Oh one sitio the debate was led by Mr. James Hlhes. 1 am not well acquaihl ed wllh ivir. ilines, and wlgh I was. Would be glad, to have him for o personal irlend, tor ni man like that Is a valuable man tbliave about lb watch tovvn affairs. He styled Jilrii-.sclt the "watch dog". Even it ,ohb does gpt the suspicion no'w and then that he may h? ''darlcerilng counsel with wpi-ds." Many a lawyer does that when his case is hot too strong. ., ..
I listened wllh close atlentloh tbi' half an hbur while iAt. Mines poihl-ocl out a great many ways hi which the town might save money, i did the beat 1 could to grasp ti)'e point ot his arguments. But when ho was
' finished, I got the iinpresslbn that to get at the real (acts wq-s !ii>post
|slble In fliiie statemoiVt; it wpiild be necessary to pall in tWenty-flve of more witnesses, apd .l)ave every angle of each case caretuUy explored pro and pijn, tp iind oiit how piuch worUi there was In it. Probably every point he i)roiight ui) would be vigorously disputed by those competent to do so.
I got another Inipresslon. It It were possible jo gave dii.6} th? pion-ey he mentioned, theti it points to one ot the gfeat llnanclal discoveries ot our time,' it Mr. Hiiies and the domooratjc, party were In charge of the town .affairs, and would go on saying the town money that way. It wpuid be bniy a short time beterc they would save .mp_i>ey _enough so there would be 1)9 need bf any tpwn taxes at nij., fnd?e(J, ttiey.might be so siiccesstul that after, a liltle .they [might begin to pay theyplers a dividend. And, It the idea cbuld only be passed on to ^Vadiliigton, It might save the country from com plete vuin, . . . .
As for getting "$56 every Friday" and similar schemes, this beats | them ali to pieces.
There Is almost sure to be a fly In the olntmenf spmewliore. As far as I cftn PQW rcccjllccli I .had to paV taxes when (iic democrats were in

Garden Notes New England's trees are one of
the region's most precious possessions. To assist New England tree owners to repair, where possible, the damage wrought by the hurricane, the iNew England Council sought tho ndvlee of Dr. Elmer Drew Merrill, director of Harvard's Arnold Arboretum. His suggestions, given herewith, will enable New England-ers to conserve many of the Injured trees still standing.
TILTED TBKES Until trees can be replaced, cover
exposed roots wllh wet burlap or otlier cloth. Dig a large hole on the side where tho roots are now exposed, and arrange block and tackle so as to pull the tree back Into Its normal position. Cover Its roots with good soil, tamp It down, and
years of age w^rc found damaged Meadow mice girdle the Wcc.s nt
the surface of the groiuid under cover of heavy grass or snow. A tree lives lor only two'years after being gti'dicd.^Plne mice work on the roots, or 611 110 the trunk Just below the Sttitnce of the ground. Trails of the pine mouse have been Iraeotl along a main root hon\ the trunk as far as 15 or 16 feel. When roots are bM'ked, Ihc Vtti cfthnol bear n payln'g crop bt fruit, and If the itiot damage Is extensive, It kills the U'ee.
Unseasonable yellowing of foliage which 16 frequently laid lo soil con* dltlons or sprays, may be the result of root damage caused by the pine mice. Wliler sprouts around the base of a tree may also Indicate

Bakers Add Apples To Flour Jo , . Improve Quality Of i Bread
Bakeries In the Pacific Northwest have developed methods tor adding apples to bread which are gaining considerable attention. ', One- tnethod, in production since the first of this year and used, or about to be used, by 20 concerns In Washington, Idaho and British vo-lumbla, consists of an apple sauce formula which permits the adding of 20 or 30 per cent apple ordln-5iry bread dough, without resulting In a soggy loaf. In tact, this heavy appte' content makes a light loaf, described as possessing good keeping qualities and as containing vitamins A. B, C, and G, There Is no apple taste In the bread, however. The formula was perfected by Werner lUer and Al Dorn of Wenatohee, Wash., and patent rights are pending. The trade name, "Appeal Bread," has been copyrighted. .Letters from European Countlres
have been received by the "Appeal corporation" for Information and baking rights.
At present, an "Appeal" mix Is being being prepared and canned ^or commercial distribution at a Spokane plant. The entire surplus of the Spokane apple crop was pur chased for cannery stock; and as future requirements develop, the use of apples Is expected to become an Important'factor for the mar ketlng of certain grades of North west, fruit. • One hundred loaves of bread require from 30 to 35 pounds of apples, and the corporations original bakery In Wenatohee Is using from 600 to 750 pounds of apples dally In piarjcet of only 16,000 persons.
Dr. H. H. Mottern, fruit and vegetable by-products expert for the Goveriunent, who Is at Pullman, said that apple compounds, added to bread leave an alkaline residue which counteracts acid. He notes, too, that they represent the only nutritious substance known that keeps bread from becoming stale. Previous difficulties with the baking of apple bread have been the resul-tatit sogginess unless only small por tlons ot the fruit were used.
Another apple-bread method was developed several years ago In Gal Itornla from experiments with powder derived from prunes, apples and other sofl fruits. The apple powder process was acquired by a group of Northwest persono who are planning the construction ot a mill In Yakiifia, Wash., for the manufac-tur.eof apple flour. It Is hoped to )iave a fal\l operating in time for use of sorne of this fall's apple crop.
Tlie apple flour will be used as a
blend with wheat flour. Tests have been applied In Yakima and Seattle. Every loaf ot apple flour will have the equivalent ot one large apple. Wlnesap apples were found to be especially suitable for the purpose..

