It is a cause “to which the support of every citizen ishould be given whether the added “attraction of a baseball game is pro- ;vided or not. The playsrounds have been conducted in this city in a man- ner which has.demonstrated that they ‘should be continued, They not only \furnish a healthful place for the chil- idren to play, but they serve to keep them from the streets and its dangers iend away from mischief and harm, ! in the past the association which {has so capably handled the playr grounds has found it necessary to rely to a large extent upon individual in- terest and contributions, and the prob- abilities are that it will have to for some time to come, but it is a move- ment which makes such an appeal that it cannot go unheeded. It is engaged In doing something for the children. It Is engaged in furnishing that to which they are entitled if a community is going to give them proper considera- tion and it should gain in return that generous and active support which is mecessary for its continued success. The city which does not give proper sttention and protection to the chil- dren is grossly neglectful of its duty, Bnd it is not appreciative of the ser- vices which are being rendered in its behalf unless it gives support to the mssoclation which is engaged in such B worthy and altruistic undertaking. The accomplishments in the past fur- nish sufficient endorsement for the continuation of individual and com- munity assistance. DISCIPLINE AT ANNAPOLIS. It is a pretty kettle of fish which has been stirred up at the naval aca- demy at Annapolis and it is a matter In which there should be no let up until the investigation has gotten at the bottom of the situation. Practices have been revealed which cannot be tolerated in any institution of learning ®=nd much less in the school where the future admirals of the American navy mre getting thelr training. There can be no winking at such cheating just because it has happened elsewhere. The country is vitally con- cerned in discipline as well as the mental and physical education of the cadets and it cannot tolerate actions which strike most seriously at that very thing. If there is any weakness in this regard from any cause, polit- fcal or otherwise, it is high time that It was overcome. The high standard of conduct must be maintained if the purposes of the institution are to be livea up to. 2 jt is understood that cribbing can be practiced and advance knowledge of examination papers can be obtained without penalty there is a most se- Tious menace to the future of the naval Echool. Not only does it mean the worst sort of unfairness to those who do not descend to such practices, but It encourages the disposition to shirk when there is a duty to perform and that is the last thing which should be taught to any candidatp for office in the navy of this country. Prompt punishment should be ad- ministered to students or instructors, if both are involved. Now is the time to emphasize the fact that there-is such a thing as discipline. WILL BE JUNK SOON ENOUGH. The strong opposition which has arisen against.the sending of the Lib- erty bell to San Francisco has by no means subsided. 'he opposition is not the result of selfishness or a de- sire to deprive others of a privilege ‘which is now permitted to only a small part of the population’ of the coun- try, but is based upon the sensible ground that the bell is a historic relic which 1s so closely connected with the early and important affairs of this country that every effort should be made to preserve it. It has long been in a weakened condition, which con- tinues to increase and though it comes at a late date the appeal of the D. A, R. that metallurgists be secured to make an examination of its condi- tion and the possible results of a trip across the country is well directed. It is but natural to feel that the shocks which the bell would recelve in transit would tend to increase ths \crack and result in its separation into \pleces. If the bell is sent it should be wtopped. forsbriet exhibitions at points el el el e et e e = = along the reute. Such is only fair to the people who can neither get to the fair nor Philadelphia. This would increase.the Jjolting and it 1a proper to determine whether, the bell which has Deen on the.sick ‘list for so long can stand it. It is only what ought to besknown-about it before any sort of a journey is undertaken. There is a responsibilitysin the.preservation of the bell which cannot be disregarded with wisdom. If it can stand the trip, by all means let it go, but if it cannot, the only thing to do is to leave it where it is. It will become junk soon enough without hastening the day. PROTECTING THEIR ACTION. Rumania as was the case with Italy has leaders who are anxious to main- tain neutrality rather than engage in the war. In some cases it may be a sincere desire for peace, while with others such an attitude may be in- terpreted as a