Checks may be made to Will Howe, treasurer, or contributions made to Mrs. Alice Thompson, at headquarters. There seems to have been little knowledge concerning the drive. About a thousand dollars have been sub- scribed by persons who realize the necessity of having this dental clinic in connection with the schools. Five hundred dollars more must come. Then, when the time arrives next year for the city budget to be made up, it is expected a sum will be in- cluded to provide for this clinié. But the workers, seeing the imme- diate necessity of the clinic now, want to begin at once. They can’t until they have that re- maining $500 or $600. May they have it this week, and may “Bett.r Teeth” begin to come. “WAKE UP, NEW ENGLAND,” The subject of the talk to adver- tising men yesterday by John R. Dem- arest of New Haven, was “Wake up, New England.” The kernel of his address was that we are not working hard enough in this slack season; we go along too complalsantly, we have sort of lain down on the job. One sentence es- pecially is worth quoting: “New Eng- land manufacturers will not sell barn door hinges to Wyoming farmers from tne golf course. New England business men and advertisehs are not working as hard as those of the mid- dle west. New England is slipping. We must wake up and put in a more con- structive effort.” The wonder comes if the speaker has not struck something of the truth?. The man on the street is out of work @#md in some parts of New England the man who might find some way of employing him, may be playing ‘golf. Ts not the employer class to blame for taking things a little too easily, even though he has reached the con- clusion that the business depression has so affected his own business that he intends to do nothing yntil that depression ceases? Might not that man, at home, help to get things Soing ther® quickly? The knows more about his business than others. But one may suggest' that though his ab- sence may do no harm, his being near his manufacturing plants might do good. Keeping his shop rather dismal, drawing a long face and making dis- courage remarks, may not affect matters. But it would seem that the speak- er said something when he urged them all to “get on the job.* A bright looking store wherein no mournful faces are seen; a.cheerjul manager of 2 plant, gertainly would lose no trade, no business, and certainly would not help the depression to continue. It is worth trying. manufacturer certainly CHILDREN AND SAVING. From a neighboring city comes the news that hundreds of pupils of local schools are starting bank accounts. The plan there is to have the children bring their pennies, when they have them, to the teacher in whom, of eourse they have the greatest confi- dence. To a child, a teacher can do no wrong, and be it said that this patural confilence should inspire teachers in more ways than one. When any child has an amount to his or ner credit amounting to a dol- lar, the teacher deposits that amount in any of the savings banks and a pass book is issued to the pupil One may imagine with “what pride the small girl or boy keeps that book and looks forward to the day when another dollar may be entered in it. The pennies are few and scarce, but this plan inculeates the habit of thrift. When a child has a few pennies, he or she is not satisfied until they are spent. It makes little difference to them, after an hour or so, Wwhether they were spent on candy or given to the teacher. They are gone and the pext thing to do is to look for more pennies. In this connection; and bearing somewhat on the subject, is the mat- ter of the children who wait about the doors of the moving picture shows. F ST RUMINATIN.” (Tobert Russell.) We'd o better keep the memory Saturday, quite clear, For days like that ain’t on the books to often re-appear. course we hopes for lots of ‘em, but they'll be on their way o To take a trip, then cheer our hearts some six months from today. let's drink sreat chance let us not jest waste ’em— drawin’ in our heads that's dumb.

Answer to Saturday’'s: 16, 128 and 10242 The management of these shows is not to blame—they cannot keep the chil- dren away. These little ones often beg for a few pennies which, added up, gain them admittance to the picture show. Every person of generous heart is tempted to givo them something. Only the realization that it is teach- ing them the habit of begging, keeps the adults from doing it—especially the young chap anxious to show hia companion—his “best girl”—his gen- erosity. Poor children, they should not 'be encouraged. Generous men or women, you should not display your kindnesa thus for it is a mistaken kindness. There are plenty of better means of aiding them. . But the savings account plan should be encouraged by school officials and by cooperating banks. THE WOMAN’S CLUB. Yesterday The Woman's Club/ of New Britain announced its plans for th® year. Ever since its organization in 1875 and through the time of its incorporation, in 1902, it has added to the kno-vledge and culture not only of its members, but often to women of the city who, ®s guests, have en- joyed the eloquence of the speakers and the music of the artists the club has brought here. The Woman’s club is an institution of the city. Its effect has gone far beyond its#membership, and New Britain’s possession of a club of this kind, with all thought and expression of the delicacies of a cultivated life, has for miny years brought an at- mosphere of culture to this city that brings recognition of that quality here which miglit be produced in no other way. A glance at the program for the year will disclose all that is in store for its members, but it does not show the spirit which dominates the ganization. or- A better understanding of life in all its phases, a more thorough grasp of the past to the history of the present; the inspiration of the things that have gone, and the psy- chological influence of modern art— all that tends to enlighten in the broadest manner possible, and with the beauty of social intercourse that comes with frequent gatherings of women interested in such things— | interested in the affairs of life that broaden, raise and intensify that por- tion of the mind attracted by these better things—these are to be found in the living, active Woman's club of this city and in it traditions of the past. THE D CONCERT. The Eddy-Glover Post of the Am- erican Legion deserves credit for bringing to this city the Marine Band for two concerts, yesterday afternoon and evening. It was a gamble for thé sponsors for the%concert. The costs will be between $1,500 and $2,000. These amounts simply had to be met, and the young soldiers took the chance, for tha benefit of the memory of their dead “buddie Some belie e that our soldier dead should never have been brought from the other side.

He knew that no United States vessel would be a match for either of them. If these rams left England the Union was apparently doomed. Adams told Lord John Russell that it.would mean war. Adams brought copies of the commissions of the officers who were to sail on the rams. They were signed by Jefferson Davis. The evi- dence of the real mission of the mys- terious ironclads was so strong that it could not be abselutely disregarded. Adams was told that the rams would be detained if he would build a proper deposit to cover possible damages to the owners. The sum of $5,000,000 ‘n gold was named as the amount neces- sary. At that time it was quite impos- sible for the United States to raise even $1,000,000 in England. In the United States Secretary Chase was hard put to it to find money to pay the army. The conditions laid down by the Englishmen seemed equivalent to a victory for the Confederacy. Adams and the United States were ap- parently defeated. A quiet, unassum- ing gentleman came to see the United States Minister. He explained that he would be very glad to deposit the $5,- 000,000 in gold on condition that his name should not be made public. His name is still a secret. Mr. Adams sent at once to the United States govern- ment for securities with which to cover the generous rescuer. There were only $7,500,000 in $1,000 bonds authorized. In ortler to send $10,000, 000 in bonds it was necessary to make up the amount in small denominations. None of the bonds had been signed by the Registrar of Treasury. There were only 70 hours before the steamer sailed. With a physician in atten ce, the Registrar, Mr. Lucius E. Chitten- den, the only man who could legally sign the bonds, set to work. He fini: ed in the allotted time, but his h was so impaired that he was a nervous wreck for the following five years and he was never well again. It was not until April, 1864 that the British gov- ernment notified the Confederates that they need expect no more help from the English shipyards. The attitude of England toward the Irish Republic of today -closely paralleled the attitude of England to- ward the American Republic during the Civil War. Mr. Quillen, in the light of history England has much for which to be thankful. Yours Truly, MARTIN J.
