One factor which has contributed to the business depression in New Britain is the decline in export trad- ing. Nearly every factory here has dwindling in ordérs from expert houses and as this trade has cut an important figure during . the past five years particularly it can number'| the drivers do not like being kept from | estab- | the trailic more and more. We wish be understood that a falling off in shipments to other sections of tne earth brings the bank balances and volume of production down to new low levels for that period. Unfavorable rates of exchange have been a barrier between the United States and some other lands. Foreign ers have preferred to “go shoppin abroad in some instances they ha found their venture worth while. In many cases they have returned from their “shopping” empty handed but because of the unfavorable exchange they have decided not to buy at all. Export business can probably be described as being in a condition of stagnation. New York houses engaged in shipping American made products abroad find their credits restricted by the general tightness of money and consequently they are unable to buy in large consignments even if they could find customers. ncellation of orders has also played its part toward purchasing n, Heads of export departments factories approach their mail with feelings of trepidation knowing full well that sameone has decided that he did not need that shipment for South America or some other country where cancellations seem to srow without sunlight or water. in son Rev. Dr. W. DeLoss Love, formerly of Hartford, and widely known in this has published book called “The Fasts and Thanksgiving Days of England,” which has started a controversy concerning the exact manner in which what we now know as Thanksgiving day was abserved by the early settlers of Massachusetts is the popular belief that the Puri- tans set aside the day for prayer and praise for the fruitful harvests, this view is not shared by the prom- inent theologian who says the evi- dence he finds goes to prove that, far from being a day of prayer, a whole week was spent in joyful recreation. This week, it is said, was the fore- runncr of our day of bountiful hospi- tality, sroaning tables and praise ‘o Heaven for an abundance of the good things of the world Whatever 'm be the iconoclastic views of Dr. Love, his writings are in- teresting and carry with them no little weight because of the standing of the author, Referring to the first observ- ance in Colonial days, Dr. Love writes: “It was not a day set apart for a religious service, but a whole week of festivityg No religious service is spoken of, and'it is nat likely that any was held oOthe® than their custom morning devotions. The Sal¥bath serv- ices which bounded the week were probably permeated with the spirit of gratitude, and for aught we know they may have had a thanksgiving day besides. This, however, was a week of rejoicing and pleasure. The Puritans would surely have been stocked at “recreations” during a religious season. They even had more respect for Christmas than that. “Surely we will rid ourselves of the notion that they were consciously shaping the practices of their dc cendants and inaugurating the harvest festival af many millions. It was not a Thanksgiving day at all, judged by their Puritan customs, which they kept in 1862, but as we look back on it after nearly three centuries, it seems so wonderfully like the day we love that we claim it as the progeni- tor of our harvest fe: “The harvest festival at Plymouth was an inspiration. It was not made: it was born. It did not look backward intq the past, and as to the future, no one thought of the influence such a celebration would have. The present alone commanded it—its wonderful utumnal season, its relief from nxiety, its food for those who had endured hunger,—this benediction of the New World revived their droop- ing spirits. They could serve Gad as truly on a holiday as on the Sabbath in its services.” see Among the_phenomena readjustment ~1s the sudden sudden adversion young wom- en seem to have taken to expen- ive and garish wearing apparel. A r ago the younger members of the of the ! gentler sex—and some of the older Herald l | ones as well—were arrayed in gar- ments which gave fathers and broth- ers grave concern as to their sanity. Not only were clothes dazzling in color combinations, but they appeared to be made of the most delicate materials unsuited for wear except at state occasions where they would not be subjected to the grime and strain of the workaday world. Today, Sister is a changed girl so far as her desire for extravagant dressing is concerned. She appears completely satisfied with less elabor- ate models and colors. The walking nbows which were wont to parade Main street are missing and the male is no longer offended by gaily garbed young women strolling along nonchalantly with a little bit *o dress of many hues made on dimensions that would lead one to wonder if it was not intended far a butterfly. Perhaps women, like men, are be- ginning fo realize that money spent without consideration of value re- ceivad was money wasted. Unemploy- ment, no doubt, has also had an effect in reducing their desires for elaborate styles. If the women are on strike against high prices, as their brothers and fathers seem to be, the war may be said to’ have come to an end. It is a mistaken idea for a girl to think that she can attract the atten- » ellows seye | but | a girl on the smartness of her dress, but these are in the minority and their opinions are not usually sought in the high places of business. The plain fact is that the average man likes a girl who dresses modishly and neatly. combining good taste with modesty, avoiding freakishness in color or cut, These are the kind who develop into home makers, who are in the kitchen baking bread r putting up *“jell” while the gaver friends are out to the matinecs satis- fied that if the “man” gets home earlier than they do he will find plenty of cold victuals on the pantry shelf. ‘e To the voters belong the spoils, Consequently, a clean sweep of demo- cratic holders of federal offices in Connecticut .may be expeccted when the republican party resumes its in- terrupted sway in the White House. Many office holders are protected by civil service regulations but many occupyins choice positions are due to be shown the gate. w “Eight long years have passed since the son: of democracy succeeded those of the G.

Now comes the turn in the road. President Harding's signature will be affixed to more than one new commis- sion in Connecticut and the salary tide will begin to go the other way. All along the line democratic heads will be loppd off: and their ghosts will rise to perch in the trees of De- feat, watching hungrily and ever elert to swoop down on the federal jobs again when the opportunity presents itself. It is expected that a number of changes will be seen in posts conneci-¢ ed with the enfarcement of the so- called prohibition layv.