desire to render a ser- vice to another country through such action. How the stand of Alexander Mar- ghiloman for neutrality 1s viewed, by certain of the Rumanians at least, is indicated by the repudiation of his leadership by a majority of the con- servative party. What Italy dld was supposed to point out the course for Rumania and it has been viewed with surprise in the former country that Rumania has not cast its lot with the allles before this. The action of the conservatives discloses that in Ru- mania there exists that same popular clamor for the satisfying of the na- tional ambition as prevailed in Italy. Rumania, however, cannot be ex- pected to join in the war simply for the love of fighting. It is anxious to gain_that portion of Hungary known as Transylvania, but it also realizes the necessity of making terms in ad- vance of any actlon and knowing what its neighbor, Bulgaria is going to do. Unless they act together, or with a positive knowledge in advance as to what the other is going to do, and what they can expect as the reward for their entrance they would be tak- ing tremendous chances. This is the problem which they are endeavoring to adjust at the present time, ‘The time is ripe for them to get what they want and once they are assured that they will get it when victory favors the side with which they will allign themselves, then, and not until then, can they be expected to draw the sword. SHORT WEIGHTS. There is golden advice in the state- ment which has been made by Mrs. Heath of the Housewives' league of New York when, in attacking the widespread practice of short weights and measures she declares that it will not be broken up until the housewives themselves, by their own vigilance, prevent the imposition. Excellent work is being done in many states by the authorities for the elimination of these swindling schemes, but there is no question but what those who do the buying can render a most important service to themselves. Many can get away with their short weights because they are transients, while others know that there is slight disposition on the part of the aver- age purchaser to check them up. It means much work to welgh over again every article that is purchased, and it means some slight expense, but let it be generally adopted and those who depend upon cheating their customers must go out of business. It is faflure to deal honestly which makes profits in many cases possible. There are many ways in which the inspectors of weights and measures can be cir- cumvented, despite their vigilance, but with the knowledge that the public is interested enough to keep tabs on what they buy, the dealer who Te- sorts to improper practices will be brought up with a short turn. There is no business man who has anything to fear from the inaugura- tion of such a protective measure, if he is dealing squarely with his trade. The great trouble with such a plan, however, is that too many are will- ing to be swindled rather than go to the botner of reweighing. EDITORIAL NOTES, Mr. Bryan has fully preserved his right to talk and fight for peace. The cabinet as well as the country must stand back of the president. This country has an opportunity to sympathize with Switzerland, which is levying war taxes, It isn't that the president loves Mr. Bryan any the less, but that he un- derstands the country better. Strange as it may seem there are some who are still busy trying to ac- count for the election results. ( Tven the/ intrepid young Canadian aviator has reason to understand that the Victorian crosses come high. The president asks that there be no speculation upon Mr. Bryan's suc- cessor, but there is of course no harm in guessing what Mr, Bryan will do. I Even those nations engaged in the big conflict have their troubles. Ger- many now complains because the rules of war are violated by the Belglans. The steamship stewardess who com- mitted suicide by jumping overboard because she thought the ship would be torpedoed apparently believed in hastening trouble. The man on the corner says: Some people are o reckless with advice that they would tell the fellow with gout in Doth feet to put his best foot for- ward. With the revelations showing the need of more attention to the coun- try’s navy, it is right in line with his other troubles that Secretary Daniels should be confronted with a ‘leak” in the naval academy. If she has that ambition, and deter- mination counts for anything, that Indiana woman who has divorced thir- teen husbands and says she will con- tinue her search for the “ideal,” ought to live te be a hundred, Although Mr. Bryan's resignation was promptly accepted, it does not hold that the administration is not just as firmly convinced of the importance of peace as ever, but it cannot over- look the country’s rights. The retirement of Supt. Garvin from the reformatory at Cheshie cannot help being viewed with general regret. He was an excellent administrator