November 9th and 10th—today and tomorrow—are cleaning-up days in Norwich They might better be called “Fire Protection or “Health Tmprovement” days. The boards of health in many Amer- ican cities compel a clean-up twice a vear in the interests of health. The mayors and civic societies ther cities lead in this work as aid to cleanliness and good repute, and 50,000 old greasy tin cans have been turned in as a piled-up eviden ~f the good judgment of inaugurat- ing such work. g The chief engineers of several cities take the lead in this work, as Chiel Stenton does here, in the interests of fire protection, since some Kkinds of »ubbish readily engender spontaneous eombustion. The Bulletin hopes that in the next twe days Norwich back yards, Nor- wieh cellars and Norwich atties in all parts of the town will be giren attention, and the worthless truck be taken out of the business places and burned, and the smell of bonfires be upon the air as evidences of out-of- doer clearances. The Rose of New Engiand, like the best of cities, has plenty of rubbish te burn. of an The November elections do not hold muwch comfort for the insurgent re- publicans or the democrats, but rather glve strength to the prophecies that the trend of the country is back to Taft and the wise policies he repre- sents. Massachusetts, New York. New Jer- sey and New Mexico all show in re- sults the republican trend, New Mex- jeo electing two republican congress- meén and by the election of a republi- can legislature making sure of the election of two United States senators. The socialists have reason to take heart, for their cause appears to be in the ascendant They captured Schenectady, N. Y. in the municipal election., and have probably carried eight Ohio cities. They seem to have made a deep impression as the party that does things. JT.ooking over the entire field, the democrats find few crumbs of comfort The dyed-in-the-wool democratic states remained as dense as ever, al- though there appeared to be indica- tions the republicans had captured Maryland. There is nothing in the results dis- | couraging to Taft or his supporters with reference to the ‘probabilities of 1912, THE CROSS-CONTINENT FLIGHT. The first aviator to fly across the continent from ocean to ocean was Galbraith P. Rogers, who holds the world's record as a cross-country long- distance flyer. He left New York city on Septim- | ver 17, landing in Pasadena, Cal. on November 5, covering in that time | 4.281 miles, or 2,966 miles more than the best previous record for cross- counmtry flying. While actually in the air, he averaged better than 50 miles | an hour for the entire distance, v hich | would make it a ten-hou'*-day trip—a persistent performance which there is no present prospect Harry N. Atwood, who previously | held the record. flew only 1,265 miles | in his dash from St Louis to New | York, but he had his original machine | nractical intact at the end of his| journey and might have continued on indefinitely if he had so desired, whereas Mr. Rodgers met with serious ' mishaps almost at the very beginning of his journev, and did comparatively | little sustained flying until several | days after he had winged his way up 1 from the metropolis. Aviator Rodgers moved across the ontinent with caution, and to his zood dgment as much as to anything clse may pe attributed his success. ten { of France has given.

The Journal of that city, comment- ing upon Mayor Reilly’'s action, says: “The Journal holds no brief for the voting machines, and their institution here will make no material difference with this paper, but it seems to us that for the mayor to delibefately Pblock their adoption for a cond time is thwarting the will of the people through the representatives they elect- ed to transact just such business as this. About 6,000 voters at the adjourned annual town meeting showed they were unqualifiedly in favor of the use of voting machine Nine-tenths of those. voters are also voters in the city. They were afraid to take further chances with the Australian ballot and its complications, the varving opinion of judges as to meznings. and the worry it produced in the ming of elector that he was running a good chance every time he used it of losing his vote. S citizens were disfranchised at election and Meriden does not that to happen again. “Any person who says that the cit- the last want jzens of Meriden could not learn to operate the voting machines effec- tively between the six s that must elapse between today and elec- tion time is making a misstatement and is doing it to cover the real pur- pose of the move, which purely political.” A TRIUMPH OF COMMON SENSE. This is what the Providence Jour- nal calls the triumph of the people of Rhode Island at the polls on Tuesday when they sastained the constitutional amendment which makes elections in future biennial in that state. The Journal, in its giee over sults, says: “It ig difficult to believe that anyone could seriously contend that republi- can institutions would be endangered if state officers were not chosen every vear, or that salutary reforms would be materially checked by the fact that the re- there could be no annual agitation of them. Every consideration of con- venience and economy dictated the change from a custom which, however | venerable and respects was out of narmony with modern conditions. There is too much politics the country over rather than o little even a two vears' term in office gives the repre- sentatives of the people no more than the confidence experience of a fair chance 1o just reposed in them. T every other state in the union but one has made this conclusion indisputa- Dble. Rhode Island is well rid of a icustom beneficial only to professional politicians. It a victory for com- meon sense.’ ¥ EDITORIAL NOTES.

My father hired a team and we all started for Webster to visit the lake, which is near that city. L We stopped at Thompson to join two rhrties, and they made the ride more pleasant. When we arrived at Point Breeze, which is on the shore of the lake, it was about dinner time, so we fed our horses. We then spread two biankets on the ground and we set our food on them and ate our dinner. ‘After dinner was over we went and bcught some ice cream. We then took a, ride to Beacon Park in & boat which T enjoyed very much. After I took my boat ride 1 was of- i fered an automobile ride to Webster and accepted it. 1 enjoved that ride the most of all. After I got back we started for home. While we were on the way it began to rain, but we did not get wel, for we had o top on our wagon. When we zot home it was dark and 1 was very tired. BILLY. Killingly. A Fortune. One day a man was walking along the street, and he was =ad at heart. Business was dull, he had set his desire upon 2 horse that cost a scusand dollars. and he had only eight hurndred to buy it with. There were other things, to be sure, that might be bought with eight hun- dred, but ne did not want those; so he was sorrcwful and thought the world a bad place. The next day he wrote a letter to his brother asking him 1o lend him iwo hundred dollars to put with his eigh: hundred dollars to buy a horsc. In a few days he got a letter from his brother saving that he could have the money. The next day he went and got the money and bought his horse, and also a wagon. The next yeaw he put the horse on the track and made money enough to ray back the money he had borrowed. RUSSELL WHITEHOUSE, age 11 Mansfield Center. Betty and the Gypsies.

Once upon a time there was a little negro boy about 11 vears old who wanted to get a good job at work. e told ome of the officers of the United States government that he knew all about the work that men do at the White House. The president had sent a dishonest man away from his work the day before. Now the president needed someone to take the dishonest man’'s place. So the president. ordered the highest offi- the negro. The officer to the nesro said “How do vou turn the key ink you turn hit dis way swered the negro. “Try it,” said the officer. The negro tried and tried agaln to pbsh the key un instead of the way we always turn a key.

But the rest of the little band were so delighted that they begged Tim to show them how he did it. “It's not very eas: at first,” Tim, modestly, dropring down for « moment on all-fours to scratch his car “It tock me a long time to learn.
