Service: There is . Japanese boxer
of extremely small dimensions in
town and there are reasons for sup
posing that some of his countrymen
are resentful because he is not at
tracing the attention they think is
coming to him. The sporting editor
now finds in his morning mail occa-
sional letters of the recognized
"schoolboy" stamp, in which the little
men of the ring are accused of dodg-
ing the Jap.
Here is a sample:
Why are it Young Togo have COM
mand no matches since arrival?"
Can it be possible nothing doing
because of hot stuff?"
The signature looks like Michigan
der" but of course it can't be that.
The office boy says he can make out
the letters MATsAI, and that then it
tapers off into the undecipherable.
But whether it is patriotism or
press work, it cannot help Togo to
any extent unless the local promoters
take a notion of exploiting him.

The Campfire Girls;
Success To Them

S. F. Examiner: DR.. and Mrs. Lut-
her Gulick OF New York have pro
claimed a crusade for the recovery Of
the romance OF strong and capable
womanhood. Their militant order Of
Campfire Girls" is to do for the little
women what the Boy Scout movement
is doing for the little men.
If the new woman" has renowned
the joys of good housepeeking and
left the homely and practical arts to
follow the lure of social ambition and
abstracts intellect, the Gulicks think
that the very newest kind of woman
can be brought back TO the abandoned
hearth by being made to look upon it
az a campfire in a tented field or a
vested flame of faith and chiyalry.
In palmer words, the girls are going
to be made to understand that there Is
| fun in doing things extra well The
working girls that have grown listless
over the monotonous tasks of shop
and store are going to be stirred to
see that the true goal of romance IS
not to be found in sentimental Fiction,
but in real life. And their pampered,
unworking sisters who have grown
listless from other causes, are going
to join hands with them in adventures

The prospects Of the Campfire
Girls con aims an inspiring idea. Pos
sIbly the proposed movement could
have been better named, and better
planned but 1t is all right in the
main Nothing is truer or more i'm.
portant than the discovery that there

just getting outdoors and putting ones

with material things.
Our public school training in this
country has been excessively abstract
and intellectual It has failed to con-
form itself to the plain fact Of human
nature that a youngster cannot really
learn anything that he doesn't know
without trying something that ne
hasn't tried-tnat people learn by adj
ventures, and not otherwise. II seems
that the effect Of book study with eX-
periments and experience is simply
to XIII curiosity and cloy the appetite
for knowledge.

Although this is not as many cables as was at first decided upon, there is plenty of room in the lina to place additional cables.
 The pipe line was built for the pur- pose of carrying the cables which convey the power from the Connecti- cut compary's power house on Sea- view avenue across the Pequonnock river In this maI.ner the cables will be protected from all danger and may be readily repaired at any time.
