The Man Who Wins

The man who wins is an average man, Not built on any particular plan, Not bIest with any peculiar luck. Just steady and earnest and full of
 pluck.
 When asked question he does not
 guess :"
 He knows and answers "No" or "Yes. <" When set task that the rest can't do He buckles down until he's put it
 through. Three things he's learned-that the
 man who tries Finds favor ln his employers eyes That it pays to know more than one
 thing well Ii; That it doesn't pay all he knows to tell. So he works and waits till one fine day There's better job with bigger pay, And the men who shirked whenever
 they could Are bossed by the man whose work
 made good. For the man who wins is the man who
 works.
 Who neither labor nor trouble shirks. Who uses his hands, his head, his eyes That man who wins is the man who
 tries Unidentified.

lean,s fat and gristle, chopped, mixed and jumbled up with the fragments of cold boiled, mashed and baked potatoes, more for the sake of keep ing them from going to waste than with any idea of making a palatable dish. The hash of the Pilgrims is a poem, a corned-beef' symphony in red and gold that sa isfies the soul and makes a man experience the sensation of sweet content that impels him to re- nounce every feeling of bitterness he may have nursed against his neighbor or his neighbours wife, his man-servant, his maid servant, his OK or his ass, or anything else that ever displeased him. Pilgrim hash is more than work of art; it's the fruit of inspiration. And served in the companionship of the ''riz" buck wheat cakes, sissing hot from the grid dle and copiously fabricated with rich commingling of butter and maple syrup small wonder that it tickles the palate
 warns the cookies of the heart and fills
 every nook and cranny of the inner con
 sciousness with a sense of unutterable
 peace and good will.

Letters From the People
Then and Now.
To the Editor of The News |:

To the Editor of The News:
 The more we have, the more we want. And we want 1t quick. We must get rich quick. We must travel fast. We must do business by telephone, and do most everything else by electricity. When 1 was boy, a man worth a hun dred thousand dollars was as rich, com. paratively, as the man now worth mil lion dollars. The railroad train running thirty miles an hour was a fast express, and business was done by mail, with rare use of the telegraph lines.
 My father at that time was in the transportation business, being connected with the Providence 6 Worcester Rail road Go. He was first,- station master at small way station then agent at the Worcester terminal then superin- tendent at the main office in Providence. Later he was general manager and part owner in steamboat lines running be- tween Providence and New York. But that is another story. Railroads in New England were local affairs in those days. the Providence 6 Worcester was about 43 miles long; the Providence & l Boston, say A. miles long the Provi- dence, Warren 6 Bristol something like 20 miles long the Old Colony Railroad reached from Boston to New Bedford and Fall River to Newport. The Bos- 1 ton 6 Albany, with backing from the state of Massachusetts was accounted a
 big railroad. All of these were separate and distinct corporations, with local traffic. And 1 think I am correct in saying that the freight rate was estab- lished on the basis of "all that the traf- | ic would bear"
 l I have spoken of the railroads of which I had some personal knowledge in those early days. l might have men ticned the Providence 6 Stonington, some sixty-three miles in length. l remember when the Shore Line from 1 New Haven to New London-5O miles was new. Freight and passenger cars
 were ferried across the river from New London to Groton. We boys used to watch the cars being put on and off of those ferry boats. At first these local railroads were all separate. Each had its own freight rate, and it's own termi- | nal. Sometimes there was a Union passenger station. But freight was off, ten trans shipped, loaded and unloaded of course there was breakage and loss. | At Providence there was a track for freight cars, from the railroad switch 1 yard to the steamboat dock. But loco motives were not allowed upon It.
 man named Weaver had the hauling of these cars by horse power. He hitched six or seven horses tandem" one before another. Locally it was called Weaver s
 ''string team"
 | It was inevitable that as through bus mess increases, the little local units of transportation should be united. Why To save useless handling; to save time in transit to save duplication of man. agement to promote efficiency of con- | trol ; and to do it all at less cost.
 Let us think of these things when we hear men complain of railroad servlce in New England. R. K. s. West Cornwall, Jan. 20.

THURSDAY. JANUARY 30. 1918
HASH AND PANCAKES.

In an editorial article. printed a few days ago, the Hartford Evening Post said:
 "A short time ago a local church ad- yertised a roast beef supper. Presuma- hy 1t was success as church suppers are wont to be. Now comes another local church with the announcement of a hash and pancake supper. Why not a sausage and pancake supper, or are ausages too much in the luxury line to be obtainable for church supper?
 Anyway hash and pancakes ought to make pretty good combination and the bare announcement that church would rse these as the principal articles of food with which to attract its friends to a supper gives kind of distinction to these erst-while boarding house perquis- ties. Come to think about it, it isn't so long ago that hash and sausage were on fhe list with the prune as subject for jest and objects of sport for every per son who saw the humorous situation in tales of boarding house life."
 If the Hartford editor is blessed be- yond the necessity of coming down tC hash and pancakes. he is blest indeed and if his housekeeper is competent tC ooncoct a brand and blend of hash equal to the article dispensed at the recent hash and pancake supper given at Pil grim church in Canaan. and that isn't good enough for him, then is his epicu rean taste more highly cultivated than we'll becomes a newspaper man. But there are two kinds of hash-boarding house hash, and hash that's good to eat Pgse latter is the kind that's dished out Ky the Pilgrim maidens and matrons Am an appetizing and deglutitiou: delIcacy it is-not the indiscriminate and heterogeneous hodge-podge of odds and ends of any old kinds of meat left over from the meals of yesterday and the day Before and the day before that; tough

A Soft Answer.

The talkative old lady in the stern of the boat had pestered the guide with her queries ever since they started. Her meek little husband was fishing in sill ence. After exhausting every topic, she suddenly spied one of those curious paths of oily unbroken water sometimes ruffied by light breeze.
 "Oh," she exclaimed, "what makes the funny streak in the water?"
 The guide was busy rebaiting, so he merely hummed.
 "Guide," repeated the old lady in tones which were not to be denied, 'look where Pm pointing, and tell me what makes that funny little streak in the water ?''
 .The guide looked up.
 "Oh, that's where the road went across the ice last winter. ."-Exchangs.

What the Other Fellows Say.

Waterbury is not going to have board of trade after all but when its Chamber of Commerce is evolved out of the pres ent nucleus those busy at the "evolving" predict an organization that will keep the Brass City on the map everyone of the 365 days in a year and on circus day, also when leap years bob up.-Republi- can.

 Are there no progressives in Middle town? The local election Monday was fought out between the republicans and democrats, and the former wont-New Haven Journal Courier.
 There are very strong temptations in the way of personal advantage to cause men to lie or to steal. Intemperance and licentiousness sometimes have their ex- cuse in an overpowering physical ap- petite; but profanity pleases no ear, gratifes no desire, does no good, and, taken as whole. is the least excusable of all the many foolish things that fool ish man does.-New Haven Union.
 Never mind. the cheerful ones are certain that we shall have some hard weather yet.-Pittsfeld Eagle.
 If we were Turkey, under the circum- stances, and we had just two weeks to do something, we should spend fortnight in an earnest endeavor to establish an alibi.-Hartford Times.
 Sulzer's pardon of Brandt promises to be for the time being as repulsive to pub lie opinion as Dix's pardon of Patrick. But it may be forgotten just as soon.- Waterbury American
