WEEK ENDING JANUARY 17, 10,459 ADMIRAL SIMS' CHARGES. If ther= has been much interest aroused by the letter of Admriral Sims 10 the secretary of the navy regarding the injustiée in the way in which the naval decorations were about to be awarded, it will be greatly increased by the statement which has been made by the admiral to a sub-com- mitte of the senate naval affairs com- mittes during an investigation of the awards that it has underway, which matter by the way sinks into insignifi- tance compared Wwith the new charges made.

Seemingly it has taken a long time to realize the necessity of fighting bolshevism in this country, but even now while we are putting forth cer- tain efforts to decrease the menace here Elihu Root, former United States senater and former secretary of state, who was at the head of the mission sent to Russia by President Wiison declares that “Russia is the place for Americans to fight and de- stroy bolshevism.

Russia has Been a friend to this countfy, ‘but to- dey we are in default to Russia is the way he views the situation. In urging the protection of ourselves and the extension of help to Russia he believes that now is the time for the first steps in the reestablish- ment of trade relations, and it is in- teresting to mote in this connection that the supreme council has approved recommendations fo the effect that the embargo on seviet Russia be lift- ed to the extent of relieving interor populations by giving them medi- cine, machinery and other commodi- ties in exchange for grain and flax. Apparently there is an opportunity [to help Russia and strike at bolshev- ism through the same channel. ST MUST DRAW THE LINE, Even though certain citles in eastern Massachusetts have gone from trolleys to jitneys and back again, and as the result of the un- willingness of the electric road trus- tees 1o compete with the unfair ad- vantages presented by the autos compel tha street railway company fc maintain service, it ougnt to be plain to the people in those cities as well as elsewhere that if they ex- pect to Lave service wkich they de- sired furmshed they must give it such paironage that wiil make it possible. Where tthe kick is justified is when thev are giving proper pat- ronage and failing to get service. As might have been expected Gov- ernor Cool:dge in reply to the peii tioners cxpressss full confidence that the public wil have :> difficults ia obtaining eaeh transpoclation fas:l; ities as it is willing ant albie to pay for.

On the .other hand Jf it is not possible to suprert more than one kind of trai facilities the line will have drawn between trolleys and jitneys. In eastern Massachusetts a kic being registered because the electrics are mot run. Thé cars are not run because enough people do not ride in them to warrant their operation, The solution seems to lie right in the hands of the . people themselves. Either they should be willing to pay for the jitney service to such an ex- tent that it will meet their require- ments or eclse they should see the wisdom of maintaining electric ser- vice. Apparently they are not pro- viding patronage enough to expect that they are going to have both services and until they do they can- not complain if the one that cannot eke out a living quite. JOHN DODGE] Within the past year there have passed away some great captains of industries. Their names are familiar throughout the world because of the fortunes they amassed and the way in which they did it. Frequently it has been said that others are not likely to roll up as much wealth as they did- and yet there is no certain- ty in such statements. It is not prob- able that others will rise to the rank of the country’s wealthiest men through just the same channels that they did and yet it is to a certain ex- tent all a matter of seeing and tak- ing advantage of an opportunity. This has been disclosed by the ca- reer of John Dodge, whose untimely death occurred last week in New York at the age of 54 Possessed of a common school education, augment- ed by certain training he had received to Detroit at the age of 20 to make in his father's machine shop, he went his way in the world. Joined by his brother they were wage earners in a machine shop until 19 years ago they had enough to start a small shop of their own. They did good work and they had their difficulties but they prospered. The time came when they saw a chance to go into the au- tomobile business for themselves. They made the most of their oppor- tunities, did business on the policy of putting out meritorious work, and as| the result of that comparatively brief period since he quit as a wage earner John Dodge piled up $50,000,000. Where he succeeded others have failed. Where he became a multi- millionaire others are still working at the beneh. It all depends upon the willingness and ability to grasp and develop an opportunity. John Dodge canpet fail to be included among the on’s industrial captains, EDITORIAL NOTES, Another mill for Norwich if houses are built. There's a chance for a deuble benefit.

