C0RBlN|TES FROL|C AT YEARLY OUTING
35O Enjoy Barbecue and Sports
 Program at Comp0unce

The largest crowd ever 10 attend a r. x F. Corbin outing. gathered at Lake Compounce Saturday. as guests of the company. About 350
 office workers and forcmen and 1 their wives or husbands enjoyed a program of sports in the field fol- lowed by q ba1becued sheep dinner
 In order that the crowd attend ing the outing might also witness the baseball game in which the Cor bin team was scheduled to play the Gas and Electric Co, team of Stam- ford for the state industrial league championship, the offices and fac tory were dismissed at 9:45 q. m. Activities began at Compounce at l0:l5 with annual baseball classic between the office and factory teams. The office team was victori- ous by the unusually close score of i 10 0 after a terrific 5 inning struggle.
 II. C. Barnes was in charge of the field events and some novel and thrilling contests were arranged. In the pitch and catch contest for ladies, in which q small and elusive wooden ball attached to a string is tossed into the air and must be caught in a small cup on the end of a stick, Miss Ruth Duntz was win ner of the first prize. There was a triple tie for second prize which was finally won by Miss Catherine Damico.
 One of the most amusing contests was the stake race. the object of which is 10 run to a low stake driven into the ground, place one band upon the stake and run around It gwen number of times and re turn to the starting point The re- t"rn was the big difficulty for every one and many of the contestants gave splendid impression of the Shamrock" doing q sharp star board tack with a final, desperate llngc at the finish line. Miss Hazel AtWater was fastest among the ladies with Helen MClchan a close second, John Marine was first in the race for men and Fred Keme- tck second. The pillow fight for men furnished roars of laughter as tn" gladiators, astraddlc a slippery pole, pounded each other from all angles. Maurice Barrangon was successful in dismounting all corners ard was awarded first prize. Earl Pagan took second.
 Other events and their winners were:
 Quoits: Larry Henncssey and Louis Barber first place; Bert Cole man and George Savicki. second. Ii'lmpty-dumpty golf Mrs. Walter HauSmann, first, and Miss Gladys Rau, second.

 Mrs. Creecy was barely alive in a Washington hospital this morning Blood transfusons had been resorted to, but little hope was held for her recovery.
 Police at first believed the officer struck his wife with the hatchet as she lay on her bed and, believing her dead, had shot himself. No motive could be discovered.
 Found in Pool of Blood
 Mrs. CrecCy was found in a pool of blood between two beds. She apparently had slumped 10 the floor after being struck. A few feet away lay her husbands body. A message in Creecy's handwriting asking that Mrs. Creeeys brother, J. l.. Reifs- nider, of Westminster, Maryland, be called, was found on the door.
 The tragedy was discovered when attendants broke open the door to see why Chambermaids had been unable to gain admittance. Doctors established that Creecy had been dead about 12 hours. An immedi- ate verdict of suicide was issued by Acting Coroner Rodgers.
 Creecy, member of a well known Washington family, was on leave in the United States and was to return this week to Haiti. He was said to have a splendid record in the ma rine corps. The couple had been married 20 years.
 Mrs. Creecy showed some slight improvement at the hospital just before noon. She remained uncon- scious, but doctors said she had a chance to survive.
 Says He Was Happy
 Brig. Gen. Rufus II. Lane, at tached to headquarters of the marine corps, said he had received several letters in the past year from Creecy in Haiti. In these the officer express ed himself as satisfied and seemed happy.
 In 1909, Creecy Tipped a coin with Lieut. Selfridge, |. s. N, after whom Selfridge Field, Mich, is named 10 see whether he or Sel- fridge would fly with Orville Wright on a test of the Wright machine made for the government. Lieut.. Selfrid%e was killed when the plane crashed.

 l. Serious Question
 The question of excluding alien owned vessels from the fisheries through tariff duties is serious enough to demand national consid- eration, MT, Hopkins said. In Flor ida a considerable sponge fishing industry is almost entirely main tained by non-citizen Greeks. About 75 per cent of California's sardine catch is made by Japanese-owned boats, and the same nationality controls 98 per cent of the fishing industry Of the Hawaiian Islands.
 The Alaska situation is altogeth- CT different from that in any other district Undoubtedly. MT. Hopkin- son concluded, sometime in the not-tco-distant future, the Chamber as an organization, would be asked to express it's views on the advisa- bility Of exclusion of alien-owned ships. He asked that it give the matter thorough consideration go it would be in position to answer wisely that question when it should be submitted.

