many noted individual artists from other cities and towns in Connecti- cut.
 In addition to the art display which promises to be one of the largest and most varied art exhibits to. be held in the state there will also be large display of arts and crafts collected from members of the Connecticut Arts and Crafts so- ciety in this city and vicinity. A large collectors exhibit of rare and beautiful articles of the unusual kind will also be a feature.
 Among the artists who will ex- hibit in the show will be Dorothy Dresser, a deaf artist who is fast gaining prominence in the field of art. A Connecticut girl, she has often ben compared to Helen Keller as she has developed to a consider able degree the talents she natur- ally possessed in spite of her handi- caps. She does paintings and black and white work that shows ability in no small degree and it is rapidly coming 70 the front.
 Dorothy lived her very young life at Scarsdale, N. Y., her father being a New York broker. Some twelve or more years ago they moved to Woodbury where they occupy the attractive home called Wing Chair situated four miles north of Wood- bury on the old Washington road.
 A young girl of eighteen, she has been deaf from birth but she has been able to develop the power of speech to a point where she can talk understandingly and she lip reads with great readiness. Hts work clearly shows great deal or artistic talent and she is developing it rapidly against all handicaps.
 The coming event affords an un- usual opportunity to local residents to see an outstanding collection of exhibits.

BY NEWMAN CAMPBELL.

IN THE FIRST reference in the
lesson, Amos 6:1-6, it speaks of peo-
pie that "that lie upon beds Of ivory,
and stretch themselves upon their
couches, and eat lambs out of the
flock, and the calves out of the midst
of the stall:
"That chant to the sound of the
vioi, and invent to themselves instru-
ments of musick, like David:
''That drink wine in bowls and
anoint themselves with the chief
ointments; but they are not grieved
for the affliction of Joseph"
Eating the lambs out of the flock
ed very extravagant indeed to the
came from their flockS.
The idea of drinking wine from
bowls, too, is quite extreme, as if
wine glasses or goblets did not hold
enough for these old wine-bibbers.
Peter begs the early Christians to
be careful how they act and not to
be unseemly in their talk or actions
because he is afraid the unconvert-
ed ones will not think much of the
Christians, dearly beloved, I be-
seech you, as strangers and pilgrims
abstain from fleshly luSts, which
war against the soul:
Having your conversation hon.
est among the Gentiles: that where
as they speak against evildoerS, they
may. by your good works, which they
shall behold, glorify God in the day
of visitation"
In other words, Christians are tc
set good example to those outside
the church, SO that they may the
more readily accept the teachings OF
Jesus.
Temperance, of course, does not
mean just abstaining from alcoholic
drinks. 1t means that we should moi
eat too much or speak hastily anC
without thought, or do anything tC
excess.
In the days of the disciples anc
before that there was not the dan
ger in drinking too much or ever
in eating too much that there is to-
day. Food was simple for most o1
the people, and they worked hare
| outdoors with primitive tools, anC
needed more food to keep then
warm and fit. There was not the
danger to others, either, when per-
sons drank too much that there is
in this machine age, when one be-
fuddled with drink may run some
one down in his automobile, or get
himself killed because he is too un-
steady upon his feet and cannot
think fast enough to get out of the
way of train or speeding QUITO. Or
working with machinery, man may
get himself caught and badly hurt.
There are SO many more ways in
which drunken persons today may
injure himself and others that it is
wise to "look not on the wine when
it is red," as the Bible says. Statistics
prove that drunken drivers and
drunken pedestrians cause far toe
man accidents.
In Proverbs 1920, it says: "Be not

Crowd OF 5000
Welcomes "Reds";;
Yanks Yell 4 Straight
BY HARRY FERGUSON
UNITED Press Sports Editor

Cincinnati, Oct. g. CUP)-The
Cincinnati Reds came home today
and found out that all was for
given.
An eager, shouting throng of
5000 waving remnants as red as a
dipsomaniac's nose, cheered the home
town boys at the station despite the
fact that they have dropped the first
two games of the world series to the
New York Yankees.
On another train came the cocky,
staggering Yankees predicting they
would be quick on the kill when the
series resumes tomorrow. DiMag-
gio and company are confident of
four straight and they want to get
it over with so they can get to their
autumn hunting and golf.
Managear Joe Mccarthy of the
Yankees will not announce tomor-
rows pitcher until late today-after
the team works out at Crosley field.
No such problem bothered Manager
Bill McKechnie of the Reds. He has
Junior Thompson, youngster one
year old of the minor leagues, and
a prayer.
It was not exactly a funeral train
that carried the Reds home this
morning. McKechnie believes his
boys still have a chance to snatch
something out of the disaster that
overcame them in Yankee stadium
yesterday and Wednesday. He
thinks the Reds lost the first game
on bad breaks and were defeated
in the second because Monte Pear
son performed his customary au-
tumn trick-came out of sick room
to pitch one of the greatest World
series games of all time.
Mayor James G.. Stewart Of Gin
cinnati, spoke for the town and the
ball team when he got off the train
and announced:
Wee only started to fight"
Streets leading away from the
stadium were lined with people.
Some women carried babies and held
them high above the crowd to catch
a glimpse of Ernie lombard, Paul
Derringer, Harry Craft and the
other local heroes. Boy Scouts, some
Of them wearing red jockey caps,
marched and footed away on bugles,

Today's Sport
Parade
BY HENRY McLEMORE
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

/
Cincinnati, Oct. 6. (UP)-The
suggestion has been made by more
than one fair-minded citizen that
some sort of handicap be worked
out for the New York Yankees in
order that the National league
teams which meet them in the
World Series each fall will have q
chance.
At the risk of being stoned on
the street, here in this town where
the Reds are revered and looked
upon as race of be-flanneled
supermen, must admit that I
think the suggestion is sensible
one. And I believe that even the
most rabid devotee of the Reds In
this city would agree, too, had he
witnessed the first two games of
the present World Series in New
York.
To date the Reds haven't won q
game. In two games their total of
hits is six and of runs one. The
YankS, on the other hand, have
won two games, made Is hits, and
scored six runs. This superiority of
the Yankees in World Series COM
petition with National league clubs
didn't just start day before yester-
day. They've been butchering Ma
tional league team for several years,
and OF their last Is games have
won %. incidentally, two of the
three games they have lost were
won by Carly Hubbell, which Just
goes to show what a helluva man
out there on the mound or Carlos
was.
Several means of handicapping
the Yankees have been suggested.
One man, obviously follower of
the horses, suggested that they be
made to carry lead, just as q stake
thoroughbred Is made to carry
weight to bring him down to the
stature of platerS. This isn't so good,
however, because the YankS could
still win on home runs into the
stands on which they wouldn't have
to run.
Then there were the obvious sug-
gestions, such as limiting the Yam
KEGS to two outs an inning instead
OF the customary three; making Joe
DiMaggio bat one-handed; allowing
the opposition batsmen to call for
the kind Of pitch they wanted, just
as they were allowed to do in the
olden days; starting the Yankees
opponents with three runs: limiting
the double plays Of Gordon and
CroSetti to two game; making IL
compulsory for Dickey to skip, not
run, between bases; and the Yankees
to play Berger In left field.
These are all very good, but
don't think that any one of them
would completely offset the advan-
tage the present New York machine
has over the other teams If it were
left to me to decide what handicap
to impose believe would make the
Yankees and the other team choose
UP sides before the game started.
Take the game that Is to be played
here tomorrow. Fifteen minutes be-
