Circus Vanguard Arrives

One of the pleasant things for a newspaper is the announcement of a first class circus coming and this we have the pleasure of doing, Tor the Number One Advance Car of the Downie x Wheeler Shows was in the city today and the small army of men in white overalls and jumpers pasted every billboard, deadwall and avail able barn in and about Putnam with tiaring posters of wild animals, petite ladies, highspirited horses, wonderful trained ponies, athletic men and good ness knows what all. The "kiddiesu are thrilled with joy and the "grown- ups" gaze at the pictures and remem- Der the happiest moments of their happy childhood days. Baseball IS a national sport but the circus is the na- uanal amusement and 1t will never grow wearisome AS long ss managers and special agents SCOUT every corner of the globe for new and strange beasts and snappy death defying acts.
 The Downie X Wheeler Shows have grown large through sheer merit and the everlasting diligence of the man. aSeineht. Every act must stand the most critical test and each performer, musician, official or attache must be lady or gentlemen under all circum- stances or seek employment elsewhere. This is an iron clad rule with the Downie X Wheeler Shows and to this feature they attribute the greater part of their wonderful success.
 We will publish further details and all fy,a. dies to save their pennies and for the "grownups0 to arrange 10 go to the show and make the management prove that the statement "there is nothing new under the sun, is untrue. The date for the exhibition here is Satur- day, May Il.

Eastern Connecticut Association Meets in
 Putnam

About $50 school teachers came to Putnam Friday to attend the 37th an. nual meeting of the Eastern Connecti- cut Teachers association held in the Congregational church. The meeting proved ot unsual interest.
 The morning session was opened bv an organ recital by l.. 0. Williams. Rev. F. D. Sargent, the pastor of the church, opened the exercises by prayer after which Erie H. Johnson of the town school board, made an address of welcome. He said there were signs of progress in the air, for Connecticut stood fifth in the list of efficiency. The way to command higher wages he said, WAS to deserve them. The ad. dress was confined to inspiring enthu. siasm on the part of the teachers.
 J. Ii. Carfey, the superintendent of schools in Franklin, Mass, was the next speaker, and the first part of his address was confined 10 the early his tory of education and it's develop. ments. He said in part: Not only must the individual be educated To personal satisfaction but for the social world. The school is only place for providing environment; schools must meet the requirements. The meaning Of education means preparation for complete living. Children should

learn to do well what they like to do Do not make education a machine The teachers business is to build character"
 Dr. stephen Colvin of Brown Uni. versity next told about thought and the learning process. Teachers are not responsible for courses of studies and changes of environment, but are responsible for teaching in classrooms. Two great aims are imparting facts and inducing pupils to think. Drill is an important part in the first aim. More illustrations are needed in maps and pictures.
 Dinner was served at noon in the gymnasium by ladies of the church. In the afternoon an address was given by Thomas H. Briggs of the Teachers college, Columbia Univer sity, who spoke on thought and read ing. He said that 99 per cent lof all reading done is silent reading. The aim of reading is to get facts as rapid ly and accurately as possible. Read. ing should be made thought getting process; get the thought, summarize the thought, test the thought, give the thought.
 At the business meeting the follow ing officers were elected:
 Presidential. A. Tirrell of Norwich.
 Vice President-Robert K. Bennett Danie lson.
 Secretary and treasurer-A. N. Pot. ter of Willimantic.
 Executive Com mmittee-E. J. Ora. ham of Norwich, w. H. Perry of Ston- Ington, J. l.. HarrOun of Willimantfc.
 A resolution was passed that next year the association would meet on the same day in two cities, WilIimantic and New London. The programme in the forenoon would be in New Lon don and in the afternoon in WilIi- mantle. By this plan both New Lon don and Windham county would have a meeting.

Prof. Ferry G. Holden addressing tn ,

 from back steps Of a farm house. neglected forage crop. A systematicI
 canvas from farm to farm. grange toI grange. and oftentimes from field to|
 field was made in an effort to|
 bring to the farmer in his ownI home the facts and figures which navel
 been stored up in the pamphlets and|
 archives of the agricultural schools and colleges.
 Taking part in the campaign, eitherl in an advisory capacity or as speak CTS. were the following members of the Agricultural Extension Depart ment: c. NJ. Carroll. formerly with the Crop Improvement Committee; w. R. Baugham, prominent rancher and nlfalfa grower of Texas; j. E. Wag- goner, formerly of the Mississippi Agricultural College R. W. Lamson of Iowa; j. F. Buck of Chicago; c. W, Farr assistant county superintendent of Cook County, Illinois; the Hon G. H. Afford of Georgia, and C. H. Allen, a retired banker of Ohio.
 That the farmers were ready for the blessings which alfalfa strews over a neighborhood which gives 1t neighborly welcome, was evidenced everywhere by the crowds that greeted the campaigners at every stop. At no time were any of the speakers without an encouraging au- dience, and on some occasions the party was obliged to divide, part ad- dressing the school children while others spoke to the farmers The ad- vent of the cortege into community In the towns the children paraded out to meet the autos, singing special al- falfa songs and waving flags. It is estimated that between three and four hundred farmers in that one county alone pledged themselves to make a start with alfalfa and do it according ta the rules laid down by Federal Expert J. H. Skinner
 Kent County, in the census of 1910. was credited with raising only 7S acres Of alfalfa. but all indications at Che present time gre that by 1915 there will be f0.0G0 acres fourishing with this legume. It was shown that cn tho .ypical sand or clay loans east If the Mississippi alfalfa could be raised as easily and as surely as clover yielding three erons season and that it was the greatest plant the arm world has yet discovered for
 @acting nitrogen from the air and ~toring 1t up in the soil, thus re- luvenating run dewn and oyer-crap- ped farms.
 The Corn Belt farmer in alarm at Eis annually diminishing yields, IS urning 10 alfalfa as his one great hofe. and the bugle call sounded in Kent County is re-echoing in the en- tire eastern states As We go 10 iress, a similar campaign is gofng oh n Allegan County.
