When conditions exist which ought never to be tolerated the sensible thing to do is either to abolish them or to drive them to the wall by removing the cause for their existence. This is apparently what Fire Commissioner Adamson of New York has set out to do by the establishment of the New York firemen’s emergency fund which was suggested by the conditions which are made to prevail through the exist- ence of usurious money lenders who keep the nose of their patrons to the grindstore every moment they are within their reach. Through this fund made possible by a few patriotic citizens it is intended to provide a substitute for the money lenders in that such sums as the fire- rien of that city may need within moderation will be loaned to them at four per cent. and in that manmer a large number of the city employes will be freed from the grasp of the loan the municipal em- ployes especially susceptible to their m\perations. with the result, as the preparations alnst the situation that is developing at the other en of the Mediterranean, EDITORIAL NOTES, Lucky is the individual who is able to escape the grip of the grip.

BREWER cO NNECTICUT is full of banks of such improsing size that they inspire extreme respect in the observer's eves. The second largest in the state, it may be truly said, is that of which the subject of these stanzas is the head—the Norwich Savings, which has ample scads of yellow stuff, with no remote necessity for any brag or bluff. T HE aim of Arthur Brewer, among other worthy things, has been to capture many coins and clip their busy wings— which punpose he’s accomplished with commendable intent, with dividends which flow at a delectable per cent. from many Nor- wich industries which may not bear his name, but use his ample capital to help them play the game. IN‘ politics he shows the tallest kin& of nerve and pluck, and as the reader might surmise, a faithful run of luck. The candi- date by him proposed the voters wan't Tefect, but with a rare exception are delighted to elect. He tries to sound in evervthing the true progressive note, and gives his full and free consent to let the women vote. W’HEN motors were invented and were lauded for their speed, he didn’t hasten to forsake the tried and trusty steed, but let the other fellows fool with lame or crate the atmosphere with impolite remarks, balk: v sparks, and des untll he saw the modern car with cylinders in herds—and then he wrote upon his check some sixty-horsepower words. as above recited re- fers to the contract for supplies. Who is the contractor if not the one who pays the bills? If the town pays the biils, I venture that though the sup- plies have been furnished for the use of the schools, they have been fur- nished to the town. COUNTRY BOY. 1915. Norwich, Dec. 29, All Kinds of Weather Due. Mr. Editor: Hasn't December been about as I predicted? Any one come nearer? 1 don’t hardly think so, and when I predicted Sept. 22 that the winter winds would mostly be from scuth swerving to southeast and south- west, I didn't think it possible for | those winds to be so decidedly “pre- vailing winds” as has been the case. Since the equino 1 period in Sep- tember there has been days of such winds, in far 21 days, with wind in southern poin But enough of that. “Poor man's December” is behind us and we are about to enter upon one of the wildest Januarys ever known. Mild weather the first few days, turning about the 5th to very cold, zales, snow, turning to rain, heavy fogs, even thun- der and lightning may be looked for in January, 1916. 'Twill be a wild month in every sense of the word. The ter- rible changes from very warm to se- vere cold and as suddenly back again means much sickness unless great care is taken; more colds, influenza and la grippe in January, 1916, than in any one month in 30 years. The storm periods of Janvary are so running together that the whole month will be sloppy, muddy, windy, at times icy, but I don't see any great hopes of fllling ice. houses. The storms from Jan. 12 to 16 are very likely to be heavy snow, bur if it is snow. rain and floods will immediately follow. To those kind readers who have time after time written me such nice letters, I say thank you. I would like to predict cold, steady weather for January, but see nothing but a wild, disagreeable, sickly month. Keep your feet warm, head cool and always have a convenient supply of quinine, catnip and pennyroyal on hand to break up a sudden cold. De- lays in January, 1916, you will find very, very dangerous.
