There is again set forth, however, in a clear and concise manner the atti- tude of this country, its firm stand in behalf of the principle of humanity and the Jaw founded upon it but it is handled in the most friendly terms, even thouzh assurance is asked that Germany will put an end to jeopard- fzing the lives of American citizens ®nd respect their rights. It makes certain that country asks only that to which it is entitled, By the note it is made plain that this country fully recognizes the duty which devolves upon it in connection with merchant vessels and it gives Germany to understand that there was no laxity in the enforcement of its laws and that such representations as were made in the German reply were based upon wri confident of i not closed to which Germany thereon as information. Though position, the door is any further evidence may have bearing hown when the hope is ex- pressed that, if Germany still has what 3t belleves convincing evidence, it will submit it consideration, The note carries no threats and it 4 impossible to find therein anything avhich indicates other than a desire for an amicable adjustment of the sit- uation. It is pointed out with partic- ular refere to the Lusitania that Gernwiny has violated laws, in the makirlz of which it participated, and upon which evervone had a right to depend. Tt is called upon to do jus- tice‘and respect humanity where it has not prevailed under its war zone wolicy. The rejoinder is presented in a straightforward and diplomatic man- ner that is commendable. Its mildness makes the Bryan atti- tude amusing. the note he signed to which he is really opposed. THE UNFORTUNATE PART, The one unfortunate thing in con- nection with the resiznation of Wil- liam Jennings Bryan as secretary of state at this time lies in the manner in which it will be received abroad and especlally in Germany. It is open » the interpretation that it indicates divided support of the administra- tion, when as a matter of fact it rep- resents nothing of the kind. Mr. Br g to allow the net to outweigh From the pos an was simply unw remainder of the h cat h he has occupied in the cabinet he cannot be looked upon as repre- senting more than a very small minor- ity. He is an ardent advocate of peace but no more than are the other members of the cabinct and the dif- ference arises solely through the man- mer in which it shoul? be secured. That Germany is inclined to inter- pret it differently is disclosed by the i fons of the German press and espect the Koelnische Zeltung, when declares that “Tt must not be forzotten that Mr. Bryan plays an important role in domestic politics in America. The wishes of German- Amgficans will be fulfilled if hense- fohith America shows true neutrality and forbids the export of munitions; it weakness of his whole service in the cabinet. Mr. Bryan has found himself in the hopeless minority and it is time for him to keep quiet. — FLAG DAY. This country has gone through par- lous times; it has watched other na- tions plunge headlong into war and it has witnessed with the unbounded patriotism, the love of country and flag which have been manifested by the subjects of those countries. None the less, however, does patri- otism exist among the people of the United States. Yet, like everything else, it can stand proper and persist- ent stimulation and the anniversary' of the birth of the Stars and Stripes affords a fitting occasion. Our flag/has become the symbol of a mighty na- tion. It even means more to the people of this country than the flag of any other nation does or ever can mean to those who rally about thelr respective national emblems. Thus on Monday, the 13§th anniver- sary of our flag, from coast to coast and from boundary to boundary there should not only be a general display of O1d Glory, but an enthusiastic par- ticipation in the celebration of the day. It is a day when every American should take pride in paving homage to this insignia of our nationality and the country and principles for which it stands. The schools can be expected to. and undoubtedly will, look after the educa- tional work which is of so much value in that connection but Flag day ought not to be confined solely to the chil- dren. Neither should it be delegated to the patriotic orsanizations and al- 1owed to rest there, but each and every individual should manifest sincere de- votion to the flag of the country and what it stands for. Show yvour patri- otism, DISAPPEARANCE OF PROGRES- SIVES. Some time ago it was made evident that Medill McCormick, the one time strong bull moose booster, was not the progressive that he used to be. He had seen the folly and futility of the course and the wavering which was witnessed then has now been further indicated by a recent declaration that no reasons exist for the continuation of that