Left over cereals may be used to thicken soups, stews or gravies. An .excellent .breakfast .food is browned bread crumbs and cream. In the washing of gloves, whether | leather of fabric, avoid hot water. It potatoes are cooked in an iron pot they have a much better flavor. Never #ut meat into water to wash it, but wipe with a damp -cloth. ‘When you rip an old garment, first cut a few stitches with the scissors, then pin the material to your knee and rip with a sharp knife. Always keep half a lemon handy in the soap dish to use after washing your hands. Coffee tapioca is as easy to make as any -other kind, and is an agreeable change. It you have several parts or rolls of light wall paper, just try using them wrong side out. They make a very pretty tan room. THE VE('EETABLE SALAD. i It your family is not very fond of left-over soup, iry the left-over salad. It is just as good a way of utilizing the odds and ends of Mft-over vege- tables as is soup. X Of course, for 4 salad, the bits of vegetables must be neatly cut. For the soup pot they need mot be. But for salad they must. Cut them in neat dice or in strips, or cut them with a fancy vegetable cutter. Then, usually, the next step is to let them lie for a couple of hours in a little French dressing, on the ice, where they will become thoroughly chilled and ened. The dressing should be made of three parts of good salad oil and one part of vinegar or lemon juice, iwith any desired seasoning. Salt should always be added, and pepper of some kind. For many vegetables, a French ressing in_which chopped parsley has steeped for a few hours, and then been strained out through a piece of gauze, is good. Or the narsiey may be steeped just the vinegar or lemon juice. Onion juice may be added to the dressing if you like the flavor of onion—and there are many good cooks and eaters of salaas who think no salad is complete with- out a taste of onion. For a vegetable salad the lettuce may either be grranged with whole leaves, placed cup fashion, or else the lettuce leaves may be shredded with scissors into strips, and the strips piled neatly in mounds on the plates. Be careful as to the- combinations you make. Your own taste will prob- ably tell you what vegetables go well together. Celery is a wholesome ad- dition® to almost any vegetable com- hination. String beans go well ‘with diced beets, flowers of cauliflower, green peas or sliced tomatoes. Cucum- ber and tomato combine well and i cucumbers also go well with celery. Celery or minced green pepper may be added to potato salad. Diced car- rots and-peas are a goo combination. Corn cut from the cob goes well as. a filling to hollowed out tomatoes, 2 ABOUT POTATOES. When potatoes become old in April and up to June it is wise to pare them carly in the morning and let them soak in water for several hours, in order to restore moisture they have lost. The same treatmént will help those that we get in July and August are ripe and are indigestible, as any green fruit would be, so never give them to children or invalid HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Both power and rouge should be re- moved at night and cold cream and the face bathed afterward with warm wat- er and a pure soap, after which an- other anointing with the cream should take place. A woman who had been a “light eater” all her life and who was al- ways pale and wan looking was ord- ered by her physician to drink a pint jof cream and a pint of milk a day, in addition to eating three good sized meals. In six weeks she had gained fourteen pounds and was astonished to a state of wild jubifation because her cheeks were pink and rosy for the first time in her life. ¥or chilblanes, French druggists of- ten offer a decoration of walnut leaves, which is made for the bath; after this the affected purts are rubbed with spirits of camphor and then dusted with a powder made of 'two and a half drams of bismuth and three and an eighth ounces of pow- dered starch. A softening pomade, which is also most healing fd: chapped gkin, is {made in this way:—Cocoanut butter, one ounce; oil of sweet almonds, one ounce; oxide of zinc, one dram; borax, one dram; ofl of bergamot, six"drops. Heat the cocoa butter and almond on a double boiler, and when they are thoroughly blended add the zinc and borax; stir the mixture as it cools and put in the’bargamot last, REMOVING STAINS, The chemists of the department of agriculture have conducted a series of experiments in removing stains from various materials and the results of their efforts are summed up as fol- low. Blood and meat juice — Use cold water; soap and cold water; or starch paste. Blueing—Use boiling water. “hocelate and cocoa — Use horax and coid water; bleach if necessary. Coffee and tea (clear)—Use bolling water; bleach is necessary. Coffee and tea (with cream)—Use cold water, then boiling water; bleach if necessary.

