The peoplé of this city have re- sponfed well in past yeass, since it was demonstrated that the movement was highly desirable mn a community of this charucter. They have recogs- nized the benefits which have been obtained. Théy have appreciated the fact that ths child@ren have been pro- vided a safe place t6 play and kept ofl the streets, and that they have-been under the direction of capable super- visors at these recreation grounds. The results in fact have made their appeal and it can Dbe expccted that there will be the saffte generous re- sponse this year for such an excellent cause as thers has becn in the past. In ordér to assist in obtaining the necessary funds for this work, a new plan has been adopted this year of coliecting and selling waste paper throngh the local branch of the Wo- man's League for National Service. Every household has a large amount of waste paper which Is Invariably thrown away, but which can be turn- ed to excellent uge in this direction. It commands a good price just now and with the proper cooperation on the part of the people a @ood sized sum should Dbe realized from this un- dertaking.

The voters of Norwich cannot fail to realize the importance of going to the poils today for the election of city officlals. It is one of the important duties in connection with municipal government. It is the time for each and every one to do his part towards placing in office those in whom there is confidence and those who by their cxperience or their records in the community have conviticed the élec- tors and taxpayers that it will be for the community’s interést to place in_charge of the city's business. The situation too frequently exists where there is criticism of the nomi- nees and later of those who are chosen to office, but this might to a-large de- zree be dispelled if each and cvery voter realized his responsibiity and made it a point to et to the caucus or to the polls and free his-mind by his vote as‘to what officials he desires and what kind of an administration he stands for instead of leaving it to someone aise to do it for Rim and then complain because his ideas are not met ‘There should bé a larze v city election, whether 't happens to be a year in which the mavyor is elected, or the year in which half of the mem- bers of the court of common couneil and other city officers are chosen, as| is the case this year. A decp and sin- cere interest in municip; pretty good idea of what community government is desired. The republicans have this year nom- inated well known and represcntative citizens and if the party vote is reg- istered there .can be no question as to what the results will be when the s are counted. EDITORIAL NOTES. Germany has been doing its best to insure’ the Russians of a failure of their new goveriment, afr it has not abandoned hope. Thare are two days this week which should Be well fixed in the minds of the people. Election day, today, and registration Qay, tomorrow.

For the purpese of determining what the advance in the cost of production ls, the Investigation was carried on in that direction, for the coal producers have of course been obliged to stand certain additional expenses, with the, result that it was found that this amounted to only about 65 cénts a ton over a year a: In otheér words, if the producers were going to charge. the buyer for the added cost of pro- Guction, and that only, bitumincus coal ought to be selling today for from $145 to $1.65 a ton at the mines. Such figures apply solely to the cost of production and selling at the mines. They do not refer to the transporta- tion problem, to the part which the middlemen and the speculators are playing in the game so that the con- sumer is forced to pay $10 a ton for goft coal, but they indicate that there js an unjust boosting of the price When the senate gets through with the war revenue bill, there will not be enoukh of it left for the house to recognize it as the measure which it voted for. The federai trade commission de- clared that there was no excuse for the high price of coal, but it doesn’t appear to have had any effect in bringing about a decrease. Good progress is being reported in the organization of piz clubs through- out the country. Even greater results can be expected after the open trolley car season opens with the attractive end seats.

Among the noveities in lingerie shown this season are three-piece sets, consisting of drawers, chemise and nightgown, all made of flowered silk (printed, not embroidered).

Crocheting sweat- ers in the new “teazle” wool, with collars and cuffs in angora wool, is another form of needlework for the porch that bids fair to be popular this season. Lace may be hemstitched to linen in the following way: Draw a thread about one-eighth of an inch from the edge of the linen and rofl a hem to the drawn thread. Then baste the lace in place on the roiled hem and pull the desired number of threads. The hemstitching proceésds in the usual way, the stitchés being taken through the rolied hem and lace.

Tt will require two yvards of 15 cent cheesecloth and two skeine of Dutch blue cotton floss. The sash curtain is made double with a two inch hem all around and a suf- ficient amount of matenial allowed at the top so that the curtains can be adjusted to any length of window. ‘With the floss are outlined up and down and across the bottom of the curtains smail insignai of the kitchen like a teacup, a steaming double botl- er, frying pan. mixing bowl, etc. The outlines for thesé small designs can be found in the advertisements in the back_of any woman's magazing and can be traced with carbon pap3r.

