Governor Holcomb has issued the annual arbor and bird day proclama- tion fixing the date for the sixteenth of April, but how many individuals or communities are making any ef- forts to put into practice what is rec- ommended, either on that particular day or at any other time? Happily there are citles, towns, &chools and organizations which make it a point to give extra thought to the birds and to set out a certain number of trees each year, either for the Te- placing of those which have been re- moved for different reasons during the past vear, or for the completion of a plan of beautifying the streets of a community. Such a display of civic pride is being manifested this year in New Haven, where 1500 new trees are 10 be set out by the city forester, a thousand of which will be taken from whie nursery which the city maintains for that purpose. A movement of that Xkind is bound to be of lasting benefit to a city, a fact which will be more fully appreciated as the trees develop and become not only a lasting orna- ment but a benefit to property val- nation. Bxamples of that king are worthy of emulation by every community and great are the opportunities for par- ticipation in such a plan by almost every city. New Haven has been for a long time noted for its elms and under its program it proposes to re- tain its reputation even though in do- ing so it finds it advisable to set out many other kinds of trees. Cities which are fast losing their shade trees are wise in the adoption of some such method before they are forced to ad- mit the fact that they have only sun- scorched and unattractive residential sections. e 1905, average .. March 27 ... DROWNING NON-COMBATANTS. Germany will have to labor hard and long to justify the action of its sub- marines in the destruction of passen- ger vessels and therefore the sacri- fice of the lives of not only non-com- batants but, as far as the command- ers of the underwater craft know, of eitizens of neutral countries. The largest loss of life since the order went into effect six weeks ago occurred as the result of torpedoing the Falaba off the Welsh coast. For- tupately a fishing boat made it pos- &ible to rescue many from a watery grave, but in the carrying out of Ger- many’s policy that boatload of res- cued might with equal justice have been blown up. Germany has been able to cause no little annoyance to the commerce of Great Britain by its submarine tac- tics, cven though it has paid well in the number of submersibles and their crews which have been lost, but when it comes to deliberataly attacking a passenger vessel without any regard whatever for the non-combatants aboard and for all they knew citizens ©of non-belligerent countries, it is go- ing too far even in the cornered posi- tlon wherein Germany finds herself, No other country engaged in the war has any such act to its discredit. The destruction of the ships of a bel- ligerent nation is a legitimate act of warfare, but even so, it should not be done without making every effort to | Bave the lives of the passengers and erew aboard. TFar more to the credit of Germany would it heve been had the submarine permitted the Falaba to have gotten away than to have taken one of the lives of those aboard. DANGER IN SUBMARINES. The sinking of the submarine F-4 is not the first evidence of the dan- ger involved in that branch of the mavy. It s a perfl which exists at all times, whether a country is at war or at peace. There are not even the opportunities for escape which pre- vail in the life of an ordinary sea- man. The whole dependence rests upon the manner in which the me- chanical contrivances are operated. If “everything goes all right those who down into the sea in such ships ve little reason to fear for their safety, but it something goes wrong, and it is of a serlous nature at all, the chances of their getting back alive are small. Conditions are encountered |2 measure of self defense, tion in submarine service which keeps the ranks filled. There is never any lack of enlistments in that branch. It is on a par with the aviation ser- vice and proves a magnet for those who are fond of going where more than the ordinary courage is required and those who are not satisfied unless they are in the midst of dangerous undertakings. The risk, however, is not maintained for the purpose of sat- isfying such ambitions, but the loss of F-4 indicates the shortcomings in the perfection of the underwater craft and the fact that accidents will hap- pen efther above or below water, though there be no negligence, TIME TO MAKE A START. The failure by the committee on roads, rivers and bridges to deal with the question of dazzling headlights does not indieate that it Is a mat- ter which can be passed over without any action at this time. It ought not to be neglected and the attitude of the committee simply places it before the general assembly ltself, for it is a anger which is In great need of at- tention and regulation before it gets any worse. In calling attention to the fact that Hartford does not permit the use of dazzling headlights within the city’s center, the Bridgeport Telegram makes the suggestion that “if cities will gen- erally adopt their own regulations in this respect and the state will attend to the use of dazzling headlights on the highways, all trouble will be elim- inated. But as long as motorists use these lights on the roads, others will feel the nccessity of following suit as and there will be no real progress made in hand- ling the questio Certain: until there is of the complications. In cities there is no nced of the strong and blind- ing searchlights and Hartford has un- questionably felt the need of the ac- tion it has taken. The Telegram's idea might work out well enough if all cities would adopt uniform regulations in that regard, but for every city to adopt different requirements would make it risky for the autoists travel- ing fram city to eity. Adequate lights are necessary to in- sure a proper view of many roads as a matter of safety for the vehicles which carry them but it is no more than proper that they should be so regulated as to show a proper re- spect to other users of the highways, instead of increasing the dangers, and the state through thé legislature should require it. It is time to make a start. PROHIBITION DURING WAR. Fven though great surprise was ex- pressed by the action of Russia in prohibiting the manufacture and sale of vodka, since it was a national monopoly, and subsequently the orders issued by France against absinthe and other strong drinks, it was neverthe- less recognized that such steps were necessary for preserving the efficiency of the men in the army and main- taining a proper morale. Thus it 1s only natural that the same conciusions should be reached in England, as set forth in the statement by David Lloyd-George, for while the declaration is prompted by the drink- ing and carousing of men at home, their services in certaln occupations such as shipbuilding and other lines which contribute to the preparcdness of the country are as important to the nation as those of the men in the fleld or trenches, though less hazard- ous, England has discovered, though later than the others, that drink is the worst foe it has to contend with. Just at the time when the best results and the greatest productivity are demand- ed it finds that it is not getting them at home where no interference with personal liberties in the way cf drink has_occurred, ‘Whatever steps England takes in this respect, and whether total prohi-'| bition is enforced as recommended, it is a question which indicates that it must be viewed with greater con- cern following the war. If it is con- sidered of so much value to men to keep liquor away from them when fighting, the same reasons hold true Wwhen there is peace, EDITORIAL NOTES.

