 The acceptance of the cure can be withheld until the demonstrations have been fully tested and the government Investigation into the serum completed. but as long as no harm can come from fhe use of the discovery, it offers surh great possibilities in behalf of a world wide need that it can well be viewed with an open mind.

OVERCOMING uNsIeHTLY SPOTS

An incident at Cornwall, N. Y.
 shows the good effect which the clean =
 up movement has created throughout
 the country and the recognition of itl
 worth and importance. Repeated ap-
 peals to the authorities had failed to accomplish the desired results and re- aIiZing the importance of cleaning up the banks of a creek the women of the village elicited the aid of the Roy Scouts and accomplished tkeir pIr- pose. It was a locality which had heen made a dumping ground because it vas handy and no one objected.
 That village was experiencing the same condition which is to be found in many boroughs and cities and it simply required the expenditure e little well directed effort and proper desire to overcome the eyesore. tr ad- dition to the individual effort which plays a leading part in accomplishing results during cleanup week. there is need of making it a point to devote certain amount of consid eration to the abatement of such conditions as t1ose at Cornwall. There are numerous places which will get no attention during any movement for better con ditions. judging from past experiences but the interest of the women and the Boy Scouts offers a new avenue for accomplishing still greater benefits. It is a scheme which many otter places will doubtless take up with the oppor- tunity for a. great success as was ex- perienced in New York. The D an brings about a combination of effective workers

RESTS WITH THE cITIzENs.

For some time at least experiments
 in New Jersey are going to hold the l cttention of those who are interested in commission government. Jersey City having reached it's decision to make l a change, by large majority, took
 an opposite view of the merits of the plan from three other places in the same state. The generally assigned reason was that political corruption in Jersey City had reached such q state
 that there was demand for release from its control. a condition which act
 uates many communities to seek some
 thing different.
 Corruption being the underlying
 cause for the decision to change the
 method of government the citizens
 have made an excellent response for
 betterment, but their task is by no means completed by the decision to establish the new form. It simply means that greater responsibilities must be assumed by the people Where as corruption was made possible by the failure to select the proper men to operate the government of the city under the old system it now becomes the duty of this large majority favor ing the commission form to see that men above corruption, who are deeply interested in the welfare of the city, rather than personal gain, are chosen. If no effort is made to continue the demand for better city government none better will result for dependence will be placed solely upon the co nmi- sion form, whereas it is not the sys- tenn so much as those back of it who will accomplish it. It all depends up,.n the men selected and for them the voters are responsible. Having changed the plan of municipal government greater duty now rests upon the cftf- zenS.

 ARBOR AND BIRD DAY, and I direct the teachers in all our public schools to make it the occasion of explaining to their classes why this anniversary has been constituted and what it means.
 I urge also that the people of the state at lal ge give some thought, upon the day hereby appointed, to what they can do to promote the culture of trees ing that, small as Connecticut is, her geographical position, assuring a eli mate belonging partly to the north and partly to the south, brings within her territory more varieties of trees and birds than are found in any other state In the American Union.
 The congress which this month has come to close has passed law prepar- ed and ably advocated by one of the senators from this state, to promote the safety of birds in their annual flights of migration throughout the United States. Let the people of Con necticut give to this act not only their obedience. but their sympathetic SUD- port.

 The people of New England should be keenly alive to the ultimate effect upon their own fortunes of the present campaign against the railroads of New England carried on by the agitators.

 If you suffer with backache-have pains in the neck or sides-nervous or dizzy spells-a few doses of Crox- one will relieve the congestion and you will be surprised how quickly all kidney, bladder and rheumatic trou- bIes will disappear
 Croxone is different from all other remedies. It is not like anything else on earth ever used for the purpose It starts to work the minute you take it and relieves your suffering the very first time you use it. It is so prepared that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system with out results. You can secure an origin al package of Croxone at trifiing cost from any frst-cIass druggist, such as Lee & Osgood Co. All druggists are authorized to personally return the purchase price if Croxone should fail in 8 single case.

