Norwich, Friday, Feb, 2, 1912, A QUESTIONABLE ECDNOMY The Washington Star questions the economy which would save $240,000,000 by cutting out two of the new battle- ships proposed for construction. There is no doubt this might prove o be the wildest extravagance as the Star intimates, considering the pres- ent disturbed condition of the nations and the naval programmes which are being sustained by all the great fight- ng nations, Speaking of the near possibility conflicts and the embroiling of nations in strife, The Star says any of these secoming one, ut as a world power we must be pre- pared for ncles.

The one for Connecticut already as- sured to New London promises to be made an institution worthy of the | name. Now there is an endeavor in Maine to convert the Westbrook seminary Malne like Smith, Wellesley or Vassar. The leader of the enterprise believes that at least $100,000 could be raised in a short time for the purpose and that in three or four years there would be 300 or 400 pupils. The Portlind Express, in consider- ing the matter, says: “So far as we can learn Maine edu- cators seem to favor the idea of a woman's college. They point out that while the co-educational colleges do excellent work the majority of young women greatly prefer the colleges founded exclusively for women and therefore leave our state to aftead them, “It is true that the number of young women in our state who fit them- :s for college grows constantly mrger and it may be the time is zipe for Maine to establish its woman's college. It, naturally, would be a matter of regret if such an institv- tion should be built up to the detri- ment our other colleges. The women's clubs have taken the matter up and we shall doubtless hear some interesting and instructive arguments on both sides of the proposition.” A STORY OF PRICES. There is no doubt some things are kept high for fear they may become too cheap to handle. It has been said crowded fruit mar- kets in New York have in the past been relieved by casting large quanti- ties of good fruit into the sea to re- duce the supply and proportion it to the demand. A western labor leader tells of a vis- to Texas where he saw farmers king the peach trees in order that the hogs might feed on the fruit. It cost the fruit growers of Texas sixty cents to pack and deliver peaches the price offered them was less than sixty cents. At the same time, peaches were retail- ed to housewives in the north at $2.25 pel. The labor leader recites servation by way of showing at difference betw n produc- ling prices, The greatest problem today Is how to get produce to the consumer, und \lso manufactured goods for less cost, is plain enough that the producer is eing pinched as well as the consumer .\f them. age that calls for the de- x of blacking or a yeast nize that the pay for omed N i service must be charged up to something else, EDITORIAL NOTES. thought for today: The truth spoken sometimes when it was not tended.

Q~—Is there any positive proof that our Lord Jesus was born on Christmas day, Dec. 25th, and if so where can it be found? (A, 8.) Answer—There is nothing to prove that Christ was born Dec. 25th, but the evidence is clear and strong that the time of His birth was about Oct. 1st. 1t is generally recognized that Jesus was crucified on Friday, April 3d, A. D. 83. The fact that His cruci- fixion occurred at the close of the J4th day of the month Nisan, and that this date rarely falls on Friday, but did so in the year A.

New Haven, Feb. 1, 1912.—The sta+ tistics of the class of 1912 were given out this week, and in contents were as interesting as the answers, some seri- ous, others not, that are usually given to the questions that seek to get at the sentiments of each graduating class, Arthur Howe, captain of the last year's football team, was voted the man who had done most for Yale, who was most popular, and who was most to be admired. The best all around athlete was voted to be Merritt, captaln of the baseball team, second string quarterback on last fall's eleven, and prominent in other lines of sport. Merritt was given 173 votes, while Arthur Howe was second with 64. One of the jokes was the choice of the laziest man in the class, and al- though there was no close contest for that honor, Raymond A." Parker was given 28 Votes, leading his nearest bt b h i plan of similar organizations at Prince- WIS By - gatais ton, Cornell and other universities.

This story is perhaps the most wide- ly known of its author’s productions and has always delighted young and| old. It ig well suited for intermediate German reading, because it displays! the power of Hauff's imagination, and | while it shows literary skill of a high order, it abounds in idiomatic expres- slons which are interesting and use- ful to the student of German. This edition contains numerous notes, ex- plaining all grammatical difficulties and idiomatic psages; composition ex- ercises based on the test; and a com- plete vocabulary, giving all transia- tions, Winsted.—Miss Anna K.

They have a great reserve strength without increased weight. They conform to the styles of the present day without exaggera- tion and mold the figure in the correct lines with- out discomfort and without injury. We carry these well known corsets in a good- ly number of the most popular designs. Number 319 — This model has the low bust with long hip and back perfectly confin- ing the figure and reducing the hips by bands This model supporters and heavy means of the of elastic webbing. has four hose front steel. Made of fine coutil. Sizes 20 to 34. Price $3.00 Auto-Massage MMMWNMMMR The elastic bands of Lasti- kops webbing (on inside of corset) perfectly support the abdomen from underneath. The new form of Nemo Self Reducing Straps (on outside of corset) gently reduce the abdomen. The triplicate tops of the hose supporters give three distinct pulls — down- ward, oblique and horizontal. The combination of these de- vices supports and sustains the surplus flesh in such a position that, with every movement of the wearer, the F-R flesh is subjected to an automatic massage, but with- out the least sensation except that of comfortable sup- port, and this constant action gradually softens the fatty tissues which are then absorbed and removed by the regular natural processes. It produces an actual and permanent reduction of the figure.
