Itis conceivable that:1he: mur?![rnu: of g~ o the situation is allowed to creep out of Germany. It is not conceivable that trained correspondents who must live in the empire of which they ‘write can grossly overstatg the situation. We have the word of these writers that | trouble is hrewing in Germany and that it is of the same order as that which brought about the downfall of the Romanoff dynasty in RBussia. The rev- olution which started in Petrograd may soon have its replica in Berlin. Once firmly established there it will not take long to find an inlet to Vienna and Budapest. Revolutions, like prairie fires, have a way ,of spreading over vast areas. The Revolution of America’ saw its aftermath ten years later in Paris. Democracy has ever’ triumphed by the encouragement of previous assaults against Autocracy. Russia itself owes its present form of Government to the French with whom its soldiers are fighting side by side. Gérmany may in the end ‘thank its stars for the overthrow of Nicholas / Romanoff. ‘The example has been set. It remains now for 'a few brave souls to follow it. 79 / Truly this is the beginning of a new era, even more than that,—a new epach for democracy. The last strong- the people of these two kingdoms be- ginning to ask questions, with the spirit of unrest that is rapidly devel- oping in the Fatherland, it is no won- der thal uneasy lles the head that wears the crown. Kaiser Wilhelm is not ‘sitting on his throne as securely today ‘as he was when the war broke out. Then he had something to offer his people. He had the force of thirty vears instruction, something they could not overcome. They went out to fight for him, not for /themselves, that the idea ol{ Kultur, a doctrine of Prus- ein, might be spread over the world. ,Wona-w‘ae conquest was the dream of the Emperor, and, in turn, it became the dream of his people. Beaten back now after two years and a half of fighting the dream- is about to ex- plode. The awakening is at hand. And when thn German teople fully come out of their dream then ihere must be a new order of things in the old em-, rire. Then wm(!ut\ be realized the new epoch, ‘a world" freed by Democracy. holds of autocracy are in Germany and its ally, the dual monarchy. With POOR SERVICE. * Unfavorable comment is being free- ly expressed relative to the inade- quate facilities maintained by the Southern New FEngland Telephone company for its outside wiring work or the. apparent disregard of the company’'s general - staff outside the city for the convenience and wishes of prospective patrons. Not,'a few persons have the money and wish to have .telephone service but are un- able to attain their desires, according t6 complaints héard on the street. A number of instances have been cited where applications for service have been filed for weeks,. yet nd signs of the service have materialized. Fre- quent inquiries ‘meet with' the re- sponse that the application has been beld up in New: Haven %r that the outside force is overburdened with the press of spring work. It is to be regretted as the New Eritain exchange, from the viewpoint of -interior work. been brought to a high standard dnd comparajive- 1y few complaints are heard relative to the service given by the operators. This s gspecially true when com- pared with service given in other cities. > The patrons daily receive practical demonstrations as to the quality of, service furnished by local operators under the supervision of Miss Annie B. Russell, chief operator. What the local exchange can do in an emergency was well {llustrated: the night of February 21 when the facil- ities were taxed because of -the “fire- bug’ scare. ‘Whether the call to the colors, re- cruiting, and other war excitement [hns anything to do with the general | office force and lnemfen getting way behind in their work, resulting in vexing and unexplained delays, has not been ascertained. There i8 some- thing wrong somewhere. As a pub- lc utility, the telephone ; owes it to New .Britain to better its “| service in every way possible, Having brought: its operating department to a high state of efficiency it would now seem advisable to augment its in- stalling facilities.

To the Editorjof The Herald:— Careless, slipshod work on the part of street railway men causes unjust criticism of the street railway com- pany frequently when the fault rests with the men and with the men alone.” An uncomfortable illustration of this was given a woman from Springfield, Mass., who was visiting in your city last Tuesday. The wom- an, being unfamiliar with the -city, asked Conductor No. 4918 to let her oft the car at a certain point on Black Rock avenue. He promptly for- got all about it and carried her mies past her intended destination. Of course he was sorry but that didn’t help the woman a bit. That conductor is undoubtedly a good member of the street rallway men’s' union which perfodically de- mands pay Increases for all its mem- bers. He will included in 'these pay Increases no matter what | the quality of his work. Men .in_other jobs have to show efficiency that will warrant better remuneration for their work. I believe it is the alm of the best' members of the trolly men’s union to have all members do their work with an efficlency that will be.a credit to the union. Such men as this ‘bring their organization into disrepute. Controling the situation as far as its members are concerned, the union it-. selfsshould organize some system of a showing in their work. . E. R. STEVENSON, | Springfield, Mass., April 20, 1917. AN OLD NURSE. | Twenty Yecars Service in New Britain Recalled in Tribute to Dr. Lyons. To the Editor of the Herald: Just a few words in memory of Dr. E. B. Lyons whose best efforts in life ‘were given to your city, as also were mine: he as a physician, I as a nurse. He was a grand .man. Had it not been for his kindhess I should never have held my own..-I.am sure we have some warm friends still living there. They cannot have all passed on. Some there must- be who remember the nights and days we put in shoulder to shoulder at the wheel to save a lite. Now, he is gone. I, broken in health, am fast following with no recognition after twenty long years spent among prominent families. One friend remains in 'Gene Porter, and his brother, Frank, always true. There were others,—Lee, Cummings, Stone, Cooley, many of whom have gone to that unknown land from which no traveller ever returns. I sometimes wonder if Dr. Lyons re- ceived the recognition he so justly de- served.

