Every woman will want a separate skirt for spring to wear with the pretty lingerie waists and hand some blouseS. The blouses, to adhere strictly to Fashions dictates, must be of the same color as the skirt though it may be of a different material, or combination of mater lals. The skirts are much fuller at the bottom this season, but remain tightly fitting at the hips, falling away in pleats. Nearly all the skirts have pleats in some form or other and although there is a full- ness noted in the general outline. the Parisienne still adheres to her up and down aspect and pro- claims her intention of clipg1pg to 1t.

coLoRED DIscoNTENTs.

If there is no other quality which shows that the colored race is enough like other races to command recog- milton for the negro as a man and a brother, the disposition of portion to block the more progressive certainly indicates that they are quite equal to some of the self-assumed nobler races. One of the most senseless of recent acts on the part of organized men Is the appeal of the National Associa- ton for the Advancement of Colored People, addressed to England and Europe generally. which incidentally carries the criticism of Booker T. Washington that he has given a false impression abroad by saying that the negro problem was in process of sat- isfactory solution. This appeal is signed by a number of colored men who have been oficeholders of some kind or another but are so no longer, and by some colored editors who be- lieve the best way to uplift the race is not by gradual ascent, but by jumping all intermediate stages between the bottom and the top
 The Boston Transcript is right when il says "This problem is one that must be settled by this country un- aided, and it must be settled by rec ognition of conditions as they are by an adaptation of means to ends, and not by fiat or fiery protestations. If the process of solution is not progress sing satisfactorily it is not the fault of Booker Washington. No other man, black or white, has brought to bear upon this problem such close analysis such patience courage, devotion and common sense.'

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The sportsman's Responsibilities.

NGr. Editor: The shooting season is ended, and with it another chapter in the book of our experience has in many respects been better than the preceding one. Those enjoyable health giving. days are over, and with contented minds and invigorated bod ies we will take a new hold of our va rious businesses, working and plan ming for next seasons shooting. But while thinking of past pleasures, let us not forget present responsibilities that of taking care of our birds and game. By assisting the game wardens in the performance of their duties and feeding the quail for many of us know where there are one or more covies which with @ little care can be carried safely through the winter. The quail is a hardy little bird and will endure a lot of cold weather, if it can get something to eat. A little grain in convenient places, where he can get it will help him through the winter, and furnish some fine large covies for next seasons shooting; and add an- other chapter to the book of our ex- perience to be read over again in after years, when the sun is going down.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Tafrs message is made unartra ctive by its length and the ab- sencs of a vigor of style calculated to make the people discuss his reconmen- dations with ardor. The message is scholarly and progressive state paper and upon every subject which inter asts the people the president speaks right and assuringly. He stands for an sfgf1t-houf day. for the better pro- te0tion of worSneu by the enactment of an employers liability act, for the passaRe or a parcels post law making ths maximum weight of packages car ried eleven pounds. for one-cent post age and the taxing of magazines 8 price for postage somewhere near the cost te the government of delivering them to subscribers. and for bringing the franking privilege within closer limits by departmental regulation in the interests CT economy, and for a more definite law for the regulation of njunctions Tn legal procedure; also, for the generous treatment of the vet srans of the civil war. who are pass hlS away at the rate of three thou sand a month.
 He recommends the speedy prepara- ton of defsnces for the Hawaiian is- larroS and Kor tne Philippine islands; favors the expenditure of nine millions for ti1s defence of the Panama canal, and the charging of such tolls thero ss Co meet ths interest upon the large

might call them. They don't like these here modern innovations.
 As for myself, I take a neutral po- sition. I claim that both hotels have their advantages and I think our citi- zens should quit fussing and wrangling over such matter and try to build up the town You wouldn't believe how this hotei dispute has set brother against brother and brought deSola- tion to happy homes. Johnson has his partisans and so has Crowley and there's free fight once a week. and if a stranger registers at one hotel he's pretty sure to be hit with a brick when he appears on the streets by a sup porter of the other hotel. It's a great pity, for both Johnson and Crowley are fine men. and I've always insisted that they should consolidate Their two hotels and live together in peace and happiness. as the schoolbook says
 How many newspapers are there in the town?"
 Two, but both the editors are in jail, charged with assault and battery. It's a most unfortunate thing for the town, but those two editors"

THE ROYAL SPORT.

It is apparent enough that the royal sportsman is no sportsman at all. His methods smack so much of ease that they are childish and have nothing whatever to commend them since they do not contribute to muscle develop ment or good health.
 Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany went hunting the other day. That is, he stood in blind provided with stove. Gun 1oaders stood at his elbow. Drivers skilfully steered the deer past the blind and as the harassed creatures fled the kaiser blazed away His toll was fifty deer.
 King George of England is reputed to be d good shot and he enjoys grouse shooting. That he may have his fill of it, the grouse are raised in pens. cared for like chickens. Two or three weeks before the season opens they are loosed and permitted to get their one taste of wild life. Then the hunters descend upon them. A retinue of servants drive up the game, load the guns, carry the wraps, pick up the fallen and say "a good shot, sir A man who bags only 8 hundred is en- titled to curse his luck and this makes King George a royal sports man.
 And in just such way King Alfonso of Spain in a recent days hunt bagged over 1,60O birds.
 It Is not surprising American sportsmen regard them as royal game hogs. It is a brutal instinct which leads men to find joy in such slaugh- ter