Women do not rest their feet and treat them to air baths as frequently as they should. After the bath slip on sandals, or, better still, rest them on a pillow for ha'f an hour. Ten minutes’ rest before retiring each night, after giving the feet their daily treatment, will often encourage drow- éiness and remove the last painful kink from the tired muscles. ‘When soap and water are employ- ed it is essential that the former per- fectly agrees with the ekin and this ablution should be permitted but once a day. When the skin is inclined to be too dry or oily soap should never be used, but prepared almond meal instead. This is sprinkled from the can directly to the cloth, which should be changed at least every other day and thoroughly rinsed and aired. IN YOUR GARDEN. You are sure to have a garden this summer if you never had one before. As far as possible every onme is obey- ing Uncle Sam’s advice regarding home gardening. Even if the time be full of anxiety the woman garderer does not fail to appreciate the value of being brave hearted and keepins cheerful for the sake of her health and the happiness of those about her. To ald her the shops are showing most attractive markers which she can stick in her garden patch and in her flower beds, if she has reserved just enough space for a few sweet peas, pansies or other posies. These markers are of wood and each has a hand painted head indicating the vew etable or flower it marks. For in- stance, the corn marker has an ear of corn used to trim a hat perched on top of a bright cheeked maiden. The bean marker has a top shapea like a bean, painted green and given an animated expression by the clever use of dots and dashes. For the four o'clock _there is a marker with a clock face. Black flgures and hands are painted on a white background.. The suggestion might induce the ambitious boy whittler to make some worth while things for his family. CONTRAST IN SHADES.

Mr. Eaitor: May I be permitted a brief space for the purpose of more fully $aforming many who afe no more familiar with the control and management *of certain departments of. our city affairs than 1 am, but which information is lezal public rec- ord and might have been wisely in- corporated in I'fother Gebrath’s letter to_the people. With reference to the water and gas and electrical department’s manage- ment, ho should have taken more pace to supplement the important fact which he must be familiar with, that the management and control of those departmeonts are absolute in their respective boards of commis- sioners, composed of a mixture of equal parts of political fajth, with power to choose their own officers, regulate their own salaries, seiect their own employes and do whatever else pertains to their rights and duties under the laws that created tne com- missfons. Neither the mayor nor the common council has more dictatorial power or authority over them than the provisional governor of Mexico, and it would seem urjust to attribute any neglizence or mismanagement to cither of them. With no @esive to discuss the merits or demerits of pres- ént or future salaries, will rest the matter for the public judge on election day. . F. PALMER. 1917, Norwich, June 4, Alderman Dolbeare’s Mistake. My, Editor: Aldérman Dolbeare’s at- tempt at justification of himself and his colitagues for their overdraft and for theit spending city moneys with- out having it re-appropriated by the city treasury becomes a fiasco. The only arzument which he makes in his own defense for this work is that a previous administration had done it, and he cited certain paragraphs showing where it had been asae. Now Mr. Gebrath comes forward and shows and cites cxactly and specifically where Mr. Dolbears is miswesen and where his investigations were at er- ror and his statement, according to Mr. Qebrath’ eéréfermca, is _untrue. Rather sad predicament for Mr. Dol- beare. What does that make ™Mr. Dolbeare ont? If Mr. Dolbeare and hie colleagues had piven more attestion to the strict performance of their duties and in accordance with the law instcad of sending around political circulars throuzh the mail in their efforts to justify theélr unpopular, expénsive and extravagant performances, and instead of their raising the water cashier® salary and other ‘officials and making life jobs for some who were already overpaid for the character of services rendered, and cutting down efficlent men for apparentiy politica] reasons, if they had given the attention to the city’s duties which they owe the pub- lic, we would not today be laboring under a 13 1-4 mill tax, the highest tax which the writér can ever remember in the history of the city of Norwich. OLD GU. ARD. Norwich, June 2, 1917, Appreciates Their Work. Mr. Bditor: I am ready to express my gratitudé and high appreciation to all the members of our city govern- ment, from the mayor down to the humblest official incumbena. It is a rare pleasure to feel that we have a ful] corps of homest, efl- cient, fafthful managers of our ci affairs. The old saying that every flock has a black sheep can now be justly questioned, for this flock have all proved to be colorless. It is true that they are a youns team. and in the prejudiced minds of some politi- cal critics have made some honest mis- takes which we can excuse and for- get. It is a typical American team, composed of honest, active, efficient, Ppusiness, taxpaying men, with no clouds shadowing their moral or bus- iness qualities. The city is safe in peace or in war under such a governmenr. The term “graft” has had no meaning during its regime, and with a continuance of another term of service by the hold- overs and their proposed associates, who are men of the same type and caliber, the term “graft” will be vague history. y have déne nobly so far with the problems they had to solve, espec- ially in street improvements, stde- walks and street traffic, and any change or infusion of an adverse ele- ment at this time in the coming elec- tion would be a serious calamity to the city at largé.
