this year our difficulties are less great
than usual due to the fact that Jong ess
has provided that the Virgin islands

such a problem as those Of the pas year.
You will notice that the estimates of

Owing to the Limited time at our dis
posal in the operation of loading the
cargo for the Virgin Islands on the
Steamship MARY (not only in what
refers to trans-shlpme ut cargo. but also
that shipped locally,) and considering
also the hour law which is now in
force and which places US in difficult
position when delivery of cargo is made
after the aborers have stopped work
in which cases we have made every eff
fort to please the merchants we beg
to inform you that We will 90: receive
cargo for shipment to said islands af
ter IL noon the day of sailing, that Is
Monday and Thursday.
90 certain occasions lately we have
had delivered TO US cargo after the gangs
have finished. and the impossbility of
obtaining men TO continue work has
as result that some of the cargo has
been left on the pier, which naturally
affects yourselves as well as US.
Therefore, we request your cooper
alton in this matter, and take the oppor
tuDity of expressing our thanks tor
your valuable patronage.
Yours very truly,

Police Win Five Dollar Decision
 Over GypsyBand

A band of gypsies found today that 1t doesn't pay to get fresh with Waterbury's policemen.
 The car in which they were rid- ing passed 8 red light at Willow and West Main streets and Patr0Iman James Behan immedi- ately blew lusty blast on his whistle. The gypsies stopped but they declared themselves conn pIetely innocent of such an Of- fense as passing a red light. They hinted that maybe the policeman was wrong, and even began to cast mild aspersiOns in his direc- tion.
 Five minutes later the gypsies found themselves in the police station, facing Sergt. Joseph F. X. Bagley, veteran desk officer.
 "Thatll cost you five dollars, '" said the sarge.
 The gypsieS didn't like that, either, and {. re enSued another argument. But Sergt. Joe got the five.
 Then, to add insult to injury, the desk officer told them: "We have orders not to let gypsieS stay in this town. You'll have to move On,"
 The gypsies moved.

felt so cool and comfortable. Thu
eyelids just wouldn't stay open
All of a sudden he found himself il
a garden, with the quiet of a May
evening all about him. A fairy
thread that was the new moon hung
just above the rose arbor.
He looked down at the girl
clinging to his arm. What an ex-
|quisite little creature she was! With
her lovely golden hair, and the faint
color hat had stolen into her
cheeks, she looked exactly like a
blushing Gala lily.
He stopped abruptly. She look
ed up at him, clung to his arm a
little more closely, and said softly,
I"I shall miss you so, Henry"
For almost a minute he looked
at her. The top of her curly head
came just to his shoulder. She was
50 tiny, so helpless,so appealing.
Suddenly he had her in his arms,
and was kissing her hungrily, ten
derby. "You won't have a chance
to miss me, my darling, for l shan't
ever let you go. Please say that
you will marry me. l love you so
much, dear. Will your"
The golden head against his
breast nodded. and a muffled little
voice replied, eyes, Henry"
He held her more closely, and
with his lips near her ear he muir

before I go, and I can take you with
me. Oh, Melinda, you sweet little
thing! I'll take such good care Of
you. You won't ever have to worry
about anything. l swear, Darling,
TIL take all the hard knocks. Those
dear little hands shall never do
hard tasks. That pretty little head
of yours shall not be bothered with
tiresome things. l swear it, Melinda.
Now kiss me again, my dearest"
Then the garden vanished, and
the moon, and he remembered. All
that was long ago, so long ago, and
-"Yes, l managed it; for twenty
five years l managed it. And now
I think I'll go to Sleep"
To the ones anxiously watching
beside his bed, all of a sudden he
seemed to relax. A look of peace
spread over his coreworn features.
Several minutes later Sarah laid
his hand down very gently, and
spoke quietly to Henry's friend,
Look at his face. Thank God, he

Hell Week"
Meets Criticism
From The Pioneer)

Madison, Wis.-(ACP) - Hell
Week is dying, but the traditional
fraternity initiation period still has
loyal supporters, according to As
ISOLATED Collegiate Press cores
pondents at Middle Western, Paci-
fic, and Southern schools. Despite
the annual barrage of criticism.
plenty of pledges absorbed the pre-
scribed doses Of punishment and
indignity this year.
"And why not?" demanded the
anonymous and slightly ungramat-
ical forestry student who denounc-
ed Penn State Collegian editors for
the papers anti-Hell Week policy
with "The foresters are more of a
gentleman in their crudest NOM
ents than you are. A self-respect-
ing fraternity wants men in its
membership, not *sissies.'"
Slightly at variance with his
view, was the stand taken by nine
Penn State fraternities. Alpha
Chi Rho, Delta Chi. Delta Tau
Delta, Delta Epsilon. Lambda Chi
Alpha. Phi Gamma Delta, Sigma
Alpha Epsilon, Sigma M and Tri-
angle, after listening to a plea by
Wilbur M. Walden, national secre-
tary of Alpha Chi Rho, declared a
permanent ban on He'll Week.
Similar action was taken by the
University Disciplinary COMMITTEE
at DePauw, with social probation
the penalty for fraternities declin-
ing to abolish outlawed initiation
practices. 1.-THE fraternity world
is changing" said The DePauw,
student paper, in commenting on
the decision. IF we contemplate
for long the fraternity of ten
years ago we shall find ourselves
holding a mess of pottage."
The University of Tennessee
Orange and White asked the Inter-
fraternity Council to order dis
continuance of Hell Week. MANY
of our fraternities have gone be-
yond the limits of reason, and even
responsibility in their application
of this perturbation CUSTOM"
says The Orange and White. Con-
sidering the violence to which
some of our fraternities have re-
sorted, Tennessee is lucky that
more accidents have not occurr-
ed"
Meanwhile, the National Inter-