It malkes no_difference whether they are shot down, killed by bombs or drowned, such taking of non-combat- ants’ lives is not warfare. About the state “the veivet ham- mer” s making its appearance.

Let us hope it is a fact that nothing of the kind has occurred and it will be to Turkey's credit if such a thing never occurs again. Petitions, prayers and songs for peace are being advocated as a nation- al undertaking, but just at present the pefformers are giving very little at- tention to the audience.

Really, I al- most lose my faith in women when I think how hard it s to get a little sewing done when I want it. “All my skirts were so narrow that, as T said to my husband, I simply looked like a last year's stovepipe. I made up my mind to get a spring suit early, and I found the most beautiful goods for it, at a real bargain, too. ‘No, this isn't it. This is something else. I knew exactly how I wished my suit_made, so I thought I'd risk hav- ing Miss Cargen do it. She has sewed for me a long time—made little house dresses and lingerie things and she charges only $2 a day. I always give Ler car fare one way, 8o that she can get to the house early, but I think after sewing all day It's more whole- some for her to walk home. She necds the fresh air.

I tried to inspire her with enthusiasm, but when I said THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Soclcty Aixla Chapelle—Among all the places on the map of Europe that have been made scenes of feverish ac- tivity, none surpass Aix-la-Chapelle —a3achen the Germans call it. Here endless supply trains start out over the fan-like system of railroads to the front, and from the front con- verge the trains bearing their vast loads of wounded, converting the Aix region into a great hospital camp. With the return of spring a more atting and more charming place could not be chosen for the convalescence of the sufferers from the trench and shell torn fields of Belgium and North- ern France. Aix-la-Chapelle is set into the hills, surrounded with a superbly green-notched skyline, and sheltered by terraced forests, broken, here and there, in pleasing variety. Aix-la-Chapelle Is a place of scenic Deauty, a home of modern industry, a city of churches and of relics. More- over, it is a health resort, and has been such since the days of the dis- ease-worried high-life of Rome. There are no better known or more oppres- sive curative springs in Europe than the hot sulphur springs of Aix-la- Chapelle. Perchance Charlemange en- Jdured the healing offices of its waters wEenever his health became impaired through his_strenuous, bloody exer- tions toward the conversion of the heathens. Since the establishment of the Em- pire, Aachen has sought to forget and obliterate its advanced age by the adoption of a sleek modern dress, and its large business of cloth, silk and metal manufacture has won it prom- inent place in the scramble of modern cities for industrial and -commercial Tenown. Yet Charlemagne was crowned here, and here is his tomb. Further, the modest cathedral near the center of the town has been the scene of the crowning of thirty-five emperors and of eleven queens. These facts must ever thrwart Alx-la- Chapelle's efforts towards becoming a thoroughly modern city.” Napoleonic Wars Continual—"While the spring campaign in Europe's great war is opening up”, says a statement issued by the Natlonal Geographic Society today, “and the question is pending as to whether or mot the coming summer will end hostilities as those of Napoleonic wars were ended in the year of which this is the cen- tennial,"it is Interesting to go back a hundred vears for a glimpse of the process by which the map of the con- tinent was recmade at that time. n March, 1814, Great Britain, Aus- tria, Russia and Prussia entered Into a treaty binding them to stand to- gether until peace was concluded. A little less than three months later France, with Napoleon beaten, entered into a’secret agreement with these powers giving them the disposition of all countries which the Little