party. It is even felt by such leaders that they never left the re- publican party anyway and that their actlon was simply taking sides in be- half of their favorite candidate, but however that may be the significant fact is that they are now openly ac- knowledging thelr allegtance to the re- publican party, which stands so firm- Iy for national welfare, progress and prosperity. Existing conditions may be what had caused some of the progressive lead- ers to throw over that party and re- turn to the republican ranks, but in doing so they are only following in the footsteps of the rank and file who some time ago understood that there ‘was no place for the third party and that their place was back under the standard which had dome so much for the country. The return of the third party sup- porters has resuited in the return to normal political conditions throughout the country and with the gradual rec- ognition by the leaders that their greatest opportunity for work and re- sults lies in the party which they left the end of the dissension is positive- ly assured. The new party resulted in the establishment of conditions against which they were working and would have received had they held true to their republican allegiance. Their ac- tions have resulted in an eye-opener and the abandonment of the bull moose is but the result of a sensible consid- eratlon of facts and conditions. It means the complete disappearance of the progressives. EDITORIAL NOTES. June gives evidence of having con- sulted some of the records on which its reputation was made. It doesn’t look as if it would be possible to let another year go by without awarding the Nobel peace prize. P Villa says he evacuated Leon for military purposes. More thanks to the general who invented the strategical retreat. The real disappointment lies among those Chautauqua committees who have already completed their pro- grams. The man on the corner says: Some people are so busy picking out the dis- cords that they overlook the harmonies of life, Even though the value of the clean- up movement hasn’t sunk in until this late date, whatever can be done for it is bound to help. The season has arrived when the fishermen must realize that the ordin- ary fish story measurements cannot govern when selling lobsters, There is going to be a big oppor- tunity for a public as well as indi- vidual vote of thanks to the generous owners of springs and wells. That the cabinet in support of the president opposed Secretary Bryan does not alter its firm conviction on the importance of peace There are good reasons to believe that when President Wilson makes his next appointment of secretary of state he will not pay any political debts. Col. Bryan received his title when he raised and commanded a regiment for the Spanish war. Possibly he hopes to be made general of the peace army, they would then have achieved a splendid success.” The fact of the matter is that Mr. Bryan is not representative of the centiment of the country. He stands by himself with his ideal which has not been developed to the point where it can be wisely adopted at this time. The country has not changed its at- titude or its support of the adminis- tration. It stands firmly for true neu- trality and it does not intend to de- part from its course. Mr. Bryan's act simply displays his unfitness for the position which has long been recog- nized by the country. Mr. Bryan in his opposition to the course the president and cabinet have taken and his appeal in behalf of other methods appears to have overlooked the fact that this country is simply ‘standing up for its rights, and rights ~which Germany as well as other coun- tries have promised to respect. Mr. Bryan’s idea is to encourage the mak- 4ng of scraps of paper out of treaties and established laws of nations in time of war. His attack upon the ad- More have been added to the list of defendants in the Annapolis inquiry. It can never be allowed to close until the entire affair is sifted to the bot- tom. One dealer declares that auto acci- dents do not help his business. It is impossible to recall where any of them ever results in any good to the par- ticipants. ‘With a one cent car line in Cleve- land and a set of proposed regulations in Hartford the jitneys are encounter- ing obstacles which might be- reason- ably expected. It may be as Van Ghell Geldemees- ter says that Europe is looking for peace, but this is suspiciously sudden after the date fixed by Kitchener for the opening of the war. Providence is working to improve the condition of its polluted river and anyone acquainted with it can under- stand the Importance of prevention work to avoid similar conditions. Two Crew Members Well Known Here—R. T. J. Higgins Re-elected Secretary Deutschn Verein—Reunion Ar- rangements for Commencement—Many to Take