WHY YOUR BACON
 COSTS 50 MUCH

With bacon retailing at 35 and 10 cents pound. people are wondering why such conditions abound. The meat trust has plausible explanation of this as it has for everything else on which it increases stockholders dividends by raising prices and this is the explanation the trust ex- poets you as a meat buyer to swallow:
 "foo much prosperity" is the princi- pal reason given by packers. as an sx- planation why bacon, for the first time in its history, is quoted at retail for forty cents pound.
 "The people want the very best and they are willing to pay for it." is the way the packers putt it. There is short. age they say, of fancy hogs, but point out that other cuts of pork are cheap and that beef and mutton are plentiful and low.
 "There has for long time been a scarcity of the finest hogs" declared representative of Swift & Company. "The only reason for the advance, how eyer, is that so many will only eat the very best and their heavy demand has caused the rise in fancy cuts"
 That explanation may sound plausible but many will doubt it's truth. 2. Many piece of old hog is sold as choicest bacon that never came from a choice bred hog. : Bacon is bacon with the majority of the packers and the fancy part of the bacon consists mainly of the printing on the wrapper, If people showed a disposition not ito pay for it" at the prices asked, those prices would not long exist.

President Charles S. Mellen of the N. Y. N. H. 6 H. railroad in reply to requests of the Connecticut Editorial association for more definite statement regarding the establishment of the Court of Commerce he recently suggested in his discussion of the public utilities Hill, says :.

II WAS TOUGH
 ON THE JUDGE

The campaign has many humors, but one of the best jokes'on candidates, and wholly unintentional on part of the worthy chairman of the meeting, comes from New London. A few night ago Judge Baldwin Democratic candidate for governor was scheduled to speak there and did. He was accompanied by Judge A. Heaton Robertson, who has twice been candidate for governor on the Democratic ticket. The hall was thronged. The presiding officer was effusive and complimentary. He began that it was his privilege to introduce to the audience the next governor of Con- necticut. (Applause.) "His name is known all over Connecticut. (Ap- plause.) Did say Connecticut? It is known all over these great United States. (Applause) Indeed. that is not suffi- cient. Wherever on this round world the English language is spoken there his name is known. (More applause.) I have the honor, gentleman, of introduo- ing to you your next governor, Judge A. Heaton Robertson, of New Haven"
 Judge Baldwin got up and not Judge Robertson, but both were embarrassed.

THE GLOWING
 OF THE GROSS

Fifty electric lights that have been placed on the big cross on top of the steeple of the Church of the Sacred Heart in Waterbury will be illuminated whenever services are being held in the church at night and will also be illuminated during the several feasts that are held during the year. It is the only illuminated cross bearing a place on 8 church in the country and Father Skelly believes that it will answer the purpose of calling attention to the ser vices better shan the bell.
 Steeplejack Matthew Murray of Wallingford took the cross down re- gently and the New England Engineer ing Company fitted it with half hun dred electric light bulbs, after which it was replaced by the steeplejack. Besides being an unusual sight, the illuminated cross at night is also a beautiful one, and it attracts much attention.

CHANGES SUGGESTED

CONNECTICUT SCHOOLS
 ARE ALL FAR BEHIND
Rank Lowest of Any in New England Because Children Are Taken From Studies Before School Courses are Half ompleted--Remedy to Apply.

Before the meeting of the State Teachers Association Dr Leonard P Ayres of New York. the former General Superintendent of schools for Porto Rico who is in charge of the educational re- search of the Foundation, and for the past three years has been conducting in- vestigations of the backward children problem, made the interesting statement that the state of Conneoticut ranks last among the New England states in the proportion of her children who receive a common school education, and that New Haven takes second place among the Connecticut cities in this respect and that 27 per cent. of the children in the New Haven public schools are backward.
 He said that the study of the laggard pupils in the elementary schools of New England show that 72 per cent. of the pupils who enter school in Maine con- tinue through the eighth grade; in Massachusetts 70 per cent. are carried through the elementary schools while Vermont comes next with 67 per cent. f; New Hampshire 65 per cent; Rhode Island 51 per cent. and Connecticut last with over half of the children who enter the schools leaving before they reach the final grade. In Connecticut only 49 per cent. of the entering pupils in the elementary schools complete the course.
 Law makers and publicists hold by
 ommon agreement that the education furnished by OUT common school course is the minimum which may safely be allowed the future citizens of this democracy. When then we discover that half of our children are not receiv-
 ng this amount of education. the prob
 em presented is grave one.
 Among the causes which have led up to this state of affairs Dr Ayers said may be mentioned the compulsory attendance

ENCOURAGE BOYS
 IN ATHLETICS

We are glad to see our school boys taking up football an1 generally de- veloping athletic training. Nothing is more conducive to health. A few old fogies may condemn this athletic tend ency on the part of the school boys. but that cuts no figure in the health pro- ducing results of wisely managed athletic sports. Harry l.. HillInan, a we'll known athlete, hits the matter squarely on the head, when he said re- gently regarding athletics:
 Every young man should take up some form of athletics. First of all under @ thorough physical examination and if pronounced fit get mixed up in some one of the various sports. Try them all Then select the one best fitted for your physical makeup, but do not go in for the hard competition until you feel that you can stand the strain.
 Live clean and get plenty of sleep Smoke if you must in moderation, but cut it out entirely if possible. Keep on the water wagon altogether. and take go q care of the stomach. D.
 Unless healthy fellow can use up some of his surplus energies ill athletics and get acquainted with the life of the athlete he may possible get mixed up with lot of unconRenial companions. As athletics takes up most of a persons spare time, he generally avoids all this.
 If not overdone and the young man is physically fit, athletics is the greatest developer for the growing youth and should be encouraged and not dis couraged
 The Canaan school boys are developing along athletic lines and the NEWS is glad to see it and wishes them all success.

THE S|LENCER 4
 CORRECTIVE FORCE

A Canaan school teacher has a novel way of punishing whispering pupils. She applies the .'silencer" to lips that have offended by much noise. The si- lencer is a somewhat unique implement of correction. It is piece of court plaster about an inch to two inches long lit depends on the pupil as to length, whether a small child or one of maturer years. This bit of court plaster is mois- tened by application, it is said. to the tongue of the teacher, and is then ap- piled across the offending lips of the child whc is made to stand or sit before the school wearing this badge of silence. The effect where two or more youngsters are at the same time undergoing this mode of punishment may better be i'm agined than described.
 It is conceded that the silencer is ef- fective in closing those whispering child ish lips, but how, about the sanitary con- ditions of such @ method of treatment :? Is 1t as safe as could be wished in this age of sanitary teachings. Some of the parents of children ara said to think otherwise, and if reports that come to the NEWS are reliable, the "silencer;" as a preventative against whispering is not destined to long life in Canaan schools.

Later they ordered "ginger alei' at their rooms aud smashed the empty bottles on the floor. One of the beds was broken down ln a room that they occupied. ss
 The boys had all the room on the top floor, and during the night some of them pried the numbers from the doors and from some of the doors on the second floor, which they took with them on their
