Letters From the Peo pie
The Game Laws.
To the Editor of The News t:

To the Editor of The News;
 read the article i'll your Oct. issue about the game laws. l cannot help thinking about the difference of 1858 and 1913 in regard to fishing, hunting, etc. lived in Salisbury in 1858 and used to think what glorious land of liberty we ill America had. was induced to think this by reading books and history, aud hearing people tell of the conditions and laws they lived under ln other countries. And it surely was land of freedom then. A boy could fish, hunt or trap at will those days. With berries and nuts it was the same thing, no one seemed to care. There was no fish or game laws then that I ever heard about. But it is entirely different now. One dare hardly look at trout stream in these days. If I went fishing now I would carry rule SO as to measure each fish and have my license pasted on my hat. Now l wish to say that in the beginning of things don [ believe this state of affairs was the intention of the creator, for think when He conceived and brought into existence this great and glorious world, at the time He caused the berries and nuts i'll the woods as we'll as the fish in the rivers and lakes to bring forth, it was in- tended for the benefit of all mankind.

Golnp-Gone 1

On clearing the harbor the ship ran into a nasty, half-pitching, choppy sea, which was especially noticeable as the twenty-five passengers at the captain s table sat down to dinner.
 II hope that all twenty-five of you will have pleasant trip" said the cap tain, as the soup appeared. "and that this little assembly of twenty-four will be much benefited by the voyage. 1 look upon these twenty-two smiling faces as a father upon his family for l am re. sponsible for the safety of this group of seventeen. hope that all fourteen of you will join me in drinking to merry trip. believe that we eight are most congenial and I applaud the judgment which chose these three persons for my table. You and I. my dear sir, are Here, steward, clear away those dishes and bring me the fish. "-New York Globe.

WALTER PRlCHARD EATON
 EDITOR.

Stockbridge is to have a little com munity paper-not newspaper, but kind of a focus for village thoughts, town planning and in general for the stimulation of local pride and the in crease of local self consciousness. It is to be monthly publication, and Walter Prichard Eaton will edit it. The possi- bilities of such a paper are many.-Pitts field Eagle.
 The possibilities of any paper, with Walter Prichard Eaton as editor, are not only many but large. The Stock bridge venture ought to be ripper"

NEW LEAGUE HEAD.

The election of Mrs. Frank McCarty as president of the Canaan Equal Fran chfse League was a wise choice, Tn view of Mrs. Hitchcock's refusal to accept a reelection. Mrs. McCarty has been a consistent and active worker in the League since it's organization, and is we'll equipped, intellectually and temper aInensally, for the presidency.
 It must be said for Mrs. Hitchcock, however, that to her indefatigable efforts is due the existence of the League. She was the pioneer suffragist to move In the direction of organization. When she called a meeting of ladies. at her home, 8 couple of years ago, for the pur- pose of considering the matter of form ing League, the proposition was looked As askance. The ladies went, neverthe- less. just to see what they might see, snd observe what might happen. It was a novel and sensational idea, and 1hey viewed it as sort of curiosity. It is not unlikely that some went to scoff :; but the upshot was that every mother s daughter of them remained to approve, endorse and join. and that the Hitchcock meeting was the real beginning of the Canaan Equal Franchise League.
 And in the final summing up, when the cause shall have triumphed. and women vote the whole blessed slate, from president down to dog catcher. the sruthful historianess must in justice make special note of the fact that Mrs. Hitchcock mothered the Canaan League and directed its first steps.

THE BROADER VIEW.

Let's rise above the petty things
 That often prove a snare, And blind us to the gladsomeness

To correct an erroneous impression. There are at present writing two unmar- ried survivors of the famous Bachelors Club, which, as the esteemed Hartford Times asserts, made life tolerable in Winsted twenty years ago ;'' and MT. F. E. Capewell. now of Hartford. bids fair to be the sole and only survivor after the 20th of this monih. The Times recalls that among the colleagues in that worthy organization were Richard T. Higgins, now chairman of the Public Utilities Commission, and Colonel Vel hngton B. Smith, the silver tongued soldier-orator of Litchfield County" But there were other notable members. including Referee-in- Bankruptcy F. B.

Jumpers Of the Sea.

Many of the inhabitants Of the sea
are good jumpers. and some have be-
come famous. Among them should be
mentioned the tarpon or silver king, a
huge fish with scales that CLEAN like
silver. In the Pacific waters the tuna,
an ally of the horse mackerel. is noted
for its leaps. Sometimes school
sweeps up the coast. and the powerful
fish. often weighing 800 pounds, are
seen in the air In every direction. They
dart like an arrow. turn gracefully five
or six feet In the air and come down
keeping the water for acres in a foam
and, if not the greatest, they are Ger
tainly the most graceful of the jump
ers Of the sea.

This well we'll known quartet, which
is changed in every part from the origi-
nal company, seems to bear charmed
existence. Over and over sickness,
business, marriage or other causes
have created gap in the company,
and over and over the vacancy filed,
and always the Meistersingers created
the same enthusiasm, always the same
big hit.
Some companies seem hoodooed- No
matter the care in their selection, nc
matter the ingenuity in their makeup
the result is the same, and there seems
no hope. Years ago Frederick Howard
that prince OF coaches, organized the
Meistersingers They were just anna
teurs, with fresh, clear voices and
set of organ chimes. Every hope was
more than fulfilled, every prophecy
justified. They swept the country. II

years, of that company. Years wen
by. Changes were made almost ever
year, but the result was the same
Howard and his coaching and his goo'
Judgment as to voices and the chime
never failed to score the big hit.
Now comes Holmes Cowper, tina
most wonderful of tenors, STANDING
sponsor for the present Meistersingers
But, best of all, it is not an amateu
company nor an inexperienced one
With Cowper's training and coachin
added, it is the greatest Meistersinger
of them all.
