The terms set forth may be the maximum terms, they may be the minimum. Whatever. they are, they have removed all shadow of doubt as to just what the Allies in- tend to do. They mean, if they mean anything, that the war is to be fonght on until these objects have been real- ized, until all of them have been ac- complished. That is, unless Germany backs down. And those who know Germany know that she will not read- ily acquiesce to the demands of her enemies. The Allies declare them- aelves united in the pursuit of their supreme objects. They are ‘deter- mined, individually and collectively, to act with all their power and to consent to all sacrifices to bring to a victorious close a conflict upon which they are convinced not only their own safety and prosperity depends, but also the f\lture of civilization itself.” Words could not be stronger. No idea could be presented in clearer fashion. The Allies intend to fight to the finish. “HOLD 'EM, HOLD ’'EM."” Pork barrel legislation is not solely & national ill. There are symptoms of it in the individual states. There have been signs of the disease in Connec- | ticut in the past. There may be an | outbreaking of it in the future. At the present moment there is every chance in the world for an epidemic. ‘When the members of the 1917 Legis- lature met in Hartford yesterday to tackle the task of committee work | they found a treasury loaded to | the hilt with good red gold. There | may be some among them who will | | itch with the desire to spend this money. It is a natural trait, and it will requirc the firm steady hand of | | the executive to stay the impulsive- | ness of the spend-thrifts. Just as in the national congress there are men who greedily seek to | carry away every' dollar they can | | lay their hands on for the purpose of enriching their separate and indi- vidual districts, so in the state legis- i lature there are like grabbers of | pork. Knowing that the exchequer of | the state is brimming with the where- withal to purchase sundry and some- times unnecessary things for their particular districts, these law-makers may plan an attack on the treasury. There will be all sorts of excuses for the good old State of Conpecticut to untie the purse strings and let the lucre fly. In his annual message the Governor alluded to what may be ex- pected. He showed the tendency of some districts, and pointed out. that there might be an attempt to spend the state’s money on armories. As the future of the national guard is somewhat in doubt any plan to build a number of armories throughout the state will miscarry. But there are | other things the pork-grabbers have | in mind. And during the course of the present session they wil come to the surface. Expenditures there must be. A state, like a home, cannot continue to operate without funds. But there | is a clear line of demarkation be- 1 | The Battle Linc. Child in the.

SMALLPOX PREVENTS GAME High School Game With Waterbury Called Off—Deemed Unwise to Per- mit Visit From Scourged City Team. On the shaking In order to guard against any pos- sibility of a spread of Waterbury's smallpox epidemic to this city, the school authorities today cancelled the basketball game scheduled to be held in the local High school gymnasium this afternoon with the Crosby High school team of Waterbury. At the present time Waterbury s in the throes of a serfous smallpox scourge and there are between 100 and 150 cases in that city, new cases being reported almost daily. To date New Britain has not had a single case and the authorities thought it best not to take any chances of bringing germs here by permitting a large delegation of Waterburfans to come. While all of | the visiting High school players would come from homes free from contagion, the local officlals thought ‘‘safety first” the best plan, and decided to take no chances on a sfray germ being trundled into town. State President George Larkin of Ansonia, assisted by Edward Meaney of Meriden, installed the officers of New Britaic ~ Aerle, F. O. E., last evening.

He had a bronchial cough, his system was run-down and I felt sure he would die. His father insisted on his trying Vinol, and I am so thankful he did, because it cured his cough and built him up. My docor highly recommends it and said he could not take anything bet- .ter.” Mrs. Thomas Monk. Vinol, you know, contains beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manga- nese peptonates and glycerophos- phates. It enriches and revitalizes the blood and conveys to the system the vital elements necessary to strengthen the body and throw off the disease.

The pastor has made the usual number of calls. There were twenty-one funerals in the par- ish, three of which Mr. Thienes at- tended. There were nineteen wedding ceremonies, two of these were con- ducted by Mr. Thienes. The children’s sermon has been a feature of the morning service for & year. The change in the Bible school hour of meeting has resulted in a good attendance of scholars at the morning church service. church if we had some deflnite mis- slonary, or station or work for which we were directly responsible. We had hoped to make such an arrange- ment with Mr. Rowlands - when he went to the forelgn work, but were prevented from so doing because Mr. Rowlands went out under the London Misslonary- soclety. The pastor would suggest that the missionary committee, with the pas- tors and Mrs. F. G. Platt, be asked to look into the desirability of our entering into Someé plan or direct re- lations with missions; and if they find it best to do so, they be given power to complete arrangements, thus mak- ing our gifts to the American board apply to some direct work. Fifth—For some time it has been felt by religious leaders, that more direct efforts should be made to build the lives of boys and girls and young people into the church. To do this it has been necessary to provide spe- cial quarters suitable for modern methods. ‘Some churches have already taken the step notably the First church g Meriden and the Methodist church of the same city, the First church of Bristd], the First church and Sout churches of Hartford. Some of churches of this city arec¢ontemplaty ing doing this work. e - pastor would recommend that a committee be appointed to look into the neces- sity, feasibility and possibility of our, doing this in our church and if. deemed wise to undertake this work, & to formulate plans to be .ubmlttg to the church. The pastor would llke to state that, as he is in possession of an automo- bile, he 18 in a position to do very much more work In the parish and therefore would consider it a favopt if you would let him know at times where calls are needed would be appreciated.
