then pastor of the First Baptist church of New Britain, the men met in the old City Mission every morn ing for prayer.
 Their prayers were not in vain.
 It was on a Sunday evening in 1908. The minister had concluded his evening service and was on his. way home. Patrolman Charles John son. veteran member of the police force, now retired. also had prob lem. He had found three young boys on the verge of starvation. neglec- ted and in rags. They need some one to look after them" said the policeman. All right" said the min ister. ''I'l do It." But" argued the policeman. who knew whereof he spoke. You have family of your own. you cannot afford to take three othens."
 Tt is my Christian duty" replied the minister, "and the Lord will help me provide for them."
 He took them home. Then he found others and took them home. His home soon grew too small and he rented 2 house and hired a housskeeper. Then he rented two houses and finally a third. Now Head Of Institution Today the head of an institution

family sent the money to the Chil- moriam. A New Britain man has purchased and paid for 100 tons of coal every year for 23 years.
 All has not been smooth sailing however. In the early days of the institution. skeptical selectmen wanted to take the children away. They could not understand how the minister of a small parish could adopt flock of orphans.
 But the city never took a risk. No one ever lost a cent.
 Several years ago the pastor re- signed his pulpit to act as superin- nificent brick mansion overlooking a beautiful hilltop. The home is as its name implies a home and not an institution. Visitors are welcome at all times and the sight of the happy. smiling faces of the youngsters. and the delight of the motherly Swedish matrons who mother" them are enough to repay anyone for the time and trouble of visit.
 Educational facilities are provided for those under school age and to supplement- the school work. Recre- ational facilities. including swim ming pool and playground apparatus also are provided. The home aver ages about 125 children. The home in Chicago. started in 1926 accom- modates about a dozen, but already has become too small.

whose real estate value is said to approximate a half million dollars and another institution of the same kind just beginning in the city of Chicago, he has raised and educated in New Britain between zoo and 1000 children during the past e5 years.
 His work attracted the attention of others and aid was not slow in coming. The late Philip Corbin. Sr.. donated $1O,000 to the cause. The ground upon which the institution now stands, in one of the best resi- dential sections of the city. was pur- chased. one group of lots at a time as funds came in. There are nearly 100 building lots included in the Home grounds. In fact. when the city of New Britain carries out the suggested plan of beautifying the lake near the home. Rev. John E. Klingberg, now a D. D.. will donate ground for driveway around the lake.
 The minister superintendent was awarded the degree Doctor of Di- vinity by Bethany college of Kansas six years ago because of his work among the orphans.
 From all parts of the United States comes aid. In South Carolina a woman raises chickens and sells eggs. She keeps the eggs which are laid on Sunday. sells them and sends the money to the Children's Home in New Britain. A man in Oklahoma shot a wildcat on his front porch. He sold the skin for $5 and sent I the check to Dr. Klingberg. In Cali fornia a young man died. He had saved his pennies for 27 years. The

BARSzCz AMBITIOUS TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE.
Aspirant for Council Office Product of Evening Schools

Scarcely able to speak the English language about five years ago. Frank Barszcz, a native of Poland. studied at night school. became a citizen and in the election held last Tues day he was republican candidate for the com on council from the fifth ward.
 He has lived in this city a little more than 10 years. coming here from his native home in Poland. He did not have much education while in Europe. but upon arrival in this city he was seized with . desire to learn. However. the World War occurred about that time and he entered the service.
 When the war ended he still re. tained an ambition to study and en- tered the evening school beginners classes. At that time he could hard- ly speak, read or write the language. Teachers who had him in classes in the beginning found him to be a bright type of a pupil and he de- veloped rapidly. His greatest inter est has been In education and poli- ties and he was student of both.
 The time when interest and edu- cation comes to an end in the lives of most of the evening school pupila is when they succeed in passing the tests necessary to make them citiz' ems. Tn the case of Mir. Barszcz il was the contrary. On account of his service in the war he did not have to pass as rigid test as those wht have no war service. He passed thu tests after he received two years O education, but returned to schoo and received all the education tha could have been obtained in eveninl school. He was graduated two year ago with a perfect attendance mark
 Despite the fact that he was de feated with the other republican candidates in the fifth ward race, h. made a good run and predictions ar being made that in few years h will be one of the leaders in tn Polish republican party.

