Ever since the state of Pennsylvania proposed the placing of a tax on an- tkracite coal there has been evidence of much opposition from mafy directions. Not until recently has it come to a head, however, but as the resiilt of the conference of representatives of the New England states and New York a commit- tee has been named to confer with the attorney general and public officials of Pennsylvania and the federal depart- ment of justice for the purpose of de- termining what can be done to over- come or remove the tax. The tax which Pennsylvania has im- posed has been variously estimated to amount to from 17 to 50 cents. It is certain of course that while the coal companies will be the ones to pay the tax directly they will pass it along to the consumer and it is estimated by coal men that the consumer will be made to pay from 30 to 50 centg be- cause of the Pennsylvania levy. Pennsylvania is placing a tax upon a state product in a way that raises a question as to whether it is constitu- tional. For the purpose of determining this and to secure such relief as is possible for this part of the country the New FEngland authoritips, includ- ing a representative from the attorney general of Connecticut, are acting. Just where such a practice may lead to is plainly evident when it is realized what might happen should there be a, tax placed uvon bituminous coal or In fact other products from other states intend- ed for domestic consumption, At the present stage every household- er who uses anthracite has reason to be interested in the outcome. The tax isn’t large but It serves to inerease the price of a commodity that is already high and {t means the payment of many hundred thousand dollars by the people of this stats to ald the rumning of the state of Pennsylvania. The imposition of the tax has not been blocked and It now remains to be seen whether it can be removed. Connecticut eagerly awaits the result. CANCER WEEK. In connection with the designation of a day this month as fire prevention day attention is called to the fact that there are 15,000 lives lost each yedr because of fire which might be prevented if there was more attention paid to such conditions Which serve as fire hazards. Overcoming the needless waste of hu- man life is one of the powerful argu- ments for fire, prevention, Human life should be saved whenever and wherever it is possible. For that reason there cannot fail to be given se- rious thought to the efforts which are being made to create a greater interest in the national cancer week which has een fixed for October 30 to’ November The aim of such a week is mot to alarm people but to impress upon them the importance of fighting the disease from the earliest possible moment in- stead of waiting until it is too late. Just how much ne=d there is for car- rying on as determined a fight against cancer as there is to wipe out the white plague is indicated by the fact that, ac- cording to past records it ig estimated that there will be over nine thousand deathr from that disease this year in the state of New York alone. That !s over half as many as the total deaths from fire for the entire country, and the people of New York represent only the entire population. The deaths from cancer each year are nearly six times as many as those from fire. What is aimed at in connection witn the added publicity which it is expected to secure during the special' week is to impress upon the people the ,need of getting early attention from competent physicians. Tt isn’t nffintained that all cases can be cured. It isn't possible to how lerge a Dpercentage of cancer cases cam be overcome but in such cases as can be helped by medicine or surgery there cannot be disregarded the import- ance of early attention. It doesn’t ap- pear that there: js any known preventive but the large death rate from that dis- ease In its varlous forms can be great- 1y reduced if a dlagnosis can be made in time and the proper treatment given. The object “of cancer Wweek is highly commendable and deserving of the full- est attention. EDITORIAL NOTES. September has gone but we still have Indian summer to look forward to.

C., Oct. 3.—Republi- cans returning to Washington after the 30 day recess of congress are comment- ing freely on the ¥political situation as it looms up for next year. The situation in New England is in the foreground, as six senators must then stand for re-elec- tlon. or give place to new men. And with only twelve in all it is an unusual thing for a full half of the number to come up for election in a single year. The sena- tors whose terms expire March 4th, 1923, and whose seats must be filled at the 1922 election include Mr. MaLean of Connecticut, now chairman of the import- /ant committee on banking and currency and holding high place on several other commijttees or “major importance.. The other New England senators whose terms. expire at that time are Gerry of Rhode Island, democrat. Lodge; of Massachu- setts, republican floor leader, chairman of the forelen relations committes and sec- ond only to Secretary of State Hughes on the American delegation named forv, the limitation of armament conference; Hale of Xaine, republican, and Page of Verment, republican. Each of the sen- ators named are in the spot light of senate proceedings, as they all held chair- manships of great consequence Or are high up on committees dealing with the most momentous questions of the day. Page is chairman of the naval affairs committee. and Hale is a member of it; Gerry is democratic whip and chairman of the democratic congressional commit- tee. The ’22 election will name 31 