TWO BOYS INJURED ON BRANFORD HILL
A mooting of buslncis men ot the six Shore Line Towns from Bron-ford to Old Saybrook wa.s held Wednesday evening at tho Madison Town Hall. The purpose of the mooting was to get clarified the new regulations regarding the use ot shore roads and the dimming of lights and to determine whether or not shore businesses can be operated this summer.
Curtlss S. Johnson of Guilford, Editor ot The Shore Line Times, acted as cholrman of the mooting. '.
Dana L. Davis ot the Connecticut Defense Council, formerly ot Pine Orchard, was present and a n swered questions. Ho explained t h a t the ;regu!atlons were orders of the War Department, and their purpose was protection against submarine at tacks. He said t ha t war depar tment representatives are a t present studying the situation, and t h a t further orders will soon bo Issued clarifying the situation, and probably establishing zones. Business can continue In the shore area and the shore roads can still be used for automobile travel, provided the comunltles cooperate In observing the regulations and subject, of course, to the dimming of all lights.
I t was the feeling of all present t ha t everyone should cooperate In every way in these precautionary measures. The group voted to hold another meeting after the further ruling of the War Depar tment Is received.
Thirteen from the Branford area at tended the meeting. Mrs. Lydla B. Noble, Miss Lydla Noble, Mr. and Mrs. Clair S. Bradley, Donald W, Smith, Walter H. Palmer, Charles Madeira, H. D. Stra t ton, Addison Bradley, Louis Rltzlnger, Clifford Collins, Robert Beat ty and George Coleman.

POLICE CHIEF URGES CAUTION ON ROADS
Chief Christian Woehrle issues a warning against riding bicycles after dark and parking especially all night parking at the curbs during the present almout.
Cars, he says, must reduce speed to 20 miles an hour and travel with parking lights. This increases accident hazards.
Eliminating roadside parking and bicycle riding, should decrease tltiit' iiazard. He also urges that all night driving be reduced to a minimum.

MEN WANTED -
UP TO 98
On April 1, the Detroit News published a "Wanted — Mule Help" advertisement which read;
Wanted: A-1 toolmakcrs, experienced
jig and fixture inspectors. Age limits, 45 to 98 years.
But it was no April Pool joke. "That 98 years," said Albert
P. Koepcke, personnel director for the United- States Naval Ordnance plant of the Hudson Motor Car, Company, "is no misprint. It means what it says. If an 4-1 toolmaker or jig and fixture iu-speotor is still able to work or to instruct younger men, wo want him for war work evei\ if ho is 100, We don't want nioii to slay away because.they may think they are too old."
I t a policy of employing older men for aH-impurtant war work is sound, ee,vtuiuly blanket disoriin-inations against workers over 40, or even over 00 and 70, in peace time occupations, soem to be un just, if not unwise.

THESE LE/yKS IN OUR CEILINGS Since last year this time tlio cbst of most thiiig.s we consumers
buy has risen ten percent or more, Pood bought for a dollar today would'have cost only 84 eonts a year ago. And so it goes with other produ.cts and services that wp need.
Pood is a)i isolated examplcj but it indicates a trend that is dangerous to tlie security of ever.v one of us. For these price rises are the straws in the wind of inflation, and that wind is steadily growing stronger. In almost every field prices have crept \ipward and upward—a few cents here, a dime there. In spite of the efforts of: the Oificp of Price Adininistration. to control that trend, we consumers hayp been cpnstantly givi)ig ground in our. battle to keep the cost of living down.
I t ' s going to bo a tough battle to win, but ^ve.can,^yin it if we're willing to do what must ho clpue, That'niuch is certain. At the.beginning of the war tho Canadians were faced wjlh problems of inflation that were pretty much like oiu's, and they won. By placing an overall ceiling on all wagcfj, salaries; services, rents and; virtually, evoi-y-thing that has to do with the life of the nation, they found the solu-tipii tliat has halted the iiricc rise in their country. The prices and wnijes that np>y prevail in Canada were cstiiblished by sellers and buyers,themselves, and by employers and employees. They have not gone up in several months.
At the present time we here in this.couiiti'y have price ceilings, but the trouble with our.s is that there are a great many leaks in them. AYe are trying to keep prices doiyn by preventing a relatively few 'commodities from going above a certain figure. Wages, farm prices and the costs of mos t products, however, are not cpntrpllcd. These keep edging higlier, aiid, as they rise, they pulj the cost of living' up with them.

WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS
BY JAMES PRESTON
'TTHE war emergency may be used as a smoke screen behind which
to scuttle basic principles of the American paetnt system.
A bill (S. 2303), on which hearings are now being held, would give tho President power to.selze patents and the government the right to license them aV royalties It stipulated. The bill Is ostensibly a "war measure,!' but defenders of the patent system wonder why no provision Is made to 'limit the major features of the bill to the war or emergency period.
To Informed observers It looks like a renewed attack on property right In invention, a principle generally held to be basic to the American Industrial system since the days of the Yankee tinker.
Similar attack was made at the Temporary National Economic Committee (TNEC) hearings a few years ago, and proposals for compulsory licensing have repeatedly been considered and discarded in the last 30 years.
Normal international p a t e n t agreements which have contributed to the desirable flow of scientific knowledge from country to country to peacetime are now held up as acts of " treason, and the benefits America has received from agreements which give us the results of advanced research hi other countries are ignored.
A long list ot top-flight industrialists will be called from their war production duties at horfie to spend days under cross-questioning at the patent hearings. Everyone agrees that every invention which can contribute to victory must be fully utilized in the war effort. Industry proceeds to produce under them, without fanfare or headlines.
/CONGRESSIONAL Observers say • that the spectre of John L.
Lewis Is the biggest current factor in forcing the much ballyhooed labor union truce between the CIO and the AFL.
They point out that both the Murray and Green camps fear that the third labor union party movement of Lewis may dr.aw from their own membership and that he may be "able in 'time to challenge them seriously. •
They alsp fear the objective for which Lewis is working—the organisation of dairy farmers, the inclusion of all chemical employees In this union, and the extension of organizing activities to many other types of workers. They see Lewis building • a powerful union of workers and farmers—In other, words, a new Farmer-Labor movement on a national ija-sls.
In opposing Lewis' new union activities the CIO and the AFL have the support of the American Farm Bureau Federation and many other farm o.rganizations that also fear what Lewis may do to their organizations.
VTORE good news from the pro ductlon front — output of
metals and minerals in the United States set. a new. high record in 1941, accordnlg to the U. S. Bureau of Mines. Production of domestic aluminum, magnesium, zinc, iron ore, gasoline, petroleum, and coke set new records. : In addition to this, news that the automobile Industry is two months ahead ot schedule in converting its plants to war production ,is being welcomed here as indicating the victory trend that is apparent in American factories today.
Further evidence of ths trend lies In the fact that American shipyards have launched 2 cruisers, 18 destroyers, 5 submaries,.and 112 merchant ships—aiid all of them since Pearl Harbor.'~ '

