Just what the outcome is So- inz to be is impoesible to forecast. There is an opportunity for great changes and it is possible that what is being _done is for effect only and that it will not amount to so much after all. Time alone will tell. The fact, however, that Chancellor Bethmann Hollweg has résigned and at - the same time the threatened [resignation of the other members of the ministry indicates that not a little pressure has been brought to bear, and that, from the manner in which the kaiser has been sturdily support- ing the chancellor, who of course is only his mouthplece, cannot be in- terpreted as coming from him. Such being the case it must be looked upon as the result of the agitation which has been going on in that country for some time through the press and the members of the reichstag for a change in the empire's policy, and it is pos- sible that it can be taken to mean “that haviniz reached this critical stage, and knowing the sentiment of the peo- ple spurred on as they doubtless are by the unsettled conditions in Aus- tria and the overthrow which has taken place in Russia together with the sufferings and hardships which are accompanying the war, there is a determination to bring about certain reforms which will appease the de- mands even though they are not granted in full . The extension of suffrage which has been announced will satify to a certain extent but the failure of the subma- rine warfare to accomplish its ob- ject in the time promised. the inabil- ity of the army to make any headway against the enemy and the growing dissatisfaction which is making itself felt in Germany may indicate that these who are ursing the changes will not be satisfied with a little sop but feeling the effects of their power will insist upon still greateri changes. These are matters, however, which wiil be revealed in time and the reve- lation will be eagerly watched for whatever it may be. NOW FOR THE SHIPS. Throughout the. whole controversy which has existed between Chairman Denman of the shipping board and Major General Goethals who was call- ed to manage the emergency fleet cor- poration. it has been the apparent en- deaver of the president fo bring har- mony out of the chaotic conditions by separating the duties of the two 50 that there would be no conflict and so that the need of more ships could be supplied at the earliest possible mo- ment. ~ With first one of these gen- tlemen complaining to him and then the other, it was plain that conditions cduld not o on that way and have the ship building project amount to ahything. There was a conflict of Authority there which needed to be cleared away and with a recogniticn of that necessity President Wilson in- Aftability is an asset in-life and fortunate ~ indeed is the person to whom it Is natural. It has a warmth and attractiveness not Known o po- iiteness; and is the quality that makes a man a good mixer. It is in human contact that we get our thrilis of ex- perience; and affability makes the worst_of these contacts bearable and even profitable. As common and use- Iui as human <ontact is there are lots of people swelling with celf-esteem who do not know. how to make them except along special lines.

Ignorance one of the thirteen things every man should be thankful for, and yet half the people never wake up to the fact that it is often a convenience not 2 source of mortifica- tion. The fact that we ars ignorant of the faults and trials of neighbors and friends lends to our enjovment of life and our feelings of security. It is never less than a blessing to be i norant of everything which in any way would mar our comfort or con- tentment, unless.it is something which might imperil our defense and pro- tection.

Considering changes in the town:of Norwich_during the period from 1839 to 1999, William C. Gilmg in his his- tory of the quarter 1l celebra- tion, mentions that although the dif- ferent villages that compose Norwich are members of the sams body have many interests in commion, -t bave many that are diverse. Bean Hill far from Laurel Hill; Thamesvilie from Taftville. Even within the city limits, the rocky 1 of Jafl Hill—or Savin Hill, as it used 1o be calied, is a formidable barfier between the two important therough- fares, Broadway and Washington street, consequently public improve- ments that are urgently necded in o section, often concern another Secti so remotely that unanimity is well nigh impossible. * The dwellers in the center district, the farmers on the hill sides, the workers in the more remote manufac- turing viilages, while largely benefitted the advantages of tie city, have been reluctant to be incorporated with it. They bring to the city the products of their farms and mills, they deposit their money in the city banks, thelr children are in the Free Academy. their wives and daughters come to the city for the latest fashions, “the free- dom of the city” is theirs, its amuse- ments. its libraries, its churches. but bitherto they have opposed consilda- tion. As long azo as 1865, petitions for consolidation were presented to the General Assembly: but so persistent the “opposition from Greenevilie, Laurel Hill, Fast Great Plain, from ant Up-Town, that the measure failed.

In referri to the way Norwich secured a water supply, Mr. Gilman writes humorously: The difficulties hav jomietimes beset the people fon “when they have tried to 't together have been ilustrated by fin water problem, which, though it cannot be called a burning question, has kept the iown in hot water more - of the time for forty years. Mas been universally conceded that an adequate supply of pure and whole- some water is an imperative necéssity for every citizen of Norwich, his wife, his _children, his castle, and the stranger within his gates. Yet there have been seasons when one might ha said, that on the surrounding hilis there was “water everywhere, but not a drop to drink,” in the city. In 1859, the town was dependent for eater eupply on pricate wells. In the thickly settled districts were a few i public pumps, and some private res- ervoirs and aqueducts that yielded conslderable révenue to their owner: but the supply of water was always insufficient and the quaity was open to_suspicion, even before bacteria and microbes had been invented, to vex men'’s souls and bodiet Great was the need; yet, in 1864, after an amendment to the charter granted by the Legislature had been formally accepted by the citizens, and after contracts had been submitted for the construction of a reservoir at Fair- view and for street mains at a cos of $185,000, opposition to the proposed site was so great that a special city meeting was called to rescind the vote. The question was firally settied 1868, by the small majority of ninet. three votes in favor of water, and the water commissioners were authorized to proceed with the work Under their direction. a was constructed at Fairview. the Scotland and Canterbury about a mile from the Up-Town with a dam four hundred feet and thirty-five feet high. capacity of 350,000,000 gallons. In May, 1870, the suecessful com- pletion of the water works was cele- brated with great enthusiasm. No one could foretell at that time how great woud be the increase in the popula- tion of Norwich; etill less could any one estimate how enormous would be the increase in the consumption of water. Mr. Gilman makes referercé to later conditions of drought throughout New England, when Norwich euffered be- reservoir between roads; een long cause of scant water supply and the fact that as one way to remedy this need the dam at Fairview was raised in 1800, when discussions grew hot concerninz the comparative value of Pease Brook and Stony Brook, as permanent sources of suppiyv. As he notes: “The strange spectacle has been seen of Standard Oi: selling at a lower price per gallon than pure spring water! It is believed that the peril has now happily been averted. and that Norwich will never again suffer till all the streams run dry.” As one bond of union to join the separated and in some cases jealous sections of the town in common spirit Mr. Gilman mentions iroads, conveniences of which Norwich was wholly destitute in 1859, the date of the celebratian of her- tvo' hundreth anniversary. ‘A most interesting review of the be- 2innings of these he gives in his book: and what he tells thereof will form the subject of a later paper.

An _aviation =chool located in this city, one of the strongest fortresses in France and sharing with Brest the distinction of being the two leading bases of the French Navy, is about as far removed from ihe danger zone of German air raiders as it is possible to be and still remain on French soil. “Touw'on, with its exceptional har- bor, comprising five splendid basins, is situated on the Mediterranean. 42 miles by rail southeast of Marseilles and 10 miles southwest of Nice. The entrance to the bay, easily defended by torpedoes and girdled by forts and Patteries, is 1,300 feet wide. Three of the five basins are reserved for the use of the war ehips of the French Mediterranean fleet. which has Its headquarters here.

The famous en- gineer Vauban, under the direction of Louis XIV. greatly strengthened its military. works, and during the very year in which that military genius died broken hearted because many of the 160 fortresses which he had con- structed or rebuilt had been captured, Toulon, thanks to his labors, was able to withstand an attack from the allied fleets of Ensland and Holland and an army under Prince Eugene.
