The Fiume situation was then cleared up and the government was placed in a manifestly stronger position and com- manding greater respect. Nevertheless there were' radical ele- ments that were still at work. There were those given to terrorizafion. As in other instances they overdid their part by going to the extremes that they did. This is no better indication than in the result of the election a week ago when the government was placed in a stronger position than ever. It plainly marks the checking of the influence of those who have been aeting and seeing red and indicates that Italy Is eafely past its crisic.

First it is one influence and then another that provides or takes away patronage. It was not so many years :ago that Norwich had a daily ex- cursion boat and there were years when it had two or three of them in order to get the people to the shore resorts and provide a day's outing. Trolley de- velopment made serious inroads into the business done by such boats until for some years now it has been. abandoned. But where the trolley was the means of attracting in other . diréctions those who had been previously served.by the boats, the trolley is today seriously bothered because of the many former patrens who are going by automobile on their outings and recreational trips. ‘Whether it is the fiying machine that is going to decrease interest in motoring rests with the future to show. But it is not here alone gnd it is not passenger service alone that is being af- fected by the motor vehicles. The busi- ness men of Portland, Me., are at the present time not a little concerned over the curtailed steamship service between that city and Boston. There was a time when this coastwise service was provided daily. Three trips a week are now made and the merchants are seeking the re- tarn of the daily trips and setting forth that business mugt be provided not only to obtain sueh but to insure.the contin- vance of what ig already furnished. It is the same old story that has been re-enacted elsewhere repeatedly and it is plainly shown that if transportation ser- vice of any particular charactgr is con-| sidered desirable and necessary, and if there is a feeling that increased service should be provided it rests with those who recognize the value of such serviee ghould be provided it rests with those who recognize the value of such ser- vice to give it the patronage that will make it possible to meet requirements. None of the business men are going to cont'nue in business if their particular enterprise doesn't make expenses. They cannot expect others to do any different. Likewise they cannot expect to get coast- wise steamboat service if they are going to take their business away therefrom and give it to competitors. at of in .- of a er x- to rt as ed WORTHY OF ATTENTION. Coal is something in which most ev- eryone is interested to a greater or less degree. The public in general is inter- eSeed not only in getting a supply but in getting it at a price which is not re- garded as robbery. Because of the va- ried experience it has had it isn't burden- ed with any teo much confidence in the situation surrounding the coal industry. Just as a burnt child dreads the fire those who have been caught and squeez- ed are timid about getting into any more similar predicaments. For that reason full weight should be attached to the advice which has been given the association of eoal producers by Secretary Hoover to the effect they should put forth their best efforts in an endeavor to secure and hold the confidence of the public. They will make a mistake if they undertake to console themselves with the idea that they al- ready have that much to be desired un- derstanding. There has In fact been too much to destroy such confidence ra-| ther than a sufficient amount of effort! to establish it. | In the belief of the seeretary of com-| merce there ought to be monthly state- ments of all the fundamental facts con- cerning their trade, such as totals of production, stocks on hand, percentage of production and average prices real- ized at the mines. That would enable the consumer to form an opinion on what he should pay for coal, make it more dificult to demand exorbitant prices and make easier for the opera- tors to interest the people in the filling of their bins at the time of year when the business can be best handled with- out having it felt by the public that the operators were getting them to pay a higher price by such a step than would be the case If they waited untl] later in the season, The importance of having the econfi- dence of the public ought to appeal to the operators without waiting to have it urged upon them. With such adviee coming from outside ite own circle, how- ever, there is all the greater reason why it should not be allowed to pass without reffection. EDITORIAL NOTES.

