fireman to be firmly tied therein and thus securely bundled up his form was slowly suspended from the roof and let down to the pavement by means of long rope which is part of the equipment.
 Quite an idea, that; it undoubtod- ly saved injuries to others and pos sibly the life of the fireman.
 The point is that the idea reached town via the last convention of fire chiefs which MT. Noble attended, While there he saw the appliance and heard it's functions explained. When he returned to New Britain it was not long before the local de- partment was equipped with such a bag"
 Similar good ideas are afloat at all conventions. Just now the city is wondering whether Police Chief Hart should be sent to the annual con Nention of police chiefs at Colorado Springs. It would cost the city s4O0. The police chief Of practically every progressive and alert city in the country will be there. New Britain classes itself as such 8 city.
 Ideas arc worth money. The po- lice chief can recognize d good idea when he meets one. He will meet SCOTS Of them at such ConN entlon,

THE MEMORIAL PARADE

A successful parade is one which attracts a large crowd and is an in spiration to those who look on and those who march.
 The Memorial Day parade was sue ceesful. Obviously. it was not perfec- tion, even for moderately long parade; some of the bands and fife and drum corps were too close to- gether for one thing. and not every one entitled to march in 1t was there, Rut the appearance in general must have been gratifying to those in charge and the throngs along the route and commendation and con- graduation are in order.
 The sunny morning brought out a large outpouring of the public and no patriot could regard the event as be- ing of merely routine significance. Memorial Day parades have an in terest for all because of the his toric events they empha size and to the young of tender years, who were not alive when even the last con- tlict took place, they are educational as well. Children. by the way, were plentiful along the route yesterday and the proudest among them were they who could yell to their daddies in the line of march.
 In a Memorial Day parade interest always centers in the remnants of the Union army. The men in blue who rode in automobiles yesterday were not many. Though on in years some of the boys in blue still appear hale and hearty. They now ride in automobiles instead of marching, as they did in the good old days. Re- gardlcss of whether they march or ride. our hearts will be with them always.
 The American Legion was out in strong numbers and made a hand some appearance. The other sections of the parade likewise were snappy and happy. The two bands and two fife and drum corps were busy and were glad of ii.
 Due 10 the peculiar confisuratlon of the downtown streets and the necessity or advisablllty of doubling up on the line Of march, the pub lic with little effort can see such psrades twice, once along the length O, Main street and again along along Main street 10 West Main street. This, of course. is an advan- taEe: a good parade is always worth seeing twice.

THE NAVY PROGRAM AND PEACE NOTES

The administration navy progra m retains its status and can be acted upon at the next session of Con- gress. The program was greatly re- duced during it's dip into Congress sional waters. Secretary Wilbur, pre- sumably with the backing of the ad- ministration, once had fiNe-ycar program for 74 vessels, to cost $780, GOO, ,0oo, This program was given a Barnum and Bailey hulla baloo and it was made to look like the real thing. The navy secretary felt so good over the noise he was making that he explained later that this program Of A ships was only a be- ginning; that what he had in mind was .0-year program to cost s2,- 800, ,o00; and then that would merely be real start for an even finer program.
 The navy secretary, in fact, helped 10 kill off his program by becoming too bombastic. People began to hold up their hands in dismav. domandins 10 know what the navy department was thinking Of and what the world { was coming to in these piping days of peace.
 i The early bill seems 10 have beer a bluff to scare England after the , breakdown" of the Geneva confer. i cnCe on naval disarmament It vii he remembered that the gentlemen at Geneva couldn't agree on parit, for the United States with the Brit leh navy; indeed, they disa greed ol almost everything. If was follovin, this sorry exhibition of disa grccmen that the administration navy pro gram saw the light of day at frs soaring the English considerably bu finally bringing forward inc dcclara ton in London that Great Britail would not change its own program and try to compete.

The Return of the Prodigal


 By J. s, kirchoff
 Jed Greene was known all over Shorewood as the meanest man in town. In his early days he made his money in the banking business. He never drew a check. but generally a sponsibe position. He also held a mortgage on the Crosby homestead.
 Jed Greene was here ter-day," said Mrs. Marty Crosby to Dave, her husband,
 "Spose he wanted tn int'rest, Martyr" growled the old man.
 "Yes, an he says ef We don't pay up by termorrow at nine, he's a. goin' to foreclose. Ye know he did tn same thing to Tub Wilson, But Tub said he'd go to Moo York an try to raise th' money. But Tub fail cd to do it, so he wired Jed Greene Can't raise s2,ooo foreclose. shouldn't think he could" re- piled Dave, "thet's an awful lot tc raise for clothes" All llON HS d llll eoltllto us, wept the little old lady.
 Cut tn ,weepins, Marty" con- soled Dave, arising from his chair indignantly, 'remennber tew-night our dear boy Asa is a-comin tc hum"
 "Our dear boy Asa." repeated Marty.
 Our dear boy Asa" You know he went to Moo York to make his fortune. He's beer away two weeks now an I gues: he's a-made it. Sometimes it takes longer. I'll watch fr him. Davit opened a big door and watched and watched and watched. "Why, Marty, our prayers he' | been answered. think I see Ass a-comin' up tn road now. Yep that's his brown derpy An I know that -stnped suit. An hi light top coat. An those paten | leather shoes, an" | Marty turned and when she sav where David was standing sh' shouted: David. you darn fool Shut that door! Yc're a-standin there a-lookin' into Asa's clothc closet"
 But Asa did come home and Jet 1 Greene did not foreclose the mort gage on the day threatened.
 It was two days later that tn foreclosure took place!
