-HosE in position to know are
unanimously predicting that
the 1913 State Fair will sur
pass anything of It's nature
ever before staged In Michigan by an
enormous margin. 1t will be Mich
gan's greatest agricultural and indus
trial exposition. All the pleasing fea
lures of last years Fair will be en-
phasized to a greater degree and new
ones introduced that cannot help but
meet with the sound Endorsement Of
progressive Michiganders. Fair week
will be from Sept. 10 to 20.
The educational efficiency of the Fair
will be elevated to far greater eNtcn!
than in previous years, and the enter
tanning and instructive standards will
, be higher
All of the big attractions are not
ready for announcement as yet, but
there is positive assurance that 1913
State Fair visitors will be furnished
with the most sensational and at the
same time most instructive entertain
ments ever exhibited In the west
There will be actual working demon
STATIONS at this years State Fair
, which will be of great practical value
to every class of people. These exhibit
lions will convey knowledge to thou
sands OF persons who could not posi-
bly, obtain il without the expenditure
of thousands of dollars.
No matter in which direction a Wis
itor cares to focus his view at the com
| ing Fair. he will observe something
worth seeing and thinking about. Ii
will be the states show window stock
ed with the resources of one OF the
richest commemorative in the Union.
100000 Premium List.
The premium list alone, that OF $780,
600. is in itself enough to justify the
success of the 1913 Fair. This amount
| is far in excess of that offered by any
similar institution Of the same size in
existence.
This huge sum OF money Will be de-
voted toward encouraging production
along the lines which will help solve
the many problems which confront
farmers and the business interests

which are dependent upon agricultural
productions.
1t is the resolve Of thoroughly Or
ganized and smooth working manage
ment to make the 1913 Fair powerful
factor in the Improvement of live
stock, farm efficiency and country
citizenship. Clean, substantial informa-
ton and entertainment for all classes
and all ages will be the lofty aim OF
those In charge Of Michigan's greatest
Fair.
The number OF exhibitors, which can
be taken as a good barometer OF
healthy growth, is now far ahead OF
last years array. With the premium
list just circulated the heads Of the
various departments are confident OF
bigger and better exhibits. Even this
early adequate space for exhibitors Ii

tide It will probably be in the next generation in the form of a reginasent of neurotics. hypochondriacs. neu1ns themics, insane and mentally unhal- anced people.
 Here is the kind of sanitary aa1- vice that is needed:
 Live with a lofty indifference 7to unseen. health board-horn dangers.
 "Go where your work takes you and trust in Providence to protect yoC1 while at work. Cultivate mental ser entity and equipoise. and banish fears anxiety dread and timidity from your minds If you follow these few and simple srules you will probably have the pleasure of attending the funerals of all the members of your local health board and of those who follow it's advice"
 If any person doubt that the pres ent movement to place the political doctor in charge of our schools means anything less than compulsory or state medicine with it's attendant evils of compulsory serum therapy let him read the following from an article in the New Yonk Times of May 27th, 1913:
 At joint meeting yesterday of the board of directors of the Mount Sinai Hospital and Training School for Nurses it was decided that all nurses, members of the house staff, orderlies, laundresses and attendants must be

Medical Inspection.

Mir. Editor: In proposing medical in speCtion of school children it would seem that the reasons advanced by the chief advocate of the scheme are en- drely insufficient to warrant us in in augura ting a measure of this kind. Nor is the attendant expense the chief ob- jection that can be urged against it.
 Again, the fact that Norwich is the only town of the size in the state with out medical inspection should carry no weight in considering the question, as Dr. Cassidy makes no attempt to school children in the past has not been equal to any if not superior to most towns in Connecticut. There are valid reasons for believing that the introduction and prosecution of the proposed innovation will in the long run result in grea ter injury than ben eft to the young and the subject Is so gravely important that cOnscien- tious educators and parents should not permit alluring sophistries or gilt tering generalities based on unsound premises to prevent them making careful and impartial study of all sides of the question Few facts have been demonstrated so conclusiveIy as tfTat fear is one of the greatest promoters of disease. This is q fact so well es- tabnshed that the ablest and most scientific physicians constantly strive
  ease.
 Furthermore. what is true of the baleful effects of fear on the adult mind Is doubly true of it's effects on the plastic and highly imaginative mind of the child.
 At no time In life do we receive such lasting impressions as in childhood and at time Is fear more potent for evil than then. The disastrous ef- fleets of creating alarm in the mind of the child and having those dread la den thoughts centered on his body or some organ of the body cannot be over estimated. The evil resulting from the compulsory dissemination of fear that must necessarily follow the pro- posed examination. wouIc greatly over- eaianee the good claimed for 1t, In- stances ara not wanting to show that with highly sensitive children the doc tors dietun has seriously Impaired the health and even proved fatal to tho youthful victim

ROAD BUILDING.