The “taste” is delicious. Always put the fresh napkins, hand- kerchiefs and towels in the bottom of the pile when putting away. In this way theéy will all be used. A spoonful or more of lemon Qulce' or good vinegar added to the apples that do not cook readily will hasten the process and improve the flavor when making apple sauce. To make “ch:ese dreams,” cut thin slices of bread at least one day old, spread with soft cheese and press into sandwiches; fry in butter. They are delicious. . Beat a pinch of soda into a custard cooked a moment too long, and it will entirely change its consistency. Pieces of cloth or paper dipped in turpentine will keep moths and car- pet bugs away. A Tar paper put among blankets is good to keep moths away. Vaseline stains are hard to remove: before washing they should be soaked in kerosene, Sift a little flour over cakes before icing; it will prevent the icing from running off. Turn the colander upside down over fish or meat when frying in a pan; the small holes prevent spattering, yet allow the steam to escape. A FEW USES FOR VINEGAR A burnt enamel saucepan is easily eaned with vinegar' and bathbrick: Vinegar and water will cleanse a slimy sponge. If new colored blouses are placed in water into which one tablespoonful of vinegar has been put, and allowed to remain for an hour or so, the color will not run when washed in the usual way. Vinegar put in blacklead instead of water will give a brilliant polish to the grate. SODA AS “FIRST AID.” Common baking soda is a useful friend to the housewife. Applied with a damp cloth, it will remove discolora- tions from earthenware dishes or re- move streaks from painted woodwork. ‘When the lamps burn with a dull, flickering flame, remove wicks from burners and boil burners in water to which a teaspoonful of soda has been added. Saucepans, bean pots and baking dishes which have become discolored inside and out may be cleaned by beil- ing in larger kettle of strong soda water. 1f the string beans do not snap erisp and tender add a pinch of soda to the water in which they are to be cooked. Applied to slight burns, soda will soothe the smarting. Baking soda applied to stings and insect bites and moistened slightly re- lieves pain, HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Used with warm water as a mouth wash, soda heals and hardens sore and inflamed gums. Scars are difficult to eradicate but a outgrow them. If one will be patient child or young person often will in time in steaming the scars and massaging regularly with a cold crean it will be of help. One of the best things to do for weak and flat feet is to take the feet in both hands while you have your shoes and stockings off and knead and rub and massage thm for about three minutes. 1f you will do this twice a day, morning and night, it will help greatly to strengthen them. A good thing to remember is that the nails need a certain amount of especially - if you do manual work. Both eolive il and cocoa butter are very good to rub into each nail. A DOLL'S HOUSE. Take a common egg crate. It is di- vided into two partitions. Stand it up- right, o you have two floors. Each can be divided into two with a partition of heavy cardboard in the center, making four rooms. A pretty window is cut out at the back of each and gay cre- tonne Dutch curtains are put up. Any odd but of wall paper can be used to paper it throughout, and some cover- ings for the floors. Now you are ready to fit out your four rooms as desired. Home-made tables, beds and chairs can be made and moved about at will. A couple of jointed ten cent dolls dressed up as ladies complete the home outfit and cretonne curtains hang over the en- tire front opening. The outside is all papered, and as a whole it is desirable, easy to move about and a joy to any little girl, ’ COVER FOR YOUR IRON BEDS Cretonne covers for your plain’ iron beds are the latest. For years you have used delightful shades of cretonne to cover up shab- by chairs and wofn couches, vet the iron bedstead has remained with its plainness unconcealed. You have no idea how much cozi- ness will be added to the bedroom by merely slipping a cover over the head and the foot of the bed. Such covers are easily made. Cut a pattern first in stiff paper the size of the bedstead o0 your measure- ments will be accurate. The covers should be made to tie with tapes, the tapes being o placed that they can be tied below the point where the mattress comes. Shades to harmonize well with the paper of the room should be selected. TRANSPARENT CROWNS NOT SMART. It was remarked in a snhowroom the other day, by a woman whose opinions on style are well thought of, that the hat with the transparent crown can never be smart. She said that the efféect of showing the hair through the crown detracts greatly from the smartness of the hat, and that in using malines, laces or hair braids, she always thinks it advisable to use a lining, either double or single according to the sheerness of the crown itself, so that the hair does not show through, but the effect of transparency is still obtained. DICTATES OF FASHION, Double faced