Do not think this is a queer old world of ours for it ie just as good as any world ever made; but there are a lot of mighty*gueer people in it, ‘and it isn’t strange we get confused sometimes.

The impressions we make will be all right if we do not try to part their hair in the middle. There will always be a servant girl problem—so the mistresses say, cause the servant girls are so queer; and so the servants say because their that the whole amount is not charge- able €o the veterans of the civil war alone. The cost of the army and navy on a peace footlng is now mnearer $250,000,000 a year than $200,000,000, and the consensus of opinion seems to e that it is money well spent; but is it money better spent than the mil- lions which go to ald—for it is mot nearly sufficient to support—the vet- erans who prevented the success of secession and the establishment of two antagonistic governments where there is now one undivided country?

WHAT CONSTITUTES REFORM? Somerville, Mass., is just entering upon a reform government with a new charter and under it the number of municipal committees is reduced from twenty-one to seven, three major com- mittees and four of secondary im- portance. Every alderman has two places, one on each class of commit- iees. As a comsequence members of the board will be generally more fa- millar with the business reported by committees and better able to argue and to vote properly, and city business will be transacted with mere despatch and less of a burden on a few men. The change in the aldermanic com- mittees, says the Somerville Journal, is expected to prove the most pracy tical improvement in the method of ranseicting city business since the new charter was adopted, Mayor Burns in his inaugural ad- dress was conservative, but in it he extolled all the virtues which have placed Somerville in the front of Mas- sachusetts municipalities. He de- clared for the protection of trees, for the maintenance of no-license, for bet- ter school accommodations, for uni- form system of accounting, for en- courngement of high-class commer- clal interests. In blazing a new trail Somerville seems to have had in mind and put upon paper a good one. —_— A NEEDED LAW. Since all nations have military spies abroad making notes and taking pie- tures of fortifications, and of late Jap- anese sples have been discovered on the Pacifie coast and In the Philippines it is hoped that congress will pass a law similar to the laws passed by other governments for.the proper punishment of this sort of work. Since January, 1907, there have ‘been twenty weil authenticated cases of Japanese spies on the Pacific coast and in the Philippines. Especially aggravating in recent months has been thelr activity around the fortifications of Manila. They have been caught red-handed, with plans of the forts and with blue-prints in their posses- sien. Amd yet the most that could be done was to put them off the grounds. ‘The present congress will be asked to pass a law bearing upon the sub- Jeet, a little milder than that of other countries, but sufficiently stringent to restrain these agents from doing such work. Fer the simple disclosure of military {nformation, the bill should provide a fine not exceeding $1,000 or imprisonment not exceeding a year, ¥or the giving of such information to a« forelgn government, the penalty is t6 be imprisonment not exceeding ten vears. Such a law is one of the pen- alties we have to pay for getting into werld politics and holding insular possessions. Just so long as the pres- ent military and naval craze endures, it will be necessary. i HEALTHGRAMS. There never was a time when more attention was being given to the ence of keeping physically well than marks the endeavor of the people of this day and generation. While there are many methods for fostering health they are all ome in purpose. The board of health of one great igricultural state Issues “healthgrams” for the people to remember. Here are some of them: tablish the charge and rid the govern- ment of the impostors. CONQUERING THE AIR. Those who have been full of expect- ancy and no little fear with reference to aeroplaning and air lines within the coming decade will be surprised to learn that Wilbur Wright says: “It will be nearer 2,000 years than two when we shall be able to fly from Washingten to New York in two hours and many -years will elapse before the aeroplane will be used 'for transporta- tion.” . The Wright brothers are the lead- ing wrestlers with this problem, and it has been their work to demolish all theories -which, were evoived before their time and to make from practi- cal experience the rules which would be found to be practical for all time. it was slow work. for them to cope with the first probleme—the sure methods of making a heavier than air machine go up, operate against the wind and safely light. They made their way and proved to the world that aeroplaning was possible and air na: igation a future possibility. There is a great deal to be found out about the perils of the upper heights yet: and great inventive genius will be necessary to make machines of suffi- cient tensile strength to carry freight and passengers and still keep them light and durable. It is those who know nothing of the dangers or diffi- culties of the work who in their en- thusiasm expect to see the sky dotted hourly with airships in a few years. Aeroplaning has come to stay and to grow in power and utility and pepu- larity; but it will take an age to per- feot it instead of a decade. EDITORIAL NOTES.

