Norwich, Saturday, Jan. 17, 1914, If it is a fact, as stated, that a man- ufacturing concern wants to locate its plant in Norwich but is restrained by the uncertainty of getting homes for its help, such an excuse if it is a le- gitimate one, ought never to be ac- cepted. If a city 18 to grow and ex- pand by inducing manufacturing con- cerns to settle in its midst and profit through the advantages which it pos- sesses, it must handle the question of such accommodations, and there is no reason to believe but what Norwich can and will. Such a statement is unfair until the city has turned down such a-proposition. If a concern ls impressed by Norwich as a place to do business and will enter negotiations to such an end, there is no reason to belleve but what such a problem can be readily adjusted. Norwich cannot be sald to have turned down such a proposition until it has been given a chance. But evem now such lenge should never be It offers an opportunity to the organizations which are devoting their activities to the building up of the city. Idle dwellings are not necessarily an inducement to indus- tries, and are certainly not a profit- able investment, but let the question of moving be seriously entered into and the demands of the concern as to dwelling accommodations be made known and there should be no difficulty in the interesting of capital to meet the situation. Good tenements are al- ways a benefit to every city and tend %o bring the average to a higher level and it is to be hoped that the demand can be created which will result in such an accomplishment. a chal- neglected REUNION RATHER THAN DISCORD In view of the action which has been taken by the Bull Moose in Pennsyl- vania and the intermittent. cry of hope from a follower of that organization, despite the constant trend of the rank aqq file to a reunion with the party which they left, it is an interesting position which has been taken by Sen- ator Bristow, an ardent progressiv when he declares in support of his de- termination to remain within the re- publican party that “T believe the rank and file of the republican party is thoroughly progressive. I am con- vinced that a large majority of this rank and file wants to work out the progressive reforms that are demand- ed through their old party aMliations rather than through a new party. I therefore feel it my duty to continue to work with them in the future as T have in the past. If we all work to- gether we will succeed. If we divide we invite failure. I believe the fun- damental principles of the republican party are sound and that it has failed only when its leadership has been un- true to those principles.” Senator Bristow is but echoing the statements of other well known pro- gressives who have seen the great- est opportunity for progressive prin- ciples in the support of the republi- can standard. There exists the re- cessity of continuing the fight for such principles through the presentation of a solid front, rather than in sowing the seeds of discord and playing into the hands of the common enemy. This sane and sensible position has and is still making a widespread impression, despite individual ambitions and con- tentions. THE HETCH HETCHY. There are indications that the Hetch Hetchy question has not been fully settled. What the effort will amount to as undertaken by Senator Works for the rescinding of the recent action of congress is uncertain. He volces a widespread public opinion regard- less of the feeling within the state of California, as represented hy him, that the legislation was obtained through false representations and a misappre- nension of the facts, From the vote oy which the right was granted it is evident that his fight is bound to be an uphill one if any progress at ali can be made, From the state of Californfa, how-~ ever, there is arising a cloud of ep- : position which will center upon the state legislature, and that bedy will be asked to wrestle with the question of the curtaliment of the water.which will_be diverted by the proposed res- ervoir. In the opinien of eertain sec- tions, whose farmers rely upon the river, it is a came of robbing Peter to pay Paul, when Paul does not re- quire it. Those who are to be de- bile drivers that they are approaching such institutions and that speed should be regulated to overcome any possible accidents through the children being in the street, is a step in the right direc- tion. As recently said such a provision is & duty of the tewn for the protec- tion of the lives and limbs of the schoolchildren, and it immediately eliminates that handy excuse of care- less and indifferent drivers that they failed to notice where they were, or didn't know the location of schools, near which there is always a greater danger because of the presence of children. It is needless to repeat that all driv- ing should be done with a proper con- sideration of others. It is Dy so doing that many accidents can be avoided and it is for such a purpose that reg- ulations are adopted. There are times when the vicinity of the schoolhouses present as many risks as most congested districts of a city and it therefore calls for a proper conmtrol of speed regardiess of what the law permits elsewhere in the city streets. The action by the selectmen calls for the proper response upon the part of the drivers of all vehicles. Even though it may be unnecessary warn- ing for many of the chauffeurs it is & precautionary measure which is to be commended. The signs calling for “slow speed” will be in accordance with state requirements. It appeals to reason and should not fail of re- spect. RESPONSIBLE FOR INACTIVITY. The course which Governor Glynn is pursuing in regard to the running down and elimination of graft scan- dals in the state of New York is not showing the progress which should characterize such an important mat- ter. The indications that he is about to make a change in the investigator, the declaration from Hennessey that 1t would require but about six minutes to unearth conditions which are be- ing sought, and the fact that he has shown a disposition to show ualterable opposition to District Attorney Whit- man and the extention of such au- thority to him as would permit his continuance of such work bevond his district, reveal a situation which does not display much enthusiasm. Rather does it show a lack of the proper in- terest in a matter of so great im- portance. How he expects to surmount this evil by the methods which he is pur- suing seems rather obscure at the present time. He has not strengthened his position or done politics any good by his tirade against Attorney Whit man. The efforts which the state claims to have been making have shown little results under the Glynn methods of procedure while the revelations and progress which have been made have resulted from the course of the very official to whom the governor has dis- played such oppositign. It is a mat- ter which deserves to move ahead and if he has some better method of at- tack and a superior force than that which he has so coldly turned down he should produce it. Until he does the responsibility for the lack of a clean-up rests with him, EDITORIAL NOTES. It is impossible to satisfy everyone as the weatherman must have long ago discovered.

