This makes it quite evident that preparations are being made to look after the egg market during the com- ing months when there will be a letup in the production of eges. With more cgzs being placed in cold storage by thousands of cases than were last vear steps are apparently being taken o overcome the shortage which was previously experienced, but that has from all indications has its effect up- on the raising of prices during the past few months.

The cold storage houses can be of excellent service to the con- sumer if they serve to carry the sur- plus of this season along to the time when the production lags and give the owners a fair profit, but it is well that a watch should be kept thereon and ean effort made to see that the product sold is good and the profit not exorbitant. EVERYONE SHOULD SWIM. The season is close at hand now when there are going to be thousands who will frequent the beaches, rivers and ponds every day to go bathing. It is a delightful practice, but the large number of drownings which are recorded throughout ths season, the first of which have already been re- ported, make it certain that every effort should be made to reduce this toll of human life to the lowest pos- sible number. Many of these untimely deaths come as the result of carelessness, be- cause the proper attention is not given to keeping within the limits of. safety, because there is the disposi- tion among others to take chances and a refusal of others to decline a dare. Rut there could be many lives saved if there was an effort made on the part of everyone to learn to swim. Swimming is an exhilarating sport. It is not difficult to master. Tt re- quires the devoting of attention to the few principles until the idea of keeping afloat in the water can be fully grasped, but everyome who makes a practice of going into the water ought to know how to take care of himself or herseif. There is no telling when an emergency will arise which will make a knowledge of swimming of the utmost value, and when one is playing, bathing or doing stunts in the water he ought to bs in full control of himself as much as if he was on land. One might as weil try to fly without knowing anything about the art as to attempt to go out into the water beyond his depth with- out knowing how to swim. The fact that a person can swim does not mean that he will not lose his life by drowning. Some of the best swimmers have encountered con- ditions which they were unable to overcome, but it is nevertheless a provision in behalf of self protection which ought to. recelve the serious consideration of everyome who can- not swim. If there was a greater de- termination upon the part of those who cannot take care of themselves In the water to swim there would be a marked lessening of the hundreds of wownings which take place every summer. NEWPORT’'S CONDITIONS. Not a little interest has been aroused by the statement which has been made by Secretary Daniels re- garding the vice conditions which he claims exist in Newport, and which arc therefore a great menace to the young recruits of the navy stationedl there in tralning quarters, and those which have been made in reply there- o by Newport and Rhode Island offi- clals. New York has just had some rove- lations regarding conditions which thorities have not exercised them- seives greatly, but concerning which many outside of the police circles could tell some harrowing tales. Th may be the case with Newpor:. Pos- sibly it needs to make a more d gent search on its own part to ur cover some of the dangers which ex- ist there for the protection of the na- val recruits as well as for its own en- lightenment. In refuting the claim of the secretary of the navy. one at least of the Rhode Island officials has claimed that Newport no worse than other places, but that is not sufficient to give it a clean bill of heaitn and morality. If it is half as bad as some piaces it is time that if was ziven the sort of a clean-up that Secretary Daniels is calling for. Tt is no credit to a community to tol- erate conditions which are demoral- izing. Apparently the navy department is in possession of facts upon which the report was based and it might not be amiss for Newport to get in touch with those facts before disposing of the accusation one way or the other. It is all right to expect that the younsg mon will exercise some self control, but even if they do not that is no es cuse for permitting a cesspool of vice to exist, whether it is in Newport or any other place. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: If this country goes dry a lot of maginary grievances will die for lack of® nurs ing. It the baseball players are drafted into the army they will have an op- portunity to specialize in hard, short drives. Nick Romanoff of ‘Russia has re- tained his right to vote at elections. Wonder if he will cast his ballot for himself? The hot-enough-for-you? season has arrived just as it was confidently be- lieved that it would, considering past experiences. . Régardless of the action of the sub- marines in sinking two United States tankers they haven't succeeded in pouring oil on the troubled waters. With Constantine in Switzerland, and probably headed for Berlin, the allies well understand that he is fast approaching the company which he has long been trying to get into. The part which the Canadians are playing in the war is by no means small. When they are called upon to gain a point they invariably accom- plish it regardless of the #acrifice. There is no greater satisfaction, as long as you cannot go yourself, to know that you have made a contri- bution to the Red Cross that will be used to help those in the army going to France The suffragists in Washington ought to be informed, if they do not realize it, that théy are doing more harm than good to thelr cause by the tac- tics they are following. They are dis- gusting friends as well as opponents. The quicker congress can get the food control bill onto the statute books and gives its attention to the other pressing matters, including the straightening out of the coal tangle, the quicker the people will feel a re- lief in the living cost. / ‘“I've got to meet my wife,” said the man from Woodlawn. “She wants me to see a dress she's picked out and doesn’t know whether to buy.” “O, my poor friend!” the Hyde Park man cried in trembling emotion. ‘Peace be with you—only it won't! Why will you start something you cannot _finish? Isn't the world just chock fuli of perennial troubles that you can grab among; and get plenty to occupy you for years without your deliberately. nosing around and man- ufacturing a special brand new one? Greae guns! 1 thought you had more discretion!” “You seem disturbed,” said the Woodlawn man. “It won't take ten minutes! “Ttl take all the rest of your life!” the Hyde Park man declared. “And your wife will ever after hold you in contempt _and _aversion! No man ever breathed who was able to give a woman advice on dress! When she begs vou for your opinion she doesn't want 1t! Not in the least! What she is looking for is to have you eap your hands to your brow in breath- less rapture and gurgle out that never in your life have you seen a more beautiful dress or one that was 5o eminently designed just for her. How, you inquire, was she fortunate enough to stumble upon this, the peer of all dresses, the pick of the season's of- ferings? You always knew she had good taste and judgment and this confirms it! Hurry and order it sent home before some one else sees it! Oh joy, that you are married to the woman who is to wear it and shine in it! “After you have got off a rhapsody on this order, your wife will think you are the smartest man who ever lived and be glad she married you, and you know when a man can get his wife to admit she is glad she married him, he has her hypnotized for fair.” ““But,” objected the Woodlawn man, ou act as if it wasen't possible for me reaily to like the dress she picks out!™ “It isn’t,” the Hyde Park man as- sured him. ‘Not if it is a brand new dress and a brand mew style and you are a_human man! You won't:like it at_ all, because it will be absolutely different from the dresses you Mhave got used to and feel comfortable with, and you will rear up on your hind feet and pay the air distractedly!e “‘For the love of Christmas ou will blurt out before you have had time to consider the matter sensibly and dig out vour suppy of tact, ‘Rose Isabel, you never are going to get that dress, are you? Why, it makes you look like a dill pickle Now that may be the most truthful truth that ever passed your lips, but the fact won't save vou! Rose Isabel will tell you that you don’t know what you are talking about and that you are a mean old thing. -The sales person will give you a Borgia glare and turn her back on you and whisper sooth- ing things in your wife's ear. And you will feel an outcast and a brute and an ignoramus. “If you timidly inquire why the dress has so many distracting dew- dads on the bias they tell you wearily that it is the style and you must have dewdads on the bias if you expect anybody who is anybody to speak to You and recognize that you belong to our set! It always ends with the dress being sent home, so you'll save time if you just tell your wife that anything she likes you'li like! . “Imogene had me trotting around to shops, too, once upon a time, until 1 came out of my trance and got the bandages off my head. We might pert at breakfast time in the most loverlike way and yet five minutes after 1 had met her at 11:30 at the shop where lurked the gown in Gues- tion, the gentlemanly floor manager would be running around in circles wondering where was the nearest boulevard policeman and the svelte sales persons would be hastily clam- bering the wal's to give us room! “Imogene would be inquiring bitter- ly why she ever married me when I so evidently didn’t have a grain of sense!