of both state institutions with which he has been connected and his record stands to his credit. His retirement is the state’s loss. Joan Hall was in the midst of her evening’s work. She played the plano at the Lyric a moving plcture theatre. She had played there for two years six evenings a week. She earned $6 a week. Days she stayed at home and did the housework and minded her motherless little step- sister, while her father plied his trade as shoemaker. They were very Poor and that $6 meant a great deal. Joan was 19 and if she had had the right food and clothing she would have been pretty. As it-was she was so slight and colorless and forlorn that nobody ever noticed her. She was very glad of this, however, for a good many rough people came to the Lyric. Sometimes, even as unnotice- able as she was, she felt atraid. For her piano was in a corner close to the audlence. She had to see faces as well as the pictures and often the faces seemed too boldly near. Then she shrank into her shabby black dress and was glad that she had mot very far to walk to her home. She had grown sick of the pictures. And she was even more sick of the music she pounded out evening after evening. It was not such music as she had once dreamed of making, this jangle ragtime, these popular melodies played, now loud, now soft, according to the action on the ecreen. Music was her one talent, her one ambition, she felt. Partly by patient practicing on the old piano which had been her mother’s, partly by a few lessons from a teacher, who had seen promise in her, she had reached the point where she could piay any ordinary piece of music end play it well She had hoped to be able to teach, but at a particularly difficult time the place at the Lyric had been offered her and she had taken it. ‘And there she had remained ever since. She had come however, to regard her work as drndgery only possible becauee it paid. She dreaded the long, muscle and nerve wearing hours at the plano; the fleeing shadows on the screen; the proximity of unwholesome humanity. One night when a tipsy man had made some slight disturb- ance she had glanced up in her terror to meet the eyes of a man who sat over against the wall. Those eyes had a different look in them from any she was used to seeing—a kindness and honest pity that stirred her. He shifted his gaze instantly and she could see that he never glanced in her direction again. After a while she grew steady enough to look at him. Against the yellow wall his dark rough head stood out like a sil- houette. Tucked under his shoulder was a little 0ld woman with hair as bright as silver. _Frequently _she smiled up at him and it came to Joan that the old woman must be his mother. After that night he was often in the same place, either alone or with the little old woman. Joan never encountered his glance again. She betieved he had ceased to be aware of her presence, but it com- forted her to feel that he was there. She never was afraid when he was present. sradually she began to think about him even when she did not see him. She wondered who he was and where he lived. She even wondered what he thought of her playing, if he lis- tened. She began to weave in betttr music—bits of grand opera, old-fash- ioned songs, threads of Beethoven and Greig. One night she plaved the sextet from “Lucia” and lifting her eyes she saw an ex n of keen interest on his face. She knew that he heard. After that she played for him alone. She ceased to be conscious of anything but him. People and pic- tures faded away and she was alone with him, playing for his sake only Tonight she had known somehow before she looked to see that he was there and his mother was with him. She played all her prettiest things— the “Spring Song” and Gounod's “Ave Maria.” She played fast, loud things, too, between, for these were demand- ed of her. She was playing a mad ragtime melody, when suddenly and without warning he right arm sank to her side and remained powerless Joan's heart fairly stopped beating. She looked down at her hanging, nerveless arm. With her other hand she lifted and began to rub it. She was horribly frightened. Everybody was looking at her to see why she had stopped playing. She had never known before how much noise the piano made. It was so still now that one seemed to hear the characters in the picture upon the screen. She looked up at them with scared eves and then toward the man as if for help. Then she dropped un- conscious. She had been carried out into the vestibule, she found, when she opened her eyes. There was fresh air. or three strange faces were in the background, but the man's face and that of his mother were near. old woman was holding a_ handkes chief wet with camphor to tace. “T always carry a bottle of camphor in my handbag, in case I should be faint,” she was explaining to the man who 'took tickets, The man Who took tickets owned the show. He looked at Joan with herd eyes. “Don't you know that you've no business to come here when you ain't fit?