There is a large doubt in the public mind whether Cook or Peary have either one of 'them stood -exactly in the center of the geographical poie. It is not an easy matter to accurately locate the axial center of the earth amid a wilderness of Ice and in the face of immeasurable peril. That both men made the highest north in the Arctlc, sea there can be no question and which made the farthest north within the polar circle a question 10 be settled by their observations and records; but it is a matter of carefu! observation " §0 - accurately locate the axial center of the carth and the two days Cook was there and the one day of Peary is hardly likely to furnish . ‘sufficient data to exactly locate the pols they were looking for. The ex- rt scientists of the geographical so- cleties have a great deal of work be- fore them to determine which of thes two explorers came nearest to the center of the earth, or which really stood upon it. It is being pointed out now that iIn future the makers of geographies will include in the known portions of the earth the North pole region, which is a distinctive advance over all former maps of the earth. TO THE POINT. There are many people in eastern Connecticut who will be Interested in & letter upon th license question ‘written to The Courant of Hartford by Birdsey Case, a well-known lawyer of the Capitol city: . “To the Editor of The Courant: “Possibly a pertinent answer to A's ‘Pertinent Inquiry, appearing in to- day's Courant, may be found in the fact that a license to sell intoxicating liquor is not a contract or even a right of property but merely a permit to do ‘what would etherwise be unlawful and the authority which granted it always retains the power to regulate or revoke it upon a change of policy or legisla- tion, and such regulation cr revoca- tion cannot be complained of as a breach of contract or as unlawfully divesting the licensee of his rights or his property, “The idea which ‘A’ seems to enter- tain as to the sacredness and invola- bility of a liquor license has been so thoroughly exploded by countless de- cisions of our courts, both state and federal, that he need have no fear that the courts will fail to sustain the ac- tion of our common council if it de- cides to close Hartford's wet-goods emporiums at 10 o'clock. “BIRDSEY E. CASE. “Sept. 17, 1909.” This states the matter in a way which should interest botn sides. It 1s lucid and dispels the mists of doubt. LEA. We are not surprised to find a con- temporary writing upon the theme: “Be Just to the Pastor,” for there Is no doubt that we err in the mass as much or more than we do as individ- uals, or that “the Paster” often has & most unenviable place, and not only needs sympathy from the press but defence. This paper says, Speaking mpparently for local effect, “why should the pastor be made a pack horse? The varlety of church junk he is often made to bear would create & most ridiculous picture were he sus- ceptible of portrayal as he appears to _himgelf. The pastor has primarily the ' " care of souls; he should not have to operate, but to organize the machin- ery of the church. He should not be | subjgcted to the necessity of popular- " jzing the worship by the adoption of doubtful expedients, when if his peo- ple did not have a craving for mere moveélty shey would find numbers al- {68 with the real elements of success low the preaching of an Inspiring pel to a congregation tuned to the essage. Consideration for the pastor mutual forbearance is all the ton- t most churches need. The ever- church pose, the affection of the church situation that add to. the difficulties in the way of hearty and earnest co-operations ) “The faults of the congregation are for the most part of this general na- ture, faults that might very well be remedied and thereby the’ prosperity and success of the churches be pro- moted. Anything that lessens the co- operation of the pulpit and pew dimin- ishes the power of the churches, thwarts them in their enterprise, makes them ineffective agents for the reclamation of the world and plays havoc with holiness, The minister has his responsibilities, but, as related to a particular congregation, these are temporary. The congregation gains & character that lasts. The live church with the live pastor is a united church, co-operating in all good works and a church that never had, or long since threw aside its pulpit shackies. Perhaps a few ministers enjoy such editorial sermons once in a while for their eye-opening and electrifying ef- fects. INCREASED INTEREST IN FORES- TRY. - “More thorough knowledge of actual forest conditions has brought a wide realization of the importance of the forest in the life of the mation,” says Treadwell Cleveland, Jr., in speaking of tae progress of forestry for the t year in the Year Book of the de- partment of agriculture. “Enough Is now known to make im- perative. a complete change in the methods of forest use, and the ways in which this change may best be brought about are discussed with equal interest by the specialist and thé man in the street ational welfare, as well as Indi- vidual comfort. is seen to he depend- ent upon forest conservation. To this better knowledge and surer insight s mainly ‘due the progress which for- estry has made in the past year. “Unprecedented forest fires served a similar purpose, so that the lesson which they taught, in spite of its ter- rific cost, will probably pay for itself. With a unanimity never before paral leled the people of the country are de manding that a stop be put to forest waste and destruction.” GOOD ROADS. The hummocks or cushioned ledges and boulders in the roads of Con- necticut, where . they have been a hindrance to travel more than one century, demonstrate how little the settlers understood about the advan- tages of good roads. A hump that could have been leveled down in a day or two has been in the way for a century at ten times, If not a hun- dred, of the cost of removal. Government statistics show that the average cost in this coeuntry of hauling a ton of produce is 25 cents a mile. In Burope the same service costs eight cents. Buropean farmers have no better horses or wagons, but they have better roads. If Ar.erica had as good roads as Europe, the annual saving in the cost of transportation would be $250,000,- 000. This would be a very handsome addition to the farmers’ bank ac- count. There is sound business in good roads from any point of view, for they not only reduce the cost of hauling produce, but increase the facilities and pleasure of travel and add value to the farms of the country they tray- erse, and a good road is an attrac- tion to country life. THE FUTURE OF THE AERO- PLANE. The world has begun to think that the aeroplane in the future may con- tribute to the terror of man as much as to his pleasure. The nations with guilty consciences, like Russia, are beginning fo see things. “Heavens,” said a Russian states- man, “what if the revolutionists should get hold of one of these ma- chines? They could sail over the pal- ace of Peterhof and blow the whole government into chaos, and no one could stop them.” Russian imagination was fired by the question. imorous officials thought they could already see strange shapes floating over St. Pe- tersburg. Grand dukes fled to the cel- la Under present circumstances the channel seems too narrow to England, and other countries are awakening to the evil uses sky fliers may be put to.

