Elaughter there has been unprece- dented, but the character of battles | that stampeded an enemy by taking him unawares has passed away. The effectiveness of the flanking movement | has been seriously impaired. Why? | The soaring scouts carry meéssages from trench to trench, and the sudden | alarms that resulted in the routing of mighty armies became anctent history | when the modern engine and gaso- line enabled men to conquer the | regions of the air. Dawn of Coming Day. “What we have seen in these swift- winged | eaglé-eyes of the 'army or nayy s but the dawn of the coming day when. we shall make the heavens carry our war eraft'as easily as we | navigate the sea with our dread- noughts.” Secretary Danlels spoke of the mar- | velous development of the submarine end added: “Almost daily you are startied to read of the torpedoing of | a mighty vessel by these small under- &ea stilettos,” the secretary told the graduates. = “The submarine's pre- cision of aim, its deadliness of execu- tion, its ability to do its deadly work and’/disappear in a moment challenge the world’s wonder, Backbone of Squadron. “It seems only a few days ago that we' were wondering if the submarine would become a really important part of the fleet. Today many are serious- ly debating whether our glant craft will icontinue to be the backbone of | the squadrons that constitute a country’s protéction. . “The last congress expressed said, | no | its faith in the submarine by voting the & money to build twenty-six new sub- marines, three .of them to be sea- going of a size and power never before comtemplated. What of the future of this newest maval arm - He would be Umit its possibilities,” Self-Mastery Necessary. Secretary Danlels drew a lesson from the European war in pointing cut that the graduates In order to at- tain a high place of honor must possess, in addition to. other indis- rensibles, self-mastery. ‘“When the war is over,” he said, ‘“4he man most honorea will be the man who captured the citadel of the enemy. When his biography is writ- ten you will find that tne maval and military leader who emerges with | most glory will be the man who be- | gan his career by capturing and con- | tréling the citadel of his own body. and protecting it from the ravages of appetite and passion.

A few days ago State’s Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn scored Simons se- verely in the superior court, .telling Judge Willlam Case that the h<tel man was not a fit person to have a license. This was in connection with the sentencing of H. Wilmot Phillips, a New Britain youth. The state'’s attorney explained to Judge Case that it was at the Hotel Grand that Phillips first started to go wrong. He forged a check in order to buy liquor of Simons and when the latter found it to be worthless he had the boy ar- rested. This arrest disclosed-the fact {that Simons had been selling liquor to a number of High school boys un- der age and his own arrest followed. He was fined $75 and appealed but later paid up.