DICTATES OF FASHION. Black frocks are worn merely as backgrounds for brilliant brocade vests or girdle. Many of the smart evening gowns use as trimmings large wreaths of fiowers and foliage. Dainty blouses have little aprons, front and back. Shiny black satin ribbon is much used as binding. 5 Every airy little dress has to have its touch of lace. Mole waistcoats are excellent with brown velour suits. / Plaid umbrellas are an agreeable change. New coat “models are ‘very straight and unbelted. Both dinner add evening gowns have sleeves which are hardly more than caps. The gayest of skirts are being shown in the shops. The big side pockets are a feafure. Judging from the winter's fashion notes there are to he a good many coats with detachable capes. Some- times a little fur cape is to part of a cloth coat—a detachable part, that may be put on and taken off the coat at will. : fréquently DARK COLORS IN SILKS. In the realm of silks for afternoon wear almst all the dark colors .are finding acceptance, taupe and the chinchilla shades being selected for daytime clothes as are navy blues, plum and dark red. Printed chiffons are regarded very favorably hy smart afternoon gowns for autumn and winter. Patterned fabrics of sheer material have been s0 popular during the sum- mer that it seems likely that their vogue will continue’ into autumn. For instance, taupe crepe de chine or chif- fon, figured in delicate designs in shades of dull blue, leaf, plum or flesh is exceedingly efféctive. Among the tones which are being selected for evening frocks are bright | blue, jade, mauve and sorchid. Tur- quoise” is another shade making a strong bid for popularity, and a soft silvery gray and a soft orange hue are alsn‘ai conspicuous on tire modish color card. HEAVY WOOLEN HOSE. The heavy woolen hose are being worn by Indianapolis young women with heavy leather oxfords as well as lighter weight dress shoes. The heavy ‘ English ribbed hose have a close-fitting ankle that is worm and comfortable as it is neat looking. These come in the heather mixtures and all white, COLLARS FROM DOILIES. With the present vogue for flat biblike collars, round or square, and oldd-shaped, drooping cuf comes a chance to utilize old-fashioned lace of_doilies. Two doilies of eaual size are requir- ed for cuffs. THe linen centers should be carefully ripped out’and the edge of the lace basted to the edge of the sleeve, from which it will fall in graceful, rippling folds. The collar doilie should he somewhat larger than those used for the cuffs, After the linen center is removed, de- cide whether you wish the collar to fasten on the shoulder or in the hack. If the do is round, all you have to do is to cut it in one place and hem the raw edges, and it is ready to be worn open either at the side or the back. But if it is square and the open- ing is to be on one shoulder, one side will have to be cut and faced or hem- med after being fitted and a tuck taken in the opposite side to make the collar fit smoothly. Of course, if the doilie is quite large and the neck line rather low,, the lace need not be cut, but just worn slip- over fashion, basted ~or pinned in place. LAUNDRY HINTS. Turn a silk glove wrong side out be- fore washing. Use warm water and pure soap dis- solved in a little hot water. No hoard should bhe used but the woolen should be moved constantly about the water and rubbed and squeezed between the hands. Then, it should be wrung out, rinsed thoroughly in clear, warm wa- ter, wrung dry and hung up. An excellent method for preventing iy bran wa boiled, the water strained off and the bran then added to the water in which the work is to be washed in the proportion of a handful to a pint of warm water, or the bran may be boiled in' & bag 80 as to be strained Dby ane and the same process. Fine lingerie must not be dried out of doors on a windy day that is cold enough to freeze. The combination of freezing and heating proves to much for the clothes. They freeze stiff, are heaten against one another and the line, and bread. Suchthings must be dried in the house and if a clean at- tic or empty room can be used for a drying room, the task is much sim- plified. The windows should be open- ed and the heat should be turned on, so that te air will be fresh and dry. REMNANTS OF LINEN. A -néw use for remnants or for dis- carded breadths of narrowed linen skirts is to make pillow slips of them pillow slips designed. to cover the small most used couch cushions. Make these slips just like ordinary pillow cases with hemstitched hems. They will give a fresh, clean, dainty effect that is often lacking when cushion covers are chosen for service in the reaction from the days when, to use one of the elaborately em- broidered ruffied “sofa cushions,” was nothing shot” of sacrilege. It you have enough of one color linen make two or three covers and nse them on the cushions at one time. When thése go to the laundry change to another hhade. But if you have'nt enough