In that state the fight sunrounds the nomination rather than the eléction and it is not to be overiaok- ed that in the naming of candidates for United States senator and for governor men were selected Who are strengly op- posed to the league of nations and who made their campaigns on that as well as other issues. 5 The result is that expressions have been secured from both extremes, those who live in a state that is admittedly republican and thoge Who-live in a state that is equally stropg the other way.

Now there is sup- posed ito te a‘cause for avery effect—even in church affairs. It may be that, as the church had never been hit, the continu- of the state indicated by their votes that|ance of lightning rods might seem like they were strongly for republican prin-|tempting Providengs—hepce the rods had to go. Or it may be that through de- fective conngetion the ehureh had been hit and lost several clapboards. In that case, they argusd, the rods were a fake and ought to go. - There is another rea- son, and vrobably the most plausible one, and that is the chureh had all the light- ning it could stand—frem within. It would be too much for such a ehurch to be under the impact of a double-header ; a boit from without and another from within. Hence the church acted wisely in remoying the less dangerous cause— the outside beolt. Seme churches have ail the lightning they can stand from the pulpit. It is less expensive te’ remove lightning rods than to feed minjsters with dynamite. When we speak of “sharks” the pri- mary referenee Is to a certain vicious ani- mal whese habitat is the sea. When we want to vent our »indlg&:u_ol;. against cer- tain land animals of same propensity we call them “Jand sharks.” There are differences between the two, but they are insignificant. While the one lives in the sea the other usually lives near it. The sea shark lives for the most part in the tropies, where tke water is reasonably warm, while the land shark dwells now mostly in temperate climes, but is going to have {‘a hot old time’ in the “sweet by and by." The sea shark will hide behind the blubber whale in order to get his.oil, while the land shark will hide hehind his oil to get the blubber.

Public Hedi}l Serviee Norwich, Qct. ‘8, 1920. $chopl Children Should he Vaccinated Very few people today have seen » case of smallpox, because, 88 a re- eult of vaceination,. civilized lands| have almest no smallpox within their | borders. Before vaccination was dis- rovered and praeticed, however, one- tenth of all deaths were caused by pmallpox. In R in these days, ! vut of every seven children born, ene! flied of smallpex, In the eighteenth ientury (before vaecipation was prac- ticed) sixty million people died of smallpex. H * In 1707, there was an epidemic of umallpex in Iceland, .and out of a pop- ulation . of fifty. thousand people nighteen thousand died of the disease. Just - think, nearly half the entire population carried off in a year by.a disease which teday can be entirely prevented. Yet, in.spite of all this, vranks go about crying out against ‘raeeination. In Prussia, before the Iranco- Prussian war (1870) .there were ninety sleaths a year from smallpox, to every one hundred thousand of the nopula- tion. Twenty years later, after - the amount of smallpex afflicting the soi- diers led the government to ‘adopt a nompulsory vaceination deaths from smallpox per on€ hundred thousand poulation fell from ninety to two. At the same time -(1884) Austria had net yet learned its les- non, did not have compulsory vaceina- tion, and had fifty-two deaths a year from smallpox per one hundred thou- nand of population, whereas Prussia had only two deaths. Do such figures mean nothing wou? If you are sane, and will li to reason, heed the advice here given: Vacgination * is a very - slight and painless operation, and is an effec- iive pretection against smallpox. All infants should b2 \Eccinated by the time they are six months old, and should be again vaccinated before ! en L — 10| agsumed - a cold, hard tome. they begin sehool. All people sheuld be revacecinated every six or seven years.” The re-vaecination is neces- pary because vaecination is known to protect against smallpox only six or seyen years. It is foolish te wait for an epidemic to break out before having yeurself re-vaecinated. Yeu may be eaught in the first lot that suffer and not have time to take advantage of the protec- tion of re-vaecination.

For at that early date an Ital- ian navigator, Verrazanoe, exploring for France, sail- ed into New York Bay. This first visit to New Yerk made little stir and was soon forgotten and it was Hudson's rediscovery which tempted the Dutch to send over -colonists and obtain for the Dutch West India Company a monopoly of the Dutch fur trade in Ameriea, The new colony which was started ia 1623 called their territory New Netherlands, after their mother country and their principal city, Ngw Amster- dam. It is interesting to retiect that Mamhattan Isl- and, which is ngw New York city, was purchased from the Indians for twenty- four dollars’ worth of beads and ribbons. Even in its earliest days the settle- ment on Manhattan Ieland was cosmopolitan, In 1643 it s reported that eigh- teen different languages were spoken there. In 1664 the English captured New Netherlands and King Charles I presented the eolony to his brother, the Duke of York, who was later King James 1, and its name was then changed to New nr‘f\:ew York played a leading part in the formation of the United States. It was Alexander Hamilton who was New York representative in framing the constitution and it was New York city which was selected as the first capital of the new Union, where Washington was inaugurated the first president. Ever since the Empire State, as New York is semetimes called, has held the eciding voice in presidential elections, Though its size is only 45,204 square miles, not quite half way in the list of states according to area, its great popu- lation gives New York 45 presidential electors, the largest number of any of the states.
