Editor Askov American:
Permit me to send Christmas greet
ings to friends.
Christmas. is to me more than
boring entertainment, sentimental
time, some extra glasses of beer and
a new necktie. / am convinced that
the creative God Of love did expose
himself once and for all times in
Christ. -.:
His revelation has ascertained to
me one main fact regarding myself,
namely that belong to everybody and
everybody is part of me. l have
my personal characteristics and yet
there is nothing human in anybody
but what it is found in me.
| All diseases for, example are dis
cernible in me. l have even voted
for prohibition once. which shows
that / am not immune from such a
horrible plague, Like millions Of
others l have tried to escape from
reality on wings of panaceas and re-
form. | have. been stupid enough to
assume that we can conserve life or
change human nature. l have sus-
tanned the pharisee's false distinc-
tion between good and evil.
| All the authorized falsehood OF the
world is lodged in me. abhor the
harlot; and yet / have not particle
of right to do. so. despise the mon
eyed man; and yet l have desired
money l know that the person who
is poor in all respects is close to hap
piness; and yet try with my fellows
to avoid poverty.
Sin itself, consisting of organized
opposition to the man of integrity and
love, Christ. is rooted in my heart.
So when our castles fall. l shall
fall with them. My name and iden-
tity will be erased. Christ, who was
born out of infinite truth, told us
plainly that the Law of Moses and all
other foundations Of civilizations must
be shattered. for they are not COM
patible with truth. Only love is true
and love does not recognize the
worlds best conception of good and
evil.
Wells, the English writer, forsees
the collapse of our civilization and
the construction of a new rational
beautiful civilization. which has era
Dictated cold and false teeth. But II
will be addicted to the worst of all
diseases. namely progress. 1t will be
so progress frenzied that life can.
not be.
Wells has a keen understanding OF
history, but he is afraid. He has moi
courage to face the Christ indictment
even against his scientific utopia mol
to believe that God can make a dea6
bone live again. He does not venture
to see that this historic life OF ours
must be defeated ere the world OF love
can be realized. and that God does
love the poor fellow who cannot keer
up with the great inventor.
May God speak His gospel. His
Word. to US. although we disbelievt
Him and are afraid of Him. Only
thus can the real Christmas Joy fine
refuge in our hearts.

More than $4,000 has been turned
into the state treasury in the past
year through activities of the state
highway patrol, according to an esti-
mate by Chief John P. Arnoldy, based
on complete reports for IL months
and partial records for December.
Most of the money was paid in by
out-of-state truck operators and other
motor vehicle owners who were re-
quired by the patrol to purchase Ii
cense plates specified by law. In the
first II months of 1885 the money
from such license collections amount
ed to $116,315 while fines paid by per-
$44,729. This is an average of more
than $4,000 month in license col
lections and more than 81 900 month
in fines. The same average in De-
cember would bring the total over
$175,0 900 for the year.

FIRST ELECTRIC
 CAR NOW MEMORY
Built 100 Years Ago; Made Initial Run in Low.
 CT Naugatuck Valley

If you happen to step aboard ! street car to-day, taking the use of modern facilities of transportation as an every-day matter of course, you con give passing thought to the fact that exactly 100 years ago to-day the electric transportation system of the world consisted of a big idea in the head of country blacksmith and in a small model car which he held in his hands.
 The blacksmith was Thomas Davenport of Brandon, Vermont. Davenport was poor and unedu- cated but in years of struggle he made scores of electric motors, and at last, just 100 years ago in 1885, he saw one of his models roll forward on a circular track. He later exhibited a small car at Springfield and also at Boston. Davenport's principle was wrong, however, and his work was futile, but at least he had given the world an idea. To him America owes the honor of having originat- ed electric traction.
 Three years later, the first cleo trio car to run on standard gauge track was produced in Scot land. It was not until 1881, how ever, that Pacinnoti invented the reversible continuous current dyna- mo upon which all modern gener- 'ators and motors are based. The intervening 26 years between Day. export and Pacinnoti had been largely wasted as far as electric railway progress was concerned. Now came another similar interval, this time of IS years, before the first practical electric line was or- erated, and then nine more years before the construction of electric roads on q commercial scale was begun in Richmond, Va, by the late Frank J. Sprague, since named "the Father of the Electric Railways"
 The Richmond line, the first in- stance of commercial electric rail- way traction in history, began op :. eration in February, 1888. Three months later in May, 1888, Con- necticut had the honor of witness ing what is believed to be the first use of electric traction for the transportation of freight. The car was run in the lower Naugatuck Valley near Ansonia and Derby. On its first run, the car was found to be too high to pass under a low bridge and two months had to be spent cutting it down before it could be put into full-time opera tior, carrying freight between docks on the river and industrial plants in the valley sector. Just ten years before this, an experi- ment in the street car traction had been made by Henry Bushnell on Whitney avenue in New Haven, in which a compressed air motor was used to provide locomotion.
 Electric railway lines grew rap idly in Connecticut, most of them to be combined near the dawn of the century under the name, The Consolidated Company, and later under the name, The Connecticut Company.

WORKMAN INJURED |AS CABLE BREAKS

 Struck by q steel cable which snapped while being used asa tow line, Joseph Vechon, of 262 Center street, Meriden, sustained a severe head injury. The accident took place in Thomaston, with veclhon being rushed to Waterbury hospi- tai after treatment by Dr. Win- field Wight. x-rays were tals- en to-day to determine whether or not the victim of the unique acci- dent suffered a skull fracture.
 A truck went down an embank- ment in Thomaston and an attempt was being made to tow 1t back on to the road. A steel cable was used, and 1t was the snapping of this which resulted in vechon's in- jury, the loose end of the cable striking his head.
