He was8 a commanding figure phy: and politically ang built un a fellowing at Washington and in t that put him in a po tion of advantage for the leadership which he exerelsed. He recelved an edu- eation for the study of law but he devoted his efforts mainly to politics and his was an influence that was to Dbe reckored with whether it was In the halls of con- gress, in matters relating to the govern- ment of Pennsylvania and Philadelphla or in the conventions 6f his party. It is inevitable that a life devoted to polities on such broad lines as his was should make his name familiar from one end of the country t6 the other. He was fiumbered among the conservatives and one of the old school of politios and it s significant, despote all the attacks to which he as a leader has been subjected, that he mever lost the confidence of the people of his state, a fact prominently disclosed when election under the pri- mary brought him a larger vote than ever. Though broken by illness for a period ©of several vears he has never relaxcd his political control more than it was ncces- sary and in the last session of congess unquestionably hasténed his end by the committee work performed. He was a leader of marked abllity. —— ENCOURAGING CRIMINALS, New York has chafed under the re- peated assertion that it was suffering’ from a crime wave, that the authorities were not doing their duty and that be- eause of the publicity that was given to such claims much harm was done the oity. It can be appreciated that it doesn't llke such advertising and no sommunity eould be expected to. But how much is it doing to correct the situa- tion? From time to time, and at periods from dxy to day, New York figures prominent M the news of the day because of the ortmes that are committed within its lim- s, Some of the guilty ones are caught and others are not. That is no differ- mat than might be said of most any com- mmnfty -and yet the trouble may not.lie 50 much In the manner in whict lice authorities work as in the way in which the criminals are treatéd after they are caught. In this co ing report ion thers i8 an intére the filés of one of New York's county courts which shows that| of the 1185 criminals Who were brought before the judges during élévén months of the yedr sentence Was suspended upon 519 or 43.4 per cent., and they were men and women convicted by plea or trial of nearly every crime in the penal code from petty larceny to Manslaughter. And in these cases perhaps the worst feature is that suspended séntences havé beén given two and three timés to the same Individual. One young man coritinued to steal automobiles under suspendsd sentences until hé had beén arrested four times. Then the judgs séémed to think that advantage was being taken of the court and sentencéd him to jail, but throughout it all no thought sééméd to have béen given to protécting thé pub- lic against such an individual. 2 Such displays of léniénicy canrot fail to be regarded by the criminals as an invitation to keep at thelr work. Feel- ing that they are not likely to be pun- ished they seé no reason for reforming and the public takés the consequencés. Such contributions to the éncourage- ment of the criminally inclined indicate that there is.a point where leniéncy ceased to be a virtue and that it may be to a greater or less degree responsi- ble for much of the crime, st L, SOT A RECOGNITION. Admitting to the country a representa- tive from Russia who will have charge of the éxpendituré of the fen milli6n dollars that have been appropriated by that country for the purchase of supplies in this country in addition to double that sum which has heen voted by congréss for that afd of thé starving i not to be regarded as exténding recognition to the soviet government, It is simply a cass wherd Russia is doing something for the relief, of its owh péofile, and in recégnition of the hélp which has been and is being furnished by this country thé Russian fund§ are to be used for the acquiring of food supplies in this country. It is only natural un- der such circumstancés that those who are furnishing the money should desire o supervise the expénditure and as might be expected such Supervision can be satisfactorily accomplished by having 4 representative aufhorized to spefid such money_located in this coantry. It has been nossible for gome time for those who desired to carry on trade with the cooperative ofganizations of Russia. It was trade to which this government gavé o guarantees but in view of the fact that such trade was possiblé from this | country there seems to be no reason why trade agents from Russia should be ex- cluded. The mattef i§ simply a business transaction which in no way invoives government. We are to buy and ransport our own grain {of theé rélief and Russia has the same privilegé. The admission of a representative to do thé purchasing is thus by no means unreas- onable, ibly those who are furnishing the merey for the Russian relief in Russia feel quite the same a8 we did about the Aistribution of sueh foodstuffs as we rave advanced, that is that it should be done by our representatives and those in whom thére is confidénce. Cértainly any recognition of the governmeént in Russia will have to come thfough decidedly dif- farent channels than the admidsion of a répresentative to buy foodstuffs for the relief of the famine strickén of country. LOOKING BACK ON 1921, While we are at the point where we are inclined to take an optimistic view ahead, make resolutions which shouid help us to accomplish desirable thinss and undertake our tasks with increased courage it is but natural to look back and think over the nast twelve months. It is a vear in which a néw adminie- tration tock ho6ld of the reins of gov- ernment and as the result much benefi- cial legislation has been obtained, in which response has been made to a wide national demand for changes and better- ments and as the result of which a cor- responding degrec of confidence has been created among_the peonle. It is a year in which the machinery of government has been well employed in reconstruction, the elimination of the un- necessary and wasteful and the cutting of expenditurés with its corresponding effect unon faderal taxes. Likewise it was the year in wafsh peace was established after continuing in a technical staté of war for three vears despite the desire of the nation to get rid of the technicality that it might overcome Inflatlon and the uncertainty and not be obliged to figure upon them in connection with all undertakings. But perhaps the greatest achievement of all which promises to develop Into a success ‘“excesding our fondest hopes.’ is the conference called by the president upon the limitation of armament. By this gathefing of delegates and the sub- sequent endorsement by the respective nations there promises to be results of far reaching importance toward world peace in the future, through an under- standing among nations, through the ad- justment of problems that could easily be made causes for war and through a reduction in- naval armament that will overcoms that suspicion between nations which encourages -costly navies and the displa yof force, As the result of these accomplish- ments, as far as they have gome, the re- duction in unemployment and the bright- er outlook for industrial aétivity it is but proper that we should enter the new year confidence in the expectation that 1922 will sce still greater accomplish- ments in national prosperity and interna- tional relationships. EDITORIAL NOTES, 1922, Make it a happy New Year. Much rests with you, The hope now is that the conference will not stop its work until the full meas- ure of benefit has been assured.