In its fight to get hold of Harry Thaw, New York should have the sym- pathetic support at least of every other state. “To cut or not to cut” that ‘is the nerve-racking debate through which the negligent student and the icemen have to pass. About all that is lacking is a couple of feet of the “beautiful” to make it such an old-fashioned winter as is often referred to. There are a great many plumbers who must be respected if they set forth the claim to having discovered one of the poles. This is the season of storms and dis- asters but January is certainly losing no chance to keep up with the aver- age of its predecessor: The man on the corner says: We have reached the season when the song of the steampipes sounds the most like the voice of an old friend.

Whether the financial stringency in Mexico results in an attempt to force President Wilsons hand, it is bound to be an interesting subject when the day of readjustment comes. _ Congress may be actuated by the idea that the country is suffering for the want of new legislation, but it must realize that it is the best, not any old brand which 1s wanted.

His idea is to remove the poor man's breathing place and make the class who get so much henefit therefrom pay off the debt of the city threugh sacrifice, the & I A good friend once said to me when was a boy: “Do not take on a habit you cannot maintain. The boy who takes to tobacco or drink before he knows where the money is coming from to pay for either is in danger of becoming worthless and being obliged to beg or steal to support the vice ‘which got him before he realized the danger of it!” That didn't stop me, and it is not likely to stop you, my boy. I had to learn that every little vice led to flelds of woe; and that was the evidence of my heediess- ness. Fortunate, indeed, is one to escape who feels the grip even of a small vice upon him. Victims of vice today are trying to tell their fellow- men how to llve and how to dfe and they are sitting in judgement upon those who are a little weaker—a little worse than they. Bulwar tells us “one vice worn out makes us wiser than fifty tutors;” but a vice-worn man is as devold of sense as a mud-turtle and seven times as miserahle. To speak the truth there is no time in life when a man can afford to take on a vicious habit although it 1Is called a Httle vice! People who have the strength to do their own work and wait upon themselves do not realize how they have been blessed. They have no servant problem and are mnot con- fronted with indigestible food, or worried by inefficiency. They are not dependent upon help, and they are never enraged by careless or impud- ent. servants, and do not have to sit and weep because the kitchen me- chanic has suddenly left for parts un- known. The women in this world who only know how to direct house- hold affairs always reside too near to Misery avenue. Th are mnot sure concerning domestic problems. An uncertain culinary service engenders wrath and prepares the way for the doctor. Those who work for them- selves can have work done as they want it—those who do not can rarely get obeved. Domestic ability is what keeps life everywhere from becoming a maelstrom. We are to blame if we have too much to be sorry for. It is possible to carry sorrow so far that one comes to think he Is sorry he was ever born. It is a pitiable plight to be unable to find delight in life. Man is prone to blame everybedy but himself for his misfortunes, and if he gets into a mood to magnify them he can shut ail sunshine from his heart and create misery for himself and others. It is foolish to take trouble too seriously— everybody has more or less of it; and if all trouble that grows out from maliciousness and selfishness could be eliminated the trials of life would be s0o few no one would think of men- tioning them. Never allow yourself to think your plight in life is the very worst for it wouldn't take any time at all to find someone with more trials who have a great deal more happiness. I We should ail strive to know the worst foes of mankind so we may combat them. I wonder if a hundred persons should make a list of man’'s worst foes how many would place in- toxicating beverages first. A great many of them would, and all of them might think intoxicants must be among the nine worst, and yet it bas no place there. Enyy takes first place followed by Hatred, Malice, Pride, Arrogance, Crueity, Jealousy, Suspicion and Hypocrisy. Envy de- tracts from Virtue; Hatred stirs up strife; malice drinks its own poison; Pride goeth before a fall; Arrogance is the obstruction of wisdom; Cruelty is the weapon of Satan; Jealously is cruel as the grave; Suspicion is a destroyer of good repute; and Hy- pocrisy is the necessary burden of villiany. These are what make the mind a rough house and the master of it a perfect Hellibolian. To be forewarned is to be fore-armed against them. If people do not learn to have mercy upon themselves, I doubt whether they can. Too many housewives break down because they think they cannot take a rest. When a person feels prompted to say “I'm all tired out,” it is time to say, “T'll take a rest.” Taking a rest doesn’'t mean a long loafing spell. It never pays to go too far along theroad of Weariness because you can't see a spot to rest just drop right down in darkness. The work of a day has been easily doubled by just stopping an hour at the right moment. Work