Fake Prize Schemes

A rather ancient scheme for separating the unwary from their money is being worked again, both in the United States and Canada, according to a leading business mems magazine.
 The plan is to insert an ad- vertisement containing a per fectly simple puzzle which anyone can solve, and offer prizes for correct solutions. A favorite prize is a "building iot." Of course, anyone who sends in a solution of the pug gle wins a lot, but he is in- formed that he will be expect ed to remit a small sum-in one case S7.75-for the deed and other incidental expenses connected with the transfer of he property. The "lot" is very small and the S7.75 fees alone would net the seller around $2O0 an acre for some worthless land.
 So, if the winner" swallows the bait he is out just $7.75 for he privilege of working the puzzle, while his name is kAssed along to other swind- lers as that of an easy mark to be added to the Sucker list"
 There are many perfectly le- gitimate prize offers adver- ti2ed in various periodicals, but those which require a pay ment of cash before the prize is delivered are generally fraudulent and should be summed.

"The henpecked husband is the most delightful and child ish person in the world. Some hen-pecked husbands are not really hen-pecked; they are hen-protected."
 Another encouraging state ment he made in this connect ion was that "hen-pecked hus- bands live longer than those who are not hen-pecked."
 We must agree that even though they may not actually live longer, it no doubt seems longer.

Constitution Day

While Constitution Day, Sept ember IT, is not a legal holiday
 observed with appropriate -Xercises in many schools, and various patriotic societies em- ploy the occasion to renew &C., quaintance with the provisions of our nations organic law.
 The Constitution of the Unit ed States was adopted on Sept ember IT, 1787, by the con- vention appointed in pursuance of resolution of Congress. Washington presided over the convention, which was com posed of 55 delegates repre- senting the 13 original states except Rhode Island, and that body was in session nearly four months. The final draft of the Constitution was made by Gov erneur Morris, delegate from Pennsylvania.
 Delaware was the first state to ratify the Constitution on December ', 1787, and Rhode Island was the last, the date of
 ratification being May 29,
 J0.
 -Io first ten amendments, vpularly known as the Bill of Rights, were proposed togeth- CT, and adopted by the re- quired number of states by De- cember 15, 1791. Only two
 her amendments were adopt uu prior to the Civil War; be- tween 1865 and 1870 three more were added. Since then four additional amendments have been adopted, providing for the income tax, direct election of United States sem ators, prohibition and women's suffrage.
 Every citizen of the United States should read the Consti- tuition and it's amendments at least once a year, and Consti- tuition Day is a very appropri- ate occasion for the purpose.

Buoyant Brick

A New York chemist displayed recently, at meeting of scientists, brick made of clay which floats in water and weighs only one-fifth as much as an ordinary brick. It could be left in the water for year, he says and would still be floating It is declared to be of high insulating quality, porous yet resistant to the entrance of water, and ot crushing strength sufficient to support its weight if built into tower five times the height of the Empire State building. Here, then, is material to use for a modern Tower of Babel a mile high if anyone wants that sort of thing.
 One of the things aimed at in designing this brick was to save labor. It is said to cost four times as much to lay an ordinary brick in place as it does to make the brick. Obviously here is brick which would be easier to handle and quicker to lay. A brick of the new material two or three times as large as usual could probably be laid in the same time as the average present-style brick There is less insistence, however, in labor saving just now. What is wanted is em- ployment for labor It would probably be better to emphasize the quality of the new brick for insulation against the damp and cold Here might be one more little thing to help along the desired building boom.

Economic Peace

It has become apparent that the industrial nations are engaged in a tariff war as def- nitely as they were formerly engaged in a military combat. In patriotic efforts to pro- teet themselves from each others products they have nearly all turned aggressive. Walls rise higher and higher trade movements slow up. profits fall, industries emgrate hostility grows. Doesn't that describe conditions in the United States of America to perfection? Only the most biased person would refuse to recognize the truth of the above.
 It has been said though. that recognition of this situation is not confined to any party or faction. However, progress of the pres- ent democratic tariff bill will readily show whether or not this is true, The House, largely on account of its democratic majority, passed lower tariff measure recently. The Senate has yet to do so. It very likely will, although it is possible that it might defeat the measure. But in all events even the most optimistic democrat in the House figures that President Hoover will veto it and any attempt to pass the measure over the Pres ident's veto will fail.
 There the matter stands. We don't sup DOSE llldt WIldl llIe w all olISSl oOull]dl tio- ditional friend of the protective tariff, said recently will prove of much avail at this late date, but at least it is worth reprnting. The Journal calls time out on such forms of international warfare before all nations have ruined themselves. It is timely advice. We only hope that the United States will heed it before it has definitely antagonized every nation with which it has trade rela- tions.
 Nations" says the Journal, are rap idly erecting prohibitory tariff barriers against the products of other countries in an effort 10 become self sufficient when three is no such thing Answering tariff increases with tariff increases or most favored na- ton concession with some other retaliatory move will not bring ibe world back into economic peace. Striking back. erippling others and hurting ourselves can only aggra' vate the present situation.
 The better way would be for the United States 10 refrain from any more isnh pbre.rsttling talk and work for reciprocal ssde agreements and general lowering of wif barriers.
 Let us have economic peace,