Claremont, Calif. March 20, 1942
Editor, Review: Doubtless the Incandescent elec
tric light was used at Yale during 1884 and 1885,'but I did not see one as I was taking the Chemistry course.
Graduating In 1885, I went to Humboldt, Iowa, to begin my work as a teacher. Humboldt was a small, new town of 1000 Inhabitants and the electric light had not yet reached Its d\yelllng5. The following year I was at Waterloo, Iowa, and only the arc light was hanging over the streets there and in the theatre.
While living there that year I went over to Ames, to visit the State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. There they had a dynamo and all the college rooms were lighted until 10 p.m.
Being somewhat weary I tunied in a't nine, and found an electric incandescent lamp hanging by a cord over the foot of the bed. The cord was looped and could be carried wherever one wished his light to be. At that spot it did not conduce to sleep. I looked for some place to turn It off, but found none so I placed the bulb in the bureau drawer and was happy in dreamland very soon.
Relating this experience to an engineering friend he was able to thrill his audience at a banquet by relating it. And so many Iowa people come to California I now meet peoiJle who had heard that story. One said that he had heard the account several times and was glad to meet the man who did it •
A small boy asked his father if Edison invented the first talking machine. The father replied: "No, God did that, but Edison Invented the first one ypu can turn off." About my first hearing the phonograph was one morning at church, pur minister was preaching on "God and Human Destiny," and he said, "My people, let us pause and let God speak." While we i^ore listening for the fall of the proverbial pin, "up tho street came in a raucous tone the voice of the still imperfected machine, the phonograph, singing "In the Good Old Summer Time."' ' At the Centennial Exposition in 1870 I saw a buggy with an invention by a woman. There was a handle within easy reach that enabled the driver to disengage the horse from the vehicle by a pull upon it. The horse, which the Bible says "is a vain thing for safety," could thus have his runaway experience all by himself.
An uncle of mine who delivered milk in the city at an early hour invented a.device that consisted ol an alarm clock that would drop a feed of oats Into the horses's bin at any given time, so Uncle had another half-hour's sleep before he hitched up. 'The city paper recounting this said; "A lazy, but ingenious farmer of North Haven has invented a machine to feed his horse while he sleeps in the morning; he Is now engaged in making a machine to feed himself while his hands are in his pockets."
In the horse-and-buggy days of the 90's, in the cold winters of Iowa I formed.a few gadgets of my own Just an arm's length from my bed as a chain that I pulled to raise the draft on the furnace in the basement. Then I pulled a string tliat closed the window with u bang. Soon the rooms were com fortable and I dressed for the day. Then there was the horse to be fed at the barn. I went to the back kitchen and there pulled another string and I heard Dobbin walk forward to- the oats that had been dropped into his bin. After the waffles and bacon, and coffee I donned mittens and fur coat and went to the barn to harness Charlie and was soon on my comfort 'able way to the college, nearly two miles distant.
A youngster living across the street said to his mother, "If I on ly had some of Mr. Page's strings to pull, Ute would be swell."

Residents of the area hit by the edict were immediately urged, to comijly with regulations apd to dim out lights. The following suggestions are offered l;o those In the areas: pedestrians wear light clothes.
Pull shades on shore side of all buildings. Extinguish or shield all exterior lights. Drive on shore roads only when aboslutely necessary, at a speed not inore than 20 miles per hour; and with dimmed headlights. Extinguish pr shield all signs visible from Long Island Sound. Commercial establishments and institutions located-on or hear shore line should provide means for obscuring or shielding all illuminated windows , and openings.
Light-colored shades used on windows are termed sufflolent.
The establishment.of an Eastern military area covering the entire Atlantic peaboard from Maine to Florida as a wartime security measure was announced Sunday by Lieutenant General Hugh A. Drum, commanding general of the Eastern Defense Command and First Army. •This means that here will be direct military control over all. coastal lights in an effort to prevent, fur-, ther silhouetting of ships arid, their consequent destruction by enemy submarines.

