II Is the fashion now to pull down
tn idols OF the past and set up new

ones In their places. to rehabilitate the
degraded and to reverse the decisions
and the DEGREES of history Speculation
and criticism seek out dark spots and
drag new heroes into light, while
those who stand In the light OF fame
are scrutinized so closely that they
seem but common things after all. If
we go on at this rate much further we
shall not have a villain left, nor a
beauty. nor hero.

The interrelations between the vari.
GUS organs and members of the body
are sometimes so subtle that they es.
cape the attention of anatomists for
generations and then come up as SEN
sational and important discoveries. A
physician in London, DR.. William Mar
tin Richards, has had occasion to OBJ
serve a relation existing between the
eyes and the voice and has recently
made a statement of two cases that
came under his treatment where ac-
tresses who had lost their voices COM
pletely recovered them when treated
for defective eyes and fitted with prop
er glasses. He tells of one young wo-
man, in whose family eye diseases were
hereditary, who found herself ut the
age Of twenty-five losing her voice.
Her eyes were found to be in need Of
attention. and when she had been sup
piled with glasses she promptly recov-
cred her singing voice
When she discarded the glasses some
time later and her eyes were once
more neglected her voice also relapscd
into husky state that prccluded an
singing This practitioner has OBJ
served O number Of similar cases. and
the discovery Of the relation between
the eyes and the voice should certainly
be valuable 10 stage folk and others
who depend largely upon their voices

WHERE EVERY MAN SHOULD
VOTE RIGHT

There are two things to be acted
upon by the voters OF the towns of this
state at tire town election which
should command popular attention and
non-psrtisan action. one of them
concerns the lieutenant governor. who
should be given power ia act in the
absence II the executive.
The other amendment is one that
concerns the present disgrace to the
state and that Is the limiting of the
sessions of the general assembly. The
proposed amendment provides that
the legislature shall not remain in
session after the Wednesday following
the first Monday in June.
There is really nO-eXcuse for author
izinF a six months session of the
general assembly of Connecticut when
bigger states have q limit of 80 days:
but the habit here in the early weeks
OF the session. which are marked by
three sessions. perhaps. of two hours
each, makes il necessary to allow for
