Miss Dunn, who was formerly drawing supervisor at the Normal school. is an eminent au- thority on her subject, and her lectures have been listened to with closest at tention, as they have been entirely practical in nature, and unusually well delivered.
 Miss Dunn has set forth the modern demands of these subjects in general, and has indicated by means of plans for subject matter and methods of teaching, the adaptation of these uni versal technical subjects to school, home. and industrial uses. Miss Dunn has prepared many teachers of draw ing and manual training, and is a thorough believer in offering equal op- portunities to children in technical art.

Provided the purchase price is within reason, the park commission CTS will purchase that triangular plot Of land bounded by Bank, Hebron and Shaw streets at the junction of Mon tauk avenue, now a public eye sore and convert it into a parklet This property is owned by James O'Neill, the actor, and the only income is from house in which there is saloon and tenement, except the few dollars that is received each year for the small building that was one of New London's earliest school houses, but which is not large enough to serve as
 coal bin for the present school
 building. Therefore the property is not very productive to it's present own
 er who presumably has no intention
 of making any improvement or even
 increase the revenue. It is understood
 that the commissioners are willing to
 take the property from MT O'NeiH
 and without any loss to him, but is not disposed to pay a fancy price.
 This plot of land is now a disgrace to the city. but is so located that 1t can be converted into a veritable beauty spot and a place of rest and
 recreation as well. Years ago it was given out that MT. ONeill was plan ming to donate the property to the city for park purposes and in return 1t was to be designated O'Neill park. At that time the actor was in the zenith of his success, considerably younger than he is now and probably 1 imbued with public spirit in keeping
 with his histrionic and financial suc- { cess. There is almost universal hope that the property can be obtained for the city. be converted into a small
 public park, and thus eliminate one of the city sections that keeps New London backward in becoming the l City Beautiful.

see Limitations to this scheme. It probably wouldn't work everywhere, nor in every case. But the fact that 1t will work in some cases and in some places is amply proven by the suc- cess of these two widely separated truckers. Very likely it might work even where, at first thought, success would seem doubtful. Methods might have to be varied somewhat to meet varying local conditions and the whims of different consumers. But there's no patent on the plan, and no penalty for infringement or for chang ing it's details to meet changed con ditions. My own impression is that there are a good many cities, like Norwich, for instance, where the first local market gardener who should try the scheme would stand a good chance of reaping profitable results He'd want to start in small and experi- mental way, so that his loss,-if the plan should fail,-wouldn't be great He would mighty soon find out wheth- CT enough consumers were ready to meet him halfway.
 Anyway, the idea is worth looking into a bit, both by producer and con- sumer. The former ought to make more money by it, where it will work: the consumer ought to save something worth mentioning over what he now has to pay

Fels-Naptha soap is the best and easi- est way of washing. If Fels-Naptha didn't do what we say 1t will, no woman would buy second cake. Yet more than mil- lion women use Fels-Naptha every wash day. And the number is increasing as fast as its value becomes known.
 If you haven't used Fels-Naptha, try it, according to directions, and on the result we'll stake OUT chance of making you regular user. For your white things, soap, roll and soak for thirty minutes in cold or lukewarm water no boiling or hot water. Then rub lightly, rinse and hang out to dry. That's all.

NEW LONDON WELCOMES SAILORS Great Change Noticed in Conduct in Past

NAVAL STATION FUTURE UNCERTAIN

The presence of half a dozen torpe- do boat destroyers in the harbor and three battleships in the offing, reminds of the days of the civil war when New London was a sort of rendezvous for soldiers and sailors and of the diff ferences of then and now in regard to the war vessels. Then the war ships that came to the harbor were frigates and sloops of war such as the Sabine, the Constitution, Constellation, Mace donian, John Quincy Adams and oth- CTS of similar type, for then the stee! or even partially armored vessel was new to the harbor. There sure has been big change in warships since the time the fleet of whale ships sailed from New Lond0n to be sunk off Charleston harbor In connection with the blockade.
 There is also a marked change in the general behavior of the men when on shore liberty from the war ships. Then there were drunken street brawls and general misconduct and reVelling after the men Wera ashore long enough to take a cargo of grog, and there was side fight between the marine and the sailor on sight. Now the sailor and men as whole are remarkably we'll behaved and a great improvement over the old time Jack Ashore. In the civil war time to have a watch of a ships crew ashore meant a terror to the townspeople who almost knelt in prayer when they were rounded up and taken aboard ship. Now, as demon strated the present week, with over five hundred men from the war ships on shore liberty each day, there has not been the slightest disorder and the sailor, the marine, and even the sol dier and civilian seem to be one great happy family eacL doing his best to make it pleasant for the other fellow. AS for the townpeople as whole, there is regret to have the men from the ships leave the city, showing that there has been quite a change between then and now.

