BIRTHDAY OF THE NEWS

This issue marks the beginning of the thirty-ninth volume of THE NEWS and may appropriately be celebrated as birthday anniversary. Unlike certain members of the fairer sex to whom has come an equal number of years we do not hesitate to make public the fact that we are still enjoying our birthdays. That this is possible is no doubt at least partially due to the fact that THE NEWS feels only an increasing sense of strength and vitality as the seasons pass.
 Reckoned by years the exact birthday of THE NEWS would be July IA, for on Friday, that date, 1871, the first issue ot the paper was turned out at Salisbury Nor has the day of its birth proven un- lucky. Since that time THE NEWS has been a prominent factor in the life of the extensive territory in which it ciroulates. From time to time improvements have been made which have enabled the paper to keep abreast of the times and to offer it's readers the best service that lay in its power. It has constantly aimed to be of material value and assls- tance to the business, religious, social. and political interest Of Lltchtleld County, particularly the townships in the northwestern section, and eongra' tulates itself that it has been granted at least some measure of success.
 THE NEWS counts as one of it's most valuable assets the friends 1t has made during the two score years that are passed and in our inability to invite them all to anything in the shape of an anniversary celebration we take this opportunity to express to them our ap- preciation of their constant support and to express the hope that we may con tinae to be means of instruction and entertainment as well as a power for good to the homes and to the communi- ties which it is our privilege each week to enter.

FIREwoRksAND PATRIOTISM

1t is sate to say that when we recollect the displays of fireworks, however gor- geous, of giant crackers, however deaf ening, no matter how much we may re- member in connection therewith it will be found to be confined mostly to burnt fingers, one or two deaf ears, probably several narrow escapes from severe in jury, but-and hereby hangs the tale . decididly infinitesimal recollection of anything that resembled true patrio- tism.
 The safe and sane Fourth is coming to be acknowledged more widely every year as the proper and rational thing. The amount of patriotism that can be instilled into either boy or girl by some simple patriotic ceremony or even by the reading of chapter from American his lory is worth more than all the bonn bast of the old-fashioned Fourth.
 By no means is this to be interpreted as condemning fireworks as source of amusement to young people and no doubt it is an advantage to have their use confined to one day ill the year, and when touched off by older persons who .oan be depended upon to exercise the necessary amount of care they are not particularly dangerous. When, how ever, the entire celebration of this one day of the year sacred to the idea of liberty and patriotism is made up of fireworks it's meaning is lost and It's pos abilities wasted. But if a single lesson of patriotism can be instilled into a single youthful breast the day will for ever continue to be memorable in that one life at least as being the anniversary of liberty and unseiish patriotism.

LETTER FROM MIR. CARL STOECKEL
Expressing Gratitude for the Loving Dno~o~4oL HL@roI I1s@

Expressing Gratitude for the Loving
 Cup Presented by Choral Union. The following letter received from Carl Stoeckel by Rev. A. W. Alderman of Torrington, President of the Litchield County Choral Union, will be read with interest by all members of the various societies which make up the County organization:
 Norfolk, Conn.,, June 12, 1906. THE REV. A. w. ACKERMAN, DID,, Pres
 ident of the Litchfield County Cho-
 ral Union.
 My DEAR SIR:-My wife and I beg you to convey to the presidents, officers and members of the Litchfeld County Choral Union the assurance of our pro- found gratitude for the beautiful loving cup presented to us on the evening of June 3 i'll the Music Shed, and for the kind expressions which came With the gift.
 For some years our most valued pos session has been a cup given us by the Litchfield County University Club, and at this moment, as we view the two cups before us, we are reminded of thar indis- soluble tie which binds together the bes telements of human nature, person flying to us the marriage of the two as- sociations, ever seeking higher ideals. It has been, and it will be, an honor and privilege for us to be associated with this noble band of men and women, and as long as life lasts our gratitude will remain, growing in depth, if possi- ble, each succeeding year.
 I am, very sincerely yours,
 CARL STOECKEL.

CLERGY OF LITCHFIELD COUNTY
Book Presented University Club Mem bers Has Much of Local Interest