Those Eligible For Service n > 1. THE FIRST LESSON OF THE SOLDIER. THE FIRST THING OF ALL THAT the young American of the New Army will be taught, and sust lcarn thor- oughly if he 's to serve his country efficiently as a soldier, is obedience— obedience expressed in discipline. Discipline is the fundamental of the soldier. & Discipline is not punishment. Dis- cipline is not the goose step. Disci- pline, in the proper sense, is control —control for a definite purpose. Obedience is. ‘merely the adapting of oneself to such control. And to make the system effective from the private to the army corps, the discipline of the soldier must begin with the dis- cipline of himself. Otedience, or discipline, is not in- tenced to convert a man into an un- thinking machine. "A soldier who can think is twice the soldier who cannot. The most efficient National Guards- men on the border a year ago were invariably the most intelligent: What <discipline does attempt to do is to supply: a man with the machinery of . action after his thoughts have been blasted to pleces by shells. His motions must be ingrained—auto- matic. This is attained through steady dxill, the routine of camn. and f‘the school of a soldier.” No man is fit to conriand who has not first learned to obey. Command, ir the nature of things, will fall {to tiose who obey most quickly, most telligently. ¥ Discipline, to the youns American soldier. will be.manifest in his con- duct; in the way he garries himself ~—the poise ¢ his head, the erect- ness of, his shoulders. It will be evi- dent in the neat-ess of his clothes; ythe care with which he buttons nis | America’s New Legions. vniform; in the’ way that he ties his shoes. It will be evident in the de- gree that he keeps himself washed and brushed; in the scrupulous fash- jon in which he dresses his cot, his kit, his quarters. It will be obvious in the consclentious' manner in which he attends to all the routine dutles of the day; in his observance of the code of military etiquette. Discipline of this character’ runs throughout the whole - day, except when a man is off duty, and then he can be as care-free as he likes ' But a man whose mind and muscles have had the training of a soldier no longer finds himself at ease in the old slouchy, flabby slump of the boy of the street corner. His body, cor- rected, becomes the figure that nature intended. both walking or sitting. The fact that disciplirie runs through the day—and the night—is import- ant. That iy the method by which it becomes a habit. If discipline \were confined to marching or’rllllng, then it ,would impress itself’ only when marching or drilling—at other times to be forgotten. This would not'save the situation if the camp were at- tacked by surprise. The point s simply this: the soldier learns that everything he does is the way most carefully studied out to bring the most effective results from a large body of men, ¢ with the least confusion, thi least loss of energy, or combined power. When he has learned this, the young American will have learned his first lesson as a soldier. Tomorrow’s article will explain the soldicr's place in a group formation.

M. Landers Learns That New Brit- ain Has 500 Acres of Farm Land Lying Idle. According to- George M. Landeks, of the Connecticut Committee on Food Supply, there are 1,000 acres of | registered farm' land in New Britain and of this amount only 500 acres are annually developed. This leaves 500 acres of farm land that can be utilized, not including' vacant lots and back yards that can also he used for the raising of staple food products. This undeveloped farm land alone could produce 50,000 bushels of po- tations, Mr. Landers states.” That the state-wide campaign to in- crease the food production of the state is to be followed idustriously in New Britain is evidenced by the response to the initial notices. Already many acres of land have been offered igratis to people who may wish to plant gar- den and the factories too, are taking up the project along co-operativé lines. In addition to the fadtories and in- dividuals noted in Saturday’s Herald and offering the use of farm lands, the Stanley Works offers to its em- ployes five separate tracts of land for garden purposes. The land thus of- fered is located at the corner, of Broad and Bond streets; on South Burritt street, on McClintock road, on the Plainville road and beyond the end of Mpyrtle stréet. Blanks have been issued to emploves who wish to take advantage of the offer. . In addition to the offers of land, 3. I. Donahue has given his employes | permission to develop for their own | profit some of his farm land. Alder- man A. M. Paonessa has given sim- ilar permission for his neighbors to develop seéveral vacant lots he owns and ninety lots ownediby an Italian society in Sevmour park are also to be thrown open, it is stated.