Cor- poral's fall had liberated from French control. The Allies decided to hold€. con- gress at Vienna for the distribution of the spoils of war. As soon as they met there Great Britain, Austria, Rus- sia, and Prussia decided that they would first settle all controversies themselves, and then call in France and Spain to ratify what they had done. France was represented by Talleyrand, and he declared that France would never give its assent to such a course of procedure. Sweden and Portugal were finally added as members of the congress, and it was not long until bones of contention were thrown into the arena of debate upon which the four Allies could reach no agreement among themselves. One of these was the question of the dis- position of Saxony and Poland. Rus- sin Insisted that she should have the whole of Poland as the price of its contribution to the war. England through iis leading _representative, Lord Castlereagh, firmly opposed the pretensions of Alexander. “The diplomatic war continued for a number of months with England standing by France, her late enemy, against Russia, her recent ally. Fin- ally, with Russia showing no signs of Vielding, France, Austria and Great Britain entered Into a secret treaty of defense, the purpose of which was to force Russia to terms. The Allies probably would thus have fought among themselves at that time, just as the Allies did after the Balkan war a few years ago, had not Napoleon re- appeared on the scene of action as their common enemy again. “The outcome of the bickerings in the congress resulted in Austria and Prussia_retaining most of their - Po- lish dominions, with the remainder going to Russia under an agreement that it should be a separate kingdom, ruled by the Czar of Russla, accord- ing to its own constitution. Switzer- lpnd was given a constitution; Italy retained Lombardy and Venetia; and Holland kept Belgian, Luxemburg and Limburg. Sweden, losing Finland to Russia, secured Norway as compensa- tion. : “England made a proposal that the slave trade of Europe should be abol- ished, which resulted in a declaration of abolition, leaving each country free to fix its own date of abolition. “It was the purpose of the Emglish representatives to secure a solemn guarantee from the members of the congress to make collective war on any nation that might undertake to disturb_the agreement of partition. This plan partook something of the neture of an international court such as is teday recommended by many peace advocates. But the return of Napoleon forced the adjournment of the congress, almost before it had parceled out the territory at issue, and wholly before it could take up and adjust those matters which might have the more fully made for perman- ent peace.” THE COMPLICATED LIFE NORWICH BULLETIN, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 31, 1915 to her that she'd be charmed with the material when she came Monday she exclaimed! “Why, I can't possibly go to you next Monday. That week has been engaged to Mrs. Dawes for two months.' Wasn't that annoying, when I needed my sult in such a hurry? I just told her that I thought it was very short sighted of her not to ac- commodate such a good customer as I had always been, and that if I hadn't thought she would come to me any time I wanted her I never would bought the goods. ‘Can’t you possi- bly get Mrs. Dawes to let me have you next week? I asked. ‘I should think she'd be glad to do a little favor like that.’ 1 hardly like to ask Her, she an- swered. Then I said in a very final ‘Do just what you think best, s Cargen’ ‘Well, Tll see what Mrs. Dawes will o, she said, hastily, and I hoped that she would be able to_come to me. “But that very evening I remem- bered that a dressmaker, Mrs. Crink- ley had lately taken the apartment be- neath ours. I was vexed when she moved in, because I do hate to have any sort of business going on in the house where we live. As soon as I thought of it I ran right downstairs to see what sort of person she was, and 1 found her a really superior aressmaker.

