A Moth.r,s vi.vvs.

Editor Social Corner: Are you not glad the beautA0ii spring is with us once more. and the children and ev- erything seem happy?
 As I am a mother of large family I would like to say a few words With regard to young follzs. think if parents spent more time in talking with their sons and daughters instcad of gaddinE about and talking about their neighbors, etc, both the parents and the young people would be better off in the long run. Children should be taught to confide in their parents. and then they will not get into so much trouble as they otherwise are apt to. Fathers should instruct their sons and tell them what is right and set . good example for them; and mothers should do the game In re- gards to their daughters; and in so doing avoid lots of trouble.
 The rising generation will becoms purer and better and a more intclii- gent class of men and women.
 The little folks should be out doors in the pure air all they can and cat plenty of fruit in it's season. and then they will be strong and healthy and happy. The Social Corner is just grand. CRYSTAL VIOLET.

Called Out Into the Sunshine. Editor Social Corner: How good it is of you to call this the Social Corner instead of the Social Circle! It gives the corners and can only watch the do1ngs of the Social Circle.
 Jonathan was pr0wling about the corners or our garden one morning re- gently, when I heard him call out: Hannah! your crocuses are in bloom"
 mat calleG me out into the sun shine. eager to renew my acquaintance With the crocuses. How cheerily they were holding up their bright cups to the sunlight. as if to say: Here we are again, all ready to greet you, We have had a long rest in our winter ped and are glad to awake and do full"
 Then I looked about to find, here and there. signs of life in many a favorite. which had been resting awhile in Mother Natures bosom. How delightful it is to watch the re- turn of the plants in these early days of spring! How we exclaim as we find one after another has outlived the winters frost. and how we sorrow to are, indeed. old friends, lost for a time. and very gladly welcomed on their return
 For that reason, much prefer roots and shrubs that live through the sea-

The difference between them is as great as that between the lifelong neighbor- friend and the transient summer boarder. Both have their uses. but old friends are best, I am sure. There comes Jonathan now for his dinner. and my pen must be laid aside ite dinner for this time of year--dan- delions, fresh from the fields. Another old friend returned. you see. You dwellers in the city, dependent upon cultivated dandelions. cannot appre- ciate the true value of such a feast as ours We get with the wild dande- lion the flavor of the open field; they remind us of the fresh green sod from which they were taken, the clear open air of the upland, the sunshine and the dew, and all the delight we had in gathering them. With them come the thoughts of all the wild flowers and growing things we noticed as we searched for the greens"
 All this is lost to him who supplies his table from the market. for all this Is cultivated out of them.
 The wild dandelion is an independent freeborn citizen, while his cultivated the profit of his owner. Then. too, with our dandelions and bit of sweet, home bred, home-cured pork, we can laugh in the face of the meat barons and need not join the boycott
 Glancing this over, I fear 1t has no practical suggestion. such as you de- sire in these letters. So I shall have to try again

A causs for Complaint.

Editor Social Corner: I am very much interested in the Social Corner and there is one subject I would like to have discussed. We rave about Meat trusts, Sugar trusts, and many other kinds of trusts, but did 1t ever occur to you that we have one as bad, if not worse, in the Telephone trust. If one lives beyond the city line they must pay 8 monthly for telephone service, or spend nickel every time they wish to talk across the line. In Ohio and other west ern states. the farmers phone costs $6 a year, and if am not mistaken, entities one to call anywhere in the county.
 Now, if you were in Westerly and wanted to call a Norwich party it would cost you ten cents- If in Nor wich and calling Westerly, it is fif- teen cents. Why the difference? think it is time we send people to the