planting operation. It Is Impossible to state the maximum size of tree which can be thus saved as this depends entirely on the strength and slEc ot equipment available for pulling them back, but certainly, those up to six Inches In diameter can be thus handled
WEAKENED TREES There are many trees now stand
ing which have been decidedly weak ened by the blow. If a branch is split, It may possibly be saved by boring a hole through It, placing an eye bolt through the split limb and also through a neighboring limb, and connecting the two bolts with an Iron rod or heavy cable. Each eye bolt should have the washer and nut completely countersunk on Ihe outside", thai the bark may Heal over quickly. Limbs should never be encircled with wire and tied to other limbs similarly encircled, as encircling chokes the -limbs and eventually kills them. On small trees which must be pulled back Into place. It Is well to pass a wire through a piece ot rubber hoso placed about the trunk In such a way as to support the tree on the, side toward which .It leans. This wire should form atj.,rather than encircle the tree trunk, with both erids of the wire attached to a stake.
TREE WOUNDS Broken branches should be cut
flush with the trunk, since stubs and stumps are sources of severe Infections Wounds larger than two Inches In diameter should be painted, and Jagged edges of bark should be carefully trimmed.
WOUND DRESSINGS Dressings containing asphaltum
are the best. Whenthese are not available, apply a good coating of white or red lead paint or orange shellac. A less conspicuous paint may be applied over any of the lat ter once It has dried.
SHRUBS Most deciduous shrubs will sprout
again from the base although they have been badly damaged by wind or falling trees. Cut the broken branches oft, even It they are close to the ground, and the cliances are the plant will recover by next spring.

$60,000 Fur Coat Now On Display A tur coat made of pells so rare

The coat, rtiade ot skins ot albino mink and Valued at more thah $00,000, Is tho property of Louis Rltter, noted collector of rare furs. It Is the only one ot Its kind Ip existence.

Losing five linemen upon" whom he counted heavily, the Dartmouth coach Is admittedly worried about his substitutes. "And It Is here that the Brown Bear, running wild once more, may chase the Indians back Into there teepee.
Upon their showing so far this season, the Browns must be rated highly In what promises to be the outstanding clash of the season on Memorial Field in Hanover. So great Is the antlcipa,(lpn for a capacity crowd In Hanoyer when the two teams meet that seating accomodations are being enlarged. Not since the Holy Cross game of two years ago has Interest run so high In the Green camp.
The Brown-Darthmouth series dates back to 1894 when the Bruins mangled the liidlans 20-4. Since
(Special to the Review) John Henry Lewis, light heavy
weight champion, who will defend his title against Al Gainer, New Haven challenger, at the Arena on Friday night, October 21, arrived In the Elm City from Pittsburgh Tuesday morning.
The champion was pre.cede.d by his Manager, Gus Greenlee; two sparring partners, "Big Jim" Thomp son and Honeyboy Jones, and Chief Frank Sutton. The party stopped for time In New Haven and then set out for Fompton Lakes where Lewis has established his training camp.
Last reports from Pittsburgh, J. Henry Lewis was down to 179'/j pounds and should have little trouble making the light heavyweight limit of. 175 pounds. Al Gainer, who seldom tips the beam over 170 will be down to his normal fighting weight of 168 pounds.
Gainer is workjng out dally for the title battle a t the Elm City gym with James J. Johnston and will have Phil Johnson added to his sparring staff today.
Andy Nledcrretler and Law Raymond, co-promoters of the championship bout, report a heavy demand for the best tickets and say that everything looks promising for a record-breaking house.
Greenlee and Al Mele, menagers of the rival fighters have already posted their $2,000 checks a t the of flee of State Athletic Commissioner Frank S. Coskoy In Hartford, for weight and appearance forfeits.
Many fans from Branford expect to take In the championship battle.
T h e Laurels have signed the Eagles of W e s t Haven as their opponents for their fourth g a m e of the season which will be played at H a m m e r Field Sunday af ternoon at 2:30. T h e Eagles, according to Manage r T o m Sudac, a t e a scrappy team which have (je.iten some good opponen ts , and they should give ''he green-jerseyed combine a hard tussle. "' • ' -
Last week's gabe against the strong Lenox team established the Laurels a s a great defensive outfit but their attack was rather weak. This week's drill on offensive plays under the watchful eyes of Coaches Harrison and Sokolowsky should result in a n Improvement In the a t tack of the Branfor(^ team
It Is probable t ha t the starting lineup will be about the same as that which faced the New Haven Lenox last week.
The green-Jcrseyed combine will hold a practice ag^ln tonight a t Hammer Field under the flood lights in preparation for this contest which holds much Interest by fans of both clubs as each team wants to prove its superiority over tho other.

