CARELESSNESS IN SENDING LET- TERS. = Every now and then some one is grieved over the fact that the postal service fails to deliver an important letter or parcel, and of course the fault is attributed to the postoffice de- partment. That branch of the gov- crament has its faults which may be disclosed in such a manner or in oth- ers, but the fact that all mail mdtter does not reach its destination is not its fault. There is no bdetter evidence of this than the report which shows that there were about eleven million letters and parcels which went to the dead letter office during the past year, and these letters were not of the least import- ance for they included money orders, drafts and checks, together with mon> ey running up to a total of two million and a quarter. It was possible for the postoffice de- partment through the dead letter of- fice to get many of these important letters back to the sender. There were many which were not worth paying any attention to and a large number which apparently reached their proper destination when they were delivered to the dead letter office, but it all goes to show the great amount of careless- ness which prevails among those who The :Bulletin has the Jargest circulation of any paper in Bastern Connecticut and from three to four times larger than that of any in Norwich.

This country gave itself the oppor- tunity to try out the merits of a fed eralized militia and it has had plenty of chances to understand what a mis- take it would be to rely upon such for first line defense work. The ex- periment has been a costly one but that is perhaps only one reason why it should. prove the more valuable les- son.

Billy Sunday is not only an evan- gelistic phenomenon, but a _system- atic, clear-sighted business man. He recognizes and sacrifices. He does not think the press sheuld do Mmieldl' nothing any more than the butcher or baker; ceives that space to the press always represents dollars ang cents. Mr. Sunday says he would not be a suc- cess but for the generous support of the press, and that the contribution of space by them at regular advertising rates during his Boston campaign would have cost two million in cash. Politicians and ministers are too fre- qunetly blind to what the press does their right rather than a generous and hearty gift. Billy Sunday seems to be a master of true values, and he doesn’t lror them, and regard its support as l ,k ignore his personal obligations, or ‘the debt of the cause to the press. The high compliment he pays to newspaper men is this: That in all his years of relationship to them he has never nown one to violate a confidence The clergymen who think the press misrepresent Mr. Sunday get mo co- operation or compliments from him. — Happiness is worth striving for. It is not as rare in this wicked world a3 most people think it is. As to what it is we do not agree.. Spurgeon said happiness consists of being perfectly satisfied with what we have got and with what we haven't got. If we had plenty to eat and no appetite for a particle of it happiness would not be possible under this definition. e are warned by Young to beware of at the world calls happiness; and doubt- less he knew excess of happiness is the lightning express towards misery: Perhaps Pope was as near right as any one when he wrote: “All the jovs of sense lile in three words: health, peace and competence.” The contem- plation of our blessings never leads us away from happiness; neither , does holding In abeyance all our fears. Happiness really grows out of learning to trust instead of distrusting: and in learning to count our' mercies und to forget our miseries. The way to strive for happiness is to become blind to pestering trifles, deaf to festering gos- sip and dead to all trouble got our own. Happiness is largely a state of mind—the chronic fnvalid is made happy by the consciousness that the ‘Everlasting arms are beneath as a dependable support. n’t it, that money has never yet bought a friend that was worth ‘the price? _Although it has bousht an automobile that didn’t prove to be a disaster. Money invested in husbands and wives seldom yields sat- isfactory dividends. Money can be about as bad a companion as anybody ever Had, as well as a most dependable one in time of trouble. Money is not as good to have as we think it is, un- Jess we are capable of making a good use of it. It was doubtless called “the root of all evil” because vice panders to it, while virtue has no price. Money was ' called Mammon because of its tendency to make us all slaves. With all its faults it is dangerous to dis- play contempt for it, for then the whole world questions your honesty. ‘What money makes of us depends upon how we use it If we hoard it, we are misers; if we waste it, we are fools: if we distribute it for the greatest good, we are philanthropists. It is queer, There are many people who think they cannot find time to read, and they are often too late when they awaken to a sense of their loss. It is good to be acquainted with books— books in keeping with one's tastes, one’s line of inquiry or one’s course of endeavor. Books may be compan- ionable or they may be of assistance in many ways. Ideas are said to be worth a dollar apiece, and a book without a single idea in it is not worth reading. I am inclined to believe that ideas have been wrested from books by the studious which were worth hundreds and perhaps thousands of dollars. The reading habit is the one means by which a person can keep intellectually up to date, or well equip- ped for life. It is reading that broad- ens the scope of the human mind and wakes up the imagination so that it sees inviting and populous realms be- yond the sunset. A little reading every day if it be only a single line may be & source of assurance and abiding delight in the end. If reading is a task for you at first, it may soon be- come a pleasure. 1f we realized that it is necessary to invent a good excuse before we do a mean act there would be quite a fall- ing off in meanness in this life. We “there is a spirit of resistance im- planted by the Deity in the breast of man, proportioned to the size of the wrongs he is destined to endure,” but man’s idea of proportion is wsually so out of proportion to the act resented that it doesn’t seem as if resentment could be safeguard to justice and the security of innocence.” as it has been declared to be.

