BLOOMFIELD PLAYERS
 COMING JULY 6 AND '

Kent, July 2-The Brookfield Players, whose first play, "In The Tradition" aroused so much contro- versy in New Milford, played to hilarious audience in the Kent Church Commpunity House last evening. During the acts, the au- dience which was composed of the towns social elite, laughed incess- antIy at the play and between the acts they laughed at New Milford.
 One of Rents social leaders was heard to remark, T always put on my old clothes when go to New Milford"
 Someone else asked if the corpse used in the undertaking scene was found each evening in New Mil ford,
 Virgil Geddes, author of the play was prevailed upon to make a speech and after the performance many of the audience fingered in the lobby to congratulate the Brookfield Players on the original ity of their play and the excellence of their acting.
 Among those seen to be enjoying themselves were one of the minis ters in Kent, the author, Jessie Kit tenhouse Scollard, the well known painter, Willard D. Paddock.
 The next performance of "In The | Tradition" will be given July and at the Waterbury Women's Club in Waterbury.

 WINGS FOR MAN
Study Insects to Adopt Motivations for Human
 Beings
UNUSUAL EXPERIMENT

Paris-Dr Magnan, Of the college de France, and Dr Sainte-Lague, of the Conservatory c of Crafts and Trades, have undertaken to estab- fish some direct relation between the flying power of birds and winged insects and the possibilities of thetr imitation by man.
 The work of these two scientific research men has revealed that there may yet be more truth than fIction in the legend of Icarus, son of Daedalus, who, after attaching the wings to himself which his father made him to fly across the Aegean Sea, flew too close to the sun, so that the wax with which they were fastened on, melted off, and he went down in history as the first unsuccessful trans- oceanic flyer, while his father landed safe-
 ly on the other side and went on
 about his business. A modern study fthe flying powers of birds
 and bugs has convinced these two
 scientists that the day will yet
 dawn when man will be abue to fly on wings of his own manufact- ure and by his own arm-power.
 According to their calculations wings could be constructed for the flight of human being which would make his flight. possible .f the proper distribution of weight and movement could be obtained.
 Their findings include the fact that
 a sort of lunging motion which all ternately drops and lifts their bod
 ies bteween the wings, supplies the proper action for flight in birds combined with adjusted wing move ments. The scientists theoriZe that a man weighing 100 kilograms including the weight of the wings and Tapping 13 to 20 times ever second would be able to maintain himself in mid-air with a power of one-eighth Horsepower.
 The complete report of the two Frenchmen, as outlined above. has just ben presented to the French Academy of Sciences, and is being studied by oher scientists of that
 body of savants with the view to adopting and prefecting any prac-
 tical features the proposed new
 tyne of aviation may contain.

Asks Millions Of
 Girard Estate
Philadelphia May Institute Suit to Reopen Will in Move to Aid Depleted Treasury and "Over- burdened Taxpayers" {

 Philadelphia. - (UP)-Through the will of stephen Girard, writ ten more than a hundred years ago. the mayor of Philadelphia hopes to prevent municipal bankruptcy.
 Girard. wealthy merchant and ship owner, created a trust fund in his will to provide for the or- phan boys of Philadelphia and New Orleans. In addition, his, will stated that, after the upkeep of his orphans school was taken from the income of his estate, the balance of the interest should be used for municipal improvements in Phil adelphia, the employment of a well-trained and organized watch, or police force, and in the relief of the overburdened taxpayers of the city.
 Asks $10, ,OOO,oOO for City
 Faced with a police pay cut be- cause of depleted city treasury and increased tax rates, Mayor J. Hampton Moore has asked the city board, which administers the Cir ard estate, to give the city $10.- 000,000 of the balance of their in- come to relieve the "overburdened taxpayers"
 Last year the income of the es- tate was $3,086,516. The board of city trusts spent $1,788,280 for maintenance of Girard college ia and $1,113,511 for new buildings on the college grounds. While the board admitted that the same amount would not be spent on the college for new build. ings each year. most of them were not inclined to accept the mayors opinion of the will of the former Frenchman.
 Might Take Court Action
 City Solicitor David J. Smythe said that, in his opinion, the in. tent of the will was plain and the city might institute a friendly suit in the orphans court In the event that the board failed to act in ac. cordance with the mayors request
 "When Girard talked of reliev. inging the burdens of the taxpay. ers," Moore said, The certainly wal discussing conditions as they exis to-day. After Girard college il cared for, under the expressed in structions of the donors will. thu city is entitled to the balance o, the income from his estate to lower our tax burden"

 God" will be the subject of the Iesson-sermon.
 The golden text is taken from Exodus 20: 2, 3: "I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me-. Selections from the Bible in clude the following passages from Jeremiah 23: 23, 24: Am I a God at hand, saith the Lord. and not a God afar off? Can any hide him. self in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord"
 Correlative passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Sci- ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy include the following from page 140: 23: "The Jewish tribal Jeho- yah was a man-projected God, liable to wrath, repentance, and human changeableness. The Chris tian Science God is universal, eter- nal, divine Love, which changeth not and causeth no evil, disease, 2 nor death. It is indeed mournfully true that the older scripture is re- versed. In the beginning God ere ated man in His, Gods image; but mortals would procreate man, and make God in their own human z image. What is the god of a mor- tai, but a mortal magnified?"