Tests to tell when a caké is done are: Its elasticity to the touch of the finger, a clean straw when thrust in and out of the cake and leaving the sides of the straw clean. Iced cakes will look quite profession- al if, before icing put on a little flour over the top of the cakes. The icing then will not run-off. Instead of mincing that left-over cold beef, try this device: Chop up the beef rather coarsely, and to two parts of it and one part of tart chop- ped apples.

If you like fried fish, and want your dish_of it to be perfect, theén be sure that the fish is absolutely dry when it is put into the pan, and also the fat is absolutely boiling. Renember that boiling fat is guité still and doés- n’t bubble or hiss. VEGETABLES Almost all vegetablées aré good sources of vitamines. However, the heavy vegetables, such as spinach, cab- bage, lettuce and the fruit used as a vegetable, the tomato, contain a larg- er proportion. The poorer sources of vitamines are thé roots and tubers, such as turnips and potatoes, and seed vegetables, such as beans. MOVES THE ICE If you buy about 20 pounds of eoarsé salt, place in a box in your cellar, and this winter when the walks and steps are icy and you can't remiové it, just strew or sprinkle a little about and on them, you will séé the icé crack and it can be removed at once. IN CASE OF sPOTS Brush white kid shoés with a ben- zine soap solution, taking care not to touch the soles; rinse with a sponge dipped in benzine and sprinkle with plaster of paris or flour to abserb all the moisture, ‘Rub with a white cloth from time to time in drying and dry in a coel place. Many people have eq- ual success with wét ecleaning kid gloves, using water instead of benzine in the directions given above. HEALTH AND BEAUTY A healing ointmernt for skin erup- tions is made by mixing thorbughly one part of bismuth to threé parts of white vaselirf®, Keep a bottle of this stuff to put on a burn: Seventy five grains of ni- trate of bismuth in two ounces of sweet oil. The bottle must be well shok- eén before use, as the bismuth sinks to the bottom; if applied at éonece, there will be no blister after the burn. For a severe heaache a toweél wrung out of hot water and applied to the back of the neck will often give in- stant relief. Although Baby needs fresh_ air, he should be protected from the cold, and during severe weather he should have a shawl or jacket around the should- ers as he is likely to become uncov- ered. Feel the baby's feet, and if they are not warm, place a hot water bot- tle near them. Staing on the fingers that will not yield to ordinary methods can be re- moved by dipping the fingers in pe- roxide of hydrogen. Avoid a draught when very warm, it may indeed be comfortable, but that comfort will be short-lived. It must be understood that a breeze or moving air is not necessarily & draught. The precaution is given for. the pur- pose of a too-sudden checking of per- spiration. “Coel off gradually” is a very common saying. It would be bet- ter to say. “Cool not at all, but get less warm.” The cooling point is the danger point. GRECIAN HAIRDRESS There is a strong tendency toward the Grecian stylé in hairdréssing. The hair is drawn in soft waves to the nape of thé neck or to the .crown of the head, whichever may make the most becoming line to the individual wearer, and there twisted into an ex- aggérated psyche knot which is spread out across the head in fan shape. It is allowed to stand far out frém the head. This, of course, is not appropris ate for general daytime wear, but ie unusual and effective for the eve- ning or for any occasion whérs a hat is not required. DICTATES OF FASHION. Drop earrings are worn by women of all ages for street as well as evening | wear. Metal girdlés appear on fur coats as well as on dresses of all types. Cofiffure bands are in evidence to a greater extent than last Winter and are replacing Spanish combs. Paisley is noted heré and there for trimming effeots and for hats. Capes are worn by ultra smart women, Gauntlet gloves in fabric or kid are more often seen than short ones—these usually strap at the wrist. Spats are appearing frequently enough to have style significance.