Honor Courses. New Haven, June 10—Of the 49 men who left New Haven last Sun- day for Gales Ferry where the crews are training for the boat race on June 25 there are two men in whom Nor- wich people will be interested. An- thony Morse, who is at present strok- ing the first varsity eight, spent five vears of his life at Norwich Town. While residing in Norwich Mr. Morse attended the Broadway Grammar school and Broad Street school. His preparation for Yale was recelved In ‘Washington where his family removed shortly after his graduation from the Broadway Grammar school. ~ Mr. Morse’s brother, R. C, Morse, of the class of 1905 S., graduated from the Norwich Free Academy in 1902. He rowed on the crew for three years, and_was captain of the crew of 1906. T. Parker Lathrop of the class of 1918 Yale, also accompained the squad. Mr. Lathrop graduated from the Nor- wich Free Academy last year. He has been rowing at number three on the secong freshman boat. Wednes- day morning he was changed to bow on’ the substitute four oar boat. This crew is composed of both freshman and varsity oarsmen. At a recent meeting of the Deutsch- er Verein R. T. J. Higgins was re- elected secretary for the coming col- | lege vear. This organization which | was originally formed five years ago was founded for the advancement of the German language among the un- dergradnates, but during the past year the club has interested itself in the various phases of the European war as | regarded the Germanic interests. In the past few months the organization has had many participants of the pres- ent struggle as guests of the club. As a result of negotiations now in progress it is quite probable that the Yale Cooperative store will be moved during the summer to a new building | to be erected on High street In the| rear of the premises now occupied by the Yale Publishing association and the Yale University Press. In such case the Cooperative quarters now located in Faverweather hall will be altered | so as to provide an additional recita- | tion room for the college, and an ex- | tra office for the Bureau of Appoint- | ments. The plang for the new store call for a building runni through from High street to the gymnastic lot, | and with entrances both from the gymnasium and from High street. The number of men who have elect- | ed to take the honors courses, which | were open to all the members of the | sophomore class only, has been very large considering that this is the first vear they have been offered, In the| class of 1917 there were approximately | 55 men who were eligible to take these | courses next vear. Of these 27 have| chosen the honors courses. The plan | is a new oney and is intended to serve | as an incentive to a higher scholar- | ship standard. | The typewriting bureau in its re- port of the work done since its estab- lishment in February announces that | the enterprise has far exceeded the | most optimistic predictions which has | been made for it. ‘The report shows | that in the past four mounths, 21} students have turned out a_total of 230 pleces and have earned in the neighborhood of $430. This business has been, created in a previously un- covered field of undergraduate em- ployment, and the results show that it will be a permanent institution in the university. The chief difficulty which the bureau has had to solve is that of obtaining enough men who are competent to do satisfactory work, The typewriting bureau not only fur- nishes a renumerative activity during the college course, but is also a valu~ able asset in later life. Arrangements have now been com- pleted for the instruction in the new course in preparation for business to be offered next vear in the Sheffield Scientific school. The prospect is de- cidedly promising. Probably the two most important subjects to be studied in the course are Industrial Manage- ment and Commercial _Organization and Problems of Marketing. Under the name of scientific management a strenuous effort is now being made to reduce the work of managing indus- trial enterprises to something like an art with well established principles which may be learned and practiced This movement represents an _ im- provement in production comparable in its effects to the great mechanical in-~ ventions. During the past week the various committees of the Sheffield Christian association have handed in to the sec- retary their reports of the work of the past season. These reports show that the ciation has made material progress in every branch, besides add» ing several new departments to its field of activity. The men most inti- mately connected with the Sheffield association believ that an important turning point in its history has been passed. Of the two factors which serve as a basis for this optimistic impression, the first is the fact that the organization