Clip This Lesson For Ready Reference The cold pack method of canning is so simple and the instructions so eas- ily followed that the women of the country are taking up the work by the thousands, says today's bulletin from the National Emergency Food Garden Commission of Washington, which is co-operating with this paper in a na- tion wide campaign for conserving the food of the country. The canning primer and one on dryi free any reader of thi writes to the commission at 210 Mary- land building, Washington, D. C. In the cold pack method the steps to be taken follow: 1—Seiect ts. If po; day they are picked. prepare them. 2—Have ready, on the stove, a can or pail of boiling water. b paper who sound vegetables and ble can them the same Wash, clean and —for dipping and blanching them in boiling water. 4—Put them whole water. After the water begins to bof {begin to count the blanching time. 5—The blanching time varies from one to twenty rpinutes, rding to the vegetable Or fruit. When the blanching is complete remove the veg- etables or fruits from the boiling water and punge them a number of water before filling them, for the rea- son that®in the cold-pack process both the insides of containess, an dthe con- tents are sterilizel. The jacs should be heated before the cod product is put in them Pack the product into the con- tainers, leaving about a quarter of an inch of space a: the top. 8—With vegetables add one level tea- spoon of salt to each quart container and fill with boiling water. With fruits use syrups. 9—With glass jars always use a new rubber. Test the rubber by stretch- ing or turning inside out. Fit on the rubber and put the lid in place. If the container has a screw up as hard as possible, but use only the thumb and little finger in tightening it. This makes it possible for steam avnerated within to escape and prevents break- age. If a giass top jar is used, snap the top ball only, leaving the lower ball loose during sterilization. Tin cans should be completely sealed. 10—Place the filled and capped con- tainers on the rack in the sterilizer. If the homemade or commerciai hot water bath outfit is used, some au- thorities ingist that enough water should be in the boiler to come at least one inch above the tops of the containers, and that the water, in boil- ing out should never be allowed to drop to the level of these tops. Be- £in to count processing time when the water begins to boil. ¥1—At the end of the sterilizing period remove the containers from the sterilizer. Fasten covers on tightly at once, tip each gontainer over to test for leakage, and store. Be sure that no draft is aliowed to blow on giass jars as it may cause breaking. 12—1If jars are to be stored where there is strong light wrap them in paper, perferably brown, as-light will fade the color of products canned in glass jars, and sometimes deteriorate the food value. \ LETTERS TO THE EDITOR What Is Necessary For a World Peace. Mr. Editor: What would be the outcome of a German invasion, should the most ruthless, and heartless, fiend- ish murderer of women and children of modern times, attempt to invade our shores? There are those in secret sympathy with Germany, who slam this ques- tion in our faces, at every possible oc- casien. We also have people of so little in- telligence, with small, narrow and non- thinking minds, who would consider will be sent | 3—Pace the vegstables or fruits in | cheese-cloth, or in some other porous receptacle—a wire basket is excellent A= | into the boiling es into cold water. to harden the pulp, and check the flow of coloring matter. Do not allow to stand in cold | | water. 6—The containers should be thor- oughly clean. It is not necessary to sterilize them in stream or boiling such an act, on the part of the ruth- less kaiser a God send. Is it possible that we have those, so ignorant, as to think, should an inva- sion be possible, that their beloved kaiser or his inhuman wolves would interest themselves so much as to see that their people or their property came to no harm? Yet such is the idea of some of these poor, misguided mortais of German descent. Past events, since Germany deciared her ruthless walfare in Jan- uary, has convinced us that she is in- e of showing consideration for friend or foe, but, on the con- delights in her inhuman meth- either 1y credit for her ability to | and defeat so long. \ihere is she entitled to t she Leen prepar:ng, and forward to this aay for 35 or 44 ?

