Chandler, compensation commis: for Hartford . county. The quartet rendered selections Mrs. Howard Horton favored solos. Mr. Chandler spoke in as follows: Hymns Are Warlike. “I notice that in ecven the hymns which we sing there is ever present the words which bring the minds to | the thoughts of war. History and | human experience show that a fight- |ing spirit has ever been prevalent. { The hymns in our churches bring out | the fact that war is an insistent con- dition. There is absolutely no rea- | son for us to believe the present war | will be the last war and therefore T favor preparedness. The fact that I 0 min- out at Sunday | | dist senting affirmative side of a debate by George sioner | church | and | with part | utes after scheduled time becaise of { the delay in the train facilities, | brought vividly to my mind that Con- necticut is ever dependent on the C03 mines of Pennsylvania for the means to keep its industrial wheels revolving. Connecticut, Arsenal of Nation. “Many of the gun factories and mu- nition plants of the country are con- | fined state. The ford, within the limits of our long of buildings in Bridgeport, Waterbury, New n and even in your own city are working on implements of warfare. This is the industrial center of na- tional proparedne: war should be dec power we would be the fir invasion. It has always been for think of the parts New rows ared by a foreign t objects o, thusy London | and New Haven played in the Revolu- tionary war. The wheels of industry of the country would stop if ever the invader captured the state of Con- necticut. We would be unable to ob- tain coal and it would be necessary to destroy the beautiful trees and woods to keep our mills going while fighting ‘against a possible invader. Changes In Three Ycars. “Who ever thought three ycars ago yvesterday, which was inauguration day, the world would he plunged into the greatest war in history at this time? It was undreamed and un- thought of. kverything tended to in- ternational trade and things went along smoothly. This war has shown us we should put our faith in experi- ence and not in hopes. The world is organized on nationalistic line! The socialists believed in internation- al lines prior to the outbreak of the war, but it was only a delightful dream, which may or may not be realized later. The followers of the party were firm in the bellef that the i world could be happy if run along ! these international lines, but when the trumpet of war blazed forth the ! socialists of Germany, France and | England were among the first to re- to the call of the elementary of one’'s nation. Thus it is shown that human nature must be made over hefore the fond dreams of those who believe in internationalism will ever be realized. Democracy and Autocracy. “There are {wo types in the organ- | ism of the world, democracy and au- tocracy. The latter is run by a cen- tral autocratic power as the case of Germany; the former by popular vote, as our own country. My firm belief democracy is the better. The New England town meeting is probably the best type of democracy, for there everyone gets a chance to express | his views. The autocratic power keeps its administration year after vear and consequently is able to lay plans for 50 years in advance, without the fear of an incoming administration tearing down all that has been a complished. Tn a democracy, contin- ual changes arc being made with the result that the countries in that cla are handicapped considerably. 1f a| town, say my own town of Rocky Hill, could be put in the hands of a com- mission of three business men and run for twenty-five years, it is my firm belief the expen. would dwindle much and affairs would be conducted in an economical manner. But the town meeting makes free men and each has a chance to express his opin- ions. Let us classify the nations. Germany is the highest type of an au- tocracy; Russia is autocratic, but still tion of vast possibilities; democratic fairly cien England, very democratic and slow to start; Austria and Turkey, vassals of Germany; Switzerland, able to maintain it's integrit is very democratic and efficient. France compact and is Sentimentalists, “There are two kinds of sentimen- talists in this contry, hard and soft. The former overrides facts, while the latter goes around them. This war has shown that an autocratic govern- ment, highly centralized and with marital skill can forge a machine and hurl it at the softer organization with force, before the latter is entirely awakened. Therefore, T believe this country should be made efficient, or cemocracy will perish in the struggle for existence against the always- prepared autocracy. The world v set on fire two years ago, and the brands are still burning and no tell- ing where the embers will scatter.

Confined indoors, for many hours a day, studying at night, | perhaps, deprived of much out-of-door exercise, their blood grows thin. Com=~ pare your child’s complexion with what 1t was last summer. Probably you have not realized how thin the blood was get- | ting because the change was so_gradual. | When a child formerly bright and | active loses color and finds play an ef- fort, but prefers to sit still and read, there is every reason to suspect that the blood is getting thin, that the child is anemic. Sometimes there is headache and nosebleed. These confirm the sus- picion. It is a condition that is full of danger, for thin blood is an open door to many diseases, especially during change- ful weather. But it is a condition thatis | easily remedied if taken in time. Dr. ‘Williams’ Pink Pills can be obtained at | any drug store. A fifty-cent box con- tains about two weeks treatment and these pille are a great blood-builder and | invigorator.
