Germany fully understands what this country is insisting upon in con- nection with the adjustment of the Lusitania case. It knows that it did wrong in sinking the vessel as it did, without giving consideration to the safety of those aboard and it is will- ing tb smooth over the situation by saving it is sorry, by paying an in- demnity for the American lives lost and by renewing the promise made following the Arabic case that such a course will not be pursued in the fu- ture. By not being willing to admit that it committed an illegal act because it is the government that is respon- ble for the tragedy and not the com- mander of the submarine, who simply followed directions, Germany hopes to dodge the vital point and by so doing reserve the right to repeat it should occasion require. It would simply mean then’ that military necessity would be advanced as sufficient rea- son for breaking its promise and be understood that all that was needed to square matters would be to pay for such neutral lives as might be lost. Dr. Zimtmerman, undersecretary of the German foreign office, warns that no attempt should be made to humil- iate Germany but the idea that any such thing is being attempted is pre- posterous. It was nearly a year ago that the Lusitania was torpedoed. That was within the rights of Ger- many but it should have first seen that those aboard were gotten to a place of safety and that it intention- ally failed to do, regardless of the fact that the people aboard that vessel were entirely with-~ in their rights and such rights should have been respected. It is not too much when this country insists that Germany admit the commission of an unlawful act and it should not be forced away from its position by any twist of words which appears to cover the same ground but fails to do so. DRIVING HIGH POWERED CARS. When the effort was made before the Massachusetts legislature to have a law passed which would prohibit women from driving high powered au- tomobiles, it is probable that the back- ers of that measure had in mind a few cases where women had been guilty of speeding or so endangering other users of the highway that it was felt advisable to enact a new law which would especially cover such cases, but it will be generally agreed that the proper action was taken when the proposed bill was defeated. In urging the passage of the bill it was claimed that a clear head is re- quired and with it a steady hand and cool judgment but it is to be remem- bered that that is as applicable to men as to women, and while there may be instances where women driv- ing high powered cars have figured in serious accidents it is no more than has occurred to men. It is seriously dqubted, however, whether the aver- Age woman auto driver will be found guiding a high powered car and those Who are not fitted temperamentally to handle such cars invariably have the eood judgment to fight shy of them. In view of the large number of ac- cidents which happen when men are the drivers such a law would be a gross injustice, and until such a curb could be placed upon the reckless and many times none too clear-headed men no such law ought to be con- templated, for it is believed that there are already enough laws to take care of the reckless, whether it is a man or a woman, if they are only enforced. Massachusetts has thrown out what would have been an unwise law. PRESIDENT WILSON'S TRIP. President 'Wilson has returned to Washington under the belief that his trip through the middle west has been a decided success, measured by his own means of observativn, but the re- ported fact that he is anxious to make another swing around the circle in an- other direction which has been dis- couraged by his close advisers pre- sents another aspect which cannot be ignored. Mr. 'Wilson has given evidence of his conversion concerring defense oreparations and It has been as de cided a flop upon that subject as he has made regarding other matters in which theories have been badly dent- ed by experience. His right about face at this time gives a much dif- forent impression than it would have had it taken place some timle ago ‘when it would have had less political significance. As the result of his tour the claim pediency, rather than from sincere conviction.” -——— SUGAR AND DYESTUFFS. ‘Word comes from Washington to the effect that the bill for the repeal of the free sugar clause of the Under- wood tariff is expected to be before the house this week and that it will be pressed to an early passage. This is prompted by the financial condi- tion which has resulted from the dem- ocratic policy of tariff for revenue only. The reduction on sugar has al- ready resulted in the annual loss of many million dollars and to have the commodity go on the free list as it is destined to unless some change is made in the law will mean the loss of about $40,000,000 more which nei- ther the administration nor the coun- try can stand. Such a bill as is expected has been promised for a long time and in view of the fact that the other reductions in the sugar tariff have not resulted to the benefit of the consumers it ought to provide an admirable oppor- tunity for opening up the entire ques- tion and fixing the tax on susar at a point where the country will get the benefit from it which is needed and not have the lowered rate result sole- ly to the operators’ advantage, Sugar is of course not the only thing on which there ought to be a readjustment of the tariff for the protection of American finances and industry. The much discussed ques- tion of giving that capital in this ccuntry which has already been put into the business of manufacturing dyestuffs and that which stands ready to be invested ought to be taken up ana properly disposed of. The oppor- tunity for a sensible adjustment of this situation is at