 FOR CITIZENSHIP
Superior Court Holding Naturalization Session;
 Judge Cornell Presides

United States Naturalization Ex- aminer Daniel F. Mahoney, assist ed by Paul Pearsall, both from Bos- ton. are examining applicants at the naturalization session in superior court today. Presiding is Judge John A. Cornell.
 Approximately 100 applicants for citizenship papers who had previ- ously applied for naturalization un- der the old law were expected for examination today. The present session marks the first occasion m which naturalization has been con- ducted in superior court. This jurisdiction had been previously delegated to the courts of common pleas.
 One of the provisions of the new law makes it unnecessary TOT ap- plicants to have witnesses at the time of examination. These must appear at the time applications are filed.
 While naturalization work pro- ceeded slowly this morning, 1t was expected that the number of ap- plicants would be more than doubled this afternoon.

Keepers of bees in Connecticut are reminded that the state re- quires registration of apiarieS on or before October 1 of each year. The town clerk of the town in which bees are kept reports regis trations to M. P. zappe of the Agricultural Experiment Station at New Haven, who Is in charge of inspection.
 The Connecticut statute reads:
 Each person owning one or more hives of bees shall, annually, on or before the first day of Octo- Der, make application to the town clerk of the town in which such bees are kept, for the registration of such bees, and such town clerk shaoll issue to such applicant a certificate of registration upon the payment of a recording fee of 25 cents, which certificate shaoll be in the form prescribed ard upon blanks furnished by the State En- tomologist and shall be recorded in tn office of such town clerk . [. Any owner of bees who shall fall to register as required by the pro. visioni of this section shall b fined not more than five dollars" 1"
 The registry and inspection of apiaries Is a measure for protec- ton of hives, MT. zappe points out. Bees are subject to bacterial diseases that are easily carried from one hive to another with consequent heavy loss,
 The state, therefore, requires registration and sends three in- spectors to investigate conditions all counties each year. Diseased hives must be destroyed, Tn le40, l7le apiaries containing e,552 col- onies ewre inspected, according to MT. zappe's report. Of these, 366 colonies In l6l apiaries were in- fected with American foulbrood. The disease was most common in

The voice was that of Lee Hart.

Terry had plunged forward, his

Hart went down, and Terry was on

his hairy throat to prevent an

peace treaty ever maintained, and
each war more terrible than the
last. And unless the hearts of men
are changed they will go on forever.
No Sign of Change.
How are they to be changed?
There is no sign now of a change.
The enemy is always to be defeat
ed. The victorious peoples must be
allowed to dictate the terms of
surrender.
And then We'll all turn good and
holy again, and there will be God S
peace upon the earth. Then in
deed we will love our enemy, for
give them that hate us and despite

but overcome evil with good. All
this we are prepared to do-only we
don't mean to begin until some ma
tons are smashed.
To talk this way is sheer bias
pheny, and it is folly to expect help
from on high while we indulge in it.
But Gods ways and Gods peace
are as near us as ever, and if any
worried and harassed woman wants
to prove it she can do so easily by
lifting her thoughts quickly to infinite
goodness and understanding. This
need not mean kneeling down, or
Withdrawing oneself from the thou

all distressing and fearful thoughts

I believe in the possibility of
world peace and world friendship.
I believe that the billions wasted on
war could be spent to build so gen.

and security that poverty and idle
ness and ignorance and injustice and
slums and disease and crime could
be lessened, and lessened steadily
until they vanished from the world.
Hate Can Be Overwhelmed.

hate, it had only been the ignorance
that masks love. I believe that all
peoples have innate good within

women have, and that if we could
once stop this mad race for arma-
ments, this panic of fear, this inter-
national selishness and greed, there
would be more than enough money,
food, service, sunshine and Joy in
the world for us all.
Believe this, and when you lift
your heart In prayer, say that you
believe it. When agitating thoughts

Chemical for Lard

chemical which would delay the
spelling of lard by oxidation and
would protect lard's linoleic constitu-
ent, rich in vitamin F. They finally
found what they wanted in gum
guaiac, made from the sap of the
tropical American guaiacum tree.
Swift's President John Holmes said
that lard treated with tiny amounts
of gum guaiac was odorless, bland

happy today are those who
= believe in the infinite power
and goodness of God, and who
ask Him, with the faith of chill
dren, to bring good and peace
and brotherhood out of the sad,
mad tangle into which men have
gotten the world.
This doesn't mean that only
Clergymen, rabbis, monks and
nuns can claim today that inner
sense of security and confidence
we call faith. One doesn't have
to renounce the things of the
world or join an order to find
God. He is, as we are taught as
children, everywhere. He and
the infinite peace and rest of His
goodness are close beside us all
the time. We have only to turn
to them and receive them.
But the worry and pressure
of the times are SO great that
many women today don't dare
stop to pray. They get them
selves into absolute frenzies
of fear, hate and resentment as they
take in news reports, and argue
breathlessly with anyone and ev-
everyone who will listen.
The talk that goes on at family
dinner tables today is enough to dis
rUpt even the most devoted groups.

abandoned fires. For thousand

whose sons and daughters have in
