The 154th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns occurs on Jan. 25th, but will be celebrated by the Scotch men of Norwich and vicinity and their guests with a banquet and merry making on the eve of the 24th
 Robert Burns heids 9 warm place in the hearts of all Seotehmen, because of his love of his country and his rollicking spirit, which have made his poems and his songs heuseheld words in his own and other lands.
 Burns was 8 Scotch farmers son, the oldest of seven children. and he had to shift early for himself and to make hls way as best he could. He was of a social disposition and festered an ambition to de something in the world He was in deep sympathy with the common people, and the fact that he recognized that ito the sens and daughters of labor and poverty little love adventures were matters of a most serious natuPe-the ardent hope, the stolen interview, the tender fafew ell- are the greatest and most delicious parts of their enjeyments,' prompted him to attune his seres to the hearts of the common people, and the sin, eerity and pleasure with which they

 He was in his 2ad year when his father died and he and his brother took a farm to keep the family to- gether. At 25 he had faced two bad and pFofitiess seasons, but had come to be known in his neighboFhoed as a maker of rhymes, and in the next 12 years he eonsuDlnated his work, elas- ing it at the age of 37.
 Perhaps no better pen picture was ever made of Robert Burns than this: Like his native and lonely hills, he was subject to every blast, and exc posed naked and bare to every tenn pest.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN
- Vibrations. s.

It you'd seem that jn time every thing will be reduced to vibrations
 All the tonal quality of your friend s voice is merely a matter of altering vibrations, You can get all his per senality through the trembling needle of the phonograph or the diaphragm of the telephone.
 The sounds of the organ, piano. harp horn, waterfall, trolley car and rail road train. respectively, are only mat ters of vibrating the ear drums this or that way.
 Light is another form of vibration, of so great frequency that the ear cannot catch it, only the eye.
 Heat is merely vibration. The feel of velvet. wood. stone, metal, wool and 50 on are no more nor less than Vari- ant vibrations.
 So are favers and oders. So are electricity, radio activity and every physical and chemical potency.
 And shall we go en, and say that thought and emotion, love, conscience and all such spiritual things are also but vibrations, sensed by finer organs than the eye and ear?
 Is life Itself but a vibration, and death it's stilling?
 Is the universe but the song of the atoms?

(,ranterry Isles Me. - My baby's body was completely covered with eczema. He was about six weeks old when it started. It came on his forehead first, then spread all over his scalp so that every bit of his hair ,arna out The eczema came in big blotches on his face and neck. which after few days all ran into a solid mass. He used to rub them and sometimes he would make the blood come. It was in the scaly form on hls body. but his head and face seemed to be-a crusty mass.

 THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL.

When congress gets ready to act upon the appropriation for memorial for Abraham Lincoln it should con slider well the form which it takes and make it a substantial and lasting monument to the memory of the great Lincoln. There are two plans under consideration and far which many ad- vocates are at work all realizing the justification of the movement, butsop- posed as to the form which 1t should take. In the plan for the erection of g Greek temple on the banks of the Potomac river at Washington seems to center the greatest support, though the idea of establishing an ornamental burg receives the advocacy of many interests. which are attracted to 1t from other than the real purpose for which the memorial is proposed.
 In the erection of such a memorial there arises the important question as to whether it is not the part of wis dom to work for peFmanency in the form which it should take rather than to make an extensive outlay in de- velopment work which must from time to time require large outlays to keep it an object of annual expense and de- steadily changing. A large temple would when completed be a finished product on which there would be lit tie wear CT tear, but of the highway such could not he said. It would steadily need attention, and when it is considered from the standpoint of a land promotion scheme. it loses the real basic object for which the me- moriai is intended.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Favors Auto Ambulance.

MT. Editor: Observing the interest being aroused among the people of Norwich and vicinity. and the express sions of opinion favorable to an auto ambulance, l wish to say that 1 am heartily in favor of the proposition.
 It will give us more rapid trans ferring of the sick and injured Ia few minutes sometimes deciding between life and death) within our town; and will be of untold benefit in bringing the sick and injured from surround ing and distant towns to the Baekus hospital.
 I believe express the general sen timent of the physicians of the city in the hope that in the near future Norwich may have an up to-d date auto ambulance.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND.

