An early Greek prayer translated
from the Greek by Gilbert Murray is
as applicable to day as it was cen
turies ago. 1t is as follows: May l
be no mans enemy, and may / be
the friend of that which is eternal
and abides. May l never quarrel
with those nearest me- and if l do,
may / be reconciled quickly. May l
never devise evil against any man
if any devise evil against me, may I
escape uninjured and without the
need of hurting him. May l love,
seek and attain only that which is
good. May / wish for all mems hap
piness and envy none. May l never
rejoice in the ill-fortune of one who
has wronged me. When l have done
or said what is wrong may l never
wait for the rebuke of others, but
always rebuke myself until / make
amends. May / win no victory that
harms either me or my opponent
May l reconcile friends who are
wroth with one another. May | new
er fail friend in danger. May I
respect myself. May l always keep
tame that which RACES within me.
Nay l accustom myself to be gentle
and never be angry because of Cir
cumstanceS.

Smaller the Body, More
Rapid the Heart Beats

The heart beats 100 times a minute
in a small child and on an average of
Y times a minute in an adult, OBJ
serves writer in the Chicago Tribune.
Apparently, with some exceptions, the
smaller the body the more rapid the
pulse. In a mouse, for instance, the
heart beats from 500 to 1000 times
a minute, and in a horse only 80 times
a minute.
The human heart pumps about 500
gallons Of blood a day in an adult.
During a normal lifetime it beats about
two and half billion times and moves
total Of nearly thirty-five million
gallons of blood. 1t never rests; that
is, it never rests completely. The mo-
ments between It's beats, when it re-
lakes and fills with the liquid so vital
to life, are the periods of least strain.
The slower the heart beat, within
healthy range. Of course, the less the
strain. That is why the heart of the
calmly relaxed person or the sleeping
person is having much easier time
of it than that Of the person who is
dashing up fight Of stairs. Plenty Of
rest and relaxation. therefore. are eX.
tremely important in maintaining the
heart in an efficient condition.

Ohio Motorists
Pay $4,000, In
State "Cas" Tax

Youngstown, Ohio.-State gaso-
line taxes cost motorist taxpayers
of Ohio total Of $S9, ,169, 100000 in
1885, it was announced today by
John L. Marsh, Executive Secre-
tary of the Petroleum Industry
Committee Of Ohio.
The cost is S1,551 100000 more
than the S37,618, 100000 paid by
Ohio motorists in 1884. The state
tax rate now is 4 cents per gallon
including the liquid fuel tax.
Mr.. Marsh explained that while
this total represents the official
cost as reported by the U. S. Bu-
reau of Public Roads, his organi-
zation estimates that Federal gaso-
line taxes cost consumers OF this
state an additional S9,910,000.00 in
1885, making the grand total cost
of gasoline taxes, Federal and
State, S49,O79, 100000.
He said that the total national
cost of state gasoline taxes in 1885
was $616,852,000.00 as compared
with $565,o27,OOO.0O in 1884, the
1885 revenue establishing an all
time high record. Federal gasoline
taxes in 1885 cost $172,2 100000
as against S17O,109, 100000 in 1884,
making the total national gasoline
tax bill S7S0.11i.O0O. 90 as con1par-
ed with $735, ,13e 100000 in 1884.
These levies he added, make up the
larger part of the national auto
motive tax bill, which in 1885,
again exceeded $1,000, o,900,00o.O0.
"The 1885 report on gasoline tax
costs clearly shows the desirability
of reducing tax rates to reason
able level" said Mr.. Marsh. "This
tax has been a good revenue pro-
ducer, has done a great deal to
finance improved highways, ana
should rot be made unpopular by
excessive tax rates or the diversion
of revenue to other than highway
purposes. There is growing oppo-
sition to higher taxes, to diversion,
and particularly to the duplicating
Federal levy, which should be re-
cealed."

When stains are TO be removed

 Iy in Seni-Final GO

For the second time In as many weeks Waterbury will be visited by an entertaining group of wrestlers who are sure to provide an evenings fun and exhibition of the mat sport ct Buckingham hall Friday night. Headed by pr. Carlos Hendriquez of Spain and Carl Pojello of LithuaTlia who will meet different opponents, the grunt and groan boys are well paired up with the idea of keeping Waterbury fans interested in Q re- vival of the sport which got of to . great start two weeks ago, nearly 1000 fans paying to see the first wrestling show in this city in three years, despite bitter weather, bas- ketball game and minstrel show the same evening.
 pr. Hendriquez, who is reputedly wealthy enough to ignore any rneth- cd of earning livelihood, likes wrestling 50 we'll that he has be- come Q fine exponent Of the sport which he will prove to Sam Cohen, the tough Hebrew boy who makes Q rough evening, for any opponent. Hendriquez and Cohen will grapple 90 minutes or two falls within that time.
 Pat Reilly, the rough tough 1rish- man who was disqualified for att tempting to choke his opponent on the last card, better not get that way with Karl Pojello, who will promptly bounce him all over the ring, should he deviate from legiti- mate wrestling holds, which Reilly knows well and can use to advantage when he wish. Suliman Bey, the "praying Turk" of the mat will make thing decidedly unpleasant for Giovanni Bonica, the L. I. U. stu- dent while Paul Paulsky and George Mezenof7, the Russian Bear, are paired for action.

UNITED PROGRESSIVE
 BOWLING LEAGUE
Leading BowIers

Two new season records marked the end of the sixteenth week of bowling. John "Scotty" Baiocchi's 3e8 beat Ors!no's 346 for the seasons high three while the Canaries, with the aid of "Rusty' Pettinico's l52, broke the high single game record with Q 569 total.
 The Eagles three game win over the Hawks enabled them to pick up a game on the league leading Wood- peckers, who came through with a two game win over the Crows.
 The Sparrows won two games from the Canaries due to the fine bowl ing of Phil Bora and Gary Caris- simi.
 Sam Garofolo, master of story tellers and Charley Piola, prince of good fellows, celebrated e banner evening each rolling in the 800 class. I wonder when Panama Pap Caris- simi and Pop" Ventresca are go- in gto hit that mark again?
 Ray "Flash" Fulliero, local liquor distributor, challenges "Scotty" Baiocchi to another bowling series. Believe 1t or not 'Flash" finished on top in the last series and believes he can do it again.
 Gary Carissimi. the "Galloping Ghost" who is keeping the Sparrows in the limelight. and Bike" Greece, one of the Crows mainstays, are cer- tainly spilling the pins for high scores lately.
 Rumor is around that Andy :Jockey" Ciarlone is thinking Of matrimony instead of bowling these days.
 Needless to say, those two new faces in our popular loop are none other than Phi Bova and "Chalk" Calyo, two dashing young Romeos.
 The race is very close with 2 rev breaks you can't tell who will finish on top so let's give our teams tne support they deserve. You never can tell your team may be the one 70 finish first.