which must be done should be tackled cheerfully. Forcing one's self to do things against the will is not good work or good ex- ercise. If we cannot do as we want to, we should want to do the best we can. An adverse mood is a painful barrier in any line of work. It is easier to glide than to climb—better to stop than to fall down from ex- haustion. Harken to sound sense and some one will the doctor for you. not have to call We dwell, we think, beneath the star of liberty—we are free! Did you ever seriously ask yourself what free- dom is, or how free you are? Free- dom is of rather narrow bounds—my freedom ends right at the point where it encroaches upon your: We have liberty within the law, and not un- frequently the law encroaches upon freedom—for instance, when for pur- poses of taxation it says we shall tell how much money we are carrying in our wallet. 'We cannot be free of the governmental responsibilities which devolve upon us; and it has been de- clared, “No man can be free who is not master of himself.” We are a lot of dependent not independant crea- tures. I should not wonder if our concelts outnumbered our personal rights. We are a free nation in which the majority of citizens seldom, if ever, rule. The total number of voters is not_equal to one-fifth the popula- tion. . We are the freest nation on earth, not not the freest that will be. We do not put the right value upon work. All the soft-smaps in life are | man-made. God was never guilty of making one of them; and they do not mark achievement of any kind. Five centuries before the Christian era the scholars had determined that precedes all knowledge—work pre- cedes virtue. Although commercial- think it is possible to get something for nothing, there is nothing in the universe which corroborates it. It even took masterly work to conceive of a .system to impose upon the credulity of the people. The cost of every get-rich-quick system is hard work; and even their dupes have to be ‘work_ed" to yield to their magical promises. If you will look the world over you will find .work preceding everything, even the story of the garden of Eden. Only work produces satisfactory results in this world. these would admit it is our duty to be miserable, for they recognize that it it up to them to avoid that! Well, avolding the things which depress and annoy us is a part of our busi- ness in life. One good resolution is that we will not be made unhappy by those about us who persist in doing things which make them miserable when they know they are the cause of thelr own misfortunes, We cannot live life for another never mind how near and dear he may be—we can only set 2 good example—give good counsel, If these will not avail taking on a con- dition of unhappiness Injures us with- out helping the other party.

The name Hazel has become quite a favorite one for the girls of our country, although in other countries it seems not to be used, nor even in our own beyond the limits of New England, the region of witches. Hazel Brooks came to her parents in the late autumn, and received a warm welcome from her delighted parents, and from a large circle of admiring relatives. She was the first child of | Papa and Mamma Brooks, though their married life had covered several years. All the previous children in the family connection were boys, manly, lusty lit- tle fellows. This dainty little maiden seemed of a dQifferent sort, and was hailed as their ruling queen by the boys as well as by the older set of worshippers. For, indeed, their devo- tion exceeded their discretion till it well-nigh became adoration. Hazel could hardly fail to be a hap- py child. In fact, she would have been ungrateful to be otherwise. Her home was in the country not far from a ‘thriving city which had little to at- tract her. Thither she went often enough to become familiar with its busy streets, its thriving shops, its hurrying crowds, but she always re- turned from such trips glad to find | herself free once more from the tram- {mels of city ways. She was nature's child, and happiest when roaming about her favorite haunts of wood and stream. She soon became so well taught, though self taught, in all wood lore that she was often appealed to for & decision when higher authorities dis- agreed. Her decision was so general- 1y accepted by disputants that they be- | gan to say: “How has the little witch learned so much?” and called her Witch Hazel. Certainly the child, as she advanced to maidenhood, appeared to have the gift of sympathetic insight, which en- abled her to come to concluslons with- out apparently stopping to reason them out. Her sympathy overflowed to ev- eryone, her charity never falied her. She was an optimist, quick to see the good in all things, to find excuse for all failings, and was the last to be- lieve evil of anyone. Her parents found her obedient to their slightest wish. It was not difficult for her to obey; for, as I read recently, obedience is founded on love, and she devotedly loved her parents. Her heart was large enough, how- ever, to love more than one, and as she reached womanhood her affection was given to Philip Princely, a young man filling a position of trust in a neigh- boring business firm. Apparently he | was worthy of the confidence reposed in him by his employers, and equally deserved the love of Witch Hazel, which he valued as the most precious gift life had thus far vouchsafed him.