It is not so easy to resist temptation along these lines as some others: but the consequences of excessive indulgencies are more se- rious than most people realize. | heard one woman assure another the other day that “from what folks say you can tell what they be.” It would be a glad day for many of us if this were only true, for the bunco- steerers and the stock sellers and the speculators and the gay deceivers would all be foiled if this were so. ‘There is nothing more deceptive than speech, nothing more dependabie than action, which is reputed to speak louder than words. More than haif the people say is inspired’ by what someone else has sald: and the greater part of talk is twaddle. At no point in life does mortal man oftener make mistakes or shame himself than in his talk—nothing makes him sorrier, for he is usually conscious he is bet- ter than his talk. How much gossip and tattling makes up_ conversation, and what a source are these for tears. We are all guilty of thinking too lit tle and talking too much—of being too extravagant with our tongues. If we were judged alone by our talk we should all be condemned. Sunday Morning Talk HAPPY, THOUGH PIOUS. They libel religion who make it a kill-joy. Piety and pleasure are not incompatible. The Psalmist was right when .he praised his Creator;- declar- ing: n thy presence is fulness of joy: at thy right hand are pleasures forevermore.” There may -have been long-faced, vinegar-spirited saints in the past; there are some now—but they need to be converted. Monastic ideals of severity, repres- sion and sombreness doubtless had place in rude ages of blood and iron. They represented but half the truth, however. They were false to the facts of Christianity when they assumed that God loves tears better than smiles, that gloom is holler than gladness. The religious man has all the sources of happiness open to anyone—and some very special ones of his own. He drinks at hidden perennial foun- tains. There are deeper springs of joy even than sound health, a prosper- ous business, or pleasurable hobbies. Happiness is a spiritual quality, with it residence in the inner life. It’s no in titles nor in rank: It's no in wealth like London bank, To purchase peace and rest. It's no in making muckle mair, It's no in books, its’ no in lear, To make us truly blest. If happiness hae not her seat And center in the breast We may be wise, or rich, or great, But never can be blest. We mortals _ experience several grades of joy. First, is the joy of ap- petite, the pleasure from physical sat- isfactions that man knows in common with the animals. It is the pleasure that waits on a good dinner and a sound digestion. Thousands live and move and have their being on this ground floor of happiness. There, again, is the joy of achie ment. The merchant enjoys his busi- ness; the lawver and the doctor enjoy their professional activities. There is a -satisfaction in accomplishing some- thing and getting ahead in the world. Average people, of the better sort, are happiest when they are at work. Then there is a joy beyond either of these and not a few choice souls in this world attain unto it. It is a joy of so high and fine a sort that we must find a new word for it and call it “blessedness.” It raises men above the common ilis that flesh is heir to, affords them strong armor against the slings of outrageous fortune. and teaches them songs in the night. " Religion may be held to offer us doubtful cheer, by those who have might be Joy, for instance, of a good conscience.

In this he wrote: A true American sent it izes the dignity of la- bor, and the that honor lies in toil. Ci l:urm date :‘o gu. lit.h.wd he u tl same syear, President Cleveland wrote, employing the country was quick to take up: proved themselves offensive psrdnnli and unscrupulous manipulators of local party management. Another oft-queted phrase comes from Cleveland’s first annual message, in December, 1885, “Labor is the cag- tal of our workingmen.” The en! sentence reads: We should also deal with the subject in such manner as to protect the interests of American la- ‘bor, which is the captital of our work- - |ingmen. ¥ Probably no phrase uttered by the same president attained the wild-fire popularity as did that of “innocuous idesuetude”, which was used in hi; message of 1st. 1836. The phrase occurs in_his expressiom: Aft- ier an existence of nearly twenty years of almost innocuous desuetude these laws are brought forth. In Cleveland’s veto of the Texas seed bill, Feb. 16th., 1887, he makes the strong assertion: Though the people support the Government, the Govern- ment should not support the people. Almost as frequently quoted as his innocuous desuetude phrase is that other pithy statement from his mes- sage of 1887: It is a condition which confronts us—not a theory. It was he.who gave to the national pension list the of “A roll of hon- or,” when, in_his veto of the Depend- ent Pension Bill, Feb. 1ith, i$87, he jwrote: I cannot believe that the vast peaceful army of Union soldiers who, having resumed their places in the ordinary avocations of life, cherish as sacred the memory of patriotic ser- vice, or who, having been disabled by the casualties of war, justly regard the present pension roll, on which appear their names, as a roll_of honor, desire at this time and in the present exig- ency to be confounded with those who, through such a bill as this, are willing