BOYS' SHEEP CLUBS. In conmection with the demarid for ralsed In this country, there is always pointed out no matter where the mat- ter is brousht up that it is unprofita- ble and cannot be done because of the sheep-Killing dogs. . That ought to be casily and quickly disposed of by a united effort to kill the dogs that slaughter the sheep, even if it becomes necessary to offer a bounty for the elimination of such a menace. But there is an excellent opportunity at the same time to stimulate an In- terest among the boys in the raising of sheep. It wasn't so long ago that dia so want to give most of them faces! A woman's face means much to her!

From first reports there appear to be many details missing as to just what happened in the case of the American steamship Algonquin which was sunk by a German submarine early in the morning of Monday. From ail indi- cations there must have been some warning given to the vessel since it was fired upon and nor torpedoed and " its crew was able to get away in safety, though they were denled any | ala subsequently by the commander [ ot the underwater boat. This is fur- '# " ther indicated by the fact that the de- . struction of the ship and its carso {3 was effected by bombs which necessi- | tated a visit thereto by those from the subsea boat. There is thus an oppor- * tunity to make some distinction be- tween the method employed in the de- struction of a vessel which was tak- ing goods to an enemy port and that ‘Which has been used in sending a tor- pedo into such a ship without regard Tor the lives of those aboard. Unless it appears in the full report of the © affair, that ruthlessness which has characterized too many of the sink- ings was absent in the case of this American vessel. it is perfectly evident, however, that this steamship would not have been molested had it been in a position to have defended itself. Had it been ‘equipped with a defense gun, In ac- cordance with the orders which have _ been given to American shipping since " that boat sailed, it is highly probable | that it would have reached its destina- ‘tion, all of which calls for the hasten- fi"‘ of the work of providing American sailing through the barred zone with .the kind of protection that they need. |3 DO WE OWE ANYTHING? New interest has been aroused in gonnection with the appeal of Presi- dent Wilson for the ratification of the | Colomblan treaty. This matter has ‘bobbed up frequently during the past | several years. It has a certain amount " of sympathy in this country. It is (. conmstantly being kept to the front by the Colombian government, and It has been dragging along for too great a period already. It is a matter that ought to bo settled once and for all; and it should be settled right. ° © But it is upon that question that tho greatest uncertainty of mind ap- pears to exist. There are those who _ feel that this country owes Colombia mothing, that it has not been injured But greatly aided by the construction of the canal. There are others who feel that the “taking” of the canal lgnd _ was not the proper thing, and that ayhile we cught not to pay such an in- dempity os Colombla demands there to be some monetary considera- to smooth over the a%air but ut any apology. There are still who prefend to think that Co- ought i get all it asks even an expression of regret on the part government for its course, not a little attention is being en to the argument that Germany _ s making capital out of the injury g Colombia. still harbors and now s the time, and the ratification of the | treaty is the way, to meet it. must be recognized, however, that #his country cannot yield to any hold- geheme.