There is too much deflance of the rules of the road by automobilists in Last week I went to Wisconsin to stay a few days with Ruth Ritchie at the Crossroads inn, where she and her mother have been passing the summer. I thought I should enjoy a quiet week there @ the end of the season, but I found it extremely dull, as the very few guests who were there did not seem in the least interesting to me.

But when the time came in the after- noon for her bath I was putting on my most_fetching outing costume so that it Arthur should arrive early I would be ready to see him. Then Ruth got her mother to help her shampoo her hair.

The Census Supervisor, The appointment of census super- visor for this state is announced else- where In this paper and is likely to prove a surprise all around. A strong- ly endorsed petition for the selection of J. Olin Howe of Waterbury was forwarded to Washington, but this was understood to be strenuously opposed by the two senators, who recommend- ed E. S, Young of this city. To an outsider it might well look as if poli- tics was forcing its way into the situa- tion, and so the president has ap- parently dropped and made one for himself, maming an expert in statistics, Professor W.

President Taft made an impression on the Worcester people yesterday who saw him at the station. Their first impression, as he came from the car to the platfsrm to speak to them, was that of a robust and kindly man, who entertained no evil thought of anybody or anything. To him, alt men are mot evil. It was a change from the first effects tbat have beem cre- ated at the same station by the retired president. Mr. Taft's face appears to better advantage to the human eye direct than it does through the medi- um of the camera. Yesterday the red tint of vigorous health was toned by a distinct coating of tan that can he taken on to best advantage onl in the atmosphere of New kngland in the summer. The face was full and broad, but with less of the appearance of flesh than on previous occasions noted in Worcester, There is no doubt the president appeared at his bBest. He scemed to feel that Worces- ter deserves the best. Fis manner of speech was jovial, without in the leagt suggesting any aftempt to make light of the occasion. His words were per- sonal to Worcester folks and their nefghbors in Millbury. He spoke as a man who knew this section and had special regard for part of it because of early aspociations. He did not stoon to compliments to catch the crowd, but conveyed the impression that all was so nice about Worcester that there was no occasion to mention any- thing in_particular. The cheers that were called out for Bill Taft by a man i working clothes of his business were spontaneous, and undoubtedly impressed the president, as he turned back from entering the car, and again smiled on the people in that satisfac- tory way. There was nothing dramat- ic about it. but just piain satisfaction. Clearly, the present president has no desire to be ringmaster of a circus. —Worcester Telegram. Those “Slow” Foreign Newspapers. British newspapers bave in times past been the bute of ridicule for some United States editors. It is noted, however, that when a big piece of news breaks out in these times it is often- times the London Times, now run by an Englishman who has American ideas largely, that gets the story first and compels’ American newspapers to buy the right to use it. Attention is also called to the recent feat of quick and expensive work by a London news- paper. It decided that Lord ‘Rose- bervs' speech in Glasgow would at this time be important and worthy news So its men handled the speech at Glasgow as it was delivered, in relays sent it by telephone to London, and there it was set up in type inch by inch as the copy came; and when the speech was ended, or a short time later, the last of it was in type and the newspaper was quickly on the strest The speech took eight columns. Mighty few speeches delivered in this country are ever regarded by American news editors as worth ejght columns, but that dosn't dim the performance of the London newspaper for speed, for painstaking, and for willingness to pay which you have to sell, through you ignorance or apathy.
