While it Is true that there is nothing the United States wants that any other nation has, it is that almost anything every other na- tion wants the United States has, and possesses in superabundance. fore, it would seem the better part of | valor on our part to leave these other | nations go their way, and for us (o go ours, keeping both paths well sep- | arated. This, of course, being solely applicable to the nations of Eurcpe. | World The Old World and the New are as far separated as the East from the West. Tt has been the history of this na- siders, that it was content with the munificent benefits showered upon it by a Divine Providence, that it got its entire satisfaction in attending to its own business. This is as true to- day as it was a hundred years ago. And it will be more so in the future. During the past two years the people of the United States have learned les- sons that will be stamped indelably upon their minds for ages They have, in the first i learned the horror of war, and while they would not be averse to bringing about an end to the terrible going on abroad, they would hesitate to commit any act that might t0 come. instanc carnage quickly be looked upon askance in FEuropean capitals, viewed from the angle that we are trying to force upon the bel- ligerents the great power that is vest- ed in this natlon. what- ever President Wilson undertakes in the line of peace-maker will measure up to his wonderful accom- plishments as a preserver of peace for his own people.

INSTITUTE MUSEUM OPENING IS NEAR Doors Will Be Thrown Open to General Public on Wednes- day Afternoon For some weeks past Burlingham Schurr, the naturalist and lecturerf, has been arranging the naturl his- tory collections in the New Britain Institute and getting them in condi- tion to exhibit to the public. Mr. Schurr attracted the attention of the institute directors by the very interest- ing lectures which he gave earlier in the year at the Grammar, the High and the Normal schools. These lec- | tures aroused great interest among the young people in our-door life, and the city is to be congratulated that Mr. Schury is willing to stay here for a time and take charge of the museum. It is felt that the natural history, the art and the historical collections will not only prove of interest to the general public, but will also be of great aid to the schools of the city. A more detailed description of the several collections now in the Insti- tute will be made later in these columns, but the citizens may be as- sured that the gifts of John B. Tal- cott, James Shepard, Miss C. Antoin- ette Shepard and Eugene W. Schmidt, not to mention the Burrett collection and other special donations, are of very great value and make it possible for the museum to open under espe- clally favorable conditions. It is hoped furthermore that much material of scientific and historical find its way to the Institute, if only in the way of loans. Until further notice the museum will be opened beginning Wednesday, May 31, afternoons days) from 2 t6 5 and 7 to 9. A meeting of the members of the Institute will be held tonight at 7:30 o’clock, to afford them a of the exhibit. GRIP AND NEURASTHENIA There is a form of neurasthenia that follows the grip. Doctors call it ‘“post- rippal’’ neurasthenia. One of the oremost medical authorities of New York city in a lecture in the interna- tional clinics, said: ‘‘Broadly speaking, every victim of the grip will suffer from post-grippal neurasthenia also.
