It was extremely cold in this city Wednesday morning, but E. C. Rogers, proprietor of the Putnam inn, could hardly conclude that was the reason why ‘the entire fire department was assembled on the square fronting his house when he came downstairs .at 0. Fire departments do not usually id in raising the temperature. He learned that the firemen had respond- ed tg an alarm for a fire at the inn. Ther® was a fire—in the fireplace—and some excitable person, seeing the leap— ing flames, with early morning uncer- tainty, immediately- ‘decided it was time to get out the fire department, and it was gotten out. But then, in a case of false alarm, it is better to be called to a hotel on a cold winter morning than to some other places in the city. It makes it warmer going home! Dead Man Still Unidentified. The dead man at L. E. Smith’s un- dertaking ‘rooms is still unidentified, notwithstanding the belief that he has been living for some months in and about Dayville.

John Murray of the police de- partment received a well ed compliment when the solid yote of the republican’ an@ demsocratic merkbers was ‘cast in favor of his reappointment.

These two officials are now entering on their second term of office with the } satisfaction of knowing that their | work during the past two vears has | been appreciated as thoroughly effi- | cient. 3 | First “Back from Elba” Slogan. Reading Mr. Gifford Pinchot's pa- | per to have been read before the Peo-l ple’s Forum at New Rochelle, N. Y. on onversation and Equal Oppor- tunity” recalls Roosevelt—brings back, in fancy, (from the wilds of Africa)— and moves one to wonder whether, after all, the Rooseveltian era is of the past. Our natural resources must be con- served, but for whose benefit—*“for the benefit of the many, or for the use and the profit of the few?” A great con- flict—an irrepressible conflct—is now being fought out “between the men who stand for the Roosevelt policies and the men who stand against' them.” There is “no other question before us that begins to be so important or that will be so difficult to straddle.” Hear the chief forester further: “The people of the United States have been the complete victims of a system of grab. “The unholy alliance between busi- ness and politics is the most danger- ous fact in our political life. “It is time to take business out of politics, and keep it out; time for the | political activity eof the nation to be aimed squarely at the welfare of all of us, and squarely away from the ex- cessive profits of a few of us. “Too often we have seemed to for- get that a man in public life can no more serve both the special Interests and the people than he can serve God and Mammon. “There are many men who believe, and who will always believe, in the divine right of money to rule. The only thing to do is to fight them and beat them.” ‘The term “swollen fortunes” is pub- licly uttered for the first time in months; we hear of “wickedness in grinding the faces of the poor,” the stifling of competition “by rebates or cther crooked devices, through corrup- tion of public officials, or through seizing and monopolizing recources which belong to the people,” and of “the misery and degradation involved in _the cost of living.” Verily the fight is on. It will not down. A history-making epoch is des« tined to follow the advent of the New Year.—Weshington Herald. Peril of Pro m. A well known and careful writer on current problems has recently said that one of the greatest perils of the country today is “the peril of provin- | cialisi involving the superfiicial handling of great subjects and great questions. Each age has its problems. The twentieth century will have nossivly more and greater problems than any preceding century of history. The ages of the past have prepared man- kind for its highest developmaut in the century now nearing the close of its first aecade. M ne problems now pressiog uren thougkt and conelderation are nof only those that =ffect the well being of the iad.vidual bui society in all its va- ried aspects and relations. Every sphere in which man moves and every vocation to which he devotes himsélf affects and is affected by these prob- lems. They are not superficial.

The ideals set up for the Meriden public teachers to follow are contained in new rules and regulatiogs recently issued. The sections herein given are good reading and well worth the peru- sal of anyone, whther employed in the schools or interested In their govern- ment, says a Meriden exchange. Article III QGeneral—Section 87. The superintendent of schools is the repre- sentative of the school committee on all educational matters and Is respon- sible for the efficiency of the school Under him are the principals, grade and kindergarten teachers, and th janitors. All these employes whos work lles in the schools are respon= sible directly to him and only indirect- ly to the school committee, In a gen- eral way this indicates the relative seniority in authority, though each is directly accountable to the superin- tendent also, schools must be rivals for high degree of efficiency, yet without jealousy. Principals and supervisors must conduct their work with the knowledge and consent of the super- intendent. Responsibility thus central- ized and work performed in a harmoni- ous spirit are the fundamental essen- tials in the administration of the schools in Meriden. Article V. Grade Teachers and their duties. Section 142—It shall in gen- eral be a duty of the first importance on the part of the teachers to be models in personal appearance and in conduct for the pupils under their care or with whem they come in con= tact. They are especially enjoined to avail themselves of every opportunity to inculcate the observance and prac- tice of neatness, promptness, polite- ness, cheerfulness, truthfulness, hon- esty, patriotism and all the virtues that contribute to the effectiveness of the schools, the good order of soclety and the safetyq of our American citi- zenship. It is expected that every teacher will by all possible means endeavor con- stantly to reach a higher standard of teaching. All opportunities for special or general culture should be eagerly and consofentiously employed to the furtherance of this end. Railroad Wrecks. The frequency of railroad wrecks nowadays would seem to indicate that some of the companies which have been making special efforts to prevent loss of life have relaxed thelr vigil- ance. No doubt there are many unavold- able railway accidents. The operation of trains is a hazardous business at best and there are {nnumerable and sometimes inexplicable sources of cas- ualty. At the same time it is unde- niably true that a large proportion of these accidents are due to carelessness on the part of railway employes. Newspaper reports of wrecks too often record the fact that the wreck was cause by '‘a mistake in orders.” ‘Not infrequently it is a case of the delib- erate violation of orders. There is room for suspicion that all roads do not deal as sternly with in- fractions of discipiine as they should; that some of them are disposed to overlook departures from orders where trains are brought in on time and that investigations of accidents are al- ways so thorough as to unish the guilty and promote public welfare. The adoption of safety devices and improved methods of train dispatching have done much to lessen the chances of accidents. The betterment of trncg and the improvement of rolling sto are benficlal factors to that end, m offset in some degree by the c tendency to cut _time schefdulegm= Loutsville Courier-Journal. _ _Beyond His Strength.