sen- ators for terms of six years. Sixteen of the men whose terms then expire are democrats and 15 republicans. Senator Lodge is dean of the senate having served continuously since 1893, So ranks as number one on the statis- tical list, which runs to 34. Senator McLean ranks as 15 on the list having taken his seat in 1911. There 18 a good deal of speculation here as to who, of the New England sen- ators, will enter the campaign for re- election. Only one man thus far has de- clared his intentions. And that is Sena- tor Page of Vermont, now over 80 years old, and who has formally stated that he does not desire re-eiection, having serv- ed continuously since 1908. It is regarded as a forezone_conclu- ®jon that his successor will be Congress- man Frank L. Greene, now a member of congress from Vermont, who has serfed since 1912. Greene is an active mem- ber of the m ry affairs committee and whether or not his candidacy for the senate has yet been formaly announc- ed, his nomination and election seem to be taken for granted by many of his colleagues in congress. Tt 15 pretty well agreed here that Mc= Lean, Lodge. Hale and Gerry will be candidates to sueceed themselves in 1922. Senator McLean declines to make any statement as vét, but looking back on his Jast election, and from recent inci- dents that seem to show which way the wind blows, it is a pretty safe guess that when the time comes for announcements Mr. McLean will enter the lists with the full expectation of winning out. It will be recalled that in 1916 Mr. McLean hesitated about entering the field, on account of ill health. nce then he has entirely recovered his health, and is in prime condition to perform the duties of a senator. He is chairman of one of the most important and hazd working committees of the senate, which is that on banking and currency; he is high up on both interstate commerce and finance committees, and exerts strong in- fluence in framing all bills that come before these committees. The opinion here is that Mr. McLean will not re- linquish the influential position he holds in the senate and on its committees, by retiring from the senate through re- fusal to stand for re-election. Any ques- tion as te the condition of Mr. McLean's health this time is easily answered by the fact that he is spending more than six hours dafly at his desk In the sen- ate; attending every night session that is called, presiding over the committee on banking and currency, and taking the lead in framing its bills; besides attend- ing to the routine business of his office. He is tremendogsly interesfed in his work; he listened courteously and with attention to al] the insinuat eftorts of your correspondent to draw him out as to his intentions. but “nary a word” would he say that threw any light on his plans. All the same forecasters here are putting Mr. McLean in the ranks of these senators who will be candidates at the 1922 election to succeed themsalves. A good many people are wondering fust how Senator Sterling in charge of the anti-beer bill, will fight the nigger in- the wood pile, whose head cropped in sight when Senator Reed, opposing the bill, announced he should still oppose it, and would have the aid of other op- ponents in spite of the verbal agree- ment Mr. Sterling had made with other senators for quick actfon on the meas- ure. Whether it spells defeat for the Sterling bill, or merely delay in bringing it to a vote, is not yet known. Washington has had a taste of pip- ing hot weather the last few days, when the mercury In the shade touched 96 degrees. Fruit trees got decidedly mix- ed as to the calendar and some of them are putting out their blossoms with spring time freshness. Men from the de- partment of agriculture say, however, that although it may lessen their spring bloom it will not do permanent or severe damage to the next year crop. Senaters McLean and Brandegee have been active in the debates in the sen- ate this week, the treaty with Germany and the tax bill have held the floor. As members of the finance and foreign rela- tions committee both the Connecticut sen- ators were especially active in framing pending legislation. Mr. Brandegee hav- ing been largely instrumental in having the amendment attached under which the senate must confirm American members of the reparation committee and also de- cided whether or not such members shall be appointed. The Connecticut members of the house have mnot returned but are expected to be in their seats this week when routine work is again brought to the front. g 1 e - SR T ODD INCIDENTS IN AMERTOANW HISTORY NELLIE GRANT’S ROMANCE Gen. Ulysses S. Grant was so popular when he entered upon his official duties at Washington that naturally every mem- ber of his family shared with him in the esteem of the public. But none of them attracted as much attention as did his charming daughter,- Ella Wrenshatl Grant, better known ds Nellie Grant, and all her actions were noted with the clos- est attention. ‘When Nellie Grant on May 21, 1874 came to the White House alter to be married to young Algernon Sartoris, an Englishman, the occasion was spoken of as a marriage of the “first young wo- man of the land” with a /Britisher, who had an income of $60,000 a year—a for- tune in those day. His father had been a member of parliament. Young Sartoris fell in love with the president’s daughter when they met on a steamer, bound from England to New York. He was only 22 years old, while Nellie Grant was barely 17. The young girl was very fond of the Englishman, but it was nearly eighteen months be. fore the couple could win the consent of the