From coast to coast there is no mat ter Of more importance before the people than that of good roads It is something in which every city and town is deeply interested. The bet terment of the highways is as vital to the users thereof and the communities as is the bringing of the trans portarion lines to the highest degree of perfec- ton. The section Of the country which fails to give attention to it's roads fails to note the march of progress.
 In the building of modern roads however. too much emphasis cannot be placed upon the necessity of build ing we'll It is far cheaper in the end to construct a road which will stand the wear and tear of proper traffic, through putting into it time, material and attention. than to build a fine look ing piece of road at small cost, which will require a similar outlay within a few years. All is not gold that gilt ters and it might be said that all mod ern road construction is not wise road building just because it looks good when it is completed. Experience has shown that the nearest to permanency the roads of today can be built, the cheapest and best they will prove in the end
 Too close attention cannot be paid to suitability of material Any stone does not make good roads. It must be suitable to withstand the conditions of traffic and climate to which it will be subjected. Such with the requisite binder and the proper bed and con struction. all enter into the securing of permanent roads, and ii is the per manent road which gives the best ser vice and the best economy test

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Ut would be we'll if sanitariums recognized the effects of fear in other branches of public health work. Un- happily they do not. and it is part of the work of public health officials to excite, fOment. stimulate, encourage and spread abroad state of fear and anxiety
 By hot house methods of culture an unreasoning dread of contagious dis eases has been artificially raised and encouraged until 1t exists to an enor- nous extent,
 Invisible, mortal dangers are adver- tised to turk in the dust, in water. in milk and in air, until the modern child is brought up in an atmosphere of terror at deadly, unseen enemies and modern man is walled in by invisible lethaI microbes that cease not day or night, to threaten his health and his life.
 There are few poisonous drugs as powerful in their effects as fear; it can drive vast volume of blood from the periphery to the internal organs blanching the skin and congesting the spleen, liver and other organs. It can alter the volume, rate and character of the pulse in a few seconds until the very life is threatened. It can produce a copiOuS, eXhausting sweat and it can dry the mouth and throat until the subject is voiceless. It can pdTaiNZe all or the voluntary muscles so that it's subject when there is most need to escape cannot move a single muscle.
 All of these obvious and profound effects it can produce in less than two minutes It there any drug outside of fresh, strong hydFOcyanic acid that can equal if in the rapidity and extent of it's effects? Is there any morbiffc mtcrobe as potent and as sudden in action or as destructive in effect as this? But fear has no microbe; it's cause cannot be demonstra ted by the microscope and SO forsooth, it's in- furious effects are ignored by health boards. In order to avoid a quite neg glible risk of getting typhoid, in order to secure one from smallpox, that does not threaten, in order to protect one from pestilence that is imaginary fear life depressing, health destroying, peace shattering fear, is spread broadcast over the land. It invades every ham let. 1t enters every home; everyone is urged to be afraid to eat natural fruit, to drink natural water or milk to breathe the very air or heaven. There will be a penalty for this false teach tng-as sure as the rise of the next

TIME FOR UNITY.

Back of every good movement. and back of every desirable attainment the need of strong united action is clearly understood Unity is the keynote for every successful undertaking and the necessity of such should he realized by the republicans of Norwich in the coming town election Whatever the efforts to diminish the party strength endeavors are simply contributing in the democratic ticket.
 Through party strife and internal trouble the republicans have been aid ing in the election of the opposing can didates long enough. II is time that there should be a getting together of the factions and instead of pulling apart for the best interests of the town and the democrats. pull together and put into operation the principles of town management which will result to the greatest good of the greatest num- her. The breach in the republican ranks may be no greater. though pos sibly more open than that which to- day exists in the local democratic party. All that is required ia to stand together in the support of the candi- dates who are in every way qualified to give the town q businesslike eco- nomica1 and efficient administration which is the ambition and purpose of the republican candidates from first to last, and victory will wait upon them. With taxes mounting skyward the time is ripe for united action.

WILL TT AFFECT THE PRIcE7

Whenever coal is mentioned it brings to mind a subject which is of deep interest to a widespread body of consumers The announced declaration Of the Pennsylvania railroad that it intends to dispose of it's coal proper ties and relieve itself of the coal com pany which 1t controls and the almost simultaneous statement from the gov ernnent that it is planning to press it's action against the companies which control the coal market, concern a matter of intense public interest The progress in each instance will be close Iy followed looking for good results The action of the railroad is in ac- cordance with the law which demands the separation of railroads from such properties. As one of the nine roads which control the anthracite coal mar ket it is insufficient to break the com bine though it may have a good in fiuence upon the others. The action. howeve is aDparent1y an anticipation of the inevitable.
 What the consumer is the most in terested in. however, is the probable effect of such dissolution upon the price of the commodity. If coal bar ons continue to control the market. whether it is through railroad or sep arate ownership. there seems to be little chance of the man who does the paving receiving much in the way of relief. The result of the test will be to show whether the consumer is go- ing to receive some consideration in the game. or whether the pursuit of justifiable coal prices must go on for ever.

DEMOCRATS AND CIVIL SERVICE.


 Just how far the democrats are pre- pared te ge ia the eurtailment of the civil service Is dffIieuIt of estimation, buG if their effDrts in behalf of lessen ing its powers can be used as an indi- cation of what they hope to accomplish during their term. 1t is plainly indi- oated that they are prepared to go the limit, throw merit and ability to the winds and build up a strong spoils sys- tenn.
 The endeavors which are being made for the avoidance of civil service in the collection of the income tax strike a savage blow when it is made pos siGle not Gnly to aGD0int employees for such work without an examination, bat tc have them do the work for which civil service men are nov required. An even nlore iniquitGus prcyi- sion is that which allows the ap- pointnent of civil service men to such work when by such designation they must lose their civil service stat us.
 This with the provisions which have been added to the appropriation bill taking deputy marshals and revenue collectors out of civil service is not only decidedly unfair but is in direct opposition to the democratic platform which declares that t'civl service shall be honestly and rightly enforced, to the end that merit and ability shall be the standard of appointment and pro- motion rather than service rendered to a political party" The action of the democrats, regardless of their platform indicates that promises are things to be forgotten rather than carried out. It is to be hoped that the better judg- ment will prevail before any such schemes can be put into action

 eFor the last few years the nurses in the hospital have been asked to vol unteer for immunization but few have responded; now it is compulsory.
