They ARE NOT sPoRTs.

Where risky and competitive flights
are invited by large purses, the
Wrights do not seem to be tempted.
When upbraided sometime ago for not
entering the lists abroad, Orville
Wright remarked in his laconic way:
I'VE are inventors-not sportsl"
While Wilbur Wright showed what
the aeroplane was capable of doing by
his flight in New York Monday, he
was not tempted by the big money
prize to attempt to make flight to
Albany. He does not care to take the
risks, for his purpose is not to incite
others to try to make sensational
flights, but to show that he has in
vented a machine that is useful and
safe for sky flights when the condi-
tons are right. His aim is not fame
as a flyer, but the creation of the in
dustry of making and supplying fy-
ing machines for all who desire them
whether for sport or for business.
The Wrights appear to easily break
records, and when it comes to wonder
full work in navigating the aeroplane
they have yet to be outdone.

High HOOK.

Connecticut beat the country on
the finest corn produced last year and
now Rhode Island has taken the rec
ord for the highest average per acre.
To think that Little Rhody" gets
that glory is strange indeed. There
must be some intensive cultivation on
the old New England farms.-Bridge-
port Farmer.
Connecticut Is not jealous of her
neighbor If she has wrested from her
the honor of having raised the great
est number of bushels of corn upon an
acre in the world. The old New Eng
land farm is not such played-out
thing as it is reputed to be. 1t is
stated that thes average fertility of
New England soil is being regularly
Increased ana the output of corn and
produce is greater than ever. We are
just learning to farm-learning that
good feed and plenty of it makes good
and abundant crops if the cultivator
knows his business and is not afraid
to work. Rhode Island has won by
skill and industry and it is up to
Connecticut to get the honor back

cANADA's BEST YEAR.

While Canada can attract to her
fertile lands the bravest and the best
Of American tillers of the soil, she has
reason to be proud of her power and
we have reason to congratulate her,
for the benefits cannot be all to one
side.
A despatch from Ottawa, Canada,
says: Immigration into Canada
from the United States during the
last fiscal year was the largest on
record and even exceeded the num-
Der Of arrivals from Great Britain.
The newcomers are chiefly expert
enced agriculturists with capital.
Practically $4,000 Americans entered
Canada, and every man, woman and
child was possessed of an average of
$1,000 In stock, cash and effects. This
means that they brought into Canada
very nearly $4,000, 00O."
They have carried into Canada
something more than $4,000, 900. They
have carried there their love Of free
government and Of the old home and
will stem the foreign spirit which
would make enemies of two peoples
who must be friends. We are tending
to become one people instead of foes.

THE GAIN AND THE FLOSS.

The battle over the license question
leaves the liquor interests of the state
victorious, and as victors should with
six towns made wet which were
dry" the liquor dealers are a little
chesty and feeling pretty well,
thank you!"
1t must be conceded that they made
a great fight and have won; and they
have won because the Liquor league
has been compelled to set up a shout
of reform and to carry the business on
cleaner and more orderly. Speaking
of this side Of the, question, the
Bridgeport Standard says concerning
the cause of this change in public
sentiment:
1.-THE Illicit dealer has always been
the bane of the liquor business; it was
he who aroused the greatest opposition
to the trade, and 1t was he who was
the main issue whenever there was a
contest. Now the liquor dealers have
been after him and are still hunting
him. They realize that the life of the
business is at stake and that II 1t is to
have any legal existence the law
breaker must be crushed. Their as
ISOLATION urged this action on their
members, and with success, so that
nowadays the open saloon on Sunday
is practically unknown, at least in the
cities Of Connecticut. The liquor law
is better observed than ever and the
tendency is all in that direction"
And the no-license forces can take
the credit of creating this tendency.
We are living in days now when
the liquor interest is trying to evolve
the good saloon" from the saloon
system which is given until II o'clock
at night to close because that is the
safest time to shove into the dark the
besotted and dangerous products Of
the business, II the reason given by
Alderman Robinson and was appar-
emily accepted is Of true coinage.
II the communities of this state can
not be rid Of the saloon. they have
reason to thank God and to sing on,
IL they are about to see the liquor
association make the average saloon
respectable and the product of it so
gloriied that 1t will be safe to turn
it loose before all decent people are
in bed.
The results of these October cleo
lions may be a setback to the no.
license cause, but If it has been instru-
mental in making the liquor dealers
see that they must better their meth
DDS and improve their products to re-
main in business, who shall say that
the loss is greater than the gainl

SWEATER HINTS.

When putting on a sweater the first
time, button in front. pull the outer
edges of the shoulders up and out to
settle it over the figure.
Pull it forward at either side Of the
bust and pull the bottom well down
all around the hips.
This should be repeated the first two
or three times the sweater is donned;
and the garment will presently shape
itself gracefully to the figure as though
made for it.
Wash white wool sweater in warm
soapy water, after soaking I'm cold
water. Rinse by pressing up and
down in shallow bowl of clear
water.
Do not wiring, but squeeze dry, and
then spread the sweater on a clean
sheet in the sun to dry.
A knitted garment should not be al
lawed to hang even from the hands a
moment while wet, or the shape will
be spoiled.

CONVERTED TO DEMOCRACY

The grandson of W. H. Vanderbilt,
James Watson Webb, has had a peri
cd Of work in the railroad yards and
Offices in Wisconsin and has come in
to hand to hand touch and heart to
heart talks with them as fellow la
borers and this is what he says Of
them:
THE men with whom / worked
were princes. They didn't know who
] was, and they took me right in for
my own sake and were calling me
by my first name in a week. Their
word is their bond. Furthermore,
their life is simple. They don't get
divorces every few months. Their
lives are sane"
He realizes that high life as shown
in America today is its least COM
mendable life; that true life is being
lived every day by the simnle and
true men and women who carry the
dinner pals. make up the summer
picnics and live in glee on twelve dol
lars or less week. James Watson
Webb is honest-may he ever keep as
sweet as the democracy he admires.
