 To Late 7rdnscript Manager

 Esteemed Father

ticai newspaperman he left noth- ing to be desired. His rules and regulations will be followed be- cause they were as wise as human intelligence could make them.
 John Kelly, if polonuis will par- don us, waS true to himself and false to no man. He spoke the truth and acted the truth. Pro. fanity never escaped his lips. He hated it aS he hated strong drink. He was Scrupulously exact in the treatment of his ern- ployers. His employees were trcat- ed with unfeiling justice, and they were expected to make the same return. The trait of character which waS most outstanding was his rugged honesty.
 Some years ago the writer was introduced to 6 New Britain gen. tleman as editor of The Tran. script. He immediately remarked that we had . friend of his in our ofilce. When I was chairman of the board of public works, he said, John Kelly was my strongest and most reliable assistant. He cooperated In every measure that made for the placing of the city government in honest and honor. able hands. Had you not stolen him away, we would have made him mayor of New Britain. The gentleman spoke with confidence, and as he was . reformer and the nephew of Governor Cham berlaia, we were all satisfied that he could have made good his purpose. Political New Britain needed Q strong man, man of irnmovable honesty, and had John Kelly been placed in the mayors oftace that city would have had what 1t needed.
 An ideal mayor he would have been. Every abuse would have been corrected, the best interests of the town would have been served and no man could have been found to say that any thing savoring of crookedneSs was being winked at. Honesty in politics and honesty in every walk of life was what John Kelly stood for and insisted upon. He was e model citizen, Q model husband, Q model father and a model Christian.
 Yet never did he pose. He had c keen sense of humor. He could appreciate witticism even if the unbending would demand some- thing more ennobling. Sanity pre- vaded every hour of his day.
 Perfection is not of this world. The man who aims at perfection stands out among his fellows, and he is worthy of whatever of ap- preciation his friends are able to afford Manager Kelly was hon. ored in this ofiice. His asso- ciates owe him much and they knew how to show their gratitude now that eh Is gone. John Kelly was as near right in all his relations and in all his deeds as any man whom the wri- ter has ever met and observed. The world is better because he was permitted to live and labor here for three score years and three.

Good and evil planetary aspects

against deceit and sharp dealing.
The stars urge both men and wo-
men to take much thought before
making decisions of any sort. The
Judgment may be inevitable, owing
TO a certain aspect of Neptune.
Disturbing and disconcerting ru-
Imors may be widespread. Propa-
ganda CT many sorts will confuse
men and women who should be
staunch in their adherences to ma
Cionanl ideals.
Women who devote attention to
their homes are well directed un-
der this rule of the stars which en-
|courges hospitality. This is an aus
picious date for refurninshing rooms
and for buying household luxuries,
especially electrical appliances.
Young folks may expect romance
under this direction of the stars.
Dances are likely to be extraordin-
Iarily successful from the average
girls point OF view.
Reforms and changes of policy
now will make many who guide
public affairs. Persons in authority
may expect bitter criticism and de-
termined opposition.

tons, particularly the violations Of
the liquor laws covering sale of
liquor to minors or drunkards and
the frequenting of beer and dance
halls by minors, we called various
witnesses before us for examination
and questioning. In view of the con-
flicting testimony along these lines,
we would recommend and suggest
that the individual be compelled
70 secure a permit for the purchase
OF liquor and that no sale be made
TO the individual without such per-
NIT. This would meet the situation
and place the blame where it be-
longs. Such control of liquor sales
would avoid the uncertainty of pro-
secution for liquor law violation. In
our opinion this could be done by
having permits issued by the United
States Commissioner, who should be
paid nominal fee from the sale OF
each permit
We recommend that dancing be
prohibited in beer parlors.
We therefore request that the
situation as outlined and the recon-
mendation herewith be brought to
the attention of the Legislature now
in session at Juneau for its favor
able consideration.
In conclusion, we wish to thank
the various officers of the Federal
Court for their cooperation during
our deliberations"