How far is the town from this sta tion?' asked the dignified stranger who alfghted from a train at the loDe- some village siding, accosting the sta- tion agent, q man of nournful appear ance, with q good deal of brass on has cap. The dignifed stranger had look ed about in vain for hack or other vehicle
 Well, if might be matter of a mile or maybe more" replied the sta tion agent. There's been a good deal Of argument about it off and on. Squire Hexley says it's not more than three quarters of a mile, but then he has extra long legs and the distance doesn't seem so great to him as to some others, I reckon. Then, on the other hand, Jim Crowley. who keeps the hotel says it's a good mile and a half. but he's short and fat and he wabbles along like a walruS, and don't suppose his opinion counts I've always said that the best way would be to have the county surveyor meas ure the distance and settle this dis pute once for all for it's a bad thing for the town.
 Several of our best families are lined up against each other over this matter, and it's got into politics. and it's causing all sorts of hard feeling. I take 8, neutral position myself. I'm willing to admit that it's a mile and a half or three quarters of a mile for the sake of peace. I think the people of town should pull together
 Which is the best hotel in the town?" asked the dignified stranger.
 Well, now. stranger, you've asked Q question that's hard to answer" re- piled the station agent. You've broached a topic that's got the town split wide open Of course, Jim Crow ley has been here the longest. and he claims that his hotel is the best, and he's backed by many of the best fam ilies-the old aristocracy, as you might say. He's connected by marriage with the Drydens, and the Drydens are the real thing in the way of aristocracy. They are rich and influential and stand up for Crowley. The won't have anything to do with the people who stop at the Johnson house.
 Hank Johnson's been here only four or five years and the aristocracy $ down on him to beat everything. He sprung a lot of modern ideas in his hotel and the people around here don't take kindly to them. They say that every room in his hotel has some sort of push button and if you want a pitcher of water or a cake of soap or anything like that ali you've got to do is push that button and kid comes Ioping to your door to see what you want. At the Crowley house, if a guest wants anything he has to go down stairs for 1t and carry it up himself. The travelling men who come here seem to take kindly to the puSh-but- ton arrangement and Johnson gets most of that trade, but he doesn't cut any ice with our landed gentry, as you

A WORD FROM THE oUAILTRAP.
Calvin L. RaWson is Surprised by a
 Shower Of Souvenir Post Cards.

Last Saturday was a. birthday aTl11i- versary Of Calvin L. Rawson, and his Windham and New London county friends started a souvenir postal card shower as a fitting celebration of the day, and this is what MT. RaWson has to say about it:
 Are leaves thick in Ambrosia? Did you ever go into the showering woods in Voluntown in May and try to count the petals on the punches of arbutuS {! In a month of Sundays could you enum- crate the pebbles and sea- -snails on the beach at Weekapaug? If you have tried 10 answer these queries you can sym pathiZe with the writer when he got through counting his birthday cards on Dec 3 It is all right to get a kiss for evry year Of ones life. and it may be len regle" to receive sharp slap on the back for the full count of years, but isn't it, in a way. a waste of fine material to oVerWhelm newly -fledged septuagenarian with an avalanche of postal cards? The cards are all right, of course, they recall old city friends and neighbors, and cement new friend ships in the country. But Isn't it add ing bit to the white mans burden for the kind folks to expect q Scrfbbled, or typewriter reply to each one Of their favOrs2 So it seems Q social necessity for the Quailtrap man to publicly thank the senders of the 300 charming refnenn brarfoes which came to him on the day he left the ranks of middle age and crawled into the lean and slipper ed pantaloon of septuagenarianism. The number and beauty of hese flying raissives from the three N's-NOrwich, NoanS and North Woodstock-were hardly excelled by the juncos snow flakes and pea.bodies which are also coming for their winter welcome to the doors of the Quailtrap.

They Are Shopping Early.

The annual counsel to shop early may appear to many to have becoms q rather stale joke. They have noted the advice and then noted the crowds of Christmas shoppers in the last UT gent moments. They have learned the plea for the store clerk. that for the people going home wcarily from their work and compelled to suffer the agon- ies and ir11tatiOns of crowded street cars. And because they have heard this same appeal to thoughtfulness year after year they gain the idea that 1t is all wasted lung power and print ing.
 But we are confident that the appeal is striking home. People are more the suggestiong to shop early, to do it well and leisurely and comfortably. A few years ago the holiday advertising rush came only ten days or two weeks before Christmas. It is now a critical matter with which neWspa pers must deal throughout the entire month of Novem Der. Merchants are exact stu - dents of the habits and ways of their customers. They would not throw away their advertising funds upon the mere chance of trade. They would not, perhaps, attempt to create a trade ar ificiallY They advertise early becouse there is early shopping. because peo- pie do want to buy for the holidays in good time and do want to know about goods and the places where the goods are to be obtained. The demand is there.
 The advice is telIing.-Toledo Blade

NOT OuITE.

We notice that the Meriden Record says that Norwich has joined the ranks Of cities which have a commits sion form Of government As it is the nrst Connecticut city to adopt this form of government future develop ments will be awaited with interest" |"
 The Rose Of New England hopes to be worthy of the credit which the press -s SO ready and willing to give her for progressive enterprise. but she has rot yet joined the procession of 96 American cities in 24 states that are in the government by commission class. but she is on the way. and the pest representatives of her citizenship are lending their influence to the work of getting Norwich into this large and ever increasing procession The process is necessarily slow. for we must go to Hartford and get the new commission charter approved by the legislature in 1911 and by a majority of rhe citizens at the city election in June next, so the hope is entertained that Norwich will be in the procession by July. 1911, and that is the earliest date upon which this progressive movement can be consummated.
 New Haven is agitating along these same lines and the question which city will be first 10 join this procession is still an open question. Among the 2I 7rexan cities who are thus governed Galveston is the star, as among the I've Massachusetts cities Haverhiu is Tho shining light. and among the seven Iowa cities Des Moines is blazing Ju- D fer. and it would be pleasa to have Norwich counted among the lead ing cities in the country for up to date government and as the first in Con uecticut 10 shake off the old form and Co take on the new.
