It has been pointed out that the United States suffers from fire to the extent of eight times that of any other civilized - nation. In some. measure, the rigid fire laws of cities have cut down this vast waste, but laws are not the exact medium through which to work. As Gover- nor Holcomb wisely put it, “‘an awak- ened public sentiment’” can do away with many of the causes of fire. It is to be hoped the teachers in the schools will take the task imposed upon them seriously and try their best to instill in the hearts of the young folk the horror of fire and how they can avoid disaster. Par- ticular care should be exercised in | impressing the boys about the danger of carrying sulphur matches, about smoking cigarettes in sequestered places and throwing the fire brands inta dark crevices. The young girls, the housekeepers of the future, should be cautioned against the danger of lace curtains draped too near lighted gas jets, against placing any inflam- mable material ‘where it might come in contact with fire of any sort. And having done all this, the teachers should then seek the co-operation of the pupils’ parents in a further car- rying out.of the idea. In this way it may be hoped that fires in the future will become rarities. It will mean a great saving to future generations ifithe youth of the present day learn these lessons well and have them firmly planted in their minds. GERMANY’S FINANCES. With all the ado about English ex- change at this time it is interesting to npte that no one has heard very much anent the money situation in Germany. This is due to the fact that the publication of foreign exchange rates is not permitied by Germany. In fact, it is a penal offense there to pay or even offer to pay a premium for gold notes of any other country. Not even bank or treasury notes are immune under this ruling. While the Paris and London exchanges are doing bus- iness and exchanges are posted in these two financial centers, the Berlin boerse is closed and quotations are forbidden. The bank of England re- deems its notes ir gold as it always does, while this medium of exchange is not even in circulation in Germany. Naturally one askes what Germany’'s assels are. Anyone who has traveled througn that country will immediately tell you that the most valuable assets Germany holds today are its govern- ment owned rzilroads. There are nu- merous canals and other properties that can be staked as a last resort. Financial men, as a whole, however, are somewhai afraid of the German system of gathering in their war loans. This because the saving banks and insurance companies have been practically compelled to subscribe for government loans and, as a result, the liquid assets of these institutions have been practically exhausted. It has been said, by those who know, that | Germany and Austria have been ac- tually borrowing money on their debts from their domestic creditors. This because of an endless chain sys- tem of finance that is in vogue. Baaks that were the first to purchase early issues of bondshave been au- thorized by the government to issue currency on the security of these bonds in order to buy later issues. That probably is cne reason why Ger- many is not looking for a loan from America.

New York, Sept. 17, 1915. To the Editor New Britain Herald: Sir: My attention has been called to an article which recently appeared in your paper to the effect that Mrs. N. A. Hooker has made an appeal from the decision handed down by Judge Gaffney of the Probate Caurt. My mother asking for a sum of money from the estate for the purpose of making some improvements to the old homestead where she spends the sum- mers. The article to which I refer stated that both Mrs. Hooker’s son and daughter made objection to her re- ceiving the monev from the estate. I wish it understood that I had absolutely no objection, in fact, the request most certainly should have been granted in any case, but in as much as the money asked for was to be used for the purpose of making improvements to the house which would have added materially to my mother’s comfort at her time of life, I am utterly unable to understand BRITAIN.

The shortage of dyestuffs occasioned by the war has brought Americans face to face with a revelation that 1s astonishing! It is found that the German dyes can be made in this country as well as they are made irn the land of the Teuton and almost as cheaply. Heretofore, the German manufac- turer of dyestuffs was held to be =l- most superhuman in his knowledge of the trade and we stood aghast at his magic. He made chemicles that were beyond the knowledge of any- one else. It was useless, trade jour- nals and individuals argued, to az- tempt competition with the German dye makers for they far outstripyed ull other nations in the quality of their product and in cheapness. Yet herdare chemists of the United Btates tackling the problem of sup- plying the American manufacturcrs with dyes and finding out every day that there is nothing extremely hard in doing what the Germans have dcne. The dyes that are needed are being made. More will be . made as the chemists solve the problems in their manufacture that the Germans have kept a secret for years. It is merely a repetition of the old saying that necessity is the mother of invention yet it is amazing to think that a world war is necessary to make us wake up to the fact that our re- sources and ingenuity are equal to those of any nation of the worlé. Fall Fashions in Women’s Hats. The October Woman’s Home Com- panion devotes seventeen pages ‘o fall and winter fashions. On the sub- Ject of fall fashions in millinery Grace Margaret Gould, the fashion editor, says in part: “Velvet, Fur, Feathers—these three proclaim the fashions in millinery for fall and winter, There is scarcely a hat for the autumn that does not show the introduction of velvet, if 1t i not entirely made of that material; and as for the trimming, it is bound to be of feathers, one kind or another, and often fur, too, is introduced. “Large and small, high and low, are the new hats for the autumn. No rather to suit the individuality of the wearer is the .aission of the hat this season. Well down on the head must be placed, with a slight dip to the right this y~ar without even the suggestion of a hairdresser.” That Old Bogey. (New York World.)

