The building was we'll constructed,
as the old-fashioned ones often are,
80 that even during the cold weather
a small stove in the basement kept
him warm and comfortable. 1t was
all he wanted. All his life he had
been a good little man, and good
little people don't want much. It is
the others, those who have forsaken
goodness, bartered their human kind
ness for a dollar here and dollar
there, or q hundred or a thousand
dollars, it makes no difference how
much, who want more and more, but
are never satisfied, only corroded by
their greed.
But Matthew did not think of others
in such bitter terms as these. He
himself was so essentially human, that
he did not understand that other men
had greed within them which they
fostered and pampered and which ate
the kindness right out of them. He
interpreted all life in the light of his
own small and unpretentious expert
ences. He did not question because
he saw nothing to question, nor did he
criticize.
MATTHEW did his work like good
workman in the factory where
he was employed doing much the same
thing he had done in many other
factories. Although he was going on
SO, his face didn't show it. He was
still unmarried because the girl he had
been in love with 20 years ago had
chosen some one else and Matthew
stepped quietly out of the picture.
That was all there was to it. She had
been the girl for him, she had married
some one else, and so Matthew hadn't
married at all.
Matthew was very appreciative of
the fact that he was allowed to live
in the basement of this three STORY
brick building at a reduced rental. If
the agent for the building tried to
make him pay more he would not be
able to do it because the work he did
at the factory wasn't worth much and
Che factory paid him accordingly.
Recognizing his advantages, Mat
thew took seriously his duties Of
watching over the building to see that
the plumbing and whatever else there
was was not carried away by the
neighborhood ruffians for the little
they could get for it. Many times,
being a light sleeper, he awakened
during the night when he heard noises
on the back porches of the house.
Pulling on his trousers, shoes and
sweater, and picking up club, Mat
thew went out to find the ruff1ans try
ing to steal the plumbing. The mo-
ment they saw him threatening with
his club they ran away.
X X n
TT NEVER occurred to him that for
the few dollars he was saving on his
rent he was endangering his life be-
cause Matthew didn't think that way.
When the agent for the building,
long thin man with a long thin nose
and thin lips, came for the rent and
Matthew told him about the maraud-
ers. he nodded his head vigorously
and growled, YAH" and he pulled
the corners of his mouth down farther

The local teacher attended Eng fisf High school in Worcester, Mass, and later graduated from the Teachers Training course of the Slate board of education at Yale university. Since his graduation lie has taught and been connected with various business concerns. He was draftsrman for the American Optical Co, in Southbridge, Mass, and worked as a designer both for the Stanley Works of New Britain and for the Farrel Foundry here ili Waterbury. He has taught school ili Naugatilck and in New Britain.
 Each year the graduating class at Leavenworth selects some member of the faculty and dedicates the year-book to him, or, as the case may be, to her. This years Selec- tipn was almost unanimous, for the man selected is one who is highly esteemed by the members of the class. This years book and the man to whom it is dedicated also tend to bring out the point Of tile theme, that of the relation be- tween students and local factories. There is probably no other person on the faculty there who has had as much practical experience in his or her line of teaching as has MT. Macl9iven.

PAYROLL ROBBERY PROBE CONTINUES
Martin Gilbert, 37, Sus= pect Under Arrest, to Be
 Arraigned Next Week

With Martin Gilbert, 37, back in Litchfield county jail today, state police continued their investigation of the Taft school payroll robbery of March 2 in which the former school employe was allegedly impli- cated. Continuance of another week was ordered for Gilbert, who ap- peared before Justice John T. Mil Ter in Watertown court last night.
 The continuance was granted at the request of the state, according to Sergeant Gene Lenzi of Beacon Falls state police barracks and Grand Juror Francis P. Flynn. The $5,0OO bond under which Gilbert is held was continued.
 According to the state police bar racks today there is nothing new" in the case and no traces of the four other men said to have taken part in the holdup have been found. Ac- cording to Special Officer Ted Harty, the bandit who hid himself in the back of Harty's machine had the assistance of four other men who accompanied his car to the holdup scene. Harty said Gilbert was oc- cupying the rear seat of car which preceded his car. Two other men followed in another machine, he told police. Gilbert insists he was not in Watertown on the day of the $2,- 800 robbery.

INTERNAL REVENUE RECORD INDICATED

Employees of the Waterbury office of the Internal Revenue department were enjoying a breathing spell after the rush period Of the last two weeks today, and reports from Hartford indicated that gains here and throughout the state would probably break records of several years in income tax collection.
 According to the office of Collec- tor Thomas s. Smith of Hartford, Connecticut may lead the entire na- tion in the percentage of gain in income tax collections over the same quarterly period a year ago. This has been indicated as 8 possi- bility in preliminary checkup.