Book Presented University Club Mem
 bers Has Much of Local Interest
 "The Clergy of the Litchfield County" the book of Rev. Arthur Goodsnough, the first issue ot which was presented to the members of the Litchfield County University Club at Norfolk recently, contains large amount of information that is of local interest.
 Among the personal sketches of pro- minent ministers ill the county is that of Rev. Hiram Eddy. D. D., in which is found an extract from an eloquent tri- bute of Mir. Eddy preached by Rev, John Calvin Goddard of Salisbury, and paragraph of MT. Goodenough's own recollections of pr. Eddy. Air. Good enough says,- During his Winsted pastorate, ,sthe outbreak of the Civil War led him to the front as chaplain of the Second Connecticut Volunteers. He was taken prisoner at the battle of Bull Run, and spent year in rebel prisons. It is said his prison experience changed his hair from deep black to white, In the years when 1 knew him, his gigantic figure, crowned with halo of bushv hair. pure white, made an impression of personal grandeur and majesty seldom equalsd. He was a man of heavenly visions, priest and prophet by tempera- ment and experience. A vision of Jesus Christ dominated and glorified his life. '"
 Rev. Joseph Eldridge, D. D., of Nor folk, who is still most kindly remem- bered by many here as a religious men, tor and guardian spirit throughout this part of the county, is written of at some length and of him MT. Goodenough says in part. He loved hls kind and studied humanity, not as a scientific problem, but as a means of understanding and helping the living, concrete persons whom he saw on every side in need of personal sympathy. All who knew him had high ideal of Christian manhood put before them"
 Rev. Daniel Farrand, for fifty years pastor of the South Canaan church, is highly spoken of, his complete knowl- edge of the dead languages, the sim plicity of his manners. dignity of ap- pearance, his wit and humor. Of the latter an amusing illustration is given. Ethan Allen published an infidel book entitled "The Oracle of Reason" and gave MT. Farrand copy to read. When afterwsrd he asked MT. Farrand his opinion, the latter said the paper of the book was of rather poor quality, other wise it had been unnecessarily spoiled.
 Other interesting biographies of con- siderable local interest appear ill the book, also statistics connected with the churches of the county and historical sketches including reference to all the denominations, making the hook of equal interest to all. It is handsomely bound and presents a fine appearance, making a valuable addition to any library. AL tering the words of MT. Farrand quoted above, we may say that the paper of the book is of the finest quality, such as the matter appearing upon its pages deserves.

HAVE FAITHIN YOURSELF

An exchange contains the following bit of wisdom: Have faith in yourself Have faith in your own opinion, and your own convistion of the right and true. Ton are suffi ,ient of yourself for every task before yoa. You have power to do the deed, to speak the word, to resist the temptation, U achieve tho noble, to compel victory.

MODES IN LINGERIE.
Princess Chemises Among the Really
 New Things.

Princess Chemises Among the Really
 New Things.
 Among the really new things is the princess chemise, a garment very like the combination of corset cover and short petticoat and one which could as well be worn outside as under the corset. It has very few seams, Is open and buttons the full length of the front, but about the neck is on chemise lines.
 And then we have the princess pet ticOats, made in all lengths, for use under lingerie or other gowns. They are made as n princess slip would be, and if there are any sleeves at all they are but three or four inches long, to cover the shields. The necks are cut square and finished with Il little lace, and the skirt parts have deep ruff fles with more or less ornamentation. The short petticoat has a narrow ruff fle below the hem. The most popular cOmbin2 tions are the corset cover and skirt or cover and drawers, but the three pieced affairs are cut on admira- ble lines and with circular drawers, which are full enough to form the skirt and give no idea to the divided parts.
 Much can be said in favor of these combinations. They are put on quick ly, do away with bands and unneces- sary bulk at the waist and are light in weight. N3ghtgowns for summer wear are of the short, loose sleeve style
 Some are in the empire fashion with a short waist of embroidery or lace, with the lower part of nainsook. gathered to it. The latest model night. gowns sent over by French firms have long, close slssves,~ but the American woman must be comfortable in gar ments that are worn in the hours of rest, and 1t fs doubtful if they find many admirers. The employment. of fancy. materials for all forms of un- derwear impresses one as being rather unusual, but the fashion soon appeals to novelty lovers, being much prettier and more economical than plain, as less elaboration is called for.

LEANING OF GRADUATION

It requires only a brief perusal of the paper to convince one that the event of the present week in the various towns represented in our columns has been the graduation exercises. It is time when all who have successfully completed a years work and who are thereby en- titled to advancement to higher grade or graduation from the school are filled with the realization of having accom- plished something worth while.
 Such exercises are of especial value in that they inculcate into the minds of the young the value of faithful, systematic labor with view to fitting oneself to occupy @ higher position at future time. The lesson is also valuable one for the reason that it is the same which figures at the motive force of all society, the spirit of emulation and ambition and the desire to become worthy of regard among ones fellows.
 The ambition to be fitted for a posi- ton of trust and responsibility is an honorable one, but only in so far as 1t IS unselfsh, When the aim is to fit one self to become an agent for the increas- ing happiness of ones fellow men, and to equip oneself for service in their be- half, then, and then only, is it laudable and worthy of encouragement. He who confines his ambition to his own advancement and qualification of his own desires solely is assured only of un' happiness and ultimate failure.

BALLOON HONEYMOON ENJOYED

Burnham and Bride Travel l75 Miles
 Across Massachusetts.
 After seeing the sun rise from the basket of the balloon Heart of the Berk- shirss and when they were approaching the Atlantic ocean so rapidly that Pilot Van Sleet could detect the salt air the first aerial night honeymoon trip ever undertaken in this country, that of Roger N. Burnham and his bride, camo to an end at Holbrook, fourteen miles from Boston.
 The honeymoon in the skies lasted just three hours and fifty minutes. In that time the balloon travelled l75 miles, or 1l5 miles by airline from Plttsfield. The highest altitude was 4,500 feet.
 Although fraught with dangers from the very getaway of the balloon, both the bride and bridegroom enjoyed every minute of the night above the clouds. After having escaped the jam and crush of a curious crowd at Aero park which theathened to prevent the proper balancing of their craft, they found at height of half mile above the earth that the statoscope on which they depended to tell if they were rising or falling had become useless. This was circumvented by the novel method ot using tissue paper as test.
