It is an indisputable fact that the rule of supply and demand directly af- fects the prices of all food products; and in days when there were no cold- Jtorage plants and men were less giv- to tricks, things because of an over- rbundance became very much cheaper bhan they do in these early days of the twentieth century. However, since the middlemen have wmays to decrease the supply, by either festroying a paft or by preserving it In cold storage, they have managed to equalize the supply of a great many good things and keep it under the demand, which, of course, keeps the price at a higher minimum than it used to be and makes the average price much higher. There is no getting away from the fact that shortes s and higher wages make eerything cost more, and the supply of workers being much less than the demand diminishes the amount of the output and gives an increase to the price because of the Mvely demand. There is nothing has more to do with the ups and downs of prices than 3he relation of quantity to the people Yo which it is to be distributed for a drice. DEFECTIVE GAME LAWS. There is no doubt Senator McLean's Mill for the wuniform protection of ne birds is appreciated by honora- ms]mr(smcn in all parts of the coun- ir The way they are slaughtered shown by the following statement from a correspondent to the Philadel- phia Record, who said: ‘“Last Satur- day two men killed one hundred ducks, sixty of them canvasbacks, and two others, shooting from a blind, bagged three hundred on another day —the birds, at this mating period, be- Ing almost as tame as chickens, s0 that the floc! when fired into, move only a few Yy Stories that are 8! tially similar come from the New Jersey shooting grounds. All of them tend to anger a sportsman almost yond the limit of endurance “In Massachuseits, Maine Henpshire and New Yor! the case stands, ducks are safe from the guns a8 they wing their way north in Mareh and April; but in New Jersey, Mary- land, Pennsylvania and Delaw be- New re more ducks are killed during the spring flights northward than in all the rest of the year. Shooting is permitted as late as April 10 in New Jersey, Penn- sylvania and Maryland 15 in Delaware. Ducks in their housekeeping pr ations by that time and sy marks for even poor shots. Perha : unscrupulous slayers who slaughter them do not know, or do not care, that every duck then killed means the cutting off of six from the next fall's supply.” It is to be hoped the states will give better protection to our and that congress will which can be enforced. and until April are absorbed game birds enact a law HAT IN THE RING AND MONEY IN THE CAMPAIGN. It appears to be a fact that Mr. Rocsevelt's campaign is well financed it the people did call him, and with $15,000 sent to meet the expenses of the Indiana convention, it is not strange that the r Its are very dis- appointing. The timore American Says Money is to be used to tempt weak men to swear to false allegations for the sake of getting seated Roosevelt adherents. This waste of money is deplorable, not simply on account of the waste, but epresents the vitiation of politics upon the high plane of selecting candidates for the highest office in the land he virtual incitement to and false swearing that this fund represents is a decency and an outrage aganist the republican party and the American people.

WHAT THE PRIMARIES SHOW. There are peculiar statements com- ing from the seeker of a third term in the White house, as the primary re- sults are determined in several of the important states, They all indicate the character of the man who utters them and show how stilted and egotistic are the sentiments of him who feels himself “called by the people.” Be- cause the people elect delegates for anyone except Roosevelt he can see no earthly reason for it and sets up the pitiful cry of fraud, the last-ditch stand of a beaten man. 3 In North Dakota he was beaten and laid it te the faulty primaries and the democrats, though his pet scheme of presidential primaries was in use, In Indiana he secured only a minority of tbe delegates and declared it was brought about by foul means, and promised to carry the wish of the peo- ple to the Chicago convention, main- taining, despite the primaries, that he was the one wanted, The New York show down, almost unanimously for Taft, results in a pro- ! longed cry of fraud and outsiders, all indicating the state of nervous anger and collapse of hope, which is ap- proaching with the realization that his quest is a failure. New Hampshire and Colorado have declared for Taft, so that Roosevelt is not getting the solid west or portion of New England that he made claim to. He is finding on the opening that his longed for gladhand is turning into a cold reception, the LaFollette delegates even preferring Taft to Roosevelt, In strong contrast to the ex-presi- dent's antics over the way the people are turning him down, is the steady and persistent campaign of Prosidenl‘ It is not characterized by fire- s and red-hot volleys of threats, he whined not because he failed to get better than third place in North Da- kota, and uttered no complaint because a delegation of governors failed to call on him to get him to bhe a candi- date. He has pushed along conscien- tiously and honestly, as during his ad- ministration, that the people's wishes may prevail and the votes of com dence in Taft, which the primaries everywhere Indicate, give ample as- surance of his strength and the choice of the people.

NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 1912 The Bulletin's Special Yale Letter The Revision of the Athletic Constitution—35 Colleges Repre- sented at the Y. M. C. A. Conference—The intercollegiate Triangular Debate—The Electric System at Yale—The Baseball Team. One of the most important questions with which Yale athletics has ever been concerned has developed this week in the matter of revising the athletic constitution, in so doing abol- ishing many of the present individual asscciations and boards by merging them under one head. the Vale Athletic assoeiation, and the present football, baseball, and track associations, the Yale financial union, the atbletic committee and its advis- ory board are done away, according to the proposed changes, and all their powers and proverty transferred to the Yale athletic association. The system of choosing athletic managers is one of wne most noteworthy points dealt with in the new constitution. By this plan, it is hoped to better the athletic relations of the Sheffield scientlfic school and the academical department and to Jo so the men are to be chosen under a competitive basis. I'he new constitution has been given a thoreugh discussion during the w d President Hadley, Dean Jones, alter Camp and others have ex- pressed themselves thoroughly in favor of it. The guestion of adopting it will be put to the university at mass meeting next Monday and a two- thirds vote will carry it The old system of governing athlet- ics has long been felt to be too cum- bersome and complex, and it is be- lieved the new arrangement gives a far more efficient method of filling the managerships of looking out for the financial interests of the varlous branches, and¢ on bringing these into a nearer relationship with each other and consolidating university interes In connection with the athletic con stitution, the subject of athletics for all has sprung up this week with re- newed vigor. A new system of boat- club work and rowing has been pro- posed whereby all men interested.in rowing, whether of university calibre , may come out, and class base- has been planned along some- what the same lines. In regard to ath- letics In the past, Bdwin Oviatt, edi- tor of the Alumni Weekly, says: “Our system has been, in effect, to develop university and class teams and crews, and to leave it to the average man to get his exercise largely by rapping his heels on the bleachers, or What has been wanted has been at one and the same time to develop our intercollegiate athletic lsaderships and develop general under- graduate sports. The two aims are not incompatible, they depend on each The return to graduate coaching in rowing and baseball, the increased playground space at Yale field, and the constitution will be important steps in reaching this end, Mr. Oviatt believes. Thirty-five colleges of the east w represented at the Y, M, C. A. pr dents’ conference held at Dwight hall that ended Sunday Among the new features of work ussed were the activities of the C. A, among the college graduates, carried on by a recently formed alumni department, The fourth annual intercollegiate triangular debate, between teams rep- resenting Yale, Harvard and Princeton will be held tomorrow. e Yale neg- ative team meets Harvard at New Haven, the Yale afiirmative team Princeton at Princeton and the Prince- ton debates for' the go to Cambridge. The subj for three de- bates will be the same Resolved, That the United States government should accept the principle of monop- oly and regulate prices in all cases where the monopoly has been brought about by the action of economic Jaws. The prospeets for Yale are fairly bright this year. The men who meet rd have had aiready one or two experience in the intercollegi- wh the team that goes to Princeton is made up of three men who have much experience, one at Brown university, and the others in the south and west. The Yale teams are Serri, 1913, for the ne tucker 1914 I S., for the affirm- and Foster 1912 D, ative. Dean Jones, in discussing the elec- tive systemn at Yale this week, stated “intenticn is to encourage students to Tibs prepa n during the first two vears of the college course, studies for these years being extensive, and each student must, from the three main di- visicns of ti curriculum select one linguistic subject, one mathematical or scientific subject and one his al or philosophical In addition to these three subjects. two others may be selected; in freshman year the con- tinuation of some work offered for en- trance must be maintained and in sophomore vear three of the subjects studied in freshman year must be con- tinned. It is then, that for one-half of the ge course, the studies cover a considerable range of subject matter. During the junior and seniors years, intensification of studies is required, a major and a correlated minor being necessary for graduzation. But as these seldom excead 15 hours of udies, one-half of the student's time may be devoled to feee electives. If a man expects to study medicine or engineer- ing, It is almost absolutely necessary for him to devote himself to prelimi- nary work preparatory to these pro- e e e e This head is | fessions, but for any other students it is desirable to choose studies for their cultural value. In view of the amount of time which men are permitted to devote to substantial cultural subjects the criticism seems hardly justifiable that “the modern college course pre- vents men from obtaining an educa- tion.” In the list of elections to the uni- versity fraternity, Alpha Chi Rho, i8 the name of Thomas Kelley Hendriclk, 19138, of New York city, formerly of Norwich;.

Bible Question Box Your Bible questions will be an- swersd In these cslumms or by mafi If ment to our Bibie Question Bex Editor. Q.—An able minister recently re- marked that scientific research in re- gard to the formation of the earth, is coming more and more into agreement with the Genesis account of creation. How can this be when scientists de- clare it required thousands of years, while the Bible says that it was all ac- complished in six days? (E. 8.) Answer.—The term “day” is used in e Scriptures, in a number of in- ances, with the signification of an epoch of time, and not necessarily a twenty-four just as in the vernacula ‘in Washington's day,” « lay when Greece was supreme nesis ii, 4, it is stat- ed that the work of creation was exec n one ‘“day,” meaning, of in the time or epoch of six 2 periods the work was accom- The Scriptures declare that rested on the seventh day, and the evidence is clear and strong that this day of rest is seven thousand years in length. This would imply, therefore, that each of the creative days was likewise 7,000 years, or 42,000 years for the entire period of creation. Science is in thorough agreement with this, the reasonable, Scriptural teaching.