My husband said I ought to let them find it out, and he was quite anrioyed when he saw my mald come in Thursday carrying the German sil- ver mesh bag that he gave me a yéar ago.

You know I'm as frank and open as a child, and I can't bear to decieve anv one. But, as bad Iuck would have it, the very first time I wore the suit downtown I met Miss Qargen, who was having a Saturday half holiday. She looked at me up and down until I felt as guilty as if I bad committed a crime, but I said casually that it was wonderful how easily one could be fitted in ready- mades nowadays. “I don’t know what Tl do if Mrs. Crinkley sees me In this costume, for I told her I was perfectly destitute, and I was, nearly, when I told her so.

New Jersey is considering a law to regulate dazzling headlights on auto- mobiles, appointing & state commis- sloner for that purpose, with power to examine automobile headlights. There is a demand for such action in Con- necticut. In cities where arc lights are frequent on the streets, there is no cause for the use of automobile headlights at all, as the side lamps are sufficlents. Headlights are a cause of accident, rather than a preventive un- @er such circumstances. Trolley cars track, and are all the harder to avold. —Bridgeport Telegram.

The complete revision of many methods of warfare, which even ex- perts did not in the leas pate, are discussed by Major E. Moraht, retired, In a recently published article entitled ‘The Length of Battles.” No longer ago than 1912, Major \hit points out, General von Bern- i in “Time and Its Startegical and actical Importance” declared that ‘the battles of the future need not be longer than those of other European vars” and that “one-day battles will be the rule, longer ones the exceptipn.” General von Bernhardi's conclusions were based on studies of the Boer and Russo-Japanese wars, among others, and yet, within three years of their publication, Major Moraht shows, the predictions’ of the general have proved to_be wrong. ‘We certainly will not defend our- selves behind walls and in_trenches,’ wrote General von Bernhardi, and vet ‘we ‘have been doing just that for more than six months” says Major Moraht. “To all friends of the of- fensive—and what soldier is not its friend—it_sur. painful that we no longer can “believe in a war of move- ment and operation before we think of one of inaction.’” “We must unlearn part of what we ad been taught, and we must cling to the zood old theories only in case it shall be proven that mistaken lead~ ership led us to adopt the method of long-continued figkting in one posi- tion. The verdict is yet to come. It is not the duty of the present to ren- der it but of the future.” In declaring that the battle of the future would be only of a day’s dura- tion, General von Bernhardi declared that the unusual physical characteris- tics of the battles in the Russo-Jap- anese war, taking place in difficult country and around fortified places, made it no criterion for future con- flicts. And vet, Major Moraht points out, trenches and the long drawn out battle have been the rule from the dunes of Flanders to the hills of the Champagne and the mountains in Car- pathia. As differentiated from former wars, Major Moraht declares, huge 1 have not necessarily led to decisive victories or defeats. Some ‘new im- pelling force” seems to have entered all the conflicting forces. The general, commenting on the methods of the Japanese in retreating when fire be- came too accurate and returning to the attack later, predicted the same in the next future war. Yet, says Major Moraht, the French have not lost nerve in the face of terrible losses, the Germans do not lack it in bloody offensive and defensive movements, ard heavy sacrifices have not hindered the Russians nor stopped them from reflirning to the attack again and again. Change in Training. The old pouter pigeon type of Brit- ish_soldier with his ramrod-deport- ment ang_feet at impossible angles is now as obsolete as his red coat. This change is evident not only in theretain. ing of the new army, but in the royal cadet schools at Sandhurst and Wool- wich. _Alertness and agility, mental and physical, are now aimed for in- stead of physical rigidity and me- chanical precision as in the old times. Swedish exercises have taken the of conventional calisthenics. About the only piece of apparatus left in the Sandhurst gymnasium is the padded horse. Parallel bars, rings, heavy dumbbells and pulley exercisers have been sent away. Now the cadets are taught what is known in their slang as monkey tricks, such as walk- ing on top of a high and narrow stone wall and jumping safely to the ground, skipping the rope and playing vari- ous kinds of games. One reason why the pouter has gone out of style Is its menace to health. An overdeveloped chest is held to be dangerous as it invites pneumonia and other troubles.