Jn ths same way, excellent results ought to be obtained from the orsani- zaticn of sheep clubs for boys. They can and will become proficient in that industry, as well as any other, if they are given the proper chance and en- couragement. FIGHTING THE DRUG EVIL. Much good has resulted from the legislation which has been enacted in many of the states and by the federal act known as the Harrison bill for the. curbing of the sale of narcotics. % has brought to light the tremendous business that has been going on in this direction and the demoralization of humanity which has been taking place as the result. But regardless of what has been done, the prosecutions which aré con- stantly being made and the investiga- tions which are going on show the necessity of more drastic efforts through legislation. It is therefore not surprising that In the state of Penn- sylvania a new drug bill has been in- troduced which calls for the imposi- tion of stiffer penalties for those who engage in such traffic lured on by the large profits which result therefrom. This bill prohibits the givens or re- ceiving of marcotics “except under the advice and direction and with the con- sent of a regularly practicing and duly licensed physician or dentist” It pro- vides supervision over sales by the health authorities and the penalty for its violation may be five years In prison or a fine of $5,000, and physi- clans cannot prescribe dope Wwith- out first giving the person to whom it is to be administered a physical ex- amination. There have been means found of getting around many of the laws which have been passed to shut off this trade. It may be possible regarding this law Dut it is necessary neverthe- less to keep fighting the traffic until it is finally checked and the menace to youth overcome. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: When one figures up the cost of getting even the total shows that it never pay: The spring drive in this country will e centered upon seed planting. Over in Europe it will continue to be shell planting. The reports show that the Germans are being pushed back on the western front but they are going much slower than they came. There are excellent promises that there will soon be more wars. There are the fly and mosquito to be destroy- ed this year as usual. There is many a baseball fan who has come to the ‘conclusion that it is never possible to pick out a pennant winner from the reports that come from the training camps. ‘With Congressman Sulloway’s death resulting from the cold which he con- tracted at the inauguration, there is furnished an additional reason for urging a change in the date. With the American merchantmen being told to fire on submarines on sight, it remains to be seen whether the subsea commanders ‘will look wpon it as a case of first come, first served. The American flag can do great things but when a mechanic uses it to wipe grease spots from a work bench, it is proper that he should receive tho maximum sentence. In view of the fact that he is re- tained as chairman of the foreign rela- tions committee, Senator Stone is ap- parently thought more of inside than outside of that body. A big French liner has been cleared from New York with guns mounted fore as well as aft. This ship has demonstrated that it is armed solely for defense and in view of the orders to American shipping this government vessel. trying to conceal itself from human ken! _Maybe it was her ear that poppéd out at my gaze like a wing. And if she had large feet she would be certain to wear white topped shoe: with Barnum in the old days, who sisted on wearing evening gowns at the opera with mere etraps over the shouldérs and cut down to her waist line in the back—well, there are sad sights in this old world that are bet- ter mot spoken of! Having all these aceumulated miseries to bear, you can see how hysterically I welcome even the name of a woman who has real eclaim to good looks! ““Well,” said the helpless listener, “believe me, I'm going to stick around! T'd hate to hear what yow'd say about me after I left!”"—Exchange. LETTERS TO The Way to The Cross. Mr. Editor: Daniel Webster once said that the greatest thought he ever entertained was that of his individual responsibility to God. ~ That is enough to solemnize the greatest mind. Let us remember, that, while we should love God with our whole heart, we should also love our neighbor as our- selves. The two greatest thoughts for the human mind are responsibility to God ana fellowmen. The condi- tions that exist today are a direct vi- olation of the Gospel of Love. While humankind in Europe staggers along with their cross of blood, humarity in America stumbles along bearing the cross of commiercial duplicity, & new definition of murde: However we may look at the situation, we mas be sure that we are a long way from the romised Jand of industrial content and happiness that surely is desired by all: a long way from the promised land that might be ours were it not that some devoted thing lies hidden in the temples of our prosperity: sc call- ed: some devoted thing that is as much a hindrance to our progress fo- ward makinz our country like Canaan's fair and