rackliffe, the owner. will person. ally manage the new building.

 Since the abolishment of civil service regulations in the fire and police departments several years ago there has been nothing of a compet- itive nature in the departments, with the exception Of pistol practice in the police department, and 1t is ex- Dected that the examinations to be held in the police school will be productive of friendly spirit of ri valry which in itself should not be feared either by the commissioners. the chief or the men.
