BERLIN'S SCHOOL PROBLEM
 REMAINS

Tine town of Berlin remains con- fronted with it's major issuc-the need for providing enough room thin it's own confines for it's own school pupils, including those in the higher grades. -..,.. ,.,......
 In the lons run this will be a good lesson 10 learn. New Britain. too, was once short on available school space, and it was only after the expenditure of considerable money and the problem was solved. Incidentally, it's solving caused con- siderable Disagreement as to methods, but as it was necessary 10 achieve the needed result, discussion was cut short by the Board of Edu- cation and action substituted. As a consequence, we have more and bet ter schools than ever before, arc proud of them but have not too much room.
 Plainyillc, went through tho same travail. Now it is Berlin's turn. 1t may hurt to issue the bonds, and it may be difficult to coinc to an agreement, but it has to be done.

HIGH LIFE IN BOSTON

On occasion we have taken the opportunity to refer to underworld conditions in Boston; not through practical experience, but because any person having had more than a speaking acquaintance with the town would realize that things have been pretty wide open in the burg,
 The Garrett hearings have been an eye-opener. The Boston papers have screamed with loud headlines at the daily revelations. Finally il has come to testimony that the po- lice carefully permitted dives to operate and nothing was done until L. $. agents took a hand.
 Some time ago Plain Talk had 2 nifty article entitled "Bawdy Bos- ton," and the author was asked to call, which he~did. But he was not asked to testify after it became known he would incriminate men high in the city's life. He was left to depart for other likely places for his inquisitorial penchant.
 As city where Puritanism start ed, Boston has grown into quite q t,, that goes with the term.

years to build this ship. Meanwhile ! there is the likelihood that the Europa will possess the blue ribbon of the oceans for at least three and possibly four years more.
 And also meanwhile, there will doubtless be other plans made by other shipping companies. Within five years it is entirely likely that the running time between New York and Europe will be reduced to with in close proximity to four days flat.
 The promised speed for the new Cunarder is barely two knots faster than that of the Europa; but in or der to attain it an astonishing in- crease in horsepower and machinery is necessary One naturally concludes that the point where economical operation of the fast liners ends may soon be reached,

IMAGINATION POLITICS,

The Boston Herald takes a neat crack at vaccination politics. as practiced on Beacon Hill-as else where.
 It appears that last year the Mas sachusetts Senate passed a bill for compulsory vaccination in private as well is in public schools. This year the Senate, essentially the same in membership, threw the bill out by a vote of 23 to 5. Was that reversal due to any discovery of new facts?" asks the Boston editor. NO. Did that about face reflect the deep convictions of the men whotdid the voting? Not at all. It merely meant that their own notions of the best way to insure their political security appeared to make it eXpedient for them to vote as they did,"
 That isn't all. The bill passed the House handsomely in 1929 and in 1880, but last year it failed at the last moment in the enactment stage This year it didn't even go that far
 It appears that a barrage of let ters from conscientious objectors' was levelled at the Senate. If we exempt people from health law on conscientious objector grounds, Il opines the Boston paper, what be- comes of the public safety?" Ther closes with the following climax:
 Medical scientists are almost 8 unit for vaccination. History demon strates how vaccination has deliver ed the race from an age-old scourgc One thing history does not do ir this: It offers no evidence that the conscientious objector cannot catcf and carry smallpox as readily as anybody else.'

BOOMING TO TERMS WITH ULTIMATE THINGS"
 Ne6ncSday

Accepting the Years" " SCRIPTURE
 Memory Verse: "That we may rejoice and be glad all our days" (Psalm 90:14.
 Read: Psalm 30:10-17. MEDITATION
 It is easy to rejoice and be glad in youth. It is not 50 easy as ones age comes stealthily upon one. There is a common reluctance to face age. This at. titude is designed to destroy the joy that age should bring. Tho wiser way is to accept age when it comes and find its joys. Each period of life has its own sat- isfactions to bring and it's own contributions to make. There are greater activities than physi- cal ones. To grow old grace fully is sign of the youthful spirit, for tlot spirit is one of hopefulness. The best way to keep young, both in feeling and appearance, is to believe in the peculiar value of each success sive period of life as it comes, and to look for it.
 PRAYER
 o God of the seasons, Thou giver of days and years, we witt ness Thy providence in the com- ing of ever marvellous times in the hurrying calendar of our lives. For the fruits and colors of our own autumn days accept our thanks and may there be no sadness in our hearts at the de- parture of our spring and sum- ner. Amen-Adapted.

Humanitarian citizens will be glat

Humanitarian citizens will be glad to note that Alderman Talk has done something to prevent unfortunate dogs in the dog pound from strangling themselves with the chains. The city recently improved the dog pound, but there was not enough money appropriated to pro- vide cages. We hope that some day such a minor municipal function as having the dog pound properly equipped will be fully achieved. There is as saying, "as in little things, so in big" But if the big af- fairs connected with the city were looked after no more efficiently than this small thing the situation would be bad indeed.
