Our pipa line holdings extend through several towns in the direction of our source of water supply and they must be ex- tended if our water system keeps pace with the growth of the city.

All cit are legitimate pre for the bucolic population and we can picture their delight, as they it around the cracker parrel in the zen- ive—and to e—smiles, at the helpless the cities. while they urbanites. However depressing tha foregoing may be, we should take for our motto the words over the padded cell in the Meriden police station: “‘Dum spiro, pero,”” which, being translated into ngli means “While there is life, there is hope.” nd the hope springs from the rumor that the pipeline tax measure will be found by the janitor of thae capitol cold in death at tha threshold of the senate chamber. .. expens chuckle New General lations for Pritain’s representatives in the Assembly deserve congratu- securing the passage of the appropriation of $750,000 to begin the construction of a new Normal in this city. For many days there was danger that the pres- | ent legislature would not take favor- able action owing to the pressing de- mands for economy by . Governor Lake. Fortunately, that fear is now dispelled and, it is said, that the governor will sign the alihough there is no offi tion of this statement while this being written. There is need of economy in state affairs, as Governor Lake has pointed out so convincingly. But there is a vast difference between waste and wise expenditures, and the payment money for the erection of a new Normal school cannot, by the widest stretch of the imagination, be inter- 1 confirma- is & ¥ TALLEST MAN' appropriation, | preted as extravagance. The ent plant has done excellent its portals have passed hun- dreds of young women bett cquip- ped to guide and direct the minds of children so that they might develop into useful and purposeful men and women. But its day of maximum utility has passed. It cannot longer adequately serve the state and it is ntia that it be replaced with buildings properly equipped with cilities in conformance with modern ideas of educational institutions. During the past few years much has been said with regard to the need of education, and this need has been recognized generallv. To withhold the appropriation for the new school buildings would be the worst extrava- gance because it would waste human effort and human thought and would ignore an opportunity now presented to give Connecticut children the best PO )le public school instructors. The people of New Britain arc con- fident that Governor Lake will take these facts into consideration when the bill presented to him for his signature. It is only fair to make mention of the debt of thanks New Britain owes two of its leading citizens for their efforts in behalf of the appropriation. These men are Principal Marcusg White of the State Normal school an Charles F. Smith, whose interest in education is comparable only to his interest in the upbuilding of New Britain as a great industrial center. Both Messrs. White and Smith have given generously of their time and strength to the victory which now seems to be at hand. Their services should not be forgotten. ... Since its organization in this city a short time ago the Rotary club has enjoyed a lar share of success. It has *“caught on” with young business and professional men and, as motor enthusiasts say, is “hitting on all six.” It is not necessary to seek far for the reason. The club’s program ex- press an ideal blending of business and pleasure. The business is . the knowledge gained from listening. to | speakers who bring valuable informa- tion, as well as the activity of the club n matters of civic importance. The pleasure is derived from associating ! with men who are doing things in a | real way and from the exchange of | sociability. If property administered, the cl can become one of the most impo | ant unofficial organizations in the city") { It appeals more strongly to the aver: ;age man than some other groups ! which are formed almost exclusively | for promoting the interests of business !men because while it also accomplish- ies this result it does not concentrate {on this point.