>” he demanded. “Such a performance as this is enough to start a panic.” “That will do,” said Joan's man quietly. “The girl was not to blame for fainting away.’ *“I should say not,’ womean emphatically. Joan's hair, the bad air?” Joan looked up at her meekly. “No it ‘'was my arm. It dropped down, and I couldn’t move it again. I—I was frightened.” “Overwork,” said the man. “Mother, this is a case for the doctor. Lets take her to one at once.” There was a doctor's office across the street, and they went there. And there Joan learned that it would be months before she played again—that is, if she was lucky and ever plaved again at all. She turned so white at this cruel news that the old lady put an arm about her quickly. “Never mind, dear,” she “It will come right, I know. you'll have to rest awhile.” Mother and son accompanied Joan home to the flat where father was waiting for her. On the way Joan told how she came to be playing at the Lyric; and they told her that their name was Maclise, and that Jack, the son, was a machinist, and that he lived at home with his moth- er, who he thought the world of, though this last was not necessary. for Joan could see that, of course. ‘The strength came slowly back to the overused arm, and presently Joan could do all her housework as former- ly. And if she had not missed the money so much she would have been glad that she did not have to spend her evenings at the Lyric. Mrs. Mac- lise was very kind to her. And Jack was kind, too—so kind that Joan grew pretfy and rosy with hope and Joy. One night he took her and his mother to the yric to see the pic- tures. They sat in the old place, There was a man at the piano who made a great deal of noise playin Joan looked at Jack smiling. “Did my playing eound like that? asked gayls He shook his head. of a different quality. \(r\A know that's what attracted to you? 1 used to sit and watch you tll T was ashamed of myself, and wondered how you got there. 3 planned all sorts of ways of making myself known to you. And then fate stepped in. Some day, you'll be able to play again, dear, but you'll only play for me.” And in the darkness he found her hand and held it fast—Philadelphia Bulletin. agreed the little She smoothed “Tell me, dear, was it soothed. But ‘The Congressional Union, Mr. Editor: The luncheon given by the Congressional union at the Hotel Bond, Hartford, Tuesday was a bril- liant affair, one long to be remembered by the suffragists who were present. The toastmaster, Mrs. E. G. H. Schenk, of Wilton, introduced Mrs. E. O. Parker of Greenwich as the first after-dinner speaker. Her subject was Community Motherhood, and wa homb which stirred all {he slumbering motherhood of her hearers into a fire of indigna- tion over the incompetency of men to care for children along legislative, ex- ecutive ang judicial lines. She gave a most graphiC recital of her visit to the epileptic colony at Lakeville, where she found boys and girls who were herded in under conditions that are unfit for cattle. The nauseating facts which she unveiled were a burning disgrace to a civilized state. If they had come to us from China or India we would rouse ourselves to send mis- sionaries hither to convert them to Christianity. She closed her address with these telling words: “Corrupt pol- itics eats into the flesh and blood of our little children, and the reason such things go on is because the men in charge of government have no love for their charges.” It was a strong argu- ment in favor of the necessity of wom- en having a voice in our legislative halls. A government without the di- rect influence of mother-love is a par- tial failure. The second important speaker was Congressman Ebenezer J. Hill of Norwalk. Never in his long ex- perience as a public speaker has he dedicated his fine oratorical powers to a nobler cause. It was a masterpiece of eloquence, logic and wit. It was a clarion call to all men who have any sense of justice in their souls to rise and do battle for the enfranchisement of women. He said in part: “For a quarter of a century we have stood to- gether in promoting the interests and securing the welfare of more than ffty thousand women engaged in_the industrial life of this state. Why should we not at this crucial time still stand together and give them a volce and vote in making the laws which regulate and control the industries in which thelr living is secured and their life work done? For twenty years we have fought side.by side for honest money and a currency based on gold, not only for the whole nation’s welfare, but that nearly 400,000 women deposit- tors in the savings banks of this state misht always find_an unshrinking value in more than $150,000,000 of hard ecarned savings when they return to it, to educate their children or provide for their own declining years. Shall we refuse to trust them with their owm, and