SPEAKING OF - HEALTH -
BY DR. VICTOR G. HEIEER
WATEU AND HEALTH If you had to choose, whicli would
ypu elect: lo be entirely without water or without food for a week? It_ you choose to be without water ypu would have made the wrong choice—for you would probably be dead before the end of the week.
It is barely possible, of cour,sc, that you would still be alive if you
.happened to eat copiously of foods heavy in water content and didn't Ipse top much ot It because of hot v^eather or hard work. But it Is tar rnore likely that, without lots of vvater, • you could not swallow the
-food at.all. and..that,you would not siiryive.,
The' human, body cannot live without water .
Water is essential element lor ridding, our bodies of wastes and toxins which must, under penalty of death, be remdved. In this process we lose seme two auart-s of water a day in perspiration alone, This must be replaced. .
Our bodies are 70% water, our blood 90'/J>, even our bones 40% and our brains 85% water. V/e must not let the water supply run low in our bodies any more than in tho radiator of bur car.
Many people do not drink enough water fpr optimum health. Nature compensates for this to some extent by the fact that mast of our usual foods haye much water in them. Milk, for instance, is about 88vi. water. Fish'is 81% water, strawberries 90%,;asparagus 94%.
Eight. Glasses a Day A healthy adult requires three or
four quarts of water during the course of 24 hours.
To keep.4ip', with the body's demand for- liquid and yet more liquid, drinking the ' efjuivilent of six to eight glasses.of lla.uids—including water, tea, milk, coffee and other beverages—would not ordinoriiy be too much. The rest of the water we need is supplied by our so-called "solid food," which in realil^ so often is mostly water.
When should one drink all this water? My answer has always been: Mostly when you feel like it.
There has been a lot of talk about
not drinking water with your meals becausp some oeople think It dilutes the digestive Juices and spoils or re-lards digestion. There Is much evidence to show that this "dilution;' is harmless an that it docs not interfere with digestion. If you want to drink water with your meals and suffer no ill effects therefrom, by all means do so.
Too much water, however, may bo as bad as too little—bad for the kidneys and for the blood pressure, which Is Increased. .In general, let your thiivst be your guide. I am a great believer in Mother Nature and her ability to tell us what to do and what not to do by her warning signals and her all-clear signals.
Mail's Best Friend Because water Is essential for vig
orous good health as well as for life itself, it lias been called "man's best friend." .'• •
It is also "woman's best friend.' For syater is a great natural beau tifler! It helps remove the poisons from our ' bodies that accumulate from body wastes, thus bringing |to the body and mind a feeling of health, happiness and well-being.
It helps io clear the blood of,impurities and to niaintaln bright eyes ancl, a clear, pink skin. By removing them otherwise, it lessons excretion of body poisons through tho skin, thus helping to avoid skin blemishes and to maintain the"skin you love to touch."
This is by no means the whole story of-why you need to drink six or eight glasses of water a day in addition to the water you get in your food. But now you know why many people, Including • myself, drink plenty of water every day.
Probably the •most profitable investment U. S. communities, large and small, have made In recent years is purification of their water supply. By filtering and chlorinating the v.'ator, typhoid fever, that for-, mer great. scourge -of the human race, has practically been, eliminated as a menace to the public health.
Just one admonition: Make sure the water you drink from wells and uncertain sources wlien on vacation is safe and pure. If in doubt, in-ciuire cf the local health authorities. It's worth while.

ADVANCE ALLIED BASE, Australia, April 20—American soldiers, playing baseball and pitching'hor.se shoes at this northern base whore the Yankees and the Australians are working in smooth harmony, forgot their pastimes when an alert sounded.
Men ran to their anti-aircraft stations, and at the aircraft detector system good-looking Australian girls worked side by side with American soldiers, plotting the course that unidentified approaching planes were following. .
Quickly the alert was over. The planes had been Identified as friendly, and the glamour girls of the Australian air force were smiling and at their ease. The women are members of the woman's Australian air force, khaki clad and as efficient In their work as they are neat in their uniforms.

Fo'r' instance, "glassed" will appear for the first time In new editions of loading dietidnarles. Because women have' been purchasing more and more fruits, vegetables and other food commodities Jn glass, they have begun to ask for glassed food when shopping; Hence a new definition of the verb "to glass—to put up in a glass Jar or Jars, as to glass fruit or vegetables."