Discussing the iceberg question, Prof. John Milne of London write2 that the year he visited Newfoundland an ice mountain had stuck in the Nar- rows, which is the entrance to St. Johns harbor. The capital of New foundland was bottled up. "A fort pounded at the intruder for time, but they might as well have pounded at the Karakoram mountains. The monster stopped all traffic either in or out. On the third day, however, 1t heeled over and sailed away"

and to take away a coal barge and some working material
 Experiment is being made with quite a quantity of submerged coal and that will remain at the station until fur ther orders. It may be that this aban- donment of the coaling station and the ultimate dismantling of the operating plant is just a clearing away for a something better, and that after all in the words of the late John R. Bolles father of the navy yard on the Thames, The navy yard at New Lon don is sure to be the great navy yard of the future" But that statement was made many years ago, before the station was really established
 A boatswain, one experienced and competent, is now commandant of the New London naval station, but his working force is not as large as the station is entitled to by reason of it's admirable location and natural advan- tages. At different periods since the establishment of the station it has been devoted to several special fea- lures of the naval department, but just about as they were in smooth working order they were ordered else where, perhaps by reason of the lack of social surroundings in the vicinity of the naval station on the Thames

In at least one other case, the hamper idea has been taken up. The Farm and Preside writer knows of one trucker, selling his vegetables to Deadwood, Col, who is now marketing his entire output this way, and there by saving expense by using fewer teams and men, while making a surer profit.

Anything which would cut them out would enable the producer and con sumer to share between them the six ty cents now lost along the road. The consumer ought to be pleased if he could get for seventy cents that which he now pays dollar for. And the producer would be tickled half to death if he could get seventy cents where he now gets only forty
 Any method by which this mutually desirable consummation can be reach ed is worth serious thought and sym pathetic trial.
 But there's one thing that must be borne in mind: the consumers of farm and garden products vastly outnuno- Der the producers. Their interest in the matter is the larger and the near est to controlling. They have got to meet the producers half way or the two will never get together The producer can't do 1t all. No matter what method he may adopt. 1t is the consumer who will eventually approve or veto the method. Really. the game Is in his hands and the rules are largely of his making.

In proportion to the strength of the navy there are probably no more total abstainers now than then, but there sure is less public drunkenness and consequently less boisterousness and scrapping. That there is considerable booze drinking now is suppored by the statement of several saloonists who declare that the supply of some of the wet goods was exhausted before the closing time arrived. It has been a big week for nearly all lines of business and made so by the men from the ships In order to suppress disturbance should any happen to arise among the many sailors ashore, 8 police patrol or provost guard Is sent from each ship to keep tab on the liberty men. Unlike the regular police the members of this patrol go about visiting from saloon to saloon and a nod or a wink to a fellow shipmate is as effective in preserving order as the knock out blow of regular policeman's club The patrol, with the designating white uni form, fraternize with the liberty men and the best of order is the result
 The sailors tear off many amusing and harmless stunts and are perhaps given little more freedom than is per haps allotted the civilian, still every body seems satisfied with the condi- tions. There was an amusing and un- usual scene on Bank street when pedestrian traffic was light. Two of the patrolmen and a shipmate on fiber ty were standing near an electric street light when one of the party sug- gested having a shake for a glass of beer. It was agreeable and one of the trio whipped out three large pocket dice. Then the sailors sat on the side walk tailorstyle and shook the dice for the drinks, several rounds but the patrolmen took but one drink and the balance of what was coming in cigars. Imagine couple of New London po- Hcemen in uniform sitting on the side walk in full uniform and shaking dice for the drinks with cop off duty, and then the sit1a tinn will he hattar an-

A slightly different method is pur- sued by a large New Jersey trucker. lie found, some years ago, that he couldn't make live of it. if he con- tinued to let himself be fleeced by the outrageous charges made by express companies and commission men and carters and jobbers and the other grafters who stood all along the road from his garden to the consumers kitchen, snatching every one some toll off the diminishing loads. So he adopt ed the plan of taking orders direct from customers and filling them di- rect from his own wagons He pre- pared a circular, telling exactly what he was going to have for sale, with a fixed price on each article. He guaranteed that everything should be fresh and of good quality He agreed to deliver 1t, as wanted, on certain days, at each buyers door, Then he interviewed such consumers as he could reach personally, and sent the circulars to others. In this way he worked up a very fair business which. the last l heard of it, was steadiyy increasing He made no pretense of 'peddling." His customers simply let him know what vegetables or eggs or butter or broilers they wanted, and he delivered the goods.
 He has to have more teams and drivers than he did, but finds that their extra cost isn't so much as he used to pay the railroads and the city carters and the other handlers. while he gets much better prices, and has no goods thrown back on him, with the stale lie about their having lar rived in bad condition"

Two things are sure: One Is that the consumer is having to pay excess sive prices, these days, for almost everything, and that he is beginning to get ugly about it. So ugly that, if the tendency continues unchecked much longer, "suthin' Is goin' to hap pen" The other sure thing is that the producer isn't getting any ap- preciable portion of the difference be- tween the prices of today and the prices of ten years ago. Ten years ago l sold my lambs for six cents a pound, live weight: last summer six cents a pound live weight, was all I could get for exactly similar lambs. Let the consumer compare what he paid for leg of lamb ten years ago with what he had to pay last fall, and note the difference. Ten years ago I sold all my surplus apples for S1.75 a barrel Last fall the best offer I could get was $1.50 a barrel. Let the consumer compare the price he paid per peck or bushel, last winter, with what he was asked ten years ago. and note the difference.
 Some few things, like hay and po- tatoes, which were unprecedently high winter and spring, the farmers them selves were offered big prices for. But that was because farmers, as a rule. hadn't any of either to sell.
 The fact remains that, taking all farm grown crops as they run, and throughout the country as whole the producer gets only about forty cents out of every dollar the consu- mer pays. The rest goes to pay for the automobiles and steam yachts and champagne suppers of the grafters in between.
