 Among the most serious of emer- gencies that demand frst-aid is re- suscitation after asphyxiation which may result from drowning, from electric shock or from ex- haust gas poison. Occasionally, there may be asphyxiation from other sources, such as gas escaping from electric refrigerators.
 It has been estimated that 25 per cent of men and boys past IF years of age do not know how to swim, and there are few women who would be capable of simming long enough or far, enough to save themselves in an emergency.
 When a persona has been under water long enough to become un- conscious-about four or i've min utes--first-aid measures are of greatest importance to save life. Resuscitation by the manual method is important because it is the quickest and most readily avail- able. There are numerous devices

 She said nothing.
 "You can help me right a tragic wrong," Barrett went on. You can give your father his chance to get well, give peace to the Thropes and an education to those three boys. Will you do this?"
 "How?"
 By marrying me-" he said slow ly. She lost color. and he went on hastily. I'm asking you to live in my house as my guest for one year. In that way can turn over to you and the Thorpes the money that is morally, if not legally, yours and theirs.

I don't want anyone to know the reason for our marriage. The world would misunderstood. It might possibly see me as a hero instead of a man who merely hap pens to be honest enough not to want to rob others. It might see you as a girl who sold herself in- stead of a girl willing to forget herself in order to help someone else.
 He paused. He saw her draw a deep breath. She looked remark ably like a Title girl who is balk- ed at her lessons.

 She whispered, "I don't know She held finger against her lips and he noticed that her hand was trembling. For a fleeting space and against his reason the old ten derness for her returned. He was shamed by the emotion which must, he felt, he wholly physical. How it persisted!

 She smiled little at that but he did not understand her smile.
 And in turn" he continued more weightily, T give you my word that I will never raise my hand tC touch you except before others. We may have to masquerade a little before others.

She felt curiously defeated, drag gled, tired. And she knew that the old black chiffon was an un- alluring. as tired as a damp tea towel would be beside a clean crisp pink and white one.

 Certainly. A human personal ity is a continuous growth that has it's roots buried in childhood. Children learn or unlearn steadi- ness, balkiness, self confidence, tri- feriority and all basic beginnings of personality that in married lire show their full effect. A child. dominated by it's father, may later become either a weak, fearsorne husband or else a domineering one. Similarly a mother may affect child. Parents should realize these facts In training their children.

LYNCH'S ATTACK BREAKS ON SYSTEM
Plan Here Calls For Tax Payment
 Year After Due
West Haven Assals Waterbury for Failure to Turn in County Debt-Tirade Features Hartford Meeting Explanations Follow Address of SOIOn

Waterbury was assailed for it's failure to pay the county tax due last year by Senator John r. Lynch of West Haven at the meeting yes- .terday afternoon in Hartford of the legislators of New Haven coufi- ty. The attack on Waterbury was one of the features of the meet ing at which the budget of the county for the next 15 months was hdopted.
 The attack on Waterbury by Lynch, however, did not disclose anything unusual, 1t was later pointed out. It has been the cus- tom for some years for this city not to appropriate money for the county tax until the year following that in which 1t is due. Therefore. failure to pay last years tax IS not due to any negligence on the part of the city but merely part of the usual system of handling the local finances.
 The budget was adopted for 15 months instead of for two years, as has been the custom in the past, 50 that the fiscal year will here- after correspond with the county commissioners terms.
 z The budget adopted did not meet the approval of the democrats. It calls for 10 per cent cut in the

State Labor Law
 in WatertOwn
Manager of Shop Given Light Fine and Warning

Pleading guilty to 32 charges of violating the sstate labor laws. Abe DLugin, general manager of tho Watcrtown Undergarment Corp, was fined $5 on each count, a total of $160, plus costs amounting to $03.10. Justice Joseph R. Neill pre- sided and issued warning that more severe penalties would be mi posed if the accused should ever appear before him on similar counts. Watertown will not tol- crate any ''sweatshops," Justice Neill stated most emphatically. Twenty-slx other counts against D. Lugin were nolled. Attorney Ter ence r. Carmody, counsel for the accused, stated that the violations were not intentional, but were made through 6 lack of familiarity with the laws of Connecticut. D. Lugin promised to respect tho laws in the future and assured the court that he would not discharge any of his present employees in re- venge for his arrest. Grand Juror Francis Flynn recommended leni- ency with this understanding.
 DLugin was accused of 20 counts of employing minors under 16 years of age and permitting them to work 10 hours a day and 3 counts of employing minors with out school permits. The town court was crowded for the hearing. Four repre- sentatives of the state department of labor were present as witnesses.

salaries of the commissioners in- stead of 12 per cent as was ap- proved at the last meeting of the legislators. Dr H. H. Gorton of Naugatuck, one of the republican county commissioners, was blamed by Representative Pastore of New Haven as being responsible for the smaller cut. Senator Lynch re- torted by saying that 10 percent is all the cut the Hartford county commissioners. have taken.
 He added that the smaller towns Of the county pay a larger proportion of the county tax than is Justified by the number of inmates they have in the county homes and jail. He said that one town. later iden- tified by Representative Leon Me- Carthy as Ansonia, has only six inmates. but pays several thousand dollars in taxes.
 Representative John D. Thoms of this city said that in his opinion the Naugatuck valley towns pay the greater portion of the tax.
 As adopted the budget calls for tax on the towns of the county of $327,376. This represents small reduction which is made possible, largely. through the willingness of the state to increase It's grant, for the support of children in the county homes.

New Haven, March. 29-Building permits issued by cities and towns in Connecticut during the month of February continued to follow the sharp downward trend of January and the total valuation of the per mits reached the lowest point in many years, 1t IS shown in the monthly building survey taken by the freight traffic department of tho New Haven Railroad among twonty-three communities along It's linSs.
 As compared with the total valu- atlon of the permits issued in Jan- 'uary, those of February showed decline of more than fifty percent, tho total for the latter month for tho twenty-three cities and towns included in the survey being less than $300,000. Despite this un- usually drastic drop in permits, ac- centuated to some extent by the short month. seven of the surveyed commities enjoyed gains over their January totals. These were Bristol Danbury, Hartford, Mlddletown, New Britain, Stamford and Weth- ersneld.