pleasant land: as was that which Achan hid in his tent. We may well Sav today, “Why dost thou trouble us ” or, “We art thou that troubleth us?” The development of our modern civilization makes this a_complex question. No man; no set of men: with a good conscience can take the products of modern civiliza- tion without being in a measure sponsibla for the conditions which they are produced. The social conscience of the twentieth century says they cannot: and the social con- science of the twentieth century has Its source and abiding inspiration in the gospel of our Lord. Commer- clal duplicity, an instrument of rreed, has involved ‘many men in murder to- day in America, as truely as when the only weapons used were the bow and arrow ard tomahawk, many years ago. Conspiracies in restraint of eating are found on every hand, such as ade- quate food supply at a premium, manipulating the markets, - holding enormous tons of ed'bles and fuvel in storage, and exporting _provisions which the American people immediate- Iy require to forelgn conntries: greed has created a false famine in a land of plenty, thereby, brazenly defving the law of humanify. and the law of the Jand. Avaricious schemes bave neutralized the most prodigious op- portunity for general prosperity that the United States ever had. As wages advanced, basic nacessities wera advanced to absorb the difference in the pav envelope. Without charity or discretion, they loot the tenement and the laborer's pail. Governmental erop reports and investigations of others the continent over hurls back the lie that there have becn ruch national shortages as to justify current quo- tations. Another Tink in the chain is to charge all the trafc will hear. They exact illicit toil from every dom- icile. If they were Robin Hoods, de- predating _the well-to-do it would be |bad_enough, hut it appears poverty's penny is as precious to_thelr Shylock souls as Dives dollar. No_commodity chas escaped their usury. The marts of the land have been driven into a cor- ner, and now they have cornered the people. What power can smash this menace that is ‘poison to the very soul of the nation? Will the pl*fcring jof the dinner plate and the robbing of the coal bim continue? What has the worker, unable to subsist upon the maximum wage, to say? The em- plover, riready paving the most that his enterprise will stand, state and federal workars whose salaries are fix- §d by legislative enactments in oty ter times, now have little for funda- mental decencles; _professional fe harasse by unbearable bigger house- hold budgets, and on the other hand, put off by their debtors because they cannot settle with the butcher, baker, and candle-stick maker, tor and apothecary, old people limited _principals hoarded for inac- tive years, widows and spinisters, de- pendent upon minimum fixed incomes, and, last, but by no means :cast, the ‘grower forced to accept your ar- bitrary purchasing terms, or have his products go to waste, and the retail- er threatened by bankruptcy, because impossible exactions leave him with the slenderest of margins.

JAMES H. CUMMINGS. Norwich, March 10, 1917. Enlisting in the Navy. Mr. Editor: The large amount of re- cruits that Connecticut is furnishing these davs, for the United States navy ave of = hizh type of manhood, and give every indication of belng “heard from" iater on. In case war comes within the next few months, the training that these men arc now reeciving, even for such a short time, will be of the utmost value, not only to the ravy, but to themseives. The necessity of putting green men or war shipk, in the event of war, is a most unfortuate one, for life afloat is so radically different from that ashore, as to make a brand mew recruit mot only helpless, but, for a time, an act- uval hindrance to the working of the ship. We must, therefore, fill up the vancies now. The regular ages for enlistment, 17 to 30 vears, are being waived, by the navy department, in the case of exceptionally good men under 35. and also in the case of ex- tra_well developed boys 16 or over. The new law which provides for 100 men going from the ranks to Annap- olis, each vear, is bringing many high school hoys into the navy, for these vacancies are entirely competitive. and DLy this means any young man who has two vears or more nf high. school training, will be sent to Annapolis if he desires it. To be eligible for the examinations the man must be under 20 years of age, and have served at least one vear afloat. The hihest ranks in the navy, are thus within the reach of anybody who will work for them. Connecticut is represented, at the present time, In the crew of practical- 1y every ship that carrles the commis- slon pennant of the United States navy, whethe: it bs a gunboat pa- trolling the upper reaches of the Yang-Ste-Kiang, or a dreadnought “standing by” in the Caribbean. The name cf the state “Connecticut” was on the flag ship of the battlc fleet on its world-girdling cruise the name of the capitol, “Hartford,” is still proudly worn by the famous frigate which carried Farragut past ths fire of Fort Morgan, into Mobile bay. and into the proudest pages of his coun- try’s naval history.

