BEACON FALLS Wm J. Baxter. Correspondent-Phone Naugatuck e72-2

Beacon Falls, August 30 - Con- tinued progress is being made in construction of the new bridge here, replacing the obsolete wooden bridge leading to Railroad avenue.
 Much more of the upper steel work has been done and progress is being made in preparing for lay ing of the floor of the structure. Day by day the bridge assumes more definite form and substance and indications are 1t will not be long before 1t will be completed. From the rate of present work, the entire job may be finished before the time estimated.
 The work of the men on the bridge Is fascinating at times. They handle the various instruments used with delft sureness that holds the attention of the spectators who are constantly watching throughout the day and step confidently along the iron beams, about six inches in width with holes on either side where mistep might mean broken leg or a worse Injury.
 No Accidents
 NO accidents or arrests were re- ported here by state police at the Beacon Falls barracks yesterday.
 Routine business was transacted last night at meeting of Beacon Lodge, Knights of Pythias in Py- thian hall.
 Scouts Leave Tonight
 Members of Beacon troops, Boy Scouts, were all set to leave to- night by truck to Camp Pershing on the Housatonic where they will spend the weekend. Scoutmaster George Rau and Assistant Andy Rau will supervise the youngsters.
 They are to report at D. m. at the home of the scoutmaster on North Circle. They must bring sufficient bed clothing to withstand the chill of the fall nights, each boy using his own. They will have to furnish their own refreshments but on Sunday will be given dim ner by the scoutmaster.

LIFE COSTLY TO
 URBAN JEWELLERS
No Adjustments Made for Deaths of Rural Inhabi.
 tants in City Hospitals

New York, N. Y.-The urban dweller pays with from four to five years of life for the advan- tage of living and working in the city, judging by his average length of life as compared with that of his rural brother. This price, set jointly by nature and industrial conditions, has been computed by the Statistical Bureau of the Met ropolitan Life Insurance company from life tables relating to the white population of the United States in 1880. In these tables a community is reckoned as urban If 1t has 10000 or more inhabitants.
 The urban white male, at birth was found to have an expectation of life of 56.73 years, while the expectation for the rural dweller was 62.09 years. Corresponding figures for white females were 61.05 and 65.09 years.
 The statisticians explain that while no adjustment was made for deaths of rural inhabitants who die in city hospitals-a factor for which 1t is difficult to make prop per allowance-there can be no doubt that the figures are essen- tially characteristic of urban and rural longevity. This finding is in line with a previous observation that mortality tends to run in di- rect relation to the degree of in- dustrializatoin.
 On the basis of a series of life tables for individual states com puted by them, the Metropolitan statisticians have compiled table giving the life expectancy of then white populations of the various states, together with the percent age of the white male population at the ages of 10 years and over engaged in manufacturing and mechanical industries. South Da- kota, 9.2 per cent industrialized, is No. 1 in this list, with a life expectancy at birth of 64.3S for men and 66.S1 years for women. Kansas, 153 per cent industrial ized, stands second with life expectancy of 63.24 years for men and 66.06 years for women, while North Dakota, "A per cent in- dustrialized, is third with life expectancy of 63.24 years for men and 65.95 for women.
 Rhode Island, New York and Pennsylvania, three of the mos highly industrialized states of the country, rank respectively 40th, 41st and 43d in this table. The life expectancy of these states Is as follows: Rhode Island, ALA per cent industrialized, 5S.06 years for males and 61.39 years for fe- males; New York, 30.1 per cent industrialized, 57.s4 years for male and 61.72 for females, ana Penn sylvania, 30.7 per cent industrial ized, 57.6S for males and 61.35 for females.
 The states of Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona are respec- lively 46th, 47th and 4Sth in rank in this table. These states show a very low expectatoin of life in spite of low percentage Of indus trializatoin. The stutisticians eX- plain thath this low ranking is due partly to the fact that many persons go to these states for their health, and that these states have a large Mexican population, whose mortality is markedly above that of the general white population with which they have been classi- fled.

OF paramount interest this week is

The spotlight will be rivted on Miss
GULL and her much talked-about rival
from Norfolk, Ida Simmons, whom she

NYyHO the five players on each
w side will be probably won't be
determined until a week before
the match, for league averages will
have a strong bearing. 1t is not
unlikely that McGolrick and Phillips
will preclude any possibility Of argu-
ment (there are dozens of capableS
who would grab the chance to shoot
in this match) by picking the top
five men from the Masonic and
knights of Columbus Leagues for
regulars and another star or two for
alternates.
McGolrick and Phillips both appear
TO be cincheS to make the teams, but
willingly would bench themselves If
others could show better averages.
Unlike most specials of its kind,
the knights of Columbus Masonic
match will have genuine class. Every
man on both teams will be a per-
former capable of holding his own in
almost any company. To mention
only a few of the Masons, Irving
Billheimer. George Stevens, John