then compel them to help bear the burdens of the state by taxing them without their consent?” This is one of the facts that set his logical and sane mind in the direction of suffrage for women. The second event which plunged him into a sure conviction that woman suffrage was just and righteous was upon an occasion when he re- ceived an invitation to speak by some ladies on the Fourth of July. He chosé for his subject Government by Consent of the Governed. As a prepa- ration for his discourse, he read the first Connecticut constitution, the first written constitution in the world's his- LETTERS TO THE EDITOR tory, the Declaration of Independence, the articles of confederation and the constitution of the United States and then entered upon the composing of his address with a free and open mind. When he had finished he found to his complete surprise that he had argued himself into a thorough belief that government by consent of the governed not only implied but com- pelled equality of citizenship and equality of voting power. This argu- ment is so simple and plain it does seem impossible that a sane man can hesitate for an imstant in giving the vote to women. His whole address should be printed and used as suf- frage literature. At 3 o'clock an open meeting was held in the room adjoin- ing the dining room. Mrs. Annie G. Porritt was chairman and Mrs. George Day gave an impressive address of weicome, after which Prof. Charles A. Beard of Columbia college gave one of his optimistic speeches in which he gathered up the tattered remmants of our up-to-date civilization, at the close of this most atrocious war and reconstructed a new world in which a true democracy would reign, with men and women politically equal guiding the government. He gave most practi- cal advice to the suffragists of the Con- gressional union, which is laboring to secure an amendment to the United States constitution enfranchinig wom- en, called the Susan B. Anthony amendment. He said: “I know one congressman who began to listen to the suffragists when he heard the predic- tion seriously made by a man of weight that the votes of 4,000,000 women in 1916 would determine whether the next president would be a republican or a democrat. Ic you ‘Wwomen put any one of the existing parties above the suffrage cause you are not true suffragist. Politicians cannot live by orations alone. They live on jobs such as postmasterships, collectorships, and other fat plums which are given out by a party presi- dent. 'With all this true, what do you think the party leaders will say if you can tell them that if they are right on suffrage they can elect the president who hands out these plums, for the women will elect one-fifth of the elect- ors in the next presidential election. Mrs. John Rogers, Jr., of New York gave a very Iucid description of the difference between the Susan B. An- thony amendment and the Shaffroth- Fuotect Yowrotf!

OTHER VIEW POINTS Senator Peasley, who sued a Wa- terbury editor because he was accused of using public office to further his own ends, by getting appointed, illus- trates over again how public officials elected by the people could save them= selves much trouble if they would do away with the appointive office. Were it a case of all officials being elected, especially of the judicial type, the senator mentioned would not have been in the running.—Middletown Press.

Count von Bernstorff can do an in- estimable service both to his own country and to the country to which he is aeccredited by making clear to his government what the real situa- tion 1s. There is every reason to be- lleve that he is making every possible effort to do this. If, as now fortu- nately appears very probable, the United States and Germany succeed in coming to the “clear and full.un- derstanding” on the questions brought up by incidents of submarine warfare that the President stated was the ob- ject of his note of May 13, it should be remembered that such a result will have been mainly due to the ef- forts of the present German Ambas- sador.—Bridgeport Standard. State Senator Pierson, of Bristol, has been in a number of automobile accidents. Two years ago his car fi- gured in a fatality in Middletown, but he was absolved of criminal lability. He is now in another which he is not coming out of so comfortably. Coronor Mix of New Haven, finds him criminally responsible for the death of a little boy in North Haven, May 25. The senator, it is said, had in the car with him a grass widow from Hartford. The coroner says so at any wera due to the general cause of homicide. This leaves 51 accidental deaths for the month.—New Haven Register. Of yesterday's fires in Bridgeport two are reported to have started in piles of rubbish. It is true that neith- er caused any great amount of dam- age. This circumstance, however, is probably due mainly to the prompt- ness with which the local fire depart- ment appeared on the scene.
