gain almost equalllng the entire popu- l ation in 1756.
 ' Looking back at the record we find
 that in 1756 the metropolis of the state 1 waa our down-t -the-river neighbor, Mid l dletown In that town 5,664 men, wo-
 men and children were counted. In | those days Middletown had great ex- 1 pectationa. Norwich was second on tho list, pushing Middletown hard,
 with 5,540 population and we may inn agjne that when the returns were an- nounced there was great consternation in the town at the head of Thames riv- CT navigation because a few more ba-
 bies had not been born in that year. New Haven was third in point or pop ulation in 1756, having 5,0S5, but in those days New Haven consisted chiefly of Yale college and West Indian traders.
 Those three towns were the only ones in the state then whose population ex-
 ceedad the five thousand mark. Next
 came the beautiful old town of Fairfield with 4,455 people and Windsor was not far behind, being fifth in population
 with an enumeration of APO. Then came WaWngford with 3,713, Farming
 ton with S707, Stratford with 3,65S
 Stonington with 3,51S, Lebanon with 3,274-think of peaceful Lebanon out chasing Hartford-New London with S171 Norwalk with 3.050 and finally Hartford which had in 1756 3,027 people credited to it, although we feel sure some must have been missed; and of course, it must be remembered that when it comes to quality Hartford has always been first, whether lacking somewhat in quantity or not
 Those, then, were the largest towns in Connecticut when the baby census was born. They were all the places pos- sessing over three thousand people. When the last census was taken ten years ago there were fifty-three towns that were credited with more than three thousand population, and this years enumeration may make some ad- ditions to that list
 Passing on to 1900 we find that the race of the towns was becoming excit-

GROWTH OF CONNECTICUT


 The new volume Of the Connecticut State Register and. Manual contains, among other new features, a conpila- tion of the censusi returns of the state since the first effnmeratora made re- turns back in 1756. and the table pre- sents much interesting and exceedingly valuable information. It may be un- known to some readers that four cen- suses were taken prior to 1900, the first in 1756, the next in 1774 the third in 17S2 and the fourth in 179O. Since that time, of course. a census has been taken at the beginning of each decade.
 A glance at the compilation shows tbat in 1756 there were seventy one towns in the state whose aggregate pop ulation was 130,612 Since that time many towns have been divided and some of them show less population now than they did when the census takers first went their rounds in the last cen- tury, but the state as whole. has shown steady gains.The decade, in wbich the largest increase of the states population was made was from t3S0to 1890, when the increment was 123, 55S, the

some fifteen years. when her opponents were working along individual lines It brought Yale an unprecedented series of victories. We are on the road to a renewal of that organized effort again.
 Whether it bring with it such unbroken succession of victories as formerly is a question, and oneI perhaps, of not such vital moment as it is that Yale should do her best, and the best that is in her. In every case, in order to secure the greatest effect of the work performed by individuals, individual liberty must be restrictedn and the power merged in an organization which can intelligently direct all the affairs. And Yale, under President Hadley, and with the characteristic Yale pluck, should go on to future, broader, bet ter and stronger than ever, both inside and outside the curriculum.
