Elmer w Pape, whose silhouette appeared in the paper-the New Britain Herald-the evening of July 3, certainly can pat himself on the back, for he has plenty of friends who could not refrain from writing in about him. One wag wrote an attempted witty letter in to Mir. Pape in the hope that they would get together on it. If they ever do. there will be some news about Ed in the Herald which will be far from pleasant. As Miss Frances G. Creams letter is more than complete, the editor will pub fish it without any more ado. What? Oh. yes. indeed, the editor will give the dollar to Tom any time he wishes to step across the street and get it, Here's the letter:
 'The silhouette in last nights Herald is that of MT. Elmer w. Pape, president of Adkins Printing company.
 'Mr. Pape resides at 94 Robbins avenue, Maple Hill, with his wife and four children. He was a mem- Der of the Connecticut legislature of 1925 and past president of the kiwanis club. He is a member of the New Britain Rife club. the Aziz Grotto and also q member of the New Britain Fish and Game club.
 He spends great deal of his spare time at his cottage at Point O'Woods Beach. His favorite pastime is sports. All sports lovers know or know of Mr. Elmer w. Pape."
 Who is he tonight? His business is connected with the arts and ar tistic ability. He interprets artistic thoguhts into something tangible.
 Speaking of art reminds the edi- tor of that beautiful painting in 1 Berlin, Germany. It shows an in nocent little child of four years smacking her lips and holding aloft
  foamy beer. She is about to drink it, which makes the one looking at it say 10 himself, thank goodness, it's hard to get near-bear in Ger many. The title of the picture is Kind Nit Beer" and the color scheme is so severe, thus depicting the mental process of the painter, who certainly did deviate from the old school of German painters who were at loggerheads with each other at that particular era of dominant sets of painters. Of course, it wasn't the beer which attracted the editor. it was the thought prompting the idea of such an ar tistic venture.
 Now that we have had our little fling at art. we must go back to

aids have determined is essential to
prevent another failure such as
overwhelmed the Coolidge confer
ence in Geneva in 1927.
These conferences are to continue,
although all will not occur under the
White House roof. Wednesdays
breakfast meeting with the Presi-
dent was inspired by Stimson upon
receipt of dispatches from Am
bassador Charles G. Dawes.
Great Britain, the United Press is
informed, has shown anxiety to
examine the Hoover -yardstick" or
formula for comparison between the
United States and the British
navies.
In proposing naval reduction to
the world last spring, Hoover
suggested each naval power should
devise its own formula for COM
parison and that these finally be
compared in an effort to obtain a
compromise method of measurement.
This suggestion has not yet been
complied with. While naval techni-
clans in five capitals presumably
compiled data, Britain announced
acceptance of the American prin-
ciple of parity. Disagreement, which
appears so far to be of minor ma
tllre. exists in Washington regard
ing the definition of parity.
