Here is how he stated the matter then: “War is harsh; it is attended by hardship and suffering; it means a vast expendiMure of men and We may well pray for the coming of the day, promised in the Holy Writ, when the swords shall be beaten into pruning hooks’; but the universal peace cannot come until Justice is en- throned throughout the world.

(Ansonia Sentinel.) Secretary Lansing tells us that the pranks and plots of Captain Boy-Ed do not contravene the principles of in- ternational law as far as they concern shipments to German warships on the high sea. He may be right." But one can imagine that some other of the secret activities of this pernicious gentleman are not only a V! international law but of all diplomatic usages and of common decency. It is not conceivable that international law | or any other law allows an amba: dor or attache of a friendly nation to have bombs placed on ships in Ameri- can harbors or to blow up by proxy munition factories.

Al- together, it seems (o be a conspiracy on the part of the almighty hen to de- fraud the public. The fact seems to he that most hens will not lay at the present time. And yet up at Storrs college they are demonstrating that the right kind of hens, properly fed and housed, will continue to lay in winter at a sur- prising rate. One of these real layers will produce more eggs in the adverse winter season than an ordinar; ‘scratch” hen in the summertime. If we have cheap eggs in winter, these Storrs enthusiasts who are show- ing the way to better hens and more intelligent handling of poultry will Le largely responsible for it. Safety First.

At the recent meeting of the Connecticut Editorial Association, a speaker, in an address on “Legal Ad- vertising,” concluded by paying his respects to the signpost “Just one thing more, the sign post, emblem of antiquity.