Messed-Up Movies

The practice has grown up in movie thcatcrs of preceding the real show with minor attractions, which may or may not interest patrons attracted by the feature picture Sometimes the introductory reels are interesting and in good taste. Some times they are tiresome to many in the au- dienee, interfering with the enjoyment of the big picture when it comes. Sometimes parents taking friends or children are dis gusted and shocked by the stuff they are unexpectedly obliged to look at
 It is strange that genuinely fine pictures so often are abused in this way Nothing of the sort is experienced on the speaking stage. There, if patrons go to see a eer- tain advertised play, they don't have to see along with it something having no relation to it whatever. There is hope, though, for patrons who prefer quality to quantity. Some of the film houses advertise the exact time at which the feature picture starts so that anyone wanting to dodge the less deslr- able part of the program can do SO. This example is to be encouraged,

 Perhaps some of your rock-rib- bed New Englanders and so-called Connecticut Yankees are satisfied with present tariff conditions, but We further West, where America is America, can see further than our noses in respect to the migra- ton of U. $. industry to foreign shores.
 Since the first of the year five American industries, have incor- porated in Canada and have be- gun or are preparing to manu- fracture. Two of the companies are automobile concerns. The Hudson Motor Car Company of Michigan has formed subsidiary, the Hudson Essex of Canada Limited, and will start manufact- uring Hudson Essex cars at Til- bury near Windsor, Ontario, with in a few weeks. Several hundred hands will be employed. The sec ond motor concern Is the Walter Motor Truck Company of Long Island City, N.

What! No Popcorn?

Outlanders have always pitied New York citizens a little. Now it appears there is excellent reason for doing so. There has been popcorn slump in the metropolis It is reported that there are not more than 10 or l2 popcorn stands in the whole extent of Manhattan island and that popcorn hungry being could walk the full length of the Coney Island boardwalk without seeing single stand. It is inferred that popcorn has gone out everywhere. Nobody eats it any more. Nobody cares anything about it.
 That would be deplorable if true. But travel away from the eastern seaboard, and observe. Popcorn stores appear on fine bus ness streets doing a rushing business all day long. Walking through a fashionable shop ping center in the middle west, ones nose is assailed with the deiciously disturbing aroma of popcorn. When the eye seeks out the source, there is a store crowded with customers. men, women, children, buying popcorn balls, plain popcorn properly salted and buttered caramel popcorn, and so on. Drug stores in residential neighborhoods off, ten have popcorn machines which send forth d tempting fragrance at certain hours of the day, notably about the time the movie shows end And what about popcorn in the home' Would electric peppers sell so briskly if popcorn had gone out? Poor old Goth am!

 But to get back to the contro- versy: May we inquire whats all the shootin' for? Why didn't they ask somebody who knows? Covered bridges, of course, were built as art galleries. For didn't they always have the most gorgeous circus post CTS of lady bareback riders and all the other glamoring features of F. T. B's Greatest Show on Earth? And not for just circus time, either. like regular billboards, but all the year round. Also, didn't they make just the swellest place imaginable for marbles or tin can shinny on a rainy day?

A Eulogy Deserved

We haven't read as yet more beautiful or touching tribute to Justice Oliver Wen dell Holmes whose retirement from the United States Supreme Court was announced last week, than that given on the floor or the Senate by Senator David l. Walsh of Massachusetts. The retirement of the veteran iurist at the age of 90, while it came as a surprise to even his associates on the bench, was immediately an occasion for unl- versal regret at his departure from the public life with which he had been so intimately linked for half century. Even those who merely knew Justice Holmes by reputation felt called upon to voice himself in euloglstic fashion. It remained for Senator Walsh to say that T think speak not only the sentiment from members of the Senate but the senti- ments of the people of the United States Of America when 1 extend to him our and their heartiest congratulations upon the excep- tonally long and honorable service which he has rendered our nation during these mem- orable forty y-eight years; and am sure we not only send our message of appreeia- tion and extend our congratulations but, from the bottom of our hearts, we hope this old man in his ninety-first year may still live and enjoy many years of comfort, of ease, of happiness and of qualification and satisfaction that his service has been lofty and inspiring and is deeply appreciated by his fellow citizens.
 "On the occasion of his eighty birthday, in March, 1850, l paid a tribute to him upon the floor of this chamber
 "A few days afterward 1 received mes sage from him which was likewise eharae- teristic of the fine old gentleman he was and is. One line in it I shall never forget be- cause it illustrates his conception of the judiciary He said:
 Dear Senator Walsh: Only today
 my attention was called to the tribute
 you paid me in the Senate few days
 ago.
 I have never believed that public
 man, and especially judge ought ever
 to be thanked
 'Intuitively, naturally he felt that public man ought to do the right thing, the honorable thing, that judge ought never to be thanked, that it ought to be an ordinary, everyday occurrence to be square and honorable and just.
 '1 think that illustrates very beautifully Justice Holmes conception of his office.
 In completing his tribute Senator Walsh had the clerk of the Senate read the follow ing to which we all subscribe:
 "Mr. President the Senate of the
 United States, the Commonwealth of
 Massachusetts justly proud of her
 noble son, and the whole country

Hartford is having its financial difficulties as are most of us these hectic days. To tide the city over until its next installment Of taxes comes due the city has been obliged to float a temporary loan. Just as in our own case local banks will aid. Waterbury succeeded in securing S600,000 in this fash ion, five banks subscribing equal amounts. In Hartford five banks will participate in a S1,O0O,O0O loan All of which is indi- cative of the citys financial credit. It must be good. However, this manner of short term borrowing has been criticized severely lately by prominent economists. We don't doubt that after the present crisis has been passed and cities are on d sound financial basis some effort will be made to curb the tendency.
