The sincere loss that was felt by

that he had doubtlesly answered
the call Of the Great Magician at
the very height OF his unusual
talents and also that the secrets of
his remarkable feat as had passed
with him and could never again be

The latter fear however. II not
known to be unfounded for with the

MANS EFFORT TO KEEP
STEP WITH NATURE

The more we see of manmade con-
traptions to conquer natural limita-
lions the higher we regard Nature.
Some of our greatest accomplish
ments were provided by an all-benef-
icent nature ages before the human
race had progressed beyond the stone
age. Even yet We are so far behind
nature that some of it's everyday
manifestations are vainly awaiting
reproduction by the manifold min
ions of our scientific age.
There is the science OF flying, for
instance. 1t is a bromide to refer to
the fact that birds developed flying
ages ago. Either they were built that
way in the first place or they We're
animals that evolved wings after be-
ing land animals; but in either case,
they got there; i. e.. they are ami
mails that can fly better than man
can with his machines.
Man has expended much energy in
perfecting machines that can sink
under the water; and when all is
said, they are far less at home there
than whale or other fish. Either one
subscribes to the notion that fish
were constructed in the first place to
fit into their element, or that they
evolved from animals that originally
were forced to hug the shore. But in
either case. no submarine or other
vessel has been construction per
haps ever will be-that so splendidly
fits into the watery element.

VICTORY AGAINST ODDS

Few thought the aple lootpdl
players OF the New Britain high
, would trim their rivals OF long stand
ing this year. The odds, if any were
given. seem to have been IN the
neighborhood OF to l against them
Obviously, the local boys themselves
did not share this feeling of pessl-
'mism: that would have been fatal to
success. They took to the grldiron
confident OF victory, as every eleven
worth its salt does before the show
down, But the general public was
not oyer-confidcnt. They had read
that the LEGAL boys were considerably
lighter than their adversaries; and
there was the drawback of being
forced to play in enemy territory and
listen TO the gibes of the Hartford
rooters packing the stands 1t looked
hopeless to many Of us. Yet how
1loriously did the lads from 'he
vicinity of Franklin Square do their
stuff! Such victory was scarcely
ever won by the eleven of the school.
We looked at piece of the goal
post Saturday evening, and though
It will not be framed on account OF
Its cumbersome size, it will be put
where every glance in the future
years will remind OF the glorious
day.
This victory was so outstanding
that it ought to melt even the oppo-
sition of the mayor against construct
ing the much mooted addition to the
high school. A student body with
such a team is entitled to more
room without further quibblng.