So long as the germ theory is made an every day subject for conversa- tion there will continue fo be people scared to death. An Indiana jury has decided that chewing tobacco is a necessity, vet 80 per cent. of the people on. earth get along without it. The republican whe said that the democrats could be relied upon to scuttle their own party must be pleas- ed with present signs. There is an editor in Georgia whose name is Fuller Wind; and a brother editor says it is remarkable that he can keep out of politics. A western editor notes that 1911 is slipping down the corridors of time. He ought to have become used to that sort of tobogganing by this time. It takes seven , thousand million pounds of sugar = year to meet the American demand, and all the world has to admit we are sweetest. The men who think that the pres: does more harm tham good in any place must have a poer opinion of the ability of the citizens to keep things going right. mistresses have such strange notions of their social relation to them. The following may seem to you to be & joke, but it isn’t: First lady: “I always iry to treat my maid as if she were a member of the family Second lady: “Gracious, how do you get her to put up with #t 7 Now any good sensible girl wouldn’t put up with it. The ser- vant girl's relation to the household is a purely business relation, and they desire ta be used with comsideration, to given fair working hours, to be given as many privileges as a shop &irl, and to be bossed as little as pos- sible. The boss who says the least is the one who usually gets most help from lis working force. There's too mueh foolishness and friction in the servant girl problem. There is no so- clal ‘problem in it; and as to being used like one of the’ family—that is just what a wise servant has no desire for. No one oan tell why the average man would rather lose 325 betting on a horse race than to have to pay a $2 poll tax. He will sit down and fix up “saddles” ‘with the pelicy man in a syre game to lose money, but he doesn’t care to enter upon famiHar terms with the tax collector anyhow. He doesn’t regard him as an enemy, but somehow he doesn’t seem to be- long in his class—he cannot figure out that it is possible for him to be con- genial company. Man loves to take a chance better than he likes to go up against his prejudices. He will ask what he gets for tax money; but he will not permit anyone to ask him what he gete on a wager. That's dif- ferent. Man will mortgage his house to buy an automobile and sometimes go to jafl rather than pay a just tax. It's just his way of looking at things. An Australian woman is said to have iven the following toa: “man:"” A man may be a failure in business, a wreck in constitution, not much to boast of as a beauty, nothing as a wit, less than nothing as a legislator for woman’s rights, and not very brilliant as & member of the préss; but in our own father we overlook his shortcom- ings and eover his peccadilloes with the divine mantle of charity. As our fathers they are inexpressibiy-grand; as our husbands how we do love to parade them as our parago In the language of the poet, ‘We'll lie for 'em. We'll cry for ‘em, And if we could we'd fly for 'em; we'd do anything but die for ’em.”” 'We confess that she strikes us as being a woman of fine percep- tion and of fluent expression. It is pleasanter doubtless to be toasted by :xer than to be roasted after her fash- jon. The test of pisty is not confined to a person’s regard for or conduct on Sun- day, since there are six other days in the week. The piety which stands the daily trials of business Iife is the real thing whether it ever sat in a pew o not. We mortals might think better i€ we tried. Tolerance where goodness and white necktles assembles looks bet- ter than intolerance; but I have seen men who were apparently honest try. ing to learn the truth by fighting free- dom in thinking; and men who thought they really were walking with God when they were only wobbling before men. The man who has most faith in his fellowmen is usually nearest to his Heavenly Father., The people who think they, wear halos are never able to find them when they look in the glass. Tt is funny that a crooked man can imagine that he looks straight: but a straight man knows that he cannot appear to be crooked. Neatness, accuracy and willingn are referred to as the three graces the business world; but they are just as good for the shop, the factory, or the home. They tell for thrift, har- mony and progress—pull together for success in every direction like three -horses in a Roman chariot. They cre- ate atigosphere in which peace is established and industry goes forward with a will. They are just as useful in the possession of the mind, only there they sit as purity, righteousness Those were the days when each 1it- tle