Guarding Home Of Gov. Hoffman SOUTH AIVLBOY, N.J., Jan. 20.-- Police Chief David Quinlan disclos- cd today a 24-hour guard has been posted at the home here of Gover- nor Harold Hofiman. "Publicity given to alleged threats against the Governors family led us to take this action," Quinlan said. "While we know of no such threats. the reports that they had been made may put the idea to do harm into somebodyks head." A plainclothcsman watched at the house last ‘night and trailed Mrs Hoffman and her three child- ren to the theatre. The children are Ada, l4,»Liily, nine, and Hope, four. Governor Hoffman, however, was reported tonight to bc investigating the part ployed- in the Lindbergh baby case by Morris Rosner, named as intermediary soon after the kid- napping march l‘, i932. The Gover- nor was understood to be interested in knowing whether Rosner had the original note found in the nursery and, if so, to whom he displayed it. During the habcas corpus pro- ccedings before Circuit Judge J. Warren Davis Tuesday the defence charged the first ransom note, con- mining the mysterious symbols, was in the hands of other persons be- fore subsequent notes were received. Testimony at Hauptmanrrs trial, the defence said, was that the first note was never out of the possession of state police officials.

Dr. McMahon, who gave a very helpful address on “Some Phases of Boys’ Work," stressing the point that no boy is inherently bad, but that, in order to protect him against evil assoc- iations, recreation facilities should be provided, with the end that they may be kept from lives of sin, pure, spotless and good. Rotary should co-operate with existing organizations to this end. Rctarian Norville Luck was in the chair. Miss Lillian MacKenzie brought with her a. group of boys, who fur- nished n. musical entertainment. A vocal quartet was rendered by Alexander Large, Billie Moreslde, Irving Saunders and Franklin Maclnnis; s. duet by Clark Mac- Auiay and Jimmie Morris, with Miss MacKenzie pianist. Elmer Gallant rendered s. solo, with Mr. Alfred Doucette as pianist. J. F. Sierns, a. new member was in- troduced by Rotarian Neil D. MacLeen, and the Rotary charge read by Rotarian W. Stewart.

Ncwadys everybody seem to have either a clock or a watch- Goodness knows, why right in your own home are no less than three- one in the living-room, another in the library and still another out in the kitchen so Bridget can tell just how long to let the dinner cook without burning! And, it seems. nearly every grownup carries a watch. Grandpa and Papa and Uncle Will and the policeman and the husksler and—oh, most every- one! But it was not always so. Indeed. there was once s. time when peopip “told" the time of day in the queerest of ways imaginable. The first clock was not invented until about the middle cf the fourteenth Century: and it, possessing but one hand, was made by ‘a German named Henri de Vic. In this crude clock of his a large vtheel was kept in motion by a weight gradually unwinding by a. cord whiclhinturn, moved a. bar cormected with the wheel. A long time ago-much than two thousand ycars--a cer- tain ruler inventcd the sun-dial, which, as you have probably heard, in a dial on which the hours wcrc marked off in a circle, and on arm or quadrant was so placed upon this dial that its shadow fell upon the marked-off hours successively XIiOTC as the sun worked round in the heavens. When the day was a. cloudy or rainy one, of course, there was no sun and the people could do little more than guess nt the time Then, in the days of good King Arthur of England, people burned candles of the same length both night and day. When one candle had bumcd out in a certain length of time, another was straightflvay lighted and it too was supposed to burn for the same length of time, when another was lit-and so on through the hours. As a matter of fact. however. the candles did not burn with regu- larity, for as you well know your- self, a" draught or a sudden gust of wind makes s candle burn more rapidly than in still sir. To obviate this, a shade was placed around the candle. About a century sfter de Vic bad invented his weight clock, another German named Peter l-ienlein hit upon th_e happy ides of keeping the wheel in motion by coiling s. ribbon of steel around s spindle. parts of lilnope until clocks to Innewllot the And from then on. improvement after improvement wls made in various began (III Curdigzun Young People Present. Successful Play Audiences at Cardigan and Bridgetown have been delighted last week with the excellent presenta- “The Red Headed Stepchild”. The play was performed by the Young People of Cardigan under the aus- pices of St. ‘ Andrews Young People's Society. Very favorable comments are heard everywhere on the splendid acting of every mem- ber of the cast. the majority of whom made their debut as stage artists. The audiences were kept in splen- did humor from beginning to end, the loud chuckles and spasms of llaughfer being fine testimony to the good acting of the young people there was not a dull moment throughout the play, and it was put on twice at Cardigan. The story centres around s. 3011118 girl, Bess, who has been brought up by her uncle orn a western ranch. Her father is fit-married and lives in the big city. When Bess is almost 21 she comes to the big city but is coldly received by her step- mother and step-sister. Things do not go smoothly in the new home for the western girl and she d9- cides to retum to her ranch which she has inherited from her uncle. 3' Before she returns she has the 0p- portunity of helping her father and better relationships are established between Bms and the restrof the family. and to crown all she takes back with her a new hand who is also to be her life partner- The case of characters was as follows: Mrs. Russell (the step-motherl— Mary McAulay.