hand and it should get fair treatment. FIGHTING INFANT MORTALITY. Recognition has long been given to the fact that a great opportunity ex- isted for doing effective work in checking infant mortality. The num- ber of deaths among children from a few months to a few years old is ex- tremely large and wherever a deter- mined effort has been made to attack the problem commendable results have been secured. Numerous movements have been started along educational lines and each has undoubtedly made a valua- ble contribution to the improved con- ditions, for improvement is to be found in the statistics which have been care- fully kept in the large centers throughout the country. Out of 26 of the largest cities of the country the records for the vear which have just been made public by the New York Milk committee show that in 19 of them there has been a numerical re- duction in the number of deaths by 3,284. Columbus, O., has the pleasing record of a 23 per cent. reduction while St. Louis reduced its infant mortality by 21 per cent. and Louis- ville, Ky, shows 19 per cent. less deaths among young children over the previous year. It is the claim of the New York committee that about one-half of the infant deaths occurring in that city are preventable and with such a fact disclosed it furnishes a field for oper- ations which ought never to be neg- lected and whatever progress is made to such an end must be looked upon as commendable. Despite the size of that city and its steady increase in population there were ‘but 545 more infant deaths the past year than in the one previous but that was the first time since 1909 that the year has not shown a substantiai reduction. Thus the fact that desired results have been secured in the past furrishes plenty of encouragement for the belief that it will be maintained in the future and certainly the fight is for a worthy cause. EDITORIAL NOTES. Reports from Arkansas make it evi- dent that you cannot haggle with a flood. Every drop in the temperature at this season of the year gives the ice- men renewed hope. The fact that Austria has decided not to coin iron money will delay the junk men in becoming millionaires. This is the time of year of course when people have the rigkt to point out the fact that blizzards are not un- known in March. In order to bring the Mexican sit- uation into greater prominence it is about time to recirculate the story of Villa’s death or capture. The man on the corner says The theory that it is more blessed to give than to receive ought never to be al- lowed to apply to the grip. The appearance of the baseball schedules and the arrangements for taking the squads south are the latest evidences that spring is at hand. The administration promised low- ered cost of living but it would be easter to find those who have experi- enced the higher cost of being sick. Tnasmuch as Austrian church bells are being melted up for ammunition, it is easy to beliove the stories about bursting shells making the vflkln ring. The wave of incendiarism in Can~ ada is likely to have much the same effect upon the recruiting offices in the Dominion as the alrship ralds preduce in England. \ UG Rumors of the resignation of Harl Kitchener from the British cabinet are again rife. They are getting to be as frequent o« the predicted dates for the ending of the war. Maryland’s legislature has a bill be-~ fore it supporting Jim Crow cars. In- asmuch as these cars had to be taken off 45 years ago because the whites insisted upon crowding into the res- ervation for the colored people it can- not be believed that civilization hnl vanced backward. e Mother sighed heavily as she read & note at breakfast Wednesday morn- ing. “Anything wrong?” inquired father. “This is an invitation from Har- riet' Sills to go out to Evanston for lunch to meet two of our old school friends from Ohio. The note has been delayed evidently. I'm sorry I must telephone that I can’t go.” “But why can't you, my dear?” “This is my morning at the voca- tional fiat, and I simply have to be there because Miss Patton goes to her ‘household economics lectures on my mornings there and takes her l\lnch downtown. “Who is Miss Patton?” asked fath- er, “She is the house-mother.” “Let me go for you, mother,” I sald. “Ever since your guild started that dear little flat for vocational training for young girls I've been anxious to have a part in it “You've shown wonderful self-re- straint, haven't you, Lucile?” asked father} with a grin. I le up a little face at father, and he laughed and asked what use- ful domestic art I was prepared to teach. “Buttonholes,” I answered. “Cousin Fannie has taught me to make button- holes to the queen's taste.” “There,” father turned to mother, triumphantly, “you see Lucile is equal to_the occasion.” Miss Patton was waiting impatient- 1y when I arrived at the flat. I did not get started so early as I had ex- pected, for 1 simply couldn’t leave home before I had finished a serial story that ended in a magazine which came in the morning mail. I ex- plained mother’s defection, and as- sured her I would take good care of the little girls, none of whom is more than 15 years old. “Very well, I'll be back at half past 1" she answered, and hurried off, fearing she would be late for her lec- ture. After a very few moments' trial T decided that it would be impossible to teach the children to make button- holes in one morning. They were ex- ceedingly awkward at it—that is, all except one, who, much to my surprise, could make them as well and faster than I could. I told her, laughipgly, that I would appoint her chief button- hole teacher, and that we would do something €lse. I was glad to stop, for it racks my nerves when pupils don't do exactly as I tell them. I am not phlegmatic enough for a teacher. “I'll tell you what we'll do,” I