TICKETS GO FAST
 FOR COMEDY GAME
Brothers to Catch for Rival Teams in Benefit
 Here Saturday
WATERVILlE Correspondent-Mrs. R. w.. Heni0n, Telephone 3-5462

Waterville, July 31-The town is all steamed up. This basbeall game which will take place at the Water vile park August 3rd, between the Old Timers is just about to be moved to Ebbets field in Brooklyn, and played under the lights, because the sale of tickets, SO far, has exceeded the seating capacity of the New York Polo Grounds.
 The Chase Metal Old Timers are out for blood. They are sore, and there is no question about 1t and this year they claim is the year They have everything; speed, poise and practice. And hitting power, what power; every man in the line up a potential 400 hitter. Possibly some of them haven't come up to that mark, but still the potentialities are there.
 In the event Ebbets field is not available, the park department will be called in and plans to transfer the game to the Waterbury munich pal stadium will be discussed.
 The brother act of the year will be offered, when the Gagain brothers, Hank and Eppy, step behind the plate on opposing teams. This is just the start of it.
 Henry (HookbalD Wagner is due to be chased to the showers, if all the predictions of the Chase team mean anything. MT. Wagner is quoted in an interview as having made the statement, "Ill mow 'em down." The Chase team says, If there is any moving to be done, we'll do it."

cred to have had sufficient cause for quitting in anticipation of such discharge, it was ruled by Commissioner Thompson in Case 122-C-40: Evidence indicated the claimants personality was charac- terized by a certain gentility and naivete which led to odd incidents in and around the place of er1- ployment. On one occasion the claimant found a stench bomb in his pocket and on another 8 harmless bomb exploded under his car. The day after a St. Patrick's Day party the claimant came to work dressed in a Tuxedo, starch ed shirt and boutonniere, work ing all day in that attire. His general conduct was 8 source of considerable mirth to other en- ployes and led one customer to refer to him as "glamor pants" "A leaving in anticipation of a discharge is with sufficient cause in the absence of wilful mfscon- duct on the employees part" the commissioner stated. Admittedly the latter's behavior in some re- spects was peculiar but the gen. eral situation in the store prevents me from labelling it as wilful mis- conduct"
 Sufficient Cause
 A young man who was employed for four years as window trim- mer with only one advancement in salary, from $l0 to $20 per week, was held to have quit work with sufficient cause despite the em- ployer's statement to the effect he probably never would be an eff1- cient window dresser and was re- tained chiefly because of honesty, personality, and other valuable qualities. "The case is one of a round peg in a square hole and sufficient cause for leaving exist ed," the commissioner declared. "On the other hand, if as the claimant states he did not lack skill in window dressing then the long hours were due to other fac- tors for which the employer was responsible, and the pay was in- adequate in view of the time and skill which the job necessitated." !" (99-C-4O.
 One the contrary, Commissioner Verdon ruled in Case 55-E-40 that 8 window trimmer who failed to act on the employers suggestion that he takes a day or two of oc- casionally to seek other employ ment while retaining his connec- tion, and who quit because he was dissatisfied with his salary of $24 per week, did so without sufficient cause. In this case the claimant had been employed for 16 years and although given occasional overtime work, for which he was paid, he claimed he was put to considerable expense in commut- ing from Bridgeport to Water bury.
 A former telephone operator and factory forelady who lost 2. pounds within two months after working as chambermaid quit with sufficient cause when her physi- elan advised the work was too strenuous. (100-A-40).

Rehearsal Tonight

A rehearsal for fifers of the Casper s. Davis drum corps will be held to- night at 2 o'clock at the drum corps rooms on Thomaston avenue. This will also include the girl members who have recently joined the drum corps. John Woidloski will be the instructor.
 A rehearsal for the drummers is called for tomorrow night, at 2 o'clock and on Friday evening 8 re- hearsal for all members of the corps will take place at ' o'clock, in prepa- ration for the state meet to be held on Saturday, at Thompsonville.
 In response to an invitation for girls IS years or older to join the local drum corps, fifteen have now become members and places are still open for others from Waterville or Waterbury who are interested. They are asked to attend any of the re- hearsals or the regular meeting on Monday night at o'clock.
 The local drum corps was well represented at the American Legion convention held in Norwich this past week and they participated in the parade on Saturday afternoon. The heat was so terrific however, that following six miles of march they were forced to withdraw, and several members were completely overcome. They received medical attention along the line of march. However, it was necessary for several to be taken to the hospital. Many recov- cred quickly enough to return to Waterville Saturday night with the other members, but it was necessary for few to remain in the Norwich hospital for several days.

The Problem of Forgiveness
Matthew 18:21-35, for Sunday, Jan
II:
Christ had been giving instruc-
tion to the disciples on the grace OF
humility, the upright life, and how
to deal with sinful brother, all OF
which furnishes an introduction to
this lesson.
". q. "Then came Peter to him,
and said, Lord, how oft shall my
brother sin against me, and for
give him Till seven times? Peter
would reduce forgiveness to deli
mite measure but Jesus opposes any
attempt to define by law the mea-
sure of grace.
". %. Jesus saith unto him,
say not unto thee, Until seven
times: but until seven times seven.
Jesus did not mean to prescribe any
special number but to show that the
measure of our forgiveness should
be practically unlimited. Forgive
ness must be practiced whenever oc-
easion arises.
v. %. Therefore is the kingdom
of heaven likened unto a certain
king. which would take account OF
his servants" The kingdom or
heaven is used in a broad sense in
which forgiveness plays a large
part. The subject of forgiveness is
so important and involves such a
practical way Of living that 1t Is
best taught by an illustration.