Lansing Heard From Before. (Washington Post.) “The elevation of Mr. Lansing to the premiership of the administration has buw\ locked upon purely as a promotion for merit, and very little has been said about * Mr. Lansing's record as a democrat, yet, consid- | cred 2s a political appointment, the naming of Mr. Lansing could not have been more fortunate,” remarked H. W. Walker of New York, at the New Willard. “Secretary Lansing’s appointment appears to have given satisfaction all around, but New York democrats who recall past political events are con- gratulating themselves and wonder- ing if the party has not found a gold mine. In all the reports about Lan- sing's elevation there was not one word said about the fact that Mr. Lansing earlier in his career was ex- ceedingly active in democratic poli- tics of New York.: In 1890 Mr. Lans- ing, then fresh from Amherst college managed the gubernatorial campaign of Roswell P. Flower and his brilliant success in that campaign causad such astute politicians as Senator Edward Murphy and Daniel J. Grif- fith to predict that Lansing would be- come nationaly prominent and -win great iaurels. Secretary Lansing is a resilent of Watertown, Senator Murphy's home and his early activi- ties attracted the attention of all par- ty leaders. That he has reached the highest porition in the president’s cabinet is not a surprise to those who followed his career.” “Support” For Father. (Waterbury American.) A writer in the Milwaukee Jour- nal describes the satisfaction e found in seeing a young girl, 17 or 178, perhaps listening quietly and at- tentively while her father told a story she had heard often. “One sees so much of inattention and smirking deprecation of father’s or mother's hobbies that it was a pleas- ant thing,” tlie writer says. “We credit that little lady with far more than mere good training, with the right kind of heart.” This is not so exceptional as it seems. It is no longer good form to ridicule father’s repertoire. It is everybody's cue to look interested and laught at the right place. It is like stage acting. Everybody has 'his part and father himself does much better for the en- couragement. Besides, it makes the guests have a better time and gives them so much better an impression of the family. One of the small but useful hypocrisies which we acquire as we slowly learn to live together on pleasant terms is to give fatiner the proper “support. Lansings Not Extremists. (Brooklyn Eagle.) The wife of Robert Lansing, who succeeded William Jennings Bryan as secretary of state in President Wil- son’s cabinet, has not much use for grape juice, and after a diplomatic dinner at which old and good wines were served, she said, or is quoted as saying: “Wine will be served at all diplo- matic banquets where the Secretary of State is host. Mr. Lansing and I are not extremists in the advocacy of temperance.” This is true feminine frankness. In an age of international aggression against King Al¢ohol, an age which sees France banning absinthe. Ger- many discouraging beer, England frowning on spirits, Russia promhlung vodka, Italy checking the sale of her own wines to her own people, an age in which prohibition seems sweep- ing on over the United States, and in which total abstinence is certainly more prevalent than ever before in our history, Mrs. Lansing disdains hypocrisy and declines disingenuous- ness. Even those who do not agree with her are compelled to respect her position. Yet we may be permitted to doubt whether the pernicket virtue of a vast though heterogeneous mass of our electorate will tolerate any disagree- ment with its views. It is perhaps as well that Robert Lansing is not a candidate for the 1916 nomination If he were a demagogue himself, which he is not, the unshrikingly sin- cere partner of his joys and sorrows would make his demagogy vain and useless. Mrs. Lansing is no politi- cian. Mr. Bryan’s Twelve Roads. (New York Evening Post.) Some Eastern press reports seem hardly to do justice to Mr. Bryan's consummate plan for real military preparedness broached at a tent meet- ing in Chicago the other day. Twelve military roads across the country for mobilization? What Mr. Bryan really advocated was a network of macadam highways 12 miles apart, covering the country from north to south and from east to west. The demands of our militarists, he says, call for an ex- penditure of five billions. For four billions we could build these roads, and when the hour of national danger struck in no time | at all ““we could work our combined | itelephones and have 1,000,000 farm- | ers ‘in their motor cars’ at a dozen | points of mabilization.’ Rome, he might have pointed out, was as far from having such a system of high- ways as she was from having tele- | | phones and automobiles; yet see what prestige the Roman roads have al- ways enjoyed in the history of mili- ! tary affairs. The highways—espe- | cially. if built after the excellent | Shackelford plan for a national high- ! way pork- barrel—-would represent not | a cent of money wasted and along - their geometrical pattern the crops of the nation could be moved with speed and precision.