for more than one of a kind, choose the colors that go_best to- gether to use at any one time. In eneral shades of linen are soft and lend well. "As for comfort — nothing feels quite as cool and restful and clean as linen, and certainly no material after repeated tubbings —acquires lovelier sheen than does purg linen. CONCERNING WOMEN. n ‘the reign of Henry IIL four wo- men had seats in the British parlia- ment, v As late as 1878 Portugal had a law forbidding widows above the age of 50 to marry. The poorest Arab woman paints her eyes with kohl to make them appear larger and more brilliant. Preparations are going forward in England for a suitable- observance of the Fiorence Nightingale centenary next May. 5 The' Toronto (Ont.) Presbytery has decided to allow womhen to ocupy the pulcpits and take full charge of the services on one Sunday of the year. AVOID FINGER BURNS, Hang your tongs for handling hot fruit jars in a convenient place and use them to remove baked potatoes from the oven. No more burned fin- gers. They are -fine also to remove hot corn from the water in which it has been boiled. CEREAL CARTONS. Save your cereal cartons in which to store quart and pint_cans of fruit, berries, cherries, tomatoes, etc., that bleach when exposed to light. The boxes keep the cans from dust and help to preserve the contents. RECIPES. Baked Oranges—The firmest quality of oranges should be used. Peel four oranges carefully, removing all bitter substance left after peeling the fruit. Slightly separate the sections at the top anq insert three almonds in each orange. Place in a small stewpan and sprinkle well with one cup of sugar, add water as for baked apples, and bake in a slow oven for one hour to one hour and a half to prevent burn- ing. Serve hot, using half a cup of marshmallow dressing. ‘ Christmas Dreams—Prepare small rounds of bread toast delicately and butter on both sides. Have prepared one cream cheese, softened and rub- fcream and one dessertspoon of vine- gar. Chop one sweet pepper. half red and half green: mix with the cream cheese. Spread rather thickiy on the rounds of toast and place in a hot oven for five minutes. Serve hot or cold. These are much liked and eas- ily made.

Mr. Editor: As counsel for Dr, At- chison we wish to call your attention to an article published in your issue of Jan. 14, 1930, concerning the doe- tor's case now pending in the super- ior ‘court. L This article was so worded, that one unacquainted with the legal signifi- cance of the proposed disposition of the case might conclude that Dr, At- chison was admitting guilt in the mat- ter. Such is not the fact, Dr. Atchi~ son has and does deny all guilt in connection with the same, and would never consent to any disposition of the case that would impute any guilt to him. We feel it our duty to eur client and the public to call attention to_this. The truth is that Dr. Atchison from beginning to end would never consider a plea of guilty, and has insisted upon tha establishment of his innocence by trial. The proposed disposition of the case has been entirely at the instance of the subscribers, his atorneys. WILLIAM A. KING. THOMAS M. SHIELDS. JOHN H. BARNES. Norwich, Jan. 17, 1920, Answer Was Obvious. Mr. Editor: Just a word and T am through with the “Orle who voted for Bryan.” I did not write with.the ob- ject of having a discussion with any- one, much less a man who is afraid to come out in the opgn and give his name. I will briefly note a few things ich he says in his last letter. He tries to make an issue of the question of whether I approve of Bryan's break with Wilson. This I replied to in my own way ang supposed my answer was obvious to any intelligent reader. He says after much fencing I left the question unanswered. I can only say that if he had only stretched his ima- gination as much to find my meaning as he has the truth to say the ques- tion remains unanswered, he would not be repeating a question about one of the deadest of dead issues. He uses the mask of “One who vot- ed for Bryan" to call men like Lodge and Borah “things.” Who is this man that hides behind a fence throwing flones at decent people as they pass He goes on to zlve his version of Brvan’s first break with Wilson and tells us, according to his thought, what Germany thought of us, glving as a reason for Germany thinking as she did that we as a nation were di- vided into two contending parties— the executive being democratic and the legislative republican—which is not true in regard to the legislative, as the legislative only became repub- lican in November 1918. But at the time of which he speaks, Mr. Roose- velt and General Wood were thunder- ing at the adminisiration to prepare, Mr. Lodge from his seat in the senate, Mr. Gardiner of Massachusetts in' the house, and other patriotic men throughout the country were sounding the alarm, and it was not until press and people were: hoiling over that the democratic administration could be torceq to move.
