There wiil probably be no end to" the eriticism which Senator Chamberlain will get because of the charges whi he made asainst the war department There wiil be those whe will continue to maintain that they were made for ulterior purposes and to handicap the. government regardless of the need of bringing certain conditions to light] in order to secure an improvement. There are good reasons for bellev- ing the semator was actuated by the best, motives. He' recognized the need of obtaining the highest eficiemcy in every avenue of war aetivity. He saw the recessity of ovemcoming condi- tions which were prevailing and there can Fe no little question that he suc- ceeded in turning attention to some of the shertcomings by the subseqyent steps which have been taken. This i raflected in the report which has been made by an inspection offi- cer to the effect that the hospitai con- ditiens to which he referred did exist but that they have now been remedied end that those wiho were responsible may be punished. This of course means that results are being obtain=d that the repetition of like conditions will be guarded against and that the health of the soidiers will be looked after and protected as it should be. What Senator Chamberiain had to say regardinz certain traiming camps m berne good fruit. Attention has been given to his stateéments which have been substaptiated in that re- spect anq better conditions are going to resmit. It is evident therefore that some good bas resylted and more may come, and it is far better that it shonld be thus than to hide it under & bushel and permit it to continue, *Right is More Precious than Peace” —_— = THE AMERICAN FORCES. . it makes no difference where they are launched the attacks of the Ger- mans against the American forees! haye demonstrated that our boys are ready, that they are there for, busi- negs and that they havel given a good megount of themselves.

The envelope has a lining of thin paper |striped in light and dark gray. En- linings are decidedly smart now and lining is as carefully chosen for harmony’s sake as any expensive silk lining in a fur coat. The sheet of letter paper is larger than it used to be and is folded unevenly, one edge projecting half an inch bevond the other. Down this pro- jecting edge. which is on the under faver of the folded sheet, straggles the monogram, or the initials, cunningly designed to follow one another in a vertical line, EVEH‘{'DAY HOSE. 1t your hose are 1 cut the hem where it is stitched on the wrong side.

Muzh 1 The Prlhlbilicn Ani-ndnunt in Con- Mr. Bditor: The people of Connecti- cut are gradually awakepiry: to the fact that a prohibition ment - to the United States constitution has been proposed by the congress, and that, it is incumbent upon each and every voter in the state to express his attitude on that question There are practically ‘three choices of attitude: (1) Open opposition through comvic- tion, or from ill-considered prejudice oy iack of information; (2) evasion or Indifference, which would be in direet violation of; the elector's eath (Gen, Statutes, See. 4785) or (8) squars ad-~ vocacy of the measure, because state and national welfare demands it. There can be no question as to which choice is based on the trutk, When once the question is fairiy faced. Here are three {undamentals upen which the prohibition ikcause incon- testably vests: (1) No man can drink alcohol to a considerable desree with- out damage to hig entire bein; cause it is a physical poison as mod- ern sciende has shown. (2) The traffic in aleohol as a drink is Invariably of dnmaging éffect upon the social order. (3) Therefore that traffic is inimical to “the general welfare.” whieh the Dnited States constitution was cstab iished to promate. After more than fifty years of agi- tation throughout the count'y a grow- ing public opinion has les the eon- gress to propese . this amengment. There were_three possible ways of amendment. (Sea the 8. Censtinn- tion, Article V, Sec. 1.) .(1) The states could have asked for a natiora! con- stitutional convention, but they did not and never have done so. (2) The con- gress could have proposed ratification by conventions in the statss; hut it did not, and never bas done so. (3) The congress has proposed the amendment for ratification by the legislaturcs of three-féurths of the statas: this is the preposition now pending. might infer. from all -the exci‘ement in certain quarters, that the method inow propesed is revélutionary: but on jthe contrary the conzress has never, {since the United- States Constitutio: was adopted, proposed amendments any other than the lagislative methed.