jersey is effectively used for sports suits. Blege is expected to be the color of the coming season. The French costume continues to be elaborately embroidered. The extremly short sleeve is sald to be passing, and in its place comes the three-quarter one of medium width. A between geason coat of white rab- bit favors the fitted line. Batike continue in favor, a recent one reminiscent of a glorious sunset, A blue taffeta hat had for its trim cut-cuts of white leathe: Toques made of lacquered feather. effects are new, Btraightline ripple suits achieve their flare through gore or inverted tuck arrangements. Reports from Paris are to the effect that black is giving way te color and that rust and green are very popular there, Tan dresses are geiting to be aimost Roman sashes tied to hang below the hem of the skirt have appeared knife ‘NORWHH"I BULLETIN, MONDAY, MAY WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN with dark “suits of the short bolero coat. ¥ Short ostrich feather boas have been remarked completing modish. costumes,. A gray boa tied at the side was worn with a gray and blue Can- ton crepe frock, the frock made of alternating panels. . Hand-painted flowers on black satin, in place of the usual bead embroidery, were seen on a smart young miss at an afternoon tea. The mandarin coat of tricotine seems to have replaced the satin coat in popularity, the eleeves braided, embroidered, and also decorated with French knots. DAINTY TRIMMINGS. All white is a Canton crepe dress, trimmed with alternate rows of fagot- ting and hemstitching, with a softly folded Georgette sash. Gray Canton is used for a pleated dress with a plain waist and a two-tier skirt, the wide belt trimmed with a beaded design of flowers. » Taffeta and organdie are cleverly combined, making a smart dress of rust color over black taffeta, with tiny taffeta ruches, traced in a French bow knot design, on the organdie overskirt. Ruches arejalso used on the organdie, models to outline medallions of lace or embroidery. Pastel shades ate made into delightfully youthful madels at this house, numbers of small ruffies being used on the skirts, and the necks cut quite low, to shew dainty vests. A flame-colored linen chemise dress strikes a decidedly smart note in its plain, slender lines and becoming square cut collar of white linel The only trimming is rows of white and flame linen buttons, and the little vest is wonderfully dainty, made as it is of organdie with tiny tucks and Valenci- ennes lace. UNTRIMMED, It is well to remember when you buy your new lingerie that the plainer it is, the better will set your gown. Too much ornamented undergarments have been the ruination of more than one good-looking frock. LAUNDRY HINTS Much time is saved in washing if clothes are soaked. Cold or barely warm water should be used. * If the larger pieces of the iroming, such as sheets, counterpanes, etc., are folded andused as a pad while the smaller pieces are being ironed, much. time can be saved, as the large pieces will need little more attention after you get around to them. After blankets have been washed and hung on the line and are thor- oughly dry beat lightly with a car- pet beater. The wool will become light and soft and wear like new. 1f woolen blankets are to be washed it is worth while to make a supply of soap solution by cutting the soap into shall pieces and boiling the water un- til dissolved. A good soap free from alkali should be used. A bar of soap makes enough soap solution for two pairs of blankets. The blankets are much softer than if the bar of soap is used. The more pains that are taken in drying the clothes the less pains will have to be taken in ironing them. If they are hung straight and folded and - stretched carefuily when taking them from the line much time can be saved when time comes to iron, Clothes placed in the clothes basket any old way become wrinkled and take much longer to iron than those folded with some care. WHEN DO YOU MEND? It is out of the question usually to do mending before clothes are washed. Moreover, it would be inconvenient if washday comes on Monday. However, there are certain things that always should be mended before being sent to the laurdry, either the home laundry or the outside laundry. A eheet that has a small hole when it goes to the laundry may come back with a three-corner tear, and the sheet that has a three- corner tear may come back with a long rept. Some housewives change sheets Saturday so that time may be found before Monday morning 10 mend rents or tears. If your laundry is done at home then mending should be done as much as possible before the ironing is done. For this reason many housewives try to devote Monday evening to this work. The things that need to be ironed may be mended then in time to be ironed Tuesday and the other things, such as stockings, may be ironed the next day or evening. Many housewives never permit clothes to be put away until they have béen well mended. They keep a mend- ing basket handy and find time for the mending between household tasks. The woman who does her own ironing sometimes finds it a pleasant