12 To 0 Defeat The Stratford high school team

Stratford In last Sunday's game the Laurels;failed to convert both times. showed a sturdy defense tha t makes It seem unlikely tha t the West Haveners are going to push them around very much.
tha t date Dartmouth has taken the measure of the Rhode Island team 15 times with Brown adding 10 more victories. The lone tie, 10-10, came In 1896. Since the series was resumed in 1935 after a lapse of 5 years, Dartmouth has scored 116 points to 0 for Brown in three games. But when Tuss McLaughry leads his men onto the field, it will be a Bear of a different color. And the collective Dartmouth face will do well to escape without bearing a tinge of the scarlet from the surrounding hills.

Conn. State Plays Maine Saturday
< Sppoial to the Review) The Connectlpiit State College
Coftchliig staff hu.s every reason to bo happy about tho results of the athletic contests to date. Over the past week end Coach J. O. Christian's Varsity Football squad turned in their second victory by defeating Mass. Stote College, 19-0. The season record now stands two wins and no losses, In spite of the victory Christian was disappointed with the drive and precision of his team. Handicapped by the loss of Wilfred Roberts of Nprwlch and of Arnold SchwoLsky of West Hartford, both of whom have been called upon for signal calling duties; the team appeared ragged and uncertain In their offense. Christian was en-courged by the performance of several new men who were thrust Into the line-up in an endeavor to make nn Improvement. Henry Juan of Greenwich and BUI Booth of Bridge port at the tackle position and Stan ley Papanos of West Hartford at guard along with Henry Koch, an end from Waterbury showed great improvement and should make strong bids for the starting positions In the University of Maine game to bo played at Orono, Maine Saturday.
At the present {time the State traveling squad will probably be composed of Coach Christian, Assistant Coach Van Bibber, Trainer Carl Mann, and Manager Marshall
[Richards aiong with thirty players. |ThB squad will leave Storrs a t 8:00 o'clock Friday morning and will stay
overnight In WatervlUe, Maine, before going on to Orono the next morning.

Skill Design
Of 1939 Cars
Pontiac ' The in
Pontiac engineers have displayed skill and originality in the design ot three new lines ot cars for 1939 that combine the height ot fashion and good taste in modern streamlining and rich appointments with Im poi'tant mechanical Improvements that feature Dutlex rear springs as the greatest engineering achievement.
The Quality Six, a newcomer to the line, Is designed tor large production a t a low price. With Ave body models (Two and four-door sedans, business and sport coupes, and station wagon) of 190 inches overall length. It digs deeper Into the lower price field than any previous Pontiac.
The DeLuxo Six, with the same engine but longer chassis than the Quality Si.i, comes in Ave more fine ly appointed bodies. A cabriolet with two houpes and two sedans consti tute the line. Overall length ot 196 Vi inches makes it the longest six by four Inches Pontiac has ever built.
The DeLuxe Eight with its famous smooth running and economical straight eight engine, will embrace the same five body styles as the De-Luxe Six.
In the appearance of the three lines we find complete moderneiz-ation in the styling of hood, radiator, fenders .and body. Continuing the Sliver Streak through the cen ter of hood and radiator for the
fifth years as the central motif, there is more of a yatch-line prow to the radiator, which In turn is flanked on either side by chromed side grilles set into the front surfaces ot the fender catwalks. The radiator ornament serves as the locking handle to raise the alligator type hood.
Harmonizing multlbeam head lights are mounted on the front tenders. The Quality Six thus Is the lowest priced car today with three-beam headlights.
There is Increased vlsibilty tor driver and passangers alike in the new Pontiac which, of course, Is an added safety factor. In the DeLuxe Six and Eight models visibility is fully 25 per cent greater than in prevous models.

The selectmen's attempt to make the state saddle some of the expense ot repairing sea walls, washed out In the recent h u r r i c a n e -tidal wave storm has apparently failed.
Property owners In Short Beach have been approached by state highway officials In an effort to determine who shall pay the ex pense of rebuilding the sea wall near the school. Several propositions have been suggested, owners being opposed to undertaking the expense as their property is In no danger of undermining Some tear, jeopardizing the privacy ot the beach should the state, town, or WPA do the job.