It's due to a Pullman car shortage that daily becomes more acute as America's war effort swings'into full stride • . . as more and more cars are required for long disfqnce troop movements.
Increased demands on the supply of Pullman cars allocated to civilian needs has resulted, at times, in a short-ago of accommodations... a situation not al woys appreciated by many of our patrons seeking last minute reservations at peak periods,. In peqcetirne, this condition v/ould^ undpubfedly be relieved by the addition of riec^sspry cars. But Pullman space thesf days is truly a war commodity, and frequjently there are no extra cars available.
We of the New Haven Railroad are sincerely, exerting evpry effort tp supply the type of accornmodations to which you have been accustomed. But if you can't'alwoys get a, lower, we hope ypu will understand.
May ,we suggest that yo.u. make your reservations and purchase your tickets in advance . . . and that for the benefit of those who may be on'waiting lists, you release accommodqtions promptly jivhenever you charigp your plans?

Who can buy a new car — and how to go about it For the specific purpose of miiintaining essential pubiic functions and assuring the successful prosecution of the war effort, the government is permitting many to purchase new automobiles.
Those eligible include physicians, . nurses, ministers, persons encaged in
certain civic services, and all persons directly or indirectly employed in the prosecution of the war.
Due largely to misunderstanding, only a small part of those entitled to buy a new car are taking advantage of the
government's regulation—which had behind it the patriotic purpose of enabling such people to replace worn and inefllcient cars with modern, economical transportation.
If you are in any way—directly or indirectly—connected with a war activity —or ij your present car should be replaced —come in and we will help you determine whether you arc eligible, and then help you get a "certificate of purchase" o n a new Pomiac.
AVAILABLE AS A SIX OR E I G H T IN ANY MODfiL
(j^m^ THIS IS NO TIME to be penny-wise and ,^fBpJ^ pound'foolish when buying a new car.
Choose one that has a long<estabUshed reputation for dependability and economy— choose a Pomiac.
In the past few years, Pontiac has won hundreds of thousands of new friends—largely because of its unfaltering ability to perform with minimum upkeep expense and maximum gas and oil mileage. And the 19-^2 model is no exception—in fact, it's the finest Pomiac ever produced. It has the finest Poi\tiac brakes—triple-sealedall around.
It has Pontiac's exclusive Triple-Cushioned

Ride and scientific weight distribution to assure supreme comfort—ami maximum tire mileage! And it has that fine-car look and feel everybody wants. Yet it 's still priced just above the lowest and can be purchased on convenient monthly terms.

60,000 Women Must Volunteer Their Services For Paid Jobs In
Connecticut
Full time and part time workers needed in Connecticut fac
tories, offices, farms, stores. Men from these jobs are being
drafted. Their places must be filled by women to keep up and
speed production.
Plans are being made to release the mother with children
for part time.
Registration of your willingness to train for these jobs will
take place immediately after you sign for your sugar rationing
cards, at the six elementary schools May 4 to 7, 4 to 6 and 7 to
9 P. M.
On these cards you are able to state the kind of job, hours
and location desired. They are simply an inventory of available
woman power.
• This does not bind you to any job. You will be called for a
personal interview by the New Haven State Employment Agency
before you are offered any job. Do your bit wiUingly, so we do
not have to be drafted.

Don't give the engine more gas than it can digest, I Don't accelerate too rapidly. •equently, the only result of
.in extra burst of speed is extra pressure on the brakes a moment later.
Don't drive fast unless you ' re really in a hurry—and even then stop to think if the time saved will be worth the extra wear on tires and motor, the extra cost of gas and the increased chance of accident.
Slow down before entering a curve. Then accelerate, but not too much. Your tires don' t have to "squeal" to be unhappy on a curve. ' '
Slow down on rough roads. Your springs may be able to take it, but your tires can't.
Don't s tage a climbing test on every hill. Your gears are there for a purpose.
Don ' t coast downhill. I t ' s poor economy. T h e cost of wear on brake linings is likely to exceed greatly the amount saved in gasoline.