Cairns, cromlechs, barrows and sepulchral urns, and Druidic temries or “henges,” are found in profusion, side by side with timeworn symbols of the Christian religion. Richard Edmonds, secretary for Cornwall to the Cambrian Archaeological Asosci- ation, published in 1862 an _excellent treatise on the antiquities of the dis- trict. “To his territory - in days remote came the rich Phenecian merchants to exchange their trinkets for tin; the Roman eagles, too, swooped down upon the warlike Cornish; the piratical Danes occassionally overran the lard; and it was here that the bluff Saxons overthrew the army of Howel, the last of the Cornish kings. Here aiso the Christian faith dawned upon England. Long before the proselytizing of St. Augustine and his monks the Cornish Britons had their church and the an- cient symbols of their religion may still be seen on the moor and by the ‘waysides. “Ten miles east of Panzance. the road leading to that haunt of old-time buccaneers disclosing at every step some sight of interest to the pedestri- an who passes “The First and Lass Inn in England: ‘the Tableman,’ a large granite block which - tradition says served as a dining table for the Saxon kings; the old Sennen church; a burial ground formerly used by the Qualers; the Druid circle, Boscawen- h-all Inn; Nancothan or Buryas bridge; and the beautifully wooded grounds of Trereife, the hill of which is capped by an an- cient cross. “A short walk east from Penzance brings one to Marazion, or Market- Jew, so called because the Jews once plied the tin trade there. South from here is St. Michael's Mount, the an- ciently renowned Iktfs described oy Diodorus Siculus. Writing of the tin trade as pursued forty or fifty years before the beginning of our era, Dio- dorus says: “These prepare the tin, working very skillfully in the earth ‘which produces it. Then, when they have cast it in the form of cubes they carry it_into a certain island adjoin- ing to Britaln ,and called Iktis. For during the recess of the tide the in- tervening space is left dry, and they carry over abundance of tin to this place in their carts. From thence the traders purchase the tin of the natives and_transport it into Gaul.” “Edamonds discovered a bronze fur- nace in Marazion, brought there by the Pheneclans and used in smelting tin. He says: ‘The period when Mount's Bay was first visited by the Phen cians is supposed to be more than three thousand vears ago for the tin so common in Palestine in the time of Moses, was not dug from that land, but imported by the Tyrians from some remote islands known only to themselvesfi respecting which Hero- dotus says, ‘It is nevertheless certain that our tin is brought from these ex- treme regions.’ These islands are not allowed to be the British Islands, of which the only part ever distinguished for the export of tin is Cornwall.’ About 1513 Marazion was pluridered burned by a body of armed men ‘who landed from a fleet of French war- ships. “Writing in 1908, W.

That there is work for the Rhode Island Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children is shown by the statistics presented at the society’s monthly meeting recently held. The number of children involved in the various cases was 282, and among the causes of the troubles of the minors were desertion by parents and intem- perance on the part of fathers or mothers. The number of orphans was small—only twenty-eight. It is Indeed regrettable that so many parents neg- lect their children ,but under teh con- ditions it is fortunate that the state has the services of an active organiza- tion which is doing something for the boys and the girls who are without proper home influences and surréund- ings.—Providence Bulletin, President Taft made a breach in that venerable instittution by trans- ferring all third class postmasterships to the civil service. Now it is an- nounced that President Wilson is to complete the reform by putting all other postmasters under civil service rules. The value of this reform is sure to be great and far-reaching. It will, or at least it should, insure that none but men of experience and ability will be placed in charge of postofiices, small It will improve the spirit of the service from top to bottom by holding out the hope of promotion for all faithful and capable subordinates. it will promote the efficiency of a vi- tally important department of govern- ment which has much_room for im- provement.—Meriden Record. The highest salaried Methodist preacher in America has resigned his big church in New York city to go in- to social work at about half his forms salary. This is worth mentioning because most people like to fling it into the faces of preachers that a bigger salary usually constitutes the “call’ which they heard to another field. And by the way—the salary of the average preacher iIn this country is 3700 a year—less than the average me- chanic receives. The preacher spends about 15 years in schools and ~ seminaries _getting ready for his job, besides investing some thousands of dollars in his work of preparation, whereas the mechanic begins to have an income the very first day that he's on the job.—Bridge- port Standard. Tobacco growers in some parts of the state are talking about their plight, and saying they will not grow tobacco this year.