Greater demand for the meats and
 breadstuffs of this country by it's own people is well illustrated by the de- crease which has taken place in the amount which is being sent to other countries in comparison with previous periods. and it stands out in striking prominence as one of the avenues to which careful attention should be given for increased production. It is the home market which should be supplied first, but in meeting that demand the supply falls far short of the extensive foreign market which has in previous years enabled this country to do a large export trade.
 It is particularly evident that the supply is unequal to the demand, in which lies much of the cause for the hlgher prices, when it is realized that the value Of cattle exported last year was but three million against four teen million in the previous year and fl million in 1904. CT anly eight per cent of what was exported eight years earlier. The dirninutien in the cattle supply of the United States is also ap- parent iE the fact that the ina porta- lions of cattle in the year just ended amounted to over 2G0,000 in number and their value to over five million while the number eight years ago was but 16,06G and the value s31G, ofe In five years there is q decrease in the number ef cattle on farms fFem f2 1-2 to 5s million the first of this year.

TURKEYS SURRENDER.

After long, tedious conference in which every means possible was taken to overcome the inevitable Turkey has ct last agreed to th 2 terms of the allies and the end of the war is in sight. From the start to the finish 1t has been a hard struggle in the interest of better conditions in Euro pean Turkey, which had Turkey lived up to her agreement and given the relief in accordance with her promises by removing the iron hand of oppfes- sion, would still be under Turkish rule with chances of it continuing for some. time to come. Turkey relied upon her reputation as a fighting nation and has lost ingierfously and in her defeat is fortunate in being able to save Geastaatineple- Reluctantly did she agree to the surrender of Adrianople which fortified city she clung to with desperation until the renewal of tho war was upon her. By her action. even though humi1iating, she has pur- sued & proper course and saved many thousands of lives which would have otherwise been sacrificed in a hopeless fight.
 From the time the armistice was signed Turkeys position has been that of the defeated army She has put up as bold and pretentious a front as possible, but 1t was evident that the allies were entitled to and would eventually get what they demanded. Now that the tinae has arrived when she realizes 1t, the terms of peace should be quickly adjusted, the dis tr1bution of the speiis made and the countries given a speedy chance to recover from the terrific losses they have suffered and to share in the ben ehts which have long been anticipated l and which should follow. It will take 1 time but the future for that section l of Europe looks brighter than ever. 1

I tions that everything was going on 1 very smoothly in the rowing depart 1 ment at Yale, the report was that both { the university and freshman crews were travelling fast and smoothly. The rowing committee had decided that as | the new stroke and system had not had tune enough to develop properly, it would allow the university crew to row but one race, and that with Har- yard. However, they were willing to test the new system in a race between the freshman crew and the Princeton freshman crew. In this race Yale was Henley at Philadelphia there were five crews, and the Yale second university crew barely gained fourth place.
 The rowing outlook at New Haven lost much of it's rosy aspect. The row ing committee invited everyone and anyone with 9. knowledge of rowing to come an see how things were being carried ont. The result was a con- fusion of ideas. and in order to clear matters R. J. Cook was put in charge of the university eight. Two weeks before the races it was quite evident that Harvard would again be success full

 Another prank which resulted dis astrousIy for a Vale senior was the sending in of a false alarm from a fire College streets early last Friday morn ing by Edmund R.

Pendleton outfan them, and thought to escape by hiding under d pile of boards in a building that was under construction nearby. But the the aid of a policeman he was ferreted out and for four days he was lodged in a cell at the New Haven jail, refusing the offer of friends to supply his $i,f00 bail. In the police court this week he made a frank confession, said that an ungovernable impulse drove him to pull the box. and in eenseaenee was fined $20o and costs and discharged. Pendleton is working his way through college, and a relative paid his fine.