president. During the wedding ceremony the bride and groom stood under a huge floral bell, with a background of flowers filling a window behind them. There were six bridesmaids, and Gen. Grant gave away his—daughter ~with -ili-concealed _emotien. TO PLEASE AUNT MATILDA “I've been shopping '"'h/ my dear Aunt Matilda from Kansas,” explained the limp girl with the melting eyes she wreathed herself among the cush- ions of the couch in the sorority house. “I am extremely devoted to her, but let me tell you that it is likely to be the end of me yet!” “Was she afraid to cross the street?” inquired the girl with the permanent ‘wave. The limp coed sat up with a jerk. “That was the best thing she did,” she streets I would not now be strongly started. “If she hadn't crossed so many convinced that somebody has wished upon me an extra size pair of feet which do not belong to me. She wanted to take advantage of the sales and buy a ready made dress and I said all right, we would go to Blinkinson’s store. Aunt Matilda said she liked that store very well, but that she was bound te get the worth of her money and in- tended looking around. “She said she had heard a splendid paper read at their literary club by one of their brightest members and it had particularly pointed out the folly of taking the first thing you say that you liked because you were likely to walk right by the next store window ahd see the same thing for a dollar less and then what would you think of yourself?” “I could tell her,” offered the girl with the permanent wave. “Always after I buy anything the papers burst out the next day in frantic advertise- ments offering the identical garment at 50 per cent discount.” “Dragging Aunt Matilda through the bargain seeking rush,” pushed the limp coed, “we reached the dresses at Blink- inson’s, and strange to say found just exactly what she wanted inside of five minutes, and it fitted her perfectly and was $10 less than she had expected to y. - “‘How perfectly lovely!' I chirped. ‘It isn't often this sort of thing hap- pens! Send it home and then we shall have time to take in that movie in which Tottie Tightwad in playing!” “Aunt Matilda turned a 100k of hor- ror upon me and said certainly not! No wonder I was always behind in my allowance and in debt if that was my financial system! The idea of taking the first thing you say! She had six \portal, the exciting contest with a mob other stores on her list and she in- tended looking over their stock to be perfectly sure she was doing the best thing for herself! “There was the football fight out in the street before reaching the next of other desperate women at the ele- vators and the struggle to grab a clerk. There didn't seem to be any- thing better at the second store. Aunt Matilda rather perferred the shade of the most possible gown, but was not 50 fond .of the style. Anyhow, it was too narrow across the shoulders and, moreover, it was $18 more than the one at Blinkinson's. So, taking large, long breaths, we braved the human tor- rent and tackled No. 3. There we found a perfectly sweet dress, except that it ‘was neither the color, make or size for which Aunt Matilda was searching. She regretted that dress immensely, and though the clerk told her it was a 36, while Aunt Matilda is a 44, she ingisted on trying it en just to get an idea of what she would have looked like if she. could have worn it. “At No. 4 they showed us their new- est Paris ball gowns, .in spite of Aunt Matilda’s firm insistence that she wanted an afternoon crepe de chine, and she was =0 upset by their back- lessness, skirtlessness and fortlessness that I had hopes of her abandoning the search. But she has pioneer blood in her and had no intention of giving up the ship. We pursued the list. We saw dresses that were too light or too dark, too small or too big, too stylish or not stylish enough, and all of them costing dollars and dollars more than the original one we had liked. Not one of them would do, and I was glad of it “‘We shall now,’ sai@ Aunt Matilda ‘go back to Blinkinson's and tak the dress I found there which suited me. I shall always be satisfied now that I got the best possible purchase in town in the way of my dress!’ So we 'mped, hobbled, groaned and fought our weary way back to Blinkinson's for the ori- ginal dres: “Go on,” prodded the girl with the permanent wave. “Oh, that's the end,” explained the limp coed with a little grin. “The dress had been sold to somebody else! "—Bxchange. e The East Room 1t is sald was decked for the wedding with with real orange blos- some from the south. he lace alone on the bride's dress cost $1,500. When the young couple entered they advanced to the embrace of a great eastern window, where hung an enormous floral bell, along an alsle formed by army and navy of- ficers in glittering uniforms. The maid of honor was Miss Annie Barnes, a daughter of the then Surgean-General. Several hundred guests, including mem- bers of the cabinet, officers of the army nad navy in full uniform, members of congress, the judiciary and out-of-town guests were present. The ceremony was performed by Rev. O. H. Tiffany, pastor of the Metropolitan Epfiscepal church, where the president and his family wor- shipped. Col. Frederick Dént Grant, brother of the bride, was best man. The breakfast that followed the wed- ing is said to have surpassed any spread in the White House up to that time. Following the reception the couple went to New York in a special car and.sailed for Burope in a few days. The pres- ents were valued at more than $60,000. In the Red Room, where the breakfast was served, a bank of the rarest of