Since my recent article appeared in The Bulletin it seems to me that we have those in our midst, who, were they to trace their ancestry back for perhaps 200 years or more, they would find that they descended from those who came to these shores as far back as 1620, and who originaily came from the British Isles. Yet, they so far for- get themselves, as to show animosicy |towards me, for the article, that 1 |caused to be printed in The Bulletin on the 22d. I wish to say further, that 1 write that, oniy of which I am irm- Iy convinced is right, and were the entire population of Norwich to re- sent that which flows from my pen, 1 would still stand firm in my opinion, as a free American citizen, who be. lieves in free though, so long as it is not detrimental to our government. As for those who dare show fear of the truth, I consider them entirely benesth my contempt, and unworthy to associ- ate with those who love freedom and the Stars and_Stripes. The flag, which stands for freedom, and liberty, the flag which waves over the land where all have the privilege of owning any property they may be able to accumulate, with the knowledze that no despotic ruler will deprive you of same, or denounce you as a tra:tor, and cause you to be thrown into prison simply because you have been saving in former years and prepared your- self for the time when you will be un- able to labor, should be revered. May these few lines show those of an unpatriotic spirit, their grave mis- take and cause them in future to look up to the Stars and Stripes with love and reverence, something to be hon- e ored and protected, but never to be looked down upon. Remember this when you see trampled in the dust, the Stars and Stripes, for which our forefathers fought and died bravely, that we and future generations might benefit through the shedding of their heart's blood, with not a thought as to wheta- er or no they might be here themsaivas to reap a little of the benefit for which they had suffered extreme and untold hardships to accomplish. May our flag be first, last and al- ways, and death to all traitors, CLIFFORD L. WILLIAMS Norwich, June 23, 1917. Limit In Husbands.

By Ellis Parker Butier of The Vigilan- tes. In this little villaze of Flushing, on Tong Island, nobody knew what Lib- erty bonds were, two weeks ago. To- day, June 1, the subscriptions are $595,650, and they are coming in at the rate of $30,000 a day. I am a mem- ber of the committee that is selling the bonds and the first 1 sqld were at a meeting of the Men's Club of the Congregational church. A man there came to me and sald “I want to buy five bonds, one for myself, one for my wife. and one for each of my three children.” T thought that was fine. Since then dozens of men—and women —have said to us: “I can't buy many bonds, but I do want to buz one for each of my children.” They buy the $50 gr the $100 bonds, part, for the children. Except for one littie Jad who came several miles to buy a bond of us, a boy of fourteen, who wished to use his savings to help Uncle Sam. I think this buving bonds for the children is the finest phase of the bond sellings. When Moses proclaimed “Honor thv father and thy mother/” he touched the ten- der foundation of family life. We live such a short space, we are 8o soon forgotten, we old parents do so crave that our children shall honor us and our memories.

During the fisc ear now closing the government receipts from taxes on liquor and tobacco have been larger than ever before and so it is presum- ed that the consumption was greater, Evidently .war economy and organized efforts to promote thrift have not re- sulted in any decrease in expenditures for these indulgences. But, mor striking is the demonstration th; state-wide prohibition in many ccm- monwealths has not reduced the total output or consumption of intoxicants in the country. However, if the war goes on for many months as _ now seems probable, the liguor traffic is sure to be curtailed as it has been in France and England.
