TORRINGTON HAS
 NEW TAX TANGLE
Bonding Company Cancels Its
 Contract Due to Shortage

Torrington. Sept. 2s-When the s60,o00 annual bond of William F. Newport, tax collector. was can celled by the American Surety com pany on the grounds that there are s32,o0o outstanding in uncollected taxes, which he has been unable to pay into the treasury this month as required by the city charter, an un- usual situation was disclosed.
 Under the Torrington charter, which is unusual in this respect, all taxes of the current list in the first district must be paid by the collec-' tor to the city treasurer by the first Monday of September. There are usually some taxes which the collec- tor is unable to collect by the date and the custom is for him to bor row funds at per cent from a bank to make up the deficit and pay off the indebtedness, for which he is liable. He charges 9 per cent on these delinquent taxes. This year, however, tile lda COlIeCIof NdS uii- able to get loan at any of the banks and wrote to the city council asking that the time be extended.
 Council decided it lacked power to grant a period of grace and the extension was refused.
 After the first Monday in Septem- Der the city found itself lacking S32,- 900 in taxes and asked the bonding company to make good. Instead of doing so it has cancelled it's bond claiming it understood that it was a guaranty against theft or embez- clement only The general consen- sus here is that the bonding con- pany will make good on it's bond rather than take the case to court, and will then set out to get its money by cleaning up the unpaid tax bills

THE MARRY
GO-ROUND
BY Helen Rowland.

LOvers-and Others
DEFORE marriage, q girl
ID closes her eyes when a man
kisses her. After marriage, she
has to close them when he for
gets to kiss her.
Considering all the kisses
that are freely passed around
in the world today, you'd fancy
that girl could afford to be
fastidious and take her choice,
instead of feeling that she has
to accept any old brand that
is offered her.
The happiest day of a mod
ern fathers life is that on
which he can hand his daugh-
ter over to a strong, pure,
sweet young man who will
break her Of her wild ways and
make a WOMAN of her!
Forty-five is the age of
awakening, at which a man
suddenly discovers that, if he
wants to be popular with the
younger women, he will have to
stop playing the role Of Romeo
or Don Juan and begin play
ing the role of Santa Claus.
When q man can't remem-
ber your address by heart, and
calls you by one of the old
stock pet-names, you are meraly
a telephone number in his con-
sciouSneSs, dear heart.
Alas, a mans love is no
longer measured by his atten-
tionS, his flowers or his tender
ness, but by the amount of
gasoline he will waste on you
and the wear and tear on your
lipStick.
No man ever realizes how i'll
he is until he sees a clinical
thermometer in the nurses
hand; nor how much in love
he Is until he sees the love
light in a rivals eyes.
Clinging Vine: A woman who
permits a man to think that
he is having his own way,
while she gently holds his nose
to the grindstone.
Death has been called 1.-THE
Great Adventure" - but the
GREATEST adventure is mar
riage, when we swing off into a
new life, under the ether of
