SOCRATIC FORUM
 AT SECOND CHURCH
Are We Scrapping the COnstitutiOn?" Subject
 Discussed Last Night

Are We Scrapping the Consti- tution?" was the title of a lecture delivered last night at the Socrat- ic forum at the Second church. The subject was discussed by Judge Epaphroditus Peck of Bris- tol, Howard Williams, director of the League for Independent Po- litical Action, E. Robert Steven son, Ernest w. Christ, vice-prc>:- dent of the Stanley Works of New Britain, Dr. Wofford c. Timmons of New Britain, Dr. Ota Loud, who is in charge of the Mount Holly, N. J., hospital, Rev. Louis H. Johnston of Kensington and Rev. Moses R. Lowell of this city.
 Rev. MT. Lowell pointed to the trend toward Relationships in Eur opean countries and expressed the belief that the MIRA is making the president of the United States Q dictator. Dr. Tommins said that the Constitution was made to serve the people,, and is not sacroscant. MT. Williams said that the present trend of government is to get the country's wealth redistributed into
 more hands. Rev. Mir. Johnston said that one cannot say that Pres- ident Roosevelt is a dictator be- cause his present powers were giv- en him by Congress. Judge Peck declared that if Congress provided you could kill man that wouldn't make it legal. MT. Stevenson said we are shutting our eyes to what is most essential, liberty. The other tspeakers also discussed at length the present day conditions here and in Europe.

WINTER SEASON
 AT CAMP ROBERTS
Plans Made in Due Time to Cope With Cold
 Weather

The sudden change to colder weather did not complicate mat ters as Camp Roberts. The camp is now ready to cope with "Old Man Winter" in his worst form. Stoves have been installed in all of the buildings making the quarters com fortable. The fire places in the rec reation rooms are very popular and many a yarn may be heard in the usual circle which gathers around them.
 The group organized to produce minstrel shows held a meeting Oct 24. Rehearsals will be held in the parish house of the Episcopal church in Thomaston. Joseph Dc George, chairman of the music coni- mittee, reported that he and his committee had picked a chorus and had selected the talent avail able for the show. Men proficient with the accordion, harmonica, .xylophone, banjo, guitar and piano were found in camp. MT De George will arrange the music and direct this talent to the best interests of the show.
 / With the coming of winter more interest will be taken in education al activities due to the forced ter- imitation, of outdoor sports. Courses are available in arithmetic, spell ing, grammar and forestry at the camp.
 An added feature to the educa- tional program is offered by the State Trade school in Torrington. This school prepares for self -sup- porting and self-respecting citizen ship by training young men in the basic skilled trades.
 Courses are offered in mechanical drawing, machine work, carpentry, and electrical work. There are al- so short courses such as trade mathematics, trade english. house wiring, lathe practice, planer prac- tice, motor testing and motor wind-

THIS IS THE SEASON
 FOR BRUSH FIRES

Parents should warn children of the danger of lighting fires in brush lots. This practice is in- dulged in without thought of the damage that may result of the pas time, if such 1t might rightfully be termed. The lots are covered with dry grass and leaves and mo- body can tel where fire started in them will lead to. This is of much concern to people who live on the outskirts of the city. It makes much work for the firemen. This is something to be considered, but after all it Is but a small mat ter compared with risk to life and damage to property. a.

 "It is of interest to note that the number of fatalities among birds increased perceptibly on. the pave ments of Ohio and Indiana, which is in agreement with the reports of others who have made similar observe tions."
 MT Hadley's statement con cludes:
 Tt is doubtful, whether the au- tomobile, at present, should be counted a major menace to oui wild bird-and animal-life. How. ever, when we couple the mute and visible evidence, which is daily tc be noted along many principl. thoroughfares, with a recent re port of the Pennsylvania gaW' commission that 150 deer hav' been killed over period of three years on one sector of state highway, 1t is quite obvious tha speeding motor-cars must be con sidered as one of the many agen cies that play their part in deci mating the interesting and valu able wild life of our country aN Civil aviation in Australia is in rrna ci Q "

The objectives of the MIRA are closely allied to the aims of Chris tianity, Rev Herbert D. Gallaudet, former pastor of the First Congre- gational church, stated during his sermon at the Bunker Hill Congre- gational church yesterday. He pointed out that the spirit of the recovery act Is to give every man Q more equal chance in contrast to the older tradition of letting each man strike out for himself.

Leaves are falling to the ground With their ever rustling sound. The woods are growing much less dense Vines are whitening on the fence. Autumn did quick about face And soon thele will not be trace Of autumn color much to our regret. Novembers always so staid and set. A smoky smell is in the air, You couldn't describe the days as rare. So long October; we like your style. Hello November come on, now smile.