Some day some sensible man or wo- man will write a book called ‘“Home | Philosophy.” There will be a chapter on the philosophy of washing dishes—with- out making a mess or getting mad. | There will be a chapter devoted to i making beds without mountains or | valleys. There will, of course, be several | chapters about good health and air. The woman who fills her home with | knick-knacks will receive a gentle chiding; and the man who litters the house with tobacco and ashes from his pipe or —cigar or cizaret will re- ceive a mild scolding.

When this book has been written, if it is well done, the authar will find hlm%elf (or herself) immortal. and will Mothers-In-Law. (Meriden Journal.) When the mother-in-law began to be tabooed in all the funny papers we | imagined that it was because the edi- tors had realized that the jokes were in bad taste and not founded on fact. However, we now learn to our surprise that mothers-in-law are still making a lot of trouble in the world. In a case in the court of domestic relations at Chicago, the judge said \n his decision: “It is a case of too nuch mother-in-law,” whereupon the \ssistant state attorney exclaimed: “Mothers-in-law are menacing the efficiency of the court of domestic re- lations. Seventy-five per cent. of the quarrels that come before the court could be settled amicably if the moth- ers of the wives would stay at home; the court should rule that no moth- ers-in-law be allowed in the court room when their daughters’ cases are being tried.” That prosecutor was doubtless much excited when he made that re- | mark. He let his tongue run away with him. We do not believe it is nearly as bad as he says. As a rule mothers-in-law are among the finest people in the world. They are more kindly and thoughtful than most peo- ple. It has happened that a son- in-law has been insulting and abusive to his wife and then, of course, her mother becomes indignant and the son-in-law rightly gets a piece of her mind. A son-in-law that turns his back on his wife’'s mother is no good. 200 Bushels of Corn an Acre- (Waterbury Republican) It is possible by selection of seed, good cultivation and fertilizing that is not too expensive, to raise over 200 bushels of corn per acre. It has been done in Connecticut and elsewhere many times, but under farm condi- tions sixty bushels is big and fifty bushels good and the average Is be- low that. Some years azo, Jerry Moore, a fifteen-year-old boy, living on a farm in South Carolina, joined a corn-rai ing club for boys and girls and cor peted for a prize. By following the expert advice which was furnished from headquarcers he astonished his | native state by raising 228 bushels on an acre and establishing a world's record- The facts were indisputable, because the department of agriculturs started the corn club movement and vouched for the figures. The next year, there were 75,000 boys and girls, mostly boys and most- ly from the south, enrolled in the corn clubs and learning how to grow 100 to 200 bushels to the acre. Their fathers got interested too, and paid attention to the methods which made it possible for a boy to raise 228 bushels to the acre. The result has | been startling. Within three years, the | scene was taken up before the ap- | treated scurvily and kept up the ap- | port made public | family corn crop of South Carolina jumped from 17,000,000 bushels to 50,000,000 bushels the crop in Mississippi doubl- ed and the avarage yield per acre has markedly ‘ncreased in every one | of the fifteen southern states. i It has largely been due to Jerry | Moore’s sensational exploit which has | been well advertised. Various organ- izations have “toted” him from Bos- ton to Seattle to tell about his suc- | cess while the harrow which he used | was exhibited as an attraction at the Natijonal corn show and other simi- | lar gatherings. We could do with a few Jerry Moorcs in Connecticut. This | state buys a million dollars’ worth of | When Neilson Quit. In “Forty Years on the Stage,” the author, John H.