The beauty of ihe deposit in the bank of character is that it survives any shock of dis- aster whatever. It is well for us to think of our- selves habitually as immortal beings. Born out of eternity by the flat of God, the time shall never come through all the rolling ages when we shall not be. One may well treat with consideration that which is to outlast the stars. We should be willing to spend enough at least to make ourselves as attractive as possible for the service of man and for the glory of God. How much of his income may a| youth rightly expend on himself? None of it surely on extravagant per- | sonal pleasures. But she should not stint on a real equipment for life and service and happiness. His body should be properly nourished, clad and housed. His health must be con- served, his brain active, his education be the best obtainable. He should keep himself at the highest point of efficiency that his earning power be constantly increased. His case, in earlier years at lea is quite anal- agous to that of the merchant who systematically puts his profits back into the business in order to enlarge and establish it. any pursuit that men follow. 1 had { rather retain through life the ability to be inspired by good books for in- his couch in his last illness told his friend, Dr. Holmes, that he had for- { gotten all his bodily pains for he was deep in Rob Roy. A mind like that, sensitive to the appeal of the novel- ist's fancy and the peet's dream, is a greater possession than the weaith of the Indies. He who has trained his will to be a veritable dynamo driving him to choose the right, to preserve and to conquer he who has educated that imperial faculty named conscience, till, like a | compass with needle pointing due north, it guides him safely across the sea of life, has made an investment of eternal value.

Sums of money began to disappear from the lon of the mercantile firm who employed Philip Princely. Small amounts at first, but increasing in value as the thief grew bolder, assured that his peculations ~were not discovered. Strange to say, the accounts were kept correctly balanced, but the cash cer- tainly disappeared in some mysterious manner. Suspicion flnally rested upon Philip Princely. Who else could it be? Such were the murmurs that ran about the town, and people began to whisper among themselves and look at him with unkind glances whenever he ap- proached them. Even the firm, great- Iy as they had always trusted him, came to the same conclusion. All turned against him except Hazel. She stood by him when all others fell away. She announced boldly her con- viction that he was innocent of the charges made against him. She was opposed by her own kith and kin, who admitted that, much as they bhad ad- mired him, they feit that he had fallen under temptation like so many others in_similar positions. Philip felt all this keenly, and of- fered to release Hazel from the prom- ises she had made him, but she main- tained that she was no mere fair- weather friend. She had promised to be his alone, and through good report and evil report, she would stand by him. More than that, she meant to clear his good name and prove his in- nocence before the world. Only give her time and she will find the real thief. When she thus expressed the merchant in questio; he ex- sed a sincere wish that she might succeed. He had known Haze! from ildhood, and it troubled him to see her in such sorrow, but even his kind- ness could not conceal from her that he had lost faith in_Philip. “T trusted him too much,” said he, “and blame myself for placing temptation in hi it T fear even my dear little have to aimit I am on the 8 Who else could have done You will be more of a witch than I think yvou are, if you ferret out the matter to fix the blame on anyone else.” Witch Hazel felt that her reputation as well as her lover's, was at stake, and set her wits to work. Instinctive- ly she feit she knew the culprit, but to prove it—there was the difficult; Employed by the same firm was Charles Hinman, who she knew had access to.the cash trays of .the es- tablishment. She knew what others did not, that he was a rival for her favor, and was greatly chagrined that she accepted Philip instead of himself as her choice. If Philip were ousted by the firm, his own chances wouid be bettered in both business and love affairs. How could she prove him guilty ? Little by little Hazel wove the net of evidence against him. Step by step she advanced slowly but surely to- wards the goal at which she aimed. As slowly, but as surely, she won public opinion to her side, and people began to think Princely might not be so black as he was painted, affer all, Hinman, meantime, gaining hope of succeeding in his plans, overreached himself. Tt was found out where he had made in- vestments beyond the limits of his salary, and indulged in expeditures outside his reach in any honest way. At last he was brought to bay, and, finding discovery certain, he confessed his wrong-doing and cleared Philip of all guilt in the matter. Many were the congratulations show- ered upon Philip and his sweetheart, Hazel. “You certainly were a witch to bring about this result,” said the merchant, “and I hope a wedding will soon be announced, at which I can rejoice as much as I do at this triumph of yours and Philip” The wedding soon followed, and among the gifis was a silver service decorated with hazel catkins and at- tached to it was a card from Princely’s employers, which read “To our Dear Witch Hazel.” herself IDLER.