said. “I know you girls are all learning to cook, and each one of you shall make something for luncheon. All I require is that you have the meal ready at half past 12. This will be excellent practice in independent cooking and in_punctuality. ‘They put away their thimbles gayly, and after discussing the menu with me, they fled to the bright kitchen in a perfect glee, and I was glad that I had thought of such a pleasant plan. I resumed my magazine which, fort nately, 1 had brought, and the morn- ing passed speedily. At 12 T went out to the kitchen, and found that the scalloped salmon, stuffed baked pota- toes, fruit salad, whipped cream cake and lemon felly all promised to be such great successes that I thought it was a pity for no one else to enjoy the luncheon with me, and I called up David Robinson, asking him to run out in his machine. He accepted my invitation, and was captivated by the pretty little cooks and waltresses, and the _delectable spread they had prepared. He showed his appreciation at once by saying he wished he could do something for the little girls. “Yes; it would be lovely for them to have a treat,” I agreed, and I suggest- ed that it would be very nice to send them to the matinee, telling him that some of them had never been to the theater. “Just the thing,” he exclaimed, and he telephoned for seats, and I told the girls to get ready and go without do- ing up the work, so that they woul not miss any of the wonderful outing. Of course, they were wild with excite- ment, and David and I laughed heart- fly as we watched them troop away in a flutter of anticipation. “Now, it's us for a spin out into the country this fine afternoon to see a big colonial farmhouse I'm building,” THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Soclety “Tirno the ancient capital of Bulgaria, is the national pride of the Central Balkan Kingdom, where is epitomized all the history of the na- tion’s former greatness, the glories of its brief period of Balkan empire,” be- gins a primer on war geography just given out by the National Geographic Soclety at Washington. “Sofia, the modern capital, and all of the more important Bulgarian cities, are brand new. They are promises for the fu- ture, while Tirnova, perched on a mountain side, is an inspiration from the past. “There are cobuntless attractions in this remote little city for the arcraeol- agist and the student of history, and the beauty of its construction, a se- ries of terraces climbing a long-slop- ing hillside, is worth going far to see. It is laid out upon a cliff, 500 feet high, and each house overlooks the roofs of the neighbors down the street. The appearance of everything about the town is mediaeval, Oriental, and outworn: Tirnova was the refuge of tradition, the one haunt of the old- fashioned, which Bulgaria possessed before its acquisition of equally worn Macedonian cities as fruits of the war with Turkey in 1912. Elsewhere in the kingdom, the peasant folk have not been able to go ahead fast enough to suit them, to pull down the old and rebuild according to the standard, util- itarian, monotone tastes of the twen: tieth century West. “The one modern thing about the city is the rallroad; for the town is situated on the Yantra and Sofla- Varna line. It ies 124 miles northeast of Sofla, on the northern outskirts of the Balkan Mountains. There are a number of anclent churches In the city, and one that has been a church, 8 stable, a jail and a fortress, as varying fortunes swept over the mountainside.

LETTERS TC THE EDITOR Mr. Editer: Please let me ask just one question in your paper. Why was it tkat when the blizzard stopped Thursday noon and an obliging and much needed snow plow was run through the main streets and every nook and corner of both the old and new villages that same plow came up Gallup street as far as the home of the principal of the school and turned back instead of driving around to the Academy lane in front of Charles Kennedy’s, thus making paths for two women employed in the mill and three =chool children? LBEFT IN THE SNOW. Plainfield, Feb. 4, 1916. Stories of the War How East Prussia Has Suffered. Detailed estimates of what East Prussia has suffered by the war—with its two invasions by the Russians— have been compiled, and they surpass even the guesses that, earller, were thought to be wild and sensational and were discounted by even the Prussians themselves. In the briefest form; the East Prus- sian damage and loss is quoted from the German statistics as follows: Entirely or partly destroyed, 24 cities, 600 villages, 300 estates, 34,000 buildings; Plundered, 100,000 residenc- es; killed or serlously injured, 2,000 civilians; carried off to Russia, 10,700 persons; fugitives who had to leave home, 350,000 to 400,000; killed or car- ried off by Russians, 185,000 horses, 250,000 cattle, 200,000 hogs, 50,000 sheep, 10,0000 goats, 600,000 chickens, 50,000 geese. The investigators who have com- piled these statistics make it perfec ly clear that “only a portion of this damage may be laid directly to the Russians’ vandalism” and that a part of it is chargeable to the inevitable ravages of war. This is particularly true of that. poption of East Prussia which was the scene of the first in- vasion Pr ically all are agreed that tha Russian forces during the first inva- sion were soldierly and orderly and that most of the acts of violence, i plundering, murder and wilful arson and cestruction came in the second and longer invasion. The Russians, it is said, may on their first invasion have been confident of eventual success and may there- fore have desired to spare territory which they utlimately expected to an- nex. The new and relatively inex- perienced troops taking part in the second invasion may have been re- sponsible. Anger and disappointment at setbacks