In view of what has been accom- plished by lane and airplane and the success that has been atfained by the dirigibl aere is ever: ason to 100k forward to the ssful outcome of the flight of the British dirigible R-34 which is now on the way to this country from East Fortune, Scotiand. This monstrous gas bag which has a capacity of 12,000,000 cubic feet and a length of 634 feet is the largest ma- kind in exisience and the to attempt the journey that is un- nere have been test flights a istained flight t was e firs vhich have made it evident thati negotiating the to cross the Atlan ary c ocean, and certainly as much faith is piaced in the undertaking as would have beer that of the C-5 which broke away from its moorings in Newfound- land and was lost at sea, after the ex- cellent showing that it made in its fiight to that point from Long Island. The big dirigible which is driven b same degree of progress in this line of air navization that the modern planes do and it is significant that the trial should come so soon after the other crossings. Whether it will be able to make the distance in less time than expected remains to be seen. It will have to combat the weather condi- ons experienced over the ocean and the time it makes will be determined largely by the course it is forced to take though no effort to make speed will be attempted. It will be a trip on which special attention will be de- voted to observations for use in the future and safety will by no means sacrificed for speed. Its arrival wever, call for a rousing re- ption whether the passage is made i fast or slow time since It will mark extraordinary progress in an- other branch of aviation. wil EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS.

Not only has the advisability of looking out for the returaing soldiers been recognized but thers has also been seen the need of makiag availa- ble for farming the zreat tracts unu<cd or waste lands of the count. Jhere are of course the exampn $- ciher countries in this respsct to encourage such undertakings even if there were no desire to provide for those among the returning troops who are interested in obtaining home- Bteads of their own. Australia and €anada have been setting a pace in this respect with good results to all concerned, and there is reason to be- lieve that there will be similar bene- fits from putting into force the rec- ommendations of Secretary Lane of the department of the interior. . But it is not a national matter alone 28 has been shown by the action of the State of California where the legisk ture recently provided for the com- plete protection of the entire Sacra- mento valley from flood and the re- demption of its entire acreage for distance | powerful motor marks much the| of where such ! banks that there has been in the past, which will' mean that two millien more acres will be available for cul- tivation. When a portion of the val- ley plaeed under cultivation last year produced crops to the value of $35,- 000,000 it can be appreciated what benefits are going to accrlie to that state. Such an example is going fo encourage many others and the favor- able propositior made to soldiers and sajlors will doubtless meet with a ready respense. And what is being done in California can be accomplish- ed in other states where they are waste lands waiting to receive the proper attention. THE NEW YORK WRECK. Another distressing railroad disaster has occurred in New York state where the lives of twelve persons were snuffed out and many more were injured. It was plainly not a case of failure on the part of the locomotive engineer or the flagman of the train ahead that caused the rear end col- lision. Both did their utmost to avoid the wreek and the former is ineluded in the list of dead, though his death {aid not oecur until he had time to ex- | plain that while he had fully tested |out his brakes some miles previous, it was Impossible to get them to work when the danger signals were ob served and it was consequently im possible to stop the train. This in- dicated that semething was radically wrong, that it was not the human fac- tor in connection with the operation of the Westerner or the trainman of the| express ahead who had failed in his duty. What the fault was will undoubt tedly be determined by the investiga- {tions that are underway but accord- [ing to the account of the wreck it seems most probable that the man whose body was fourd crushed be- !tween the tender and the first car, at which point the air line to the brakes| on the rest of the train was found shut off, was the cause of the col- lision. The chutting off of the air at that point fade it Impossible to use the emergeney brakes and there was not time enough in which to bring in- 1 { | to use the hand brakes on the coaches. | That the dead man had in some | way. possibly while climbing aboard for a ride in that location on the train shut off the air valve at that point seems probable, and in view of the j fact that he paid the full penalty | there is no reason to %elieve but he was unconscious of what he had dome and that the cause of this particular wreck must be classed as unavoidable under the circumstances, though more attention mayv be given in the future to protecting - such valves. NEW ENGLAND'S ATTRACTIONS. At this season of the year the ques- tion of vacations and where to go for an outing of a week or fortnight, or a stay of a month or two is uppermost in the minds of a large number of people. Fortunate indeed are the peo- ple of this part of the country in be- ing so located that the great varlety of desires in this respect can be fully satisfied, for it makes no difference whether it is a fishing trip, a stay in the far back country, a tramping jour- ney, an automobile tour, a trolley ex- cursion, an historic pilgrimage, a sail along the coast, a’ camping party, a stay in the mountains or a visit to lake or seaside resorts, all are within reach of pocketbook and time. The diversity of attractions in New England and for that matter our own state of Connecticut are such that we are inclined to overlook the delightful vacation ground that is at our very doors. The beauties and wonders of New England are so common that we are inclined to leave it to others to extol them and yet there is to be en- joved right here what many people think they must go to the other end of the country or even abroad to find. This is the time of the year when there is a grand rush into the New England states and whether it is at! the mountain and lake regions. the farm and thessuburban sections, the historic cities or the many shore rs- sorts thousands of peeple from cut- side will in the next few months be found gaining health and recreation in all sections from the Canadian border the to Long Island sound and alongz entire length of its most intarest: coastline, to <ay nothing of those : om within. It is the big season for all communities that cater to “tion business and none in has opened more promisingly. EDITORIAL NOTES. Even if they don’t continue to we: the daisy, there are many whose sym- pathies run that way. Hogs are said to have reached the highest price ever known, but that is in keeping with the name. From the reports that are being sent out about the former crown prince someone seems to be anxious to get him out of Holland. From the willingness of Bethmann- Hollweg to take the place of thefor- mer kaiser for trial, it looks very much as if he expected an acquittal. The man on the corner says: One actual case of reduction gives more comfort te the consumer than all the excuses offered for the robber prices. From every indication Norwich be- lieves that it can properly observe the nation’s bigthday and keep the cele- bration within safe and sane bounds.

She said Tilly was one of her dearest friends, if not her very dearest, and she hadn’t laid eyes on her for five vears since she got married and went west, and oh, what a perfectly gor- geous time they would have visitin; Tilly, she got further elaborated, was pretty, wore the stunningest clothes and really was the sweetest thing. “I needed some new neckties any- way, and if I was going to have 'a summer suit why not hurry it up? I certainly did not want Imogene to be ashamed of her husband while this re- splendent visitor was among us. Not that I was interested beyond taking a hosts concern in a guest. “Tilly certainly lived up to specifi- cations. She was .some looker and had a fetching smile and dinner passed I_guite outdid myself. Imogene kissed. Tilly goodnight most affectionately and sighed later, She said it was terrible the way Tilly had lost her looks and that somehow she seemed different.. She hated to say it, but didn’t Tilly strike me as awfuily— well not stupid, but bromidic? And she used to be such a wit! “Probably Tillie's eciipse was due to the man she had married, Imogene maundered. He could not be the right sort to bring Tille out, as it were like that—just gave up and let were. And then (oo, some waomen let they were i STORIES OF THE WAR Cleaned Up a Pest Hole.

Kight after that I heard her telling Tilly she was a dream in a certain gown. “What else could I say?” she de- manded, tartly, when I commented on the faet. Certainly, I wouid not have her make a guest unhappy.
