One of the grew. croblems in con- nection with such «n event as the Yale-Harvard@ football contest is that of transportation. A large propertion of the attendants are from other cit- ies, and while there are many who gof by auto and others by trolley, there is still a good sized army dependent up- on the railroad to get to New Haven Percy. Then he went on to stare in precise, calm syliables that tpis time of year lifted one out of one’s self in- to an atmosphere of kigh=r things, did it not? Then he simply was wrapped up in his work, so he Jid not mind being somewhat of a stranger in Chi- cago. He devoted ali his thought and aspirations to his work—and when 1 dutifully inquired his line he said at present he was keeping books, but that this was only temporasy.

Such is to be recognized as being in ac- cord with the action which is taken in other cities because of the recognizea benefit to a city of shaded streets and the added value which is given to property by such improvement. There is a certain number of trees which have to be removed each year for various reasons. Sometimes they are decayed to the point where they are dangerous to public travel. Again there are instances where they inter- fere so seriously with public improve- ment that some sacrifice has to be made, and it is well known that there are pests and diseases which unless they receive the proper attention and remedy soon sap the life of the trees and their removal then follows in the natural course of events. Other communities have organiza- tiong, or commisgions which deal with and home again during the hours im- medlately preceding and following the game. ‘The New Haven road figures that it handled - over 66,000 people last Sat- urday, a number not any larger than two years ago, because a great many went early and stayed over to avoid that very crowd, but the record shows that they were moved with despatch, comfort and safety. Attention was given to full accommodations and in- y this resulted, except in the the first few trains on the re- turn where the eagerness to get away led many to disregard their own wel- fare and insist upon crowding the cars beyond seating capacity, but what stands out as the most noticeable is the fact that this great crowd was transported without fatality or acci- dent. The system was of course properly attuned to the handling of special trains upon that day, in 2d- dition to the regular business and the excellent manner in which it was done entitles it to the full credit of the ac- complishment. It is of course only what ought to be expected but it gives evidence of the fact that the respon- sibility involved in such a task is not slight and that it is fully assumed. Sonde e s THE ASSAULT ON ST. MIHIEL. That the allies are determined not to concentrate their efforts at one point and only one, is indicated by the assault which was made upon the German salient at St. Mihiel. This point on the Meuse river bas been held since early in the war. It has been the cause of much embarrassment to the French because it has prevented the use of that river for the shipment of supplies, but try as they would the allies were not able to dislodge the enemy therefrom. ‘Whether their present effort will re,. sult in any more success than that which have been previously been made remains to be shown, but following the driving back of the Germans at Verdun this point to the east being made the object of an offensive, while new activity is being displayed about Arra8 Dbesides the concerted action which is going on for the possession of Bapatme and Peronne, means that the Teutons will be obliged to bring about a greater distribution of their troops than as if the only offensive in the west was directed along the Somme. It is not to be supposed that the loss of St. Mihiel would greatly weaken the western front of the Teu- tons but like the failure at Verdun it “I concealed my hurt with a smile but I knew it wasn't his loneliness that appealed to you—it was the cut of his clothes and his swagger eye- glasseés and the way he draped him- self over railings and things!

R. VALENTINE WEBSTER, % Honorary Secretary. New York, Nov. 27, 1916. Disfranchisement in The South Mr. Editor: I notice that some question the statement that there is wilful disfranchisement in any part of our country. I think too much of our Flag to make any untrue statement tending to diminish its glory. This subject of disfranchisement in the Southland has been deeply con- sidered, aund here have been a great many books wrjtten about it. Our well furnished and excellently servéd library has a fine selection, among the best may be mentioned “The Southern South,” by Albert Bushnell Hart, Professor of History in Harvard Uni- wversity; surely an educator and scholar of his standing may be relied on. I wish to make two or three quotations from the above instructive book. “No idea is more futile than that you can teach an inferior race to observe laws by yourself breaking them; that you can put one-half the community out- side the law, while claiming American liberty for the other half. Though the negro race has little to urge in public, it feels the degredation and' the hurt. Violence solves no problems; it does not even postpone the evil day. The race problem must be solved by apply- ing to negroes the same kind of law and justice that the experience of the of the United Workers of Norwich, |Anglo-Saxon has found necessary for the principal of the Norw ich Free Academy, and, in case of a tie vote, the president of the of New Yor Norwich society to cast the deciding vote, to such resident of the town of Nor- wich, Conn, or to such educational in- stitution, religious body, or club, business enterprise, Incorporated or rot, town, which may, the above named committs the most to advance the located in the opinion of organization , whether in said have done nterest or the good name or welfare of the city or town of Norwich, or its people, in its own protection.” p. 366. “Since 1885 there has not been any genuine Negro suffrage in any state of the South, in the sense that Negroes were assured that ther votcs could be cast and would be counted. The last rem- nant of a successful combination of Negro voters with a minority of the whites was in the North Carolina elec- tion of 1896.” page 377.

The part which they have played in this municipality is not to be overlooked and each and every effort that is made for their preservation and ,as well as the replacing of those removed where such is advisable, ought to receive general support. It is an excellent move in the right di- rection which the Guild has started. BALKING AT HIGH PRICES. ‘A movement which cannot help be- ing of much importance,- and one which will make a strong appeal to the people, is that which has been started in the state of New Yorl for lengthening of the battlc front and ac- tion of that kind would quickly de- termine which side is the better able to stand it.