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINTS
The Soap Supply and the War
- B Y Dr. l a m e s A. 7oboy -
Dr. TanvB A. Tobo7
SOAP Is necessary for the high standards of cleanliness which
miist be maintained in wartime for our health protection. I t Is
grat i fying to report, there-fare, lliatthero i s n o w n o s h o r t a g e of s o a p i n t h i s country.
Nor is there any likelihood ofsuch a shortage during the n e x t year or m o r e . T h e r e win cont inue
to be plenty of soap, because this cleanshig agent is a by-product In the manufacture of glycerine, base of many vital munitions.
Glycerine is used In making dynamite and other explosives; and in the preparation of paints,
ledlclnes, and other necessary : oducts. We must have tremend-iis quantities of glycerine for
war needs, and the more of it wo niake, the' more soap we shall have.
Housewives can aid tills cause In , two ways. One is to retrain from making soap a t home, sUice this process wastes needed glycerine. The other Is to save all surplus kitchen fats and grease, and sell them to meat dealers.
who will promptly transmit OK • Ingredients to manufacturers Jo production ot precious glyccriui: and soap.
Since plenty at soap Is available, tliere sTiould be no hoarding ot this product, and no reduction In batlilng, laundering, or other cleanly personal habits, Wash your body and your clpthcs as o f t e n a s b e f o r e , p e r h a p s oftencr.
Frequent bathing Is an Import a n t hygienic measure, as Is even more frequent washing of the exposed par t s , of the body. Tlio hands, for example, should always be washed thoroughly with .loap and water before eating and after leaving tjie toilet, Clcanllr ncss of the face and skin promotes an attractive complexion and reduces the chances of certain infections.
Water alone will not effectively remove dirt, oil, and germs from our bodies, pur Barn)ents, or our eating utensils. Soap and hot water will do so, because the soap makes an emulsion with the dirt, which aids In Its quick and complete removal.
Today's soap may be a, llttlii less slippery than in the past, btcauso every last fraction of glyeerln« will be out, but It will do an equally gbod Job of cleaning. )>on't curtail your uso of toap.
Bob Hope And Madeleine Carroll Get Chased In Hilarious Fun Film
Patrons of the Paramount Theatre are in for a hilarious session of flrst class fun come Friday, when Bob Hope, Madeline Carroll and Percy, the Penguin, open in the sea.son's speediest cops-and-robbers comedy. The picture is Paramount ' s •'My Favorite Blonde.''
According to all repute, the team- ' ing of Hope and Carroll was an in spiration. Listeners on Hope's radio hour are thoroughly familiar with his expressions of unbounded admiration for the beautiful Madeleine. Hes been calling her "my favorite blonde" on the air for years but nobody seemed to h i t on the obvious and cast them together In a picture until Pa ramoun t bought a- story called "Snowball ln"Hell," a rolicklng yarn of a h a m vaudevillian who gets mixed up wth Nazi spies. Tlie character of the gorgeous British secret agent seemed made to order for Carroll. With the title changed and Hope cast as the bewildered actor, the result was "My Favorite Blonde," fastest and most furiously funny of the Hope epics.
The picture is a chase pure and ;simple but with a stepped-up tempo tha t makes for furious fun, a perfect fllm for Hope's brand of fast comedy.
Fast Comedy Chase Matching in speed and laughs
the highspots of "Nothing But the Tru th" and "Caught in the Draft," the story of "My Favorite Blonde" sends the Hope-Carroll-Percy combination on a thrill ing cross-country race t ha t s tar ts in New York and ends In Hollywood. Before it's over Hope Is wanted for murder, robbery, misrepresentation and a flock of other crimes. Including evading arrest. He drives an oil truck, swipes a bus a t a union picnic, flies a monoplane tha t ' s shot a t in the air, spends a night with Madeleine in a freight car, outwits the Nazis murderers and, finally, takes a wild ride in a hearse with a secret mili tary message tha t sends a flight of 150 American bombers on their way to Great Britain.

A word about Percy, the Penguin! Trained by Captain Ralph Luxford, Percy perambulates in and out of the picture and steals more than one of the .scenes even from the champion scene stealer Bob Hope. Watch Percy. | He's destined to go places In the nim business and we'll miss our Bues.s it he doen't t u rn up in another picture pret ty soon.
