They have overhauled their trucks and ex- pect to be in a position to handle their wares 'in such a way that the strik- ing mien will not get much encourage- ment from this city. “That's the dope.” Instead . of drawing long faces and going about preaching how the strike is going to set New Britain still farther back, let the men who have done so much for New Britain, with the aid of their helpers, tell those workers and tell the public that they do not intend to “fay down” at the behest of a few labor leaders, but that they will do all'in their power to help get work going and keep going through other means than the.railroads.. New ' Britain is the workers’ city. The managers and officials work just as-hard in one way as do the men at the benches. A situation like this nettles the officials. They will at- tack it and they will take orders for goods while the working man turns them out; then the officials will take hold' of ‘the transportation problem a.d attend to it if there is any way possible, and they say there is a way. ‘What that advertising man said is true of some cities of New England and perhaps here, in part. There are places and there are people who should heed the slogan: “Wake Up ,New England!” But New Britain was not the city he was aiming at. He was not speaking in- New -Britain; he wae speaking generally. But New Britain takes that part of it to her ch hits her. c naTugactur ers who have.spoken this encour- aging word about the railroad strike as not affecting New Britain as far as employment is concerned have taken the proper attitude. And the city government, having purchased enough coal to carry it- selt through the winter, may feel prétty safe. Mayor Curtis has said that . the strike will not seriously af- fect the city, should it come. THE CHILDREN’S HOME “‘Far up on a beautiful hill, 7 " which the view of the world 'round about is glorious, inside the building 3 in. which the atmosphere harmonizes with that beauty stands the new Chil- dren’'s Home—almost completed. from Through the work of Rev. J. E. / Kjingberg, incessantly thinking of “his children” whom he has seen grow from infancy to school age and thén through school go out to be- #in the world’s battle, the school has ] "'frlo one seems to know whence came . the maney for the building that in " | the future will adequately house boys and girls, little one and big ones, those ‘Who have learned their first and last lessons there—no one seems to know ‘whence will. come the remaining $15,000 that must be had as soon as possible to complete the building. *“There have been for it no “drives” | mor “campalgns.” The money has come fo Rev. J. E. Klingberg, and the work Das. thrived. And it is safe to say that 1o one in the community is more surs that the rest will come, and come quickly, as Mr. Kiingberg. He has made no public appeal for help; he s making none now. The appeal that ‘hé makes is avowedly to higher Power; 'and he believes devoutly, as this won- L work has progressed, that the " needed funds have come as a result of tfim prayers. Who are we to doubt his beliet? But those interested know that $15,000 must be forhcoming, They, without his knowledge, have taken it upon themselves to let this fact be known. They want the people to feel as they will when the realize that liftle children find a home there from in- fancy to the time they leave school— children, boys and girls who have no other place to which to turn. And here they live under the influence of Rev. J.. E.. Klingberg, whose presence dominates the home and influences all ' who are within its walls. And, we belleve that the prayers i tor that remaining $15,000 will be answered. We do not know how; the domors may not want their names made public; but we share in his be- llet that the old and new friends, and others who may wish to feel that he or she has had a part in 80 beautifully shaping a child’s life, will see to it that the needed $15,000 is forthcom- ing—that another prayer has been answered, fu 1y “JEST RUMINATIN".” (Robert Russell.)

Néw Britain should feel proud of its musical people, and should feel grateful to those who take such In- terest that they have perfected an or- sanization capable of presenting, ab- solutely without charge, an evening of entertainment such as that en- jnyed by those who heard the con- cery ‘of the New Britain Musical Club last evening. : The interesting program which had been prepared came fully up to stand- ard in its execution, and the audience was dehighted with the way our local people and a few from near-by inter- preted the selections in- their branches of this most attractive art. ““Recognizing the demhand in this city for the best of everything, and, {hrough its local work intensifying that tecling, the club has arranged to bring here some of the best,talent obtain- arle at various times through the year. Those who participated last night are to be encored many times for the skill and musical understanding which they displayed and the enjoyfient they gave; the management is to be con- gratulated on the ambitious plans raade, and all are to be wished great success in this local undertaking. MORMON WIVES To those in this city who have been told by fine appearing young men of the beauties of Mormonism, and of the fact that plural marriage is abso- lutely not a part of the creed, and had been taken from fit, although we know it was one of the main doctrines on which the creed was founded, it will be interesting to read what Judge Page Morris, Minnesota federal judge has to say on the subject. ‘“Any mem- bers of the Mormon church who have plural wives still lving should be compelled to support them.” Of course this is in reference to the past, before 'the alleged abolishing of the plural marriage. But in the case under consideration Mormon HRistory, the former and present extent of the practice of ‘polygamy and the testi- mony of high church officials and -Utah capatalists’ are of chief interest. New Britain had a good chante to hear a strong attack on Mormonish here some time ago. One interested in hearing both sides of a question, no matter how thoroughly he or she may be disgusted with one side, would he glad to hear what the Mormon High officials and Utah capatalists have to say on the subject. “Unemployment Problem to Re- ceive Attention in Bristol,” headline.