white flowers was formed on an oval table. In the Bast Room, aside from the fioral bell, the four large columns supporting the girders of the three windows were all entwined with the beautiful national col- ors. Pahms and other plants were ar- tistically placed about the room, the windows were closed and the room was brilliantly lighted. The wedding procession, which was formed upstairs, marched down the great stairway in the west end of the bufld- ing. As favors each of the ladies was presented with a piece of wedding-cake, put up in little’ white boxés about six inches long and three inches wide. The wedding was the the talk of the country for many months after it occurrence. (Tomorrow—When the British Occunied Our Capital.) READ YOUR CHARACTER By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1931 SNUB NOSES Some people consider snub noses pret- ty. Some don't. But in either case the chances are that they are not thinking of, or referring to the real, honest-to-goodness snub nose, but rather of what passes for it in our careless speech. So far as the real snub nose is ecom- cerned, not even a mother could contend that it was a mark of beauty in her adult boy or girl. The real snub nose is con- siderably more snubbed than the one we ordinarily designate as snub. It indicates an elemental nature, beth temperamentally and mentally. It does not, as a rule go with marked mental at- tainments. Its possessors are not likely to have studious tastes, but when faced with study they take it, as they do most everything else, in a very literal sense. Simplicity, straightforwardnese and naivete are the keynotes of their charae- ter, and you will do well if you do not rely upon them too implicitly for results in any task that requires imagination or foresight. For the rest, they may be active or pas- sive, intuitive or thoughtful, irritable or amiable, whimsical or steady, as may be indicated by the many other characteris- tics by which, in combination with their snub noses, you should form yeur opinion of things. . Tomorrow—Hairy Hands - I CHILD TRAINING AT HOME ll Lift off\v“’ith Fingel’s Dealing With the Angry Child. Of the many problems which confront & mother, one of the hardest is that of Mmeeting in the wisest way the undesira- ble traits that appear in children. In dealing with these problems there are two great helps. First. a sense of humor. If a child comes down to breakfast sul- len and bad-tempered, make some little joke, it helps to clarify the atmosphere. (I don’t mean laugh at the child, that only adds fuel to the fire!) but do some amusing thing, or tell a funny story and you will make the clouds vanish 1fke magie. Parents who appreciate fun and Wwho are the real companions of thelr little ones have the happlest #nd most affectionate children. But most import- ant of all {s grace. Grace I3 that lovely, loving spirit which, no matter how try. Ing the children are, cannot be disturb- ed. We cannot have this of ourselves, it is the gift of God. He says, “My graes is sufficlent for thee,” so, when the chil- dren are noisy and naughty and our nerves seem just about in pleces, let us say this over and over mentally and we shall be surprised at the peace and quietness within ourselves that will fol- low. Granted that we have sympathy and poise ourselves. we are in a fit condition to help ouf children to overcome their faults. Often children are cross. and nauty because they are over-tired, over- excited or hungry. We must be sure that their naughtiness does not come from some physicalgreason that we can help. It a child js in a bad temper the first thing to do is to quiet him. How? By being very quiet ourseives, but very firm, letting him see our strength and poise and then trying to find out what has stirred him. By our talking it over with him and letting him pour it out, his nerves will be freed and he will have an outlet for his passion. If he seems un- controllable and it is impossible to talk wth him, put him by himself until he is more calm. While he is in a temper be careful not to leave him where he can break or destroy anything. Often his outburst is like a thunder storm, the thunder and lightning are tremendous while they last, but are soon over. Then, just as soon as possible, direct the child, get him interested and busy about something. A much harder type of child te deal With and ome that tries our patience more, is the sullen child. He makes no outlet for himself like the angry chfld who vents his temper in screams and passionate talk. His bad tempér works all on the inside. He broods over the trouble, distorting and enlarging it by dwelling upon it. Me usually refuses comfort or sympathy and seeme to enjoy shutting himself away from everyone. He 18 usually a sensitive child—shy. lacking confidence in himself, inelined to dwell upon himself too mirch. What can we do with such a chiA? He won't talk the trouble out, like the high-tempered child, and it js unwise to put him by himself 2s you would the high-tempered child. Give him sométhing to be busy about Just as soon as possible, Work is even more necessary for him than for any other type of child, for we must get him out of himsslf. will have the companionship of his broth- ers and afhters. or perhap he can help you in what you are doing. Work is a blessing for mot peron, but for no one more than for the ehild who is inclined to Ive hig little life inside of himself. ‘This type of child is usually reserved and takes things hard, but to the few people he loves he gives a wealth of affectioh and loyalty and usually he has a deep, strong nature which is sincere and true.