section of the world knew only its own affairs. General intelligegce was a thing unknown, and we all know how little it broadens character to hear of nothing but one’s own daily routine of the doings of one’s own little village or clique. Provincial is the word applied to such now-a-days, but provincial means world-wide com. pared with five centuries ago. -~ Whence comes this change? Many causes have brought it abut. Several at once come into the mind. A few adventurous souls dared to go out into the world beyond their own precincts; | the tidings they brought back,. half” believed though it was, was still a stimulus to sinilar effort on the part of others willing to brave uncertain- ty for gain or fame. Then came printing, which opened up a new world to those living in darkness; add to this the telegraph, telephone, postal service, modern means of rapid tran- sit in travel, and we can well under- stand our advantages over our ances- hors of those days. We wonder they knew as much as they did and are quite proud of them on the whole for finding a way out of such adverse surroundings. Should we do as well if placed in similar circumstances? Probably not, must be the candid ver- dict of most of us, for in all stages of the world’s progress, it has always been the few who became leaders, and what right have we to think we should have been among them? With all our advantages most of us are only among the crowd who do what we are told, and are swept along by public opinion and general cutsom. We are not compelied to look back five centuries to find equally great changes in the lives of zome classes of people. Woman's place and work did not advance as rapidly as did that supper thap~it is to go home to eat. Do not think the world is doing busi- ness on business principles all the time, because it isn’t. A good object often has to make large sacrifices to get recognized where revenue is the ane thing necessary. Some people who pay 10 cents for 25 cents’ worth of food say with considerable egotism —*“I'm always ready to help a good cause!” You bet, when you get twice what it cost: SUNDAY MORNING TALK THE HASTE TO GET POOR. Why this hot-footed scramble among the millionaires to get rid of their money? H#ve we not been told from our youth up that every Ameri- can boy should early become a wor- shipper at the shrine of success and by means of frugality, industry and sagacity, take his placein the million- aire class in due time. Do not “get- rich-quick” schemes flaunt themselves in eur faces as we gpen our morning mail, and is not the money-getting passion taking firmer possession of most of us from year to year? Yea, verily, but set directly athwart this stream of tendency an opposite disposition appears. John and An- drew and other captains of industry and masters of finance seem to be carrying on their old game of com- petition, but this time shey are rivals in the effort to part with their for- tunes in such ways as their kind hearts and shrewd judgments prompt them to do, and they are not the only men who are imitating Santa Claus, not simply at Christmas time, but all through the year. Evidently the deep-seated desire "to grab and get is being met by a coun- ter passion to give and serve. Wheth- er or mnot. the turn of the tide has really come, we hail theee indications as harbingers of a better day. It e O ettt e S et S L D R S SRS tation of pupils to and from school. | sometimes wonder if our advance in ease and comfort is equally an ad- vance on all lines. Is life really bet- ter and happier because of all these advantages for development? The children are better-informed perhaps, more active mentally; are they strong- er in character? More seif-reliant certainly, are they more restless un- der restraint and less readily con- trolled? It seems sometimes that the tendeney is in that direction, and that the community are beginning to re- cognize a_defect in the training of the young. We find children of twelve or fourteen formi clubs on the same plan as_their elders, for cards, for dances, for dramatics, for Iliterary work, for pleasure and of alil sorts. What is left for their enter- tainment as they edvance in yedrs? There seems to be no dividing line between childhood aend society de- mands. There should be. Self-reliance should not be aliowed to drift into lawlessness, such as we t0o often see on our streets. When the mother is devoting herself to bridge and matinees, what ehall pre- vent the children from loafing idly about in search of -.su.am.nt? ‘Too many parents throw all responsibility of moral training upon the teachers of day and Sunday schools, and seem to think their task is ended when they send their children neatily attired to school. Nothing can take the e in moral training of a loving mother's care or a watchful father’s