may have instilled the spirit of blind revenge. Or, lastly, the Russians may have thoght to instill fear into the German forces by their depredations and violence. The total damage caused, both by legitimate war losses and by devas- tation, the statisticiang estimate at $375,000,000. They place this as the lowest figure and believe that event- ually it will have to be revised upward. The $100,000,000 voted by the Prussian Diet for the relief of the province is melting away fast, and the work of rehabilitation has really oniy just be- gun. In addition to this sum, money in large quantities has been raised by varjous communities throughout Ger- many for corresponding East Prussian districts which is being eaten into work, insofar as buildings are concerned, can for the time being go ahead practically only in the more westerly portions of the province. In the parts along the border line it will probably be nee- essary to wait until after the war be- fore beginning a permanent work of this kind. The provinca has been divided into sixteen districts, presided over by as nany head architects with numerous assistants, who are striving to attain the proper combinatioa of taste and utility, and are meeting with every co- operation from the inhabitants. The latter have won the warm ap- proval of the authorities by their al- most universal wiilingness to proceed with the agricultural rehabilitation of the province, and its restocking with cattle, before they attack the prob- lem of permanent homes for them- selves. They may come later. To meet the Jack of farm animals wlth which to carry out this ag.icult- ural rehal lon, oxen have been Imtld and tured Russian horses for military uses, and horses \mflt for tnruut service, are being used.

It would never oc- cur to this newspaper, which has at least reasonable respect for the men- tality and intelligence of the Speaker, such uncomplimentary one who to make any allusion to him, but some reads his words may be, mean e%uzh to retort: “Pudd’nhead Healy. ford Post. There seems to be an opportunity still awaiting some genius to devise a public conveyance for the use of the trolley roads which will more nearly fill the need. No type of car, to be gure, will satisfactorily settle the problem of overcrowding. Only more frequent service or service better ad- justed to the state of travel will do that. But if the car designers had set out to devise a more uncomfort- able, unhandy and disagreeable con trivance than the type of trolley cars now in general use on the Connecticut lines, he would have a difficult task in our estimation—New Haven Un- ion. The original purpose of the inter- state commerce commission was to provide some sort of government con- trol of the country’s commerce. This control has become so complete that it has stified competition, put an end to individuality in railroad construc- tion and management, put a tax on thrift, provided jobs for thousands of more or less competent government employes and changed what was one of our greatest private enterprises, owned by millions of individual stockholders, to an industry that re- flects all of the evils and all of the incapacity of public ownership.-~New Haven Times-Leader. According to a table prepared by railroad men, the proposed eight hour demand is_to be made by omly 18 per cent of all the railroad workers. The rallroads point,out that this 18 per cent absorbs 28 per cent of the total raiiroad payroll, or some $39,000,- 000 out of a total of $1,381,000,000 paid to all employes. They have gained after award, the railroads claim, be- cause of thelr stronger bargaining power, while hundreds of thousands of other rallroad employes, such as station agents, machinists, shop-men, telegraphers, trackmen, etc, have plodded along without the cream gathered by the service men. That point is bound to be brought out strong as an argument against the demands_of the service men this spring.—Meriden Record. The city authorities might well g!ve critical attention to the suggestion made by President Greene Chamber of Comerce in regard the value of recreation centers and the need of the city doing its part in cre- ating and sustaining them, if their full value is to be secured for the children of the municipality. Through the generosity of citizens much has al- ready been done to make these play- grounds the means of keeping the children in the congested sections of the city out of the streets during play- time in the summer months. _But the support given to the project from pri- vate sources needs to be largely sup- plemented by the city in order that more of the recreation centers may be opened and that those already in ex- istence may be better equipped and made to serve the interests greater numbers of little ones.—Ansonia Sen. tinel It is rumored that the New Britain schols are to adopt the Binet test| - LODKING FOR WORK Everywhere men eomp work; even boys and girls in schoolor business find work tedious and irk- some, but it isn’t the work half so much as their own lack of physical strength | and health- | ‘pleasurable ; in business, in school or even house- | that makes it hard.

Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite unexpectedly. But you are prepared for every emer- gency if you keep a emall bottle of Sloan’s Liniment handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin—no rubbing required—it drives the pain away. It is really wonderful, Mervin H. Solster, Berkeley, Cal., writes: ‘“Last Saturday, after tramping around the Panama exposition with wet feet, I came home with my neck so stift that I couldn’t turn. I applied Sloan’s Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morning the stiffness had almost disappeared, four hours after the second application I was as good as new.” Coughs and Colds Are Dangerous.