relief to iron and mend the same day, having a mending bag and an easy chalr in the kitchen or laundry. When she be- comes fatigued with standing behind the jroning board she rests by mending for an hour, and when mending be- comeg tiresome she goes back to the ironing. In this way she makes it un- necessary togo over the clothes more than once. As she sorts them for ironing she lays those aside that need buttons replaced or holes or rents mended. HOME ACCESSORIE.. A quickly made gift is a brach of foliage painted in the new stvle with colored, silver or gilt paint. Pussy wil- lows - rocatkins left over from former vears are charming silvered. And while one is wielding the paint brush in these new artistic effects one can transform old bric-a-brac into something smart and new. A book end, for example, that has become tarnisher will be ex- tremély up-to-date if painted first with crimson and then touched up with a purple in the soft, smokf effect. CONCERNING WOMEN. India has 27,000,000 child widows. Dr. Ethel Smyth has the distinetion of being the only Englishweman who has composed grand opera. The town of Peel, in the Isle of Man, has a woman town clerk in the person of Miss Lillian Pringle, 19 years old. Forty-one nationalities are repre- sented in the membership of the In- ternational Club for Women Students In New York City. An observance is to be held next December to mark the 150th anniver- sary of the death of Mother d' You- ville, the foundréss of the Grey Nuns in Canada. LEMON SKINS, There is usge for even 'the lemon skin. Bake it in the oven, after. the meat has beer used. When it ie erisp grate it, put it in a jar and use It for séasoning. ABOUT COLLARS, The vogue for wearing the collar of the blouse over the collar of the facket 1s quité discarded. RECIPES.

It is the most important of the days in the early part of July, 1776, in which the Decla- ration document was being prepared, presented and signed. On July 2 all the delegates, but those from New ‘ork, voted in favor of it. The formal declaration prepared by the committee was reported and discussed until late July 4, when it was finally accepted and signed by the president of the Con- g::s. John Hancock, and the Secr ‘Within a week the Provincial Con- gress of New York expressed its ap- proval. On August 2 an engrossed copy of the Declaration was laid before Con- gress and received the signature of delegates from thirteen colonies, fifty- six in all, though Matthew .Thornton, of New Jersey, did not sign until No- vember. v Grim jests were passed in the sign- ing of the document. John Hancock, writing his name large, said he did so in order that John Bull could read it his comrades that since the fatal die without spectacrles, and impressed upon was cast they must “all hang together in this matter,’ 'which gave Franklin a chance for his bon mot. “Yet, indeed, we must all hang together or assured- ly we shall all hang separately. Of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, Benjamin Franklin was the oldest, seventy years, and Edward Rutledge of South Carolina, the young- est, twenty-seven years. The average age of the signers was forty-three years and three months. Many occu- pations were represented, but lawvyers, of whaom there were thirty, were in the majority. Three of the signers, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Charles Carroll, lived to see the fiftieth anniversary of American independence, but the first two died on the day of the celebration, and Charles Carroll, the last sur signer, lived until August 2, third President of the United also died on July 4, James Monroe, but five years later than Adams and Jef- ferson. The 4th of July has, in years past, been a date on which to inaugurate important enterprises. On July 4, 1817, Governor De Witt Clinton turned the first sod in the construction of the Erie Canal, then considered a great under- taking. July 4, 1828, was celebrated ag the beginning of the first railway i this country, the Baltimore & Ohio, when, Charles Carroll, the surviving signeq of the Declaration, was present and t@rned the first spade of earth. Carroll said: “I consider this among the meost important acts of my life, second only to that of signing the Declaration of Independence, if, indeed, second to that.” To the Blacksmiths’ Association, which presented to him the pick, epade, hammer and trowel used in the ceremony of dedication, Carroll wrote: “You observe that a re- public can exist and the people under that form of government can be hap- pier than unde r any other. That the Republic created by the Declaration of Independence will continue to the end of time, is my fervent prayer. The corner-stone of the Washington Monument at the National Capital was laid on July 4, 1 day. President Taylor, who was ex- posed to the heat of the sun for three hours, on his return to the White ouse, drank freely of iced water and iced milk and also partook of some cherries, and shortly afterward was taken ill and died on July 9. The national birthday has, course of years, seen the birth of man men, some of whom have achieved re nown.