THEIR VIEW POINTS

 It makes some difference whose dog is kicked Chairman McCombs is dis

 duty off rice. and the profits from his
 200 acres are likely to vanish. He
 went to see the president about it.-
 Bridgeport Telegram.
 The report on the attempted bribery of Senator Hurley is weak and un
 satisfactory thing-nobody guilty and nobody innocent. Are men then to go about the state holding up three fin gers in the faces of senators and get away with il either way-whether the correlated proposition is accepted or rejected? God forbid. - Waterbury American.
 The senate will leave the matter of the Panama canal tolls to the presi- dent. and it is altogether probable that he will favor the repeal of the law passed by the last congress granting free tolls to American shipping. This in the opinion of many senators would be more readily obtained than the sub mission of the matter to arbitration and would be a short cut of the diff Standard.
 Jailbirds have been profiting by sim ulating falnting spells and the warden Of a large prison has been kept busy looking after them. His treatment of one who actually tainted and was re- vived with the aid of a little brandy started the epidemic; a change of treatment, substituting smelling salts for the brandy, stopped it. Perhaps the waning popularity of smelling salts in the novels of the day also accounts for the absence of fainting heroines.- Waterbury Republican.

 Regarding the return of MT. Taft
 to Yale. Dean Henry Wade Rogers of
 the Law school had some appreciatory
 remarks to make this week. He called attention to the fact that eX-PreSident
 Taft is not the first great American to
 devote part of his time to teaching after retirement from public life. but
 that never before had Yale been hon
 oTcd in a way similar to some other universities. Dean Rogers mentioned . number of distinguished publicistS. IT, 1923 James Kent. 50 years of age and obliged under the law of New York as 1t then stood to retire from the court of chancery. became professor of law in Columbia university At the close of the Civil war Robert E. Lee laid down the command of the con federate armies and became president of Washington and Lee university. Similarly, MT. Harrison lectured at Leland Stanford university and Grover Cleveland gave courses of lectures at Princeton. All Yale,'' he said re ioices at the coming of MT. Taft That it is a great thing for Yale to have a former president of the United States on it's teaching staff goes without say ing. That he will have a profound in fluence upon the student body and that that influence will be most beneficial and uplifting will be unQuestioned by anyone. Some such service as Joseph Story rendered the Harvard Law school when he accepted the Dane pro- fessorship of law MT. Taft can render to the Yale Law school The Harvard Law school had only one student when Story accepted the professOrship and the Yale Law school now has more students than Harvard had when Story left it. The Yale Law school already has it's standards established as high as the highest and has a dis staff of efficient teachers, hut in accepting the professorship of constitutional law in the Law school Air. Taft has increased greatly the prestige of the school. The men who are preparing for the practice of the will be most fortunate to have the l benefit of his instruction and to be brought into personal relations with l so great a teacher and so inspiring a 1 personality"

The spring football meeting and call for candidates for the university team brought out 60 men. and practice was begun at Yale field this week. Coach I<etcham outlined his plans by stating that more attention is to be given to the minor points of the game and that a man does not necessarily have to know how to play the game when he comes to college or even to make his freshman team. Walter Camp said that the Yale team needed individual work and good spirit. Coach Howard Jcnes emphasized the fact that no man will make the team who is not up in his lessons. Another thing is: Keep yourselves in good condition. When l coached here some years ago, man who had also coached here told me that one fellow who finally made the Yale team did not play up to the Yale standard He told me that he would go into this fellows room and find him smoking cigarettes when he was In training. If I ever find man who smokes in training he will never make the Yale team. The men who go out and at the first opportunity show us that they have the right spirit re the ones we want. My policy is to have the Yale team go against their oppo- rents with the intention of king them up at the very start. Let us go into the Harvard game next fall with that intention.