ON MONDAY FOR
 NEW ENGLAND HOSPITAL
Measure Providing For Million Dol
 lar Structure Up Before
BY GEORGE II. MANNING


 Washington Bureau of the N. B. Herald)
 Washington. D. C. April 14-An attempt will be made next Monday to have the house of representatives act finally on the veterans hospital ization bill, under which Southern New England is to receive 8 sl.0o0.. 900 hospital for neuropsychiatric cases.
 Mrs. Edith Nourse Rogers. Massa- chusetts congresswoman. who is the first woman to take charge of g piece of major legislation on the floor of the house. has obtained con- sent of the speaker to be recognized next Monday afternoon in order that the bill may be brought up un- der suspension of rules. This pro- cedure will preclude amendments from the floor.
 Objection has developed in some quarters to a provision in the bill which authorizes the president by executive order to transfer to the jurisdiction of the Veterans Bureau buildings over which such boards aa the National Home for Disabled Vol unteer Soldiers now have control. II is likely, however. that the house committee on World War Veterans legislation will hold a meeting be- fore next Monday and authorize Mrs. Rogers to report with the bill an amendment nullifying the objec' tionai section Of the measure. The bill authorizes an .appropri ation of $15,000.000 for g. nation wide hospital construction program to begin immediately. No specih' projects are enumerated in the bill but the report accompanying th' measure. which has just been print ed, recommends that $1.000.000 Q this sum be spent in southern Nev England. preferably in Connecticut The recommendation ia moral, binding upon the director of th Veterans Bureau who will hay charge of the building program. N definite site has as yet been recon mended.
 The fight for the southern Ne, England project was led by Con gressman E. Hart Fenn of Wetherz field, Conn.,. a member of the hous committee on world war veteran! legislation. He succeeded in havin the whole committee revise the hos pitalization sub-committee's repoI which did not recommend the prt ject and this action led to the resil nation of Congressman Robert Luc of Massachusetts, as chairman { the subcommittee.

GOOD HARVEST
REPORTS SEND
WHEAT DOWN
September Corn Continued
Tight With Small Rise 2
in Price.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 21.-Bearish sta
tistical conditions ano favorable
harvest reports from Canada sent
wheat lower today on the Board of
Trade. September corn continued
tight with the deferred deliveries
little changed. Oats was down a
fraction.
Wheat opened unchanged to sc
lower, corn was unchanged to &c
up, and oats was off q to &c. PROF.
visions we're unchanged.
Commercial stocks of wheat in
creased 10000, 900 bushels during the
past week. 1t is estimated that the
country now has 27O,000,000 bushels
available for export and carryoWr.
These and other statistics, together
with the fact that the Canadian
crop is beginning to move, have in
clined trading sentiment to the bear
side.
Traders believe the tightness in
September corn will check declines
in the deferred futures. Heavier
arrivals of old corn are expected
when wheat thrashing is completed.
Oats receipts have been heavy at
all terminals. AS the commercial
demand is small, prices have de-
clineS.

MRS. ROBINSON
TO HEAR SMITH
Wins Heart of N. Y. on Way
to Albany.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-"Im not a
society woman nor am I a politi-
cian," Mrs. Joseph T. Robinson, wife
Of Al Smiths running mate on the
Democratic ticket, said here en-
route to Albany for the notification
ceremonies. "One politician is
enough in the family"
There was something so winning
and gentle in the demeanor of the
wife of the vice presidential candi-
date that it suggested that she was
both a social success and a political
asset, despite her disavowal of the
rolese.
Mrs. Robinson has the cleverness
or naivette-it amounts to the same
to claim little for herself or for her
part in the making of nationally
known political figure.
The management of Senator Rob-
fnson's home and the provision of
his comfort and relaxation are her
real hobbies, she says.
When asked if she was surprised
at her husbands nomination for the
vice presidency, Mrs. Robinson an
swered with disarming candor. mo,
I expected it."

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson g. McKinnonl

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-There is
an old statement to the effect that
we can become used to almost any
thing if we have to. This statement
Is pertinent to the stock market at
the present time, FOR we continue
to witness strength where weakness
should be expected because of I'M
satisfactory, if not strained money
conditions. Evidently the public feels
that present money stringency will
right itself in due time; that it will
not be lasting, and that correction
can be brought about without the
necessity of liquidation in the stock
market. At times Monday the mar
ket appeared weak, but review of
price changes at the end of the day
showed more plus than minus signs.
Nevertheless, we know that money
is not available in quantity and it
is our thought that as we get closer
to the end of the month there will
be further stringency. All in all,
therefore, we feel that for the pres
ent the middle of the road policy
is the best.
