 Justice Harlan Stone doesn't be- lieve in carrying the suited dignity of his august judicial office into private life.
 One of the most homespun and democratic members of the Su- preme Court, Stone recently startled guests after dinner party by summoning his chauffeur with a piercing two-fingers- -in-the- mouth whistle.
 Boy. aln't that something" proudly boasted Amos Johnson, colored chauffeur who has been in the Stone employ for ten years. 1T can park three blocks away and still hear the Justice. That whistle is just as good as fire siren."
 The Justice is just as simple at home. When he wants his wife, he calls "Agnes, Agnes!" at the top of his very hearty voice,

As a parting gesture Tax Collector William A. Ennis, who has certainly proved to be one of the finest officials to hold this important job, reports to his superiors that tax collections have already surpassed the 95 per cent of the total levy which is demanded by law. Not only has the total amount of taxes col lected passed this figure, but by the end of the fiscal year it probably will be very close to a perfect figure. And that's better than good here in Waterbury. or recent years the best figure was about 92 per cent collection. And there have been some collections far below this. All of which indicates that Collector Ennis is finishing his administration in blaze of glory. He did not choose to be nominee this past month, but it's safe to say that when Billy" Ennis does conclude his stewardship of our tax matters, he will be accorded the tribute that his really worthwhile efforts deserve.

In New York

 B u t N e W Workers can be forgiven for in this town is assem bled as difuse an ar- ray of divini' ties as is gath cred, probably, in any other m e trop olitan corner of the Vs,npll
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-12-08

Worship of many gods in Goth- am is in itself an eloquent sermon for democracy. Though some may deride Dr. Robinsons Psychiana as a dubious route to Heaven, none will deny him the privilege of proclaiming 1t here. And in the same wise, many an esoteric faith finds its own small, fiourishing sect in Manhattan.
 BUSINESS LOFT"
 IS TABERNACLE
 For example, only a few who hurry by the prosaic building at Thirty-SiXth Street and Broad- way realize that instead of being a dusty business loft, 1t is one of the four Norman Tabernacles in Manhattan, branches of the faith that were extended eastward by the disciples of Brigham Young.
 A scant few devotees there are
 of the Vedanta Society, whose shrine Is in modest building on West Seventy First Street. A scant few when you regard New York's seven million people, for the Vedanta cult consists of four hundred parishioners who sub- scribe to the East Indian philoso- phy of gentleman named Swami Vivekannanda. He introduced his way of life at the Worlds Fair of Chicago in 1893.
 Only the other day bearded saethete of Long Island incor- porated his new faith under the laws of the state. It is his Temple of Aphrodite and he beckons to his midst those who see the god- dess in the light that he has wit messed her inspirationally.
 What that light is has not been made clear.
 There are 30,000 Chinese in the Oriental population of New York. It is estimated that one-third of their number is Christian. But a safe, conservative guess is that all the rest make obeisance to their respective Bhuddas by kindling the joss sticks before their shrines.
 FATHERS DIVINE'S
 FAMOUS FEATSTS
 While some of New York's "cult" religious go their quiet, unheralded ways. Father Divine's Heaven does not lack for the limelight.
 Father Divine's mass meetings often end with mammoth ban quets in Harlem ballroom or one of his "Heavens"--at a flat price, sans cover charge. His faithfuls don't waver, outwardly at least. in their trust that he is of provldential stature, although his Angel Mary waxed rebellious some time ago and slipped into limbo. The Divine devotee per- sists in his beliefs.
 Perhaps you never have heard of a faith known as The Liberal Socialists, except as a political faction.
 But there is a religion" by that name. Its flock convenes at the Labor Temple and the service de- mands that the orthodox sit for a long time before 7-foot pendu- lum which swings to and fro re- lentlessly while they chant some indescribable words and tunes. CAN'T LIST
 THEM ALL
 The odd varieties of worship in New York are too numerous, as a matter of fact for casual sum- mary. You would have to include those two restaurant fellows of midtown who, being of genuine Parsee stock. take time off at the traditional intervals, so they may worship zoroaster, ancient god of the PerSians.
 And then there is the negro church in Brooklyn which bears the name "The Glorious Pente- costal True Holiness Association"
