Plainfield Aflame With Patriotism Parade and Addresses by Dis- Our country in the course of its his- tory has been called upon to face three periods of great crisis. The first was that which the fathers of the nation endured when they laid the founda- tlons of our free government. Theirs was the duty of bringing the nation into beink. of starting it upon its course; and well did they perform their part. As a result of their devotion. to the principle for which this nation stands, their children, and those who have followed them, cven down to our day have enjoved 'in prosperity and plenty the priceless heritaze of ord- ered liberty under a system of laws, not being made by kings, but by them- selves. And so we may well speak of the founders of the nation as the cre- ators of American liberty. Our second -great period of crisis came elghty years later, and the work which that period laid out for men to do was the preservation of those things which the fathers had brought into existence. Through four long years of strugele, of misery and blood- shed, they shaped their blood-stained course with a devotion and show of keroism which will win the admiration |of generations vet unborn. Their work was to preserve and keep burning brightly the flame of liberty which for more than three-quarters of a century had attracted toward this western continent the enraptured gaze of the world. The Third Crisis. Now we are at the threshold of a third crisis. In nearly all respects it is far more serious and.more_terrible than either of the others. We have been forced into the world war. After an exhibition of patience under insult and forbearance under injury such as no great nation has ever before shown in_history, we have entered this tre- mendous " struggle which for nearly three years has devastated Furope, and parts of Asta and Africa, and which has claimed its victims not only from those regions where the conflict rages, but from every corner of the earth.’ This is no war of our choosing. This is no war into which we have willingly gone. We could not stay out of it longer and be worthy to have a place in the family of na- tions. Not only has our dignity as a nation been flouted, and our ' rights trampled under foot, but even the lives of our peaceful people, not even ex- cepting our women and our babies, have been sacrificed. The oceans of the worid, which from time imme- morial have been the hishways of the nations, where all were free to come and go and carry on their peaceful pursuits in freedom from molestation, have by the decree of the German gov- crnment been transformed into a German lake where none may sail save by stealth and darkness. Our ships and our people, sailing on these ocean highways have been murdered without warning, and far from apolozy or rep- aration being offered we have been told to keep off and to stay at home. Primarily because of these things we are engaged In the world war: but in a larger and deeper sense because the attitude of Germany threatens the ex- istence of the very principle upon which this government rests, the right of a people to the peaceful pursuit of life and liberty under the protection of law. In the words of the president ‘we are in this war “to make the world safe for democracy.” That is the real meaning of the war. 1t is a strugsle between two conceptions of govern- ment; between that conception of gov- ernment which finds the seat of all authority in the so-called divine right of kings, and that other coneepticn which has had its brightest represen- tation for nearly a century and a half on this western continent. and which finds the source of authority in the free consent of the people themselves. It is a struggle worthy of the noblest effcrt of this free people who know the meaning and the worth of liberty and in earrying it to a successful issue we shall accomplish not only the preservation of freedom for ourselves, but we shall have won fts hlessings for the peoples of the world.

Wonderful Sight at Kitamaug -OF* chards—From 5,000 Trees Half Dozen Varieties, Crop of Ten to Fifteen Thousand Baskets Fore- caSted. Sy The late, cold spring, complained of by people in other lines, has just suited the peach growers. At the Kit- amaug orchards, of Frank W. Brown- ing the five thousand trees are now blooming, some of the earlier varleties being heavily covered in delicate pink blossoms. The later varieties will bloom during the week. As there was no early and prema- ture warm weather, the buds did not swell, wi the danger of being nipped by later frosts; consequently, now that warm weather has arrived the trees are in prime condition, although the blooming is fully three weeks late. ‘The orchards are reached by a sandy but fairly good automobile road past the witch hazel mill, on the Nor- wich-Montville road. The peach trees seen at first are not quite so fully out as are those at the rear of Mr. Brown- ing’s residence, but all are beautiful and give indications of a bumper yield. On _this estate, originally the Burr Bradford place, Mr. Browning retains about one hundred acres, having sold off a portion along the cove, where many attractive bungalows and sum- mer cottages have been erected, most- 1y by Norwich men. During his seven vears of ownership, Mr. Browning has set out these orchards, in some sections alternating the peach trees with apple trees mostly of the MacIntosh variety, the standard red apple for which the demand from city markets always ex- ceeds the supply. Certain localities throughout the orchards are also de- voted to the raising of practical early cabbage and potatoes. The peach trees now in full bloom are, in the main, the Greensbore, an early variety, ripening from August first. From that date, the other trees will be vielding their crops, up to about the middle of September. Those of the Carman variety will follow, late in August. Then the Belle of Georgia is due, between. August 25th and September 1st. In order will come the Eibertas, and it is to this standard variety that fully one-half the orchards is devoted. This is the first favorite for canning. Finally, late in August the Cham- pion, a fine eating peach, will be ready for picking. As a general thing, the early vari- eties are clingstone, the later ones freestone fruit. The later variety is the peach which splits readily for can- ning purposes. Every tree in his orchard has been sprayed twice already by Mr. Browning and his men; and this process must be repeated once again before the blos- Soms fall. Then there will be the “June drop,” by which the blossoms are thinned, after which, with no se- vere storms or other set-back, each tree ought to be ready in proper time fo yield from twao to five baskets of per- fect fruit. Mr. Browning Is convinced that the “eat-what-you-can and can - what- vou-can’t” admonition of the govern- ment is having its effect uobon the pub- ¥e mind. since, even at this early date, people are making reservations of fruit for Fall, and he forecasts more canning this season than has ever been dreamed of In this section. NOT NON-SECTARIAN. ssociation Seeking Popular Subscrip- tions Makes Untrue Claim, St. Patrick’s Clergymen Declare. From the pulpit of St Patrick’s church, Sunday, at the different masses, reference was made to the [campaign going on in Norwich to raise by popular subscription a fund for a building by an association calling it- self “non-sectarian.” The preachers asked the congregation to decide whether an organization which bars from its directors Catholics, Jews and one other denomination can fustly term itself ‘non-sectarian” In the proper sense. While each Cathollc is admittedly free to do as he pleases with his mon- ey, the priests advised each person to ponder these conditions and if he has five hundred or a thousand dollars to give away to consider that it might be as wisely donated to strictly Catholic organizations the avowed aim of which is to uplift and better morally, socially and mentally those in’their member- ship, which they would be better en- abled to do after receiving such con- tributions. While organizations barring Roman Catholics have a perfect right to se- cure subscriptions from non-Catholics, this is a case, the preachers said, when charity may well begin at home. No names were mentioned in the brief remarks to the three congrega- tions. INFANTRYMAN MARRIES. Lieut. R. S. Chamberlain Goes to His Homg Town for Bride. A New Britain despatch says: Lieut. Rodman S.
