IS a philosophy which teaches the
law Of moral cause and effect, and
Promotes the joy of universal
brotherhood and needs no per

e Reincarnation, the repeated
births on earth of us all, until we
have attained SO rich store of
life and knowledge that death is
impossible; that each man can
and must be his own savior, can

the divine light within himself
and begin to learn of his own di-

When Katherine Tingley came
west with these theories in 1900
andNestabliShed the theosophical
headquarters, she was accom-
panied by mere handful of de-
voted followers, who were deter
[ mined to put the doctrine of the
osophy to actual trial in daily life.
A Raja Yoga school of four
pupils was established; today it
numbers 500 students, from wee
tots in the nursery to nonogen-
sarians; the majority Of whom are
preparing to go out into the |
world and spread the teachings
of theosophy.
The object of the school is to |
teach self-rehance, self discipline, |
character building, the recogni-
tion of the divine within ones |

probation of the beautiful. AGA
dernic subjects are well handled
also, and the student energies
equipped to follow. professions
from forestry to the practice of
law.
Studies are never a task. The
school period is two or three
hours day, and the rest of the
time is given over to regulated
pastimes, outdoor games, manual
training, music or other such
duties.
Home life is preserved; the
married people lile in tent houses,
bungalows and beautiful villas.
No one is bothered by the servant
problem, for all cooking is done
in central kitchen, the meals
served from there TO the different
homes.
All work done is purely volun-
tary, each ready and willing to do
his share to help the others along.
Those who have independent
means help each as each sees fit;
there is no compulsion.
!. The only obligatory teaching
of theosophy is this that every
MUST adhere to the
teaching of universal brother
hood, must seek to practice it, live
p1irelysand act nobly.

TORREY FARM.
Represents the First Endowment Ever
 Made to Yale University.

A fact of interest at the present time is that the Torrey farm at East Putnam, property that has been in the family two hundred years up to this time in 1912, represents the first endowment that was ever made to ' ale university.
 The land originally came into pos session of the historical Major Fitch, who deeded about 600 acres of wild land in the northeastern part of the town of Killingly to Yale university" this in 1712, when that part of the town of Putnam was included within the boundaries of the town of Kill ingly. Before Major Fitch received title to the land it was the property of the Indians living hereabouts.
 In 1712, Rev. John Fiske, first pas tor of the first church in the town of Killingly, traded certain lands in the town of Salisbury, Conn, and gave cer- tain money considerations to the trus- tees of Yale in exchange for the wild land" mentioned, This Rev. John tiske was the fifth great-grandfather of Attorney Charles l.. Torrey of this city and of his brothers, who still live here and are resident in the sec tion of the town and on the property under consideration.
 Without break through all the 200 years this property has remained in the family and at the present time | the children of the ninth generation are growing to manhood and woman hood at the home that stands upon it. From among those who have made up and have been included within the number of those of the nine genera tions have come statesmen, jurists, ed ucators, congressman, and others who hnVvn records in many parts of the country. College presidents, college professors and men and women of note have spent their early days on this land of historic interest.
 Election Expenses. l The returns filed here by candidates for office at the national election held I on November 5, show that there was no exceptional expenditure in an eff fort in the name of any party or in the interest of any person to secure the honor of winning. The majority of the candidates, especially for the minor offices, spent nothing, while those who did meet costs of election did not find themselves heavily as- sessed. Wednesday marked the ex- piration of the fifteen days allowed for the filing with the town clerk of election expense returns.

will be a good thing to follow
up on these politicians little and
see that they make good"