advice, es- pecially if they remember that ex- ample is better than presept. We should remember that much is required where mucl. is bestowed. Compare our blessings with those granted to generations preceding us, if we will, but while we are thanlkful, let us also be watchful. -, AN IDLER. give a good deal to recover the zest of the days when they were much poorer, and indeed scrimped, so far as earthly possessions go. The only sensible and safe course is for the money-maker and the money-getter at the outset of his ca- reer to look upon money simply as a means to an end, and that end the serving of humanity. God gives him the power to get money and he has a right to exercise it, but he must seek it chiefly as a tool wherewith he can add something to the higher and finer life of the world. He may frankly ad- mit that he is after money, but after it for moral ends in order that he may bring about certain needed changes in society, that he may educate the il- literate, feed the hungry, clothe the nakdtd, put an end to internatiomal &is- cord. Only such an atm dignifies the pur- suit of wealth, apd the kingdom of God will come fully in the world when the money-makers are i as great a haste to give away as they are to ac- quire, when they look upon themselves as stewards and trustees, but not as sole owners of what they have. This attitude will make them more scru- pulous concerning their methods of acquring money, more careful about their personal expenditures, more eager and more competent to give aw&dv money where it will do the most And for those of us who are not millionaires or never expect to be, the lesson is also needed = that sharing what we have, be it little or much money, be it knowledge or influence or good cheer, is the only way to live happily and to die ‘contentedly.

It is to be known as the ‘onnecticut ornithological- experiment station, a branch of the Storrs agri- cuitural experiment station, under the Connecticut agricultural college. Here will be tried out all sorts of experiments relative to the value of wild birds te mankind. Among these will be researches as to the value of birds ‘to agriculture, fruit, and foliage; methods of the increase of useful birds and the methods of the artificial pro- pagation of game birde and wild fowl as a new industry and asset to the state, including a systematic effort to start landowners in propagating their own game and on a large scale restocking the depleted covers of the state. This would be done both through personal supervision, where desired, - institute lectures and publi- cation The latter would consist of syndicated press letters by the state ornithologist and by {llustrated bulle- tins published by the state through the Storrs experiment station. Mr. Tilley, who will be assistant to the state or- nithologist, is one of the leading ex- perts on game propagation in this country, who has visited the principal game preserves of Burope and learned their Successful systems. In Burope the propagation of game birds and wildfowl is both a profita- ble industry and a successful mode of stocking the country with wild game In this country is beginning a great awakening on this subject. In the west and elsewhere wild ducks are be- ing ralsed by thousands, both for the markets and to stock Pheasant raising is very profitable and there is demand for them, un- dressed, at $3 per pair. Various na- tive game birds are being éxperiment- ed with, and there is special demand | for quail. Prof. C. F. Hodge first practicaily solved the problem of rear- Ing them in captivity, and recently va- rious people have begun to do it with moderate but encouraging success— enough to show that it can be done on a larger scale. A large number of people in Comnecticut are eager to g6 into game propagation and are writ- ing to the state ornithologist. Vari- ous sportsmen’s associations in the state are taking action to have these methods tried out. Private game pre- serves, some of them of from one to two thousand acres, are being estab- lished in various parts of the state, where game is to be both preserved and propagated. The volume of and demand for this movement is some- ¢hing astonishing. i new work, though requiring but a very small outlay, is yet with- out any appropriation whatever for its maintenance, but the state agricultur- al college, realizing its value to the public and the demand for it, is hav- ing it started, in faith that the legis- lature and the game commission will assist, The latter has an annual in- come -frem -the hunters’ licenses of over $15,000, which, according to law must be used enly for the increase ol game. Most of this amount has hith- erto been spent for the purchase and liberation of Hungarian partridges and it is reasonable ‘that some should be used now for the propagation of our native game.