to be objects of charity, and to gain a place upon the pension roll through alleged dependenc: er, in his veto of Mary Ann Dougherty’s pension, July 5th, 1888, he uses the same phrase, when he writes: 1 have considered the pension list of the Republic a roll of honor- Another strong and original expres- ion employed by President Cleveland was that of “The communism of cap- ital.” This creeps out in his annual message of 1888, when he says: Com- munism is a hafeful thing and a men- ace to peace and organied government. But the commission of combined wealth and capital, the outgrowth of overweening cupldity and selffishness which assiduously undermines the jus- tice and integrity of free institutions, is not less dangerous than the com munism of oppressed poverty and toil, which, exasperated by injustice and discontent, attacks with “wild disorder the citadel of misrule. In an interview in the Commercial Advertiser, 1889, occurs the phra: esty is party expediency. New York Sept. 19th, “Party hon- History records the fact that all of President Cleveland’s original and happy expressions did not win admir- ation, any more than did the Execu- tive who uttered them. Unwittingly he himself was the cause of a catch phrase which has won quite as lasting a piace in Amer- ican famed sayings as have any of hie own. Referring to.him at the national convention at Chicago, in 1884, the chairman, Edward Stuyvesant Brags. said: They love him, gentlemen, and they respect him, not only for himself. for his character, for his integrity and judgment and iron will, but they love him most for the enemies he has made. It was during the same campaign that Abram Stevens Hewitt uttered the aphorism, Unnecessary taxation is unjust ‘taxation. Four years later, William Cassius Goodle cleverly coined a name for the Republican stump-speakers, for hold- ing their audiences spellbound, when he sald, “Here comes another of the Spell-binders!” __While on this subject, it is interest- ing to recall that it was in a_speech made a_few miles north of Norwich, at the Fourth of July celebration in Woodstock, in 1889, that Cleveland's successor, 'President Benjamin Harri- son uttered a sentence which was pithy enough to be preserved in the list of famous sayings, and which_ is of interestjn the light of laiter-day events: “It is not in the power of any people upon earth to harm us, except our own people.” THE DICTAGRAPH. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ng of Cats. 5 some articles have appeared in The Bulletin favoring the licensing of cats. I would like to present, partially at least, the other side of the question in a few lines from a pamphlet by Mrs. Huntington Smith, president of the Animal Res- cue League, 51 Carver street, Boston, Mass., entitled, Should Cats Be Li- censed? Anyone interested can get a copy postpaid by sending two cents to the league, and they give s better idea than I can give in this letter. Mrs. Smith says: The question of li- censing cats was very thoroughly dis- cussed in the Massachusetts legiglature during the session of 1914 and when the bill finally came before the senate it was decided by a ty of two to one that the bill was not practical or wise. Objections that carried weight In the discussion were the difficulty and even the impossibility of enforcing a cat li- cense bill, the great expense it would be to the cities and towns, crueity to cats that would inevitably resuit if any attempt were made to carry out such a law; and the serious In- mice that would le against cats should be started. Another reasonable ob- jection that influence@ many people against the bill was the danger there is in putting collars on cats. If a dog is lost without his collar there is some chance that he may be recov- ered. It is a rule at most dog pounds to keep dogs at least twenty-four Some very pretty hours before they are killed. It would hardly be possible to make the arrangement for cats as the than the number of they would be so much more difficult to take care of. Cats are and always will be much more numerous than dogs and far more difficult to cateh. There would be great difficulty were a license Dill to pass; first in catching them and still more difficulty in try- ing to carry them to a ¢at pound. The Mrorf probability is that no cats would be kept and the stray cats would have to be killed on sight, a lowing no opportunity for the reco ery of a lost cat by its owner. It is quite probable that there would be more cats and kittens carried to the woods and a@ropped by those mistaken individuals who think that anything is better than death for animals and not feeling able or willing to pay a license they would carry their cats to the woods and ficlds and leave them. There are undoubtedly too many cats but the difficulties in the way of en- foreing a cat license law are 50 many and so serious that however great the need may be to lessen the number of cats this is not the way to do it. If the people want the number of cats lessened and if they have not already an Animal Rescue League in their city let them first organize one and then let them support such an organization generously enough to enable it to do good work. Let us not vote for a cat license bill because it would mean untold cruelty. D TO ANIMALS. 1917, A FRIE! Norwich, Feb, 1, l OTHER VIEW POINTS The fire which caused such serious loss in Hartford is said to have bsen of incendiary origin.
