emphasis upon the religious life. 1t is
the element of religious obligation laid
upon the c. E. society which is its
life The thing that we ought to do
is the thing that we want to do. The
G.. r.. has come to the young people
and challenged them with an obliga
ton.
We emphasize the spiritual side of
life-personal devotion to Jesus Christ
the keeping of the quiet hour-then
going out into life to witness for the
Master. Simple testimony is another
characteristic of our service. If one
tenth of our church members would
go out to tell the story it would not be
long before the world would come to
Christ,
Learn to Speak for Christ.
Even in the Junior Endeavor the
children learn to speak for Christ and
to pray their simple prayers. They are
the beginnings of our men and women
who will by and by be the leaders in
our churches, and they ara learning to
speak the helpful word. Yet in many
places this training is neglected The
society OF c. r. has not only given US
the personal relation to Christ and the
ability to work for him, but the mem
bcrs are bang trained along lines Of
committee work.
Just q year ago | went around the
world with DIR. Clark and found many
missionaries who had their first i'm
pulse to work in foreign lands given
to them in the missionary committees

To Speak at New London.
After the reception Mr.. Goodwin will

will haves a smoker and short session
in the parlors of the Wauregan for
the purpose of voting in new members.

The republican rally will occur a
week later. Wednesday evening, Nov.
Cd. The details for this celebration are
being arranged. The Goodwin Lippitt
club will turn out in full strength and
may make a short street parade. For
the principal out of town speaker of
the evening Hon. George B. Chandler
of Rocky Hill has been secured by the
town committee. Mr. Chandler was
heard at the last banquet of the Nor
witch Board of Trade and is the best
campaigner in the services of the state
central committee for this campaign.
From the preliminary announcements
it is evident that Norwich is to be
aroused to an unusual spirit of party

encouraged to find that the new head

which the progressive republicans have

WE'D, MAR. 9, 1910,

The Ripper bill was passed by
the Senate last week and will be
vetoed by the Governor this
week. After the Governor puts
his disapproval on the measure a
chance to make it a law by a
two-thirds majority remains, but
from its passage it appears that
such a majority does not quite
exist. Plainly speaking no such
measure should ever become
law. A fair, square deal ought
to be handed to every man and
to both parties. Legislation to
advance party interests is not
right. The Ripper bill is not a
measure full of merit, but one
designed to deprive a man of one
party of his just rights and aid
the Mayor of Louisville in build
ing a strong political organiza-
ton. We are glad to state that
Senator Bertram, of this District,
voted against it. He is repre-
senting the people who elected
him who stand for honesty on
every proposition.

EIGHT CENTS A DAY.
Workers Pay In England When Board
Was Shilling Week.

There was a time when a workman
In England received 8 cents day as
an ordinary wage. when skilled ar
tisans commanded 10 cents a day and
when women worked in the field at
such tasks as reaping straw, hoeing.
planting beans and washing sheep
for 2 cents a day, and a wise student
of the subject has expressed the opin-
ion that the British workman of that
day was better of than he has ever
been since then.
That sounds paradoxical. But the
explanation is this: The workman
who sold his services for 8 cents a
day could buy good beef or mutton for
IL cents pound. Wheat cost him on
the average only IS cents a bushel.
He could get board for u to 16 cents
a week. The pay he would receive for
fifteen weeks services would suffice
to purchase supply of suitable food