of the work has been developed into an efficient machine, due largely to the direction of the seneral secretary. The second factor is ‘the awakening of a keener interest in the things for which the assoclation stands among all Sheff men. For the eight meetings maintained during the year there has been an_ average at- tendance of 103. Two boys' clubs HoTEL LENOX LUXURY - have been supported by the associa- tion In addition to which considerable settlement work has been accomplish- ed by the students. A meeting of the general committee charged with reunion arrangements for commencement this year was held in New Haven last Friday evening. The committee decided to retain the general features of the parade of re- union classes to the baseball game on Tuesday afternoon and the general festival celebration on the old campus Tuesday evening, The younger classes will march from the campus to Yale Field and all reunion classes will then form on the old football field and march to the baseball field in order of thelr graduation. On Tuesday ev- ening the campus will be closed to all but Yale graduates and undergradu- ates, The celebration there will consist of fireworks and general singing. There will be no extended or formal programme events. Regular reunions will_be held this year by 12 classes in the college and 10 classes in the Sheffield Scientific school. The old- est class to hold a regular reunion in the class of 1865, which celebrates it's fiftieth anniversary. Particularly im- portant reunions are those of the 25 vear period held by the class of 1890 in the college and the Sheffield Scien- | tific school and the decennial reunions of the classes of 1905. The oldest class in the Sheffleld Scientific school re- turning for a regular reunion is the class of 1875 which will. celebrate its fortieth anniversary. This year, as last, the classes one year out of college will hold regular reunions. The com- plete list of classes returning for re- unions this June are: 1870, 1875, 1880, 1885, 1890, 1895, 1900, 1905, 1909, 1912, 1914; 1875 S, 1880 S, 1885 S, 1890 S, 1895'S, 1900 S, 1905 S, 1909 S, 1912 S, ang 1914 . THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Soclety “Lake Garda, the blue pearl of the southern Alps, set in a gilded frame of cliffs, borders one of the paths, that of the Adige valley, by which Italians are invading the Trentino. Lake Gar_ da crosses the Austrian frontier, cut- | ting well into Trentino in the direction of Riva, a city but a short distance back from its northern shore.” Thus begins today’s geographic study, pre- pared by the National Geographic so- clety at Washington, upon the new Austro-Italian war area. The state- ment continues: “Garda is Italy's largest lake, being some 189 square miles in area. It is 34 miles long and varies between 3 and 11 miles in Jbreadth. It is sur- passed in size only by Geneva and Constance of all the lakes in the Al pine region. The lake is very deep, measuring in parts nearly 2,000 feet. ‘The shore of Garda in the south are flat and low, sloping easily back from the water into a sunbaked coun- try. However, as the lake narrows toward the north, first Alpine hills and then higher spurs of the Alps fold in upon it, often spinning up in sheer walls from the water sheet. The small Austrian pgrt of the lake a nar- row, northernmost finger, is a break into the Tyrol heights. “All along the shores of Garda are idyllic villages, small, quiet commun ties of white dwellings, convents shel- tered by lemon and olive groves, and the ruins of old castles, rich in histor- ical associations. Also there are the mushroom growths of recent years, 'NORWICH BOLLETIN, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1915 BULLETIN'S SPECIAL YALE LETTER ROYA BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure No Lime Phosphate | OTHER VIEW POINTS The Boy Scouts of America move- ment is about the best thing that ever happened for the growing boy and Waterbury is fortunate to have such @ large and flourishing branch of the organization.—Waterbury American.

Its northernmost extremity is high in Tyrol, while its southern shore, at Peshiera, is 16 miles west of Ve- rona and 77 miles east of Milan. The chief tributary of the lake is the Sar_ ca from the glaciers of Adamello; its only_outlet is Mincio, a tributary of the Po “Many fashionable vacation resorts border Garda, one of the chief of which is Riva, near the northern shore, with its good hotels and many fine atten- tions to the comfort and whims of the tourist. ‘This little place boasts, moreover, interesting ruins and an al- most perfect climate. Gardone-Rivie- ra is the most fashionable resort around the lake, while Sirmione-on- the-promontory, with its ruins of Ro- man baths, its villa of Catullus, and its wonderful views, is the most fas- cinating.