They are made of modérately thin leather, wh%h most women like bétter ‘than the very heavy sort. They are made in Oxford style for cold weatheér. They have a shorter vamp and a broader ball than ehoes had a sea- son or #6 ag6, and the toes, though poifited, aré n6t of the toothpick variety. Thése shoes are destgned to wear with spats or with wool stockings.

Caramel is noted as one of the smart colors for evening wear, and it is seen in velvét, with trimming of brown tuil in Roman crepe, simply made with an in- teresting girdle of old ivory, and in georgette with dyed lace ' of the same shade. This color and gra{ are spoken of as possible favorities of fashion for the spring. CLEANING HINTS Charcoal powder i8 effective for cléan- ing knife blades which Hhave become stained.

NOVELTY SILKS Silk manufacturérs. believing that wo- men will want simple things in novelty silks next spring, have in consequenca designed fnany fabries that are unusual- Iy well suited to children’s needs. In the sports silks, for example, the “lond” milaids of sharply dontraeied colors and bold designs hate vielded t6 the quist things suitable for the <immye slip-on frock, &0 similar to the style affected i the juniors. Women are expected to want a great many fabries in all white or chines, fre- quently with tiny flctal patterns, well spaced on white grounds. The patternc are in delicate pastel colors, and the youthful, dainty style of these silks make them adaptable for vouns wearers. Paris sponsoring prints, aceerding to late advi- from travelers back from abr:ad, lends force to this trend. As to plain materials, from present jr dications hére and abroad crepe de chine is_to be ofe of the most Importan weaves. A number of fine grades of this weave are being made, inciu ing oné known under the name of cach. - mier, and many othet titles.

Mr. Bditor: A correspondent who uses a Latin phrase as a gereen amuses him- self in Socratical irony on “the acumen and temerity" of the undersigned. It does not seem to me (o be fair to the editor to use space on this page for the airing of personal reflections. My pre- vious letter to The Dulletin was writ- tén under the assumption that itg con- tents might of géieral interest to the people of Norwich For the information of E. P. U, I will say that Kugéné Debs has not re- canted and will preach “his special brand of truth” in the future. Although E. P. U. isn't “interested personally or po- litically in thé man,” over 30,000 cit- izéns of Terre Haute, are. This was the number of sigfers to a petition which was présénted to the president on De- cember 18th. The reception accorded Debs on his arrival in Térre Haute was the greatest in the history of his home town. Here is what some of his neighbors think of him. Herman Hulman of Hul- man & Co., wholdsale grocery house says: “We consider Mr. Debs unselfish and generous hearded; a man whose life has been devoted 2to helpful service to his followmen. His chief delight sesms to be to serve others. Many vears of close acquaintance have révéaled his many fine qualities to us, his thorough relia- Bility, his deep sincerity, his honesty of Meat purpose, and his rich endowment of mind and heart” And Ciarence A. Royse, attorney: “When this man closes his eyes in his last sleep something will go out of the lives of his neighbor: and frlends here jat home (regard’ess of party politics) that will leave & hurt which time can- not soothe or mew friendships assuage. It it is possible for men to love each other, 1 should say that this man is loved, hére, near his own fireside, where we know him.” GEORGE E. CAMPBELL. Norwich, Dec. 30, 1921 Good Deeds By Debs.
