century to discover the reason for
Uncle Naboths ruthless behavior in the Summer
Of 1908.
That was the year Aunt Eulalie bought a
phonograph. 1t had q horn like q big pink
morning glory, a permanent needle and six
glossy brown cylinder records. From the very
first Under the Bamboo Tree" was the favorite
number in its repertoire. I always played 1t
whenever ! could get my hands on the phono-
graph, and so did every one else who came to
the house. The other records were all right IN
their way but Under the Bamboo Tree" had
everything that song should have, including
an appreciative audience. There was hardly an
hour Of the day when its you lika me lika

Of the front parlor.
But one afternoon when I went into the
parlor to play Under the Bamboo Tree" met
Uncle Naboth coming out with a hammer In
his hand and a gleam Of triumph IN his eye.
Suspecting nothing, put the record on, wound
up the machine and turned the starting switch.
But instead Of the usual preliminary purr there
was harsh gritty noise: then the phonograph
began hiccoughing madly. If you blip hka me

Dismayed, turned 1t on and examined the
record. It was cracked from end to end;
furthermore, it bore a half-moon scar which

musical mania. Already we are showing symp-
toms Of coming down with SNUG little afflic-
ton entitled, "Didja Ever See Dream walking?

The tunes Of today are not chronic, as they
were in the days of the morning glory phono-
graph. They are acute melodies. modern
song hit has the reiterative impact Of pneu-
matte drill. Listening to it, you quickly &C
quire caulflower ear for music. Its life Is
short but hectic. For two weeks 1t is sung,
whistled. footed, thumped, scraped, pirated
and parodied until it is stamped on the sub
conscious mind Of every man. woman and
child who Is not stone deaf For q fortnight
it becomes an unoficial national anthem.
And then when its novelty has been ex-
hausted by even the remotest hill-billy, it is
dropped like a hot-cha. But does this mean
that a blessed silence descends suddenly upon
the land? 1t does not. Without q pause for
breath We take up new refrain unanimously.
QEFORE the invention Of the radio, it usually
y took a song writer years to get hearing.
He had to hire small time vaudevilians to plug
his songs while the audience plugged its ears.
His income derived solely from haphaz-
ard royalties on sheet music; and in his old
age he was periodically discovered in desti-
tuition by newspaper reporters in search of q
Monday story.
But when the modern song writer woos
fame, it's whirlwind courtship. Parnassus
becomes a roller coaster. On the way up he
almost meets himself coming down.
1t Is fun while 1t lasts-or, rather it used
to be. Lately, however, song writer's have be-
gun to suspect that q popular song may be
too popular for its own good. They have OBJ
served that among their brain children the
infant prodigies invariably die young, and they
are coming to the conclusion that macrobiotic
mediocrity may be preferable to brief success,
however brilliant They would If they could,
limit the number Of times a given tune may
be played in a given period, to keep it from
wearing out its welcomes.
But though they may restrict the broad
casters and the cabaret canaries, it is doubtful
if they can ever persuade the great music
consuming public to subscribe to listeners
code. They have created an auditory demand
which must be filled. II We don't get our cur

Four. Year Course Marks New Era of Preparation
 for Vocation


 Ectabliahmene of the TeacherG oalIege, last year, with a fauk-year training course ie seen as the be- sinnig of a better program of teachess' preparation for the state of Connecticut, by Franklin D, Pierce. director of the bureau of teacher education ef the Conheeti- cut state department of education who spoke last night ak the meet. ing of the Bushes and Profession al Wpmen's club.
 Mir Pierce explained the manner in which the teachers college func- toned and said the institution of the college marked the first fes. ward stet, in teacher training since 1851, when the New Britain Npr- nal school was established.
 Miss Florence Greenleaf preaid- ed at the meeting, which wak held at the new club rooms on Bank street. Miss Rena Puffef, chairman of the ways and means committee made a report on the bridge party conducted by the group in October and q vote of thanks was given to Mrs Katherine Williams for her management of the rutnmase sale, held last week.

 elections was the strength of the socialist party which both major parties feel certain will account for decisive vote in Fairfield county. There was fear the socialists would cut deeply into reutrns from the small towns, most of which have been republican, and hold the bai- ance of power in the final account ing.
 There also was expected to be an unprecedented number of split ballots.
 Fears For Walcott
 The fate of U. S. Senator Fred erick c, Walcott, republican, was cause or considerable speculation. He Is opposed by Representative Francis T. Maloney. an ardent New Deal supporter and advocate of the cash bonus.
 Waicott, on the black list" of the American Federation of La Dor. last week was indorsed by J. Nicholas Danz, president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor. as was the entire republican ticket. This action led to suspension of Dang by the Federation's execu- tive committee, which assigned Danx's support as not representa- tive of the labor group. The third district congressional race between Major James A. Ehanley, democrat, and Joseph F. Morrissey, republican, was another uncertain factor. Four years ago Shanley almost upset former Con- gressnlan John o. Tilson. There Is considerable democratic senti- ment in that district.
 Governor Race Close
 The EubernatoriaI race was ex- pected to be as close as two years ago when Governor Wilbur l.. Gross squeezed ahead of Connecti- cuts former flying governor. John H. Trumbuii. by 10000 votes as the state swung it's support to Hoover on the national ticket.
 Both candidates are running on almost identical platforms involy. ing liquor. milk. governmental economy, old age pension and re- lief issues. Governor Cross was the only democrat to survive his ticket during the last four years.
 Republicans were conceded tneir customary majority in the state house of representatives. Tn the senate, where democrats ruled by q majority of one last session. there was agaoin uncertainty.
 A fourth party. independent cit- izens, was not expected to make great inroads. The guiding spirit in this faction is Professor Albert Levitt, former independent repup- lican candidate for governor. spe-- cial assistant attorney general ana now a candidate for congress from inc fourth district, opposing the in- cumber1t, Schuyler Merritt. repub- lican, and Edward T. Buckingham. former democratic mayor o. Bridgeport.
 The weather was democratic. If started raining Shortly after the polls opened and the prospects were far from clearing. Despite this. Mrs Lucy A. Woodworth, lOl. and blind. voted at Middletown by absentee ballot. Governor Cross and his opponent, Hugh M.

MAINE HAS HER
 OWN TROUBLES

Augusta, Me-, Nov 6.-(UP)--- The Maine legislature convened fin special session to-day to consider the method of dispensing liquor under repeal. Two bills concern ing the liquor question in Maine were under consideration. with possibility of several others heinz introduced. The measures were drafted by Governor Louis J. Brann's special advisory commit tee, and former State Senator Frank D. Southard, judge of tho Augusta municipal court. As both are revenue bills. they were intro- duced in the house.
 The so.called verrill liquor pre- pared by Judge Southard is similar to the New Hampshire law ani provides for staet liquor stores and appointment of a liquor control commission. It also provides for licensing of hotels, restaura nts, clubs, railroad dining cars and vessels for the consumption of liquor on the premises with food sold at the same time.
