century a teacher in the local schobls and since 1909 principal of the Jefferson avenue school died yesterday at the Teter Bent Brigham hnsiftal at Boston Her death came as a great shock to her many friends in this city for although Miss has been out of school fpr about a year on leave of absence she was expected to resume her duties next month Miss O'Neill though a woman of quiet tastes had a far reaching influ ence Born in this city the daughter of the late John O'Neill lack of any immediate prospect of cessation that precipitated the call to headquarters and the officers' arrival The

es on Service at Christ Episcopal Church Rev Vernon Losee associate rec tor of Christ Episcopal church re turned with his bride to this city Sat urday after a wedding trip He con ducted the services at Christ chuich yesterday He based his sermon on the story of Jtsus washing the feet of his disciples and on words who would be great among you must be the servant of all" It was the ambition of the disciples and their desire for greatness Mr Losee said that led Jesus to do as he did By that act of humility Jesus showed that humility and service should be used in dealing with am bition Mr Losee continued not a bad thing' Jesus picked the most ambitious men of his time Mis spent ambition is bad The secret of Christian greatness is to be the serv ant of all There is no need in this ageto talk of the advantages of service hut we cannot stress too much the fact that service should not he limit ed to partisanship or cliques We should serve all "Be ambitious in a good way Let It be an inclusive ambition placing gen eral welfare above personal interests A cheap ambition is easy of accom plishment A great ambition is diffi cult to accomplish but it is the only one worth The movement to have the memo rial to Springfield's war veterans take the form of a municipal struck' a snag yesterday when Maj Gen William Hayes former com mander of tho 104th regiment strong ly questioned both the propriety of such a memorial and the prevalence of veterans sentiment in favor of it "An airport is not a suitable memo rial as it is rightly a municipal proj ect concerning all the people of the city and having no particular connec tion with the men to whom the me morial is to be reared" Gen Hayes declared "Thon there Is the addi tional consideration that the various veterans organizations of the city ap pointed a special group some time ago to decide the form which this memo rial should take" committee brought back the report to the general council of which I was chairman that a building to house all the organizations would bo the best memorial" the gen eral pointed out "and the funds re turned by the state were let lie dnr mant xvith this In mind Such a build ing would he in my opinion the most' desirable memorial to the vet erans' of all our wars and I hoe that the present agitation for an air port 'will not cause people to forget that 'the veterans have already ex pressed a preference for this Thinks It lit Memorial Gen Hayes made it Clear does not oppose an airport predates the importance of having an airport hut he is pressed with the idea of combining Springfield's memorial to her veterans with this airport project rederick Jones president of the Third National bank ajd chairman of the war memorial commission does not gree with Gen Hayes with re spect to the fitness of a memorial air port1' believe that it could be a suitable memorial provided that itwere pre eminently a memorial and not a commercial Mr Jones said last night "This was a city government proposition original ly and I see no reason why the city should not consider this a fit memo rial We have been somewhat mis represented however It has been made to appear as if our committee could go ahead and vote an airport almost immediately but we will have to find out more about public senti ment before we can do that With Gen Hayes and the head of the Amer ican Legion in this city disagreeing you can see the difficulty of pleasing only attitude now Is listening' Mr Jones explained Is onl yone thing about the airport that I would call attention to In looking at tho chart of air lines in The Union Republican this morning I wondered it Springfield is a natural stopping place on these lines If we aren't in the running I wonder if our building an airport would make any difference That is something peo ple interested in tho airport should look into I think" tor sale eight weeks old John 1 Elm StrAdvertlsem*nt Mrs Mrs Elizabeth Garvey 34 wife of Patrolman William

fathers will vote to accept the streets with the possible exception of the road up Snnd hill which unlike the rest will require a large expenditure to make it fit for travel Another matter which may cause discussion among the members of the board is the question of a permit for a gas station on Center street just below Exchange street A petition was refused at that point two years ago because of
