That it has plenty of men available for service of that character has been disclosed by the manner in which it has been sending them to the several fronts in Europe. Thus while the¢ Bulgarians appear to nhave struck the first, and certainly a tell- ing blow, there is yat to be reckoned the strength which Russia will throw into that fleld of operations to say nothing of the menace which the al- lied forces furnish on the Saloniki front. OUR FUTURE PROSPERITY. There are those in this country who are satisfled with our present state of prosperity. They look upon it as firmly established and certain to be continued under democratic policies. They fail to make allowance for the part which the war has played in speeding up American industry and lifting it from the slough of despond into which it had fallen during the first few months of free trade legis- lation. - Our need for trade has always increased foreign been recognized. don most ef their trade with nations which have depended upon their out- put, which condition will continue to ‘Bulgarian forces could by no means be ter to be hoping for something good than to be fearing something cvil may occur. In the days of the Savior the inquiry was. made: “Can anything g00d come out of Nazareth?” And the Lord showed man Truth itself could come from such a little, unpretentious, and perhaps disreputable place. It is not good for man to doubt; it is better for him to trust. This song of cheer- ful expectancy has in it more of power and more of ‘peace than the casual reader can find at a glance. It fits the human heart, it bids it look for- ward with faith, not back with re- gret, for “something happy is on the way, and God sends love to you.” It is designed to increase joy and to put Jjoy so firmly upon the pedestal of life that apprehension and distrust cannot get a foothold. The scul who makes this a daily song has a better hold upon life. - A _great Vienna psychologist has discovered that our night dreams are simply day-dreams that we have put out of our minds coming back in dis- guised forms. This lifts a great re- sponeibility from indigestible food, es- pecially grandmother’s mince pie, and a crowded condition of the .stcmach. But there are some things I cannot comprehend about Dr. Freud's philos- izes our day-dreams and furnishes them with attributes we cannot con- ceive they can possibly possess. And surely this cannot represent the psy- (Written Specially for The Bulletin.) than is the one of which we all know. As far back as 1818, the first coun- ty agricultural society was organized, continuing 'in operation for five or six vears, and holding its annual fair al- ternately, at Norwich and New Lon- don. October 30th, 1822, the fair was held at Norwich, on the Town Green. A book auction was connected with it, and there was an address by Mr. Mc- Curdy, of Lyme. This association declined, and after a few years became extinct. A new County Society was organ- ized April 12th, 1854, in the town hall -at Norwich. Rev. William Clift, of Stonington was chosen president, and Dr. D. F.-Gulliver was the choice for corresponding and recording secre- tary. ' This is the fair assocfation which has continued to our day. . The first fair was held at Norwich, in September, 1855. One of the big at- tractions was a balloon ascension, by M. Paulin, famed aeronaut, who re- mained an hour in the air. Then his big balloon floated away out of sight, coming down at South Kingston, R. L Such a hit did M. Paulin and his great gas-bag make, that he was en- gaged to give an ascension at the next the county farn the amu the people of Norwich and ents of vicinity according to history. In the main they comprised shooting at marks, horse racing, wrestling, running, leap- ing, ball playing, and the like. The annual Thanksgiving Day was always one of great hilarity, although Miss Caulkins tells us “its time-hon- ored essential characteristic was ' a sermon.” An indispensable feature was the barrel-bonfire, as kept up by the boys in the present generation. No jovial excursions during the. year was so common as sleighing parties. The snow season in ancient Norwich was expected to bring with it leisure and merriment. The sieights were broad merriment.. The sleighs were broad and roomy, we are told, with perpen- dicular sides and a sharp point, the driver usually standing erect. Plaid woolen coverlids performed the part later played by buffalo robes. The place of entertainment was from five to fifteen miles from home. Sev- eral sleighs were near together on the road, ‘“passing eacth other, ex- changing shouts and high hilarious greetings, or perchance bandying snowballs as they passed.” During = ante-Revolutionary times, the half-way houses between Norwich and New London—Raymond's, Brad- these were ail on a liberal and hospit- able scale.

THE TRAINING CAMPS. How strong an appeal is -made by the training.camps which have’ been atmosphere north of my garden. It was difficult to belleve my own eyes, but the size of the birds and the truly indicating white spots beneath ‘Lhc wings cleared all doubt from my mind. And besides the swallows and this pair of night hawks there was a flock of starlings in a nearby tree and a king- bird which keptsflying into space to share the Msects, those flecter and more gracefully flying birds were hunting. This assembly of birds over this area was an unusugl one, and it left no doubt in my mind that there was an unusual flight of appetizing in- sects to call them there. They were cratic administration has spent the past year, including the extraordinary appropriation of over six hundred mil- lions for preparedness. It is more than all the costs of religious and sec- ular education for the republic. It doesn’t seem possible in the face of such facts as these to become chesty over our purity. Our sins not only find us out but give us away because of our necessities. Colton is not so far from right when he says: To des- pise our own species is the price we must often pay for a knowledge of it.” Cherish the thought. “Who dares do all that becometh a man, and dares Wedding festivities were always i portant affairs in and about Norwich. The rejoicings were continted throughout the day and evening and not infrequentl were prolonged for two or three days. A newspaper has preserved the record of one such f tivity, and while it was not exactly in Norwich, it is probaple that, as Miss Caulking writes, “many of the town's upper class of fashion and distinction participated in tne festival” The account reads:—“A great wed- ding dance took place at New London at the house of Nathaniel Shaw, Esaq and carried it a’ It is disheartenin: wrens, house martins, birds, waxwings, nighthawks, lar] crested _flycatcher, vireo, chat, chestnut parygla and MM ter a dozen jays would take our scat- tered grain, and crows repeatedly tore down the suet tied near the back door ay in big chunks. to note the de- crease in many kinds of birds and the almost total extinction of a few species. The list is rather a long one:—house bluebirds, cat- vesper quail, wood pewees, yellow - throated sided prairie, ryland yellow-throat warblers, chewink, oven bird, orchard lichen, and a third from Long Point bridge wholly of bleached seaweed. Thisties silked out late here and the belated goldfinches’ nests in low scrub oaks heid addled eggs in winter. The spindle ospreys have grown _ wary, the quawks have gone to the Fishers Island rookeries, and it is not likely that snowy heron will again drop in to feed in the brackish pools at Land’s End. The growing summer colony at Fishers ‘Island has driven away the purple finches from the red cedars and the tree swallows. from the Nawyaus spiling.