The only pardons granted by Presi-

scure individuals" excluded from am
nesty by the thirteenth exception class
of the Presidents amnesty proclama-

at the White House.
Since the Cavalry Corps of the Mill

NANCY PACE
Paris Styles Are Sent to
Nancy by Martha.
BIZ FLORENCE La GANKE,

Martha's letters from Paris were be-
ginning to bemoan her impending de-
parture. "Of course, darling, I am
glad that soon will be back in the
States, but surely have had gorgeous
time. I have eaten foods that have
made Paris famous; have visited shops
that are the last word In style and
beauty, and have purchased clothes.
Want to know about my latest pur-
chaser"
OF course, Nancy did, so she turned
the page of the letter and glanced
avidly at the little inclosed sketch.
1t showed Romanian type blouse.
It was made of sheer white material,
almost mull-like. The embroidery was
done in cross-stitch and used the strong
peasant colors.
The waist was cut in a straight piece;
so were the two sleeves in two straight
pieces. Small square pieces or gussets
were put in under arms to prevent the
waist from drawing in under the arms.
The letter went on: Il said that I
had eaten food that has made Paris
famous. That is why l bought the next
dress which I am showing you. I have
peen taxing plenty OF exercise, so my
waist is fairly small and firm. but Ma
ture endowed me with large hip bones,
and some of that good food has made
them even firmer than Nature intended
them to be. But by choosing dress
with bolero which comes below the
waistline the effect of hips is smaller,
since bolero hangs loosely from shcul-
ders.
II learned another way to minimize
large hips: Have a cape which falls be-
low waistline in back and which is tied
carelesslike on one shoulder

such a foot stool that makes it COM
Portable to stretch ones legs on. A
cl1aise Tongue combination of this de-
scription is wonderful to use on a lawn,
for 1t can be carried IN and out of
doors so easily when collapsed.
Camp stools make excellent out-of-
door tea tables. The tray used on one
should reach over both supports, so
that it rests on the framework Then
it is absolutely secure, and will hold
heavy things and breakable china and
glassware as safely as If on table of
solid wood. Serving tea or refresh
ments out of doors is conveniently
done, and even breakfast for two can
be enjoyed on such simple contriv-
ance.
These are but a few of the many
unitarian purposes to which camp
stools can be put. They can be COW
cred with canvas or enamel cloth, with
linen or cretonne. If comparatively
lightweight textile is employed, it can
be given sufficient body by a lining
that is stout. Flat-headed galvanized
iron tacks or round-headed brass tacks
are advised to be used to tack the tex
tile to the supports. Be sure they are
hammered in firmly. so that they hold
well.

Everyday Psychology
BIZ DIR. Jesse ". sPRowLs.
The Age of Skyscrapers.

Ones mind is product of ones en-
vironment. Nothing proves the point
more pointedly than the skyscrapers,
WHICH point to things as vast as the
skies
The one-family home with its fireside
is passing And with the passing OF
the Preside vast changes are being
wrought in religion. 1t was around the
flreside that religion was born. The
caveman saw visions in the dying en-
bers on his crude hearth. The luck OF
the hunt was interpreted to mean
mama from Heaven. Early civilization
assembled at the flreside. turning out
generations of small units, which came
in time to create nations.
The age of skyscrapers is making So
ciety over in new ways, sometimes ad-
vantageously, sometimes tremendously
otherwise.
Where shall we put the peopleP How
shall we control them? Answer these
questions and you have defined soci-
ology, outlined psychology. and made a
fair beginning on the history that is
yet to be written.
Space must submit to rigorous econ
omy; traffic must be reduced to a
mechanism; individualism, personality
or what have you, must be more pro-
nounced in order to be noticed at all
At the same time the weaknesses of
men will be drawn to the surface, mag
nified, because of increased competi-
ton, the parent of poverty and insan-
ity. Physical congestion breeds mental
congestion.
Meanwhile we do have the advantage
of looking out a window instead Of up
chimney in our cropping for our stars
Who knows but man may yet see more
and contemplate better?
