HOOVER BOOM IS
 FORMALLY OPENED
Nsv Yort Republicans Would
 Have Him President

New York. Jan. 1s CA cam paign to create sentiment in New York state for Secretary of Con- merce Herbert Hoover for president. has been started by republicans here.
 The move was inaugurated at q conference at the Hotel Roosevelt, at which party leaders representing every section of the state were in at- tendance. Among those participat- ing were Ogden L. Mills, under sec- retary of the treasury. Seymour Iawmon. of Elmira. N. Y.. assistant secretary of the treasury in charge of prohibition enforcement, and Col. William J. Donovan. of Buffalo.
 Although the conference was sup posed to be secret, New York news papers today said that those present stressed the fact that the Hooye supporters wished to avoid makin any contest for delegates to tn, Kansas City convention. This atti- tude. 1t was said. was to avoid con- flict with Charles D. Hilles. vice. chairman of the republican national committee and George K. Morris. re- publican state chairman. who in a recent joint statement said that the states delegation would be unin- structed and unpledged.
 The Hoover campaign, said the newspapers. would merely consist oi disseminating Hoover propaganda. '
 The New York Herald-Tribune to- day said that another meeting will be held within . week, and head quarters of the Hoover-for-p president movement would probably be estab- lished in the city within | month under Richard w. Larence. former republican county committee chair man of the Bronx.

PRIEST HITS CARE
 0F MODERN WOMEN
Missioner Also Cfiticils Intem-
 ptflte Use Of Wine

Rev. Paul Sarusaitis. member of the Marian Order of Mission aries of Chicago, will give series of lectures this week at o'clock in the evening at St. Andrews church. Father Sarusai- tis will be the guest of Rev. Edward V. Grikis during his stay here. He gave . mission at the church last year.
 The Chicago priest spoke at the 10.3O o'clock mass yesterday and expressed himself forcihly on the story of the first miracle of the changing of water into wine at the marriage in Cana of Galilee. He pointed out the object lesson of the story as contained in the days gos- pei and fired a broadside at intem- perance. He called attention to the fact that many people use wine as part of their daily food but stated that others overstep the bounds and use it to excess.
 He unleashed a vitriolic attack against the prevalence of immodes- ty in the dress of women of the day He recounted numerous incidents in Chicago where scantily dressed models appeared in shop windows before crowds of curious onlookers He decried this vogue saying that instead of advertising wearing ap- parel it simply appealed to the baser side of human nature. He de- nounced the brazenness of modern women in their dress and appealed to woma mood in general to insist on modesty in styles.
 He will lecture again tonight at ! o'clock and every other night this week and it is expected that ca- pacity congregations will listen to his discourses.

 Story:

The girl whose menstrual periods ever cause a broken date, simply hasn't heard about Midol. Menstru- ation is natural. But the pain is not!
 Midol will end menstrual pains in five to seven minutes.
 This merciful discovery of the specialists, is not a narcotic. It does nothing to hinder or hasten the pro- cess of menstruatiOn. But 1t does end the painful part: If you antici- pate your time the expected pain will not appear at all. Tiny tablets. in convenient little aluminium case. fifty cents at any drugstore. It h folly to suffer.

SPECIAL TOWN MEETING
 OF REMINGTON VOTERS
Action To Be Taken On Waiting Nurse, Hose For Firemsen
 and School FuDds.

Newington. Jan. ls-A special town meeting will be held next week to take up the matter of hiring a visiting nurse. to vote an appropria- ton to cover the purchase of hose for the Newington Volunteer fire de- rartment and to vote on the question Of the erection of an $S5.000 High school unit at the Center.
 The matter of engaging a visiting nurse has been brought up several times at meetings of the school board. This board has approved the hiring of such a nurse but the matter has never been taken as far as the selectmen. Maple Hill now has an arrangement with tho Visit ing Nurse Association of New Brit ain whereby Q nurse will answer calls in that section. It is . part. time proposition. however, and not designed to be permanent.
 The subject of ire hose will again be brought up at this meeting and in all probability the voters will ap- prove an appropriation sufficient to purchase the hose. There was . large majority in favor of such an appropriation at the annual town meeting in October.
 The plan of the school board whereby an &S5,000 High school unit will be erected at the Center, which has been approved by the school board. is expected to provoke a large amount of discussion and to bring out a large number of voters.
 A meeting of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Grange will be held Thurs 6ay afternoon at the home of Mrs. Charles L. Belden on Main street.
 A whist party will be held at the Grange hall this evening. Mir. and Mrs. Harry Green will be in charge.

it. However, when one observes
the many violations of the rule In con-
tests about the city it is apparent that
accurate knowledge of the rule is not
so widespread. The foul-line rule will
be enforced strictly in The Stars in
dividual championship tournament dur
ing the holidays; so for the benefit of
all bowlers of Washington and vicinity
who are eligible to compete in the event
the rule is given here.
According to the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress, the national gov
erning body of the drive pastime, the
foul-line rule is as follows:
"a player. in delivering the ball,
must not step on or over the line
tthe foul line). nor allow any part
of his body or clothing to touch on
or beyond the line, nor any portion
of his foot to project over the line
while at rest, until after the ball has
reached the pins.
ANY ball so delivered shall be
deemed foul. and the pins made on
that ball, If any, shall be respected"
There you are. If you step over the
foul line or fall over the foul line be-
fore the ball you have just rolled reaches
the pins. any pins you may knock down
may not be counted by you. The pins
toppled by such delivery are spotted
again and you lose a roll So watch
your step in The Star tournament.
Really, it isn't difficult to keep back
of the foul line. With little practice
it becomes instructive with the bowler
to check his stride short of the ebon
stripe across the drive And let it be
said here that woman bowlers are more
careful in their observance of the foul
line rule than man boWlerS. The fair
ones seem to master the knack of

King David owes its present position
largely to Earl Stocking. the veteran
