THE sEAMEN,s BILL

The course of the seamen's bill in- dicates that it is in uncharted waters and meeting with opposition of a for midabIe character because of some of the drastic provisions which it con- tains With safety as it's aim it plans to go so far beyond the mark that it stands to do much harm to the all ready discouraged shipping of this country.
 An important effect upon this piece of proposed legislation, if it does not put an end to it is expected from the greater safety at sea and on the great lakes as provided for in the agree ments signed at the international con ference on safety of life at sea at Lon don and participated in by the inn portant nations of the world. The requirement. of wireless equipment by the London conference, one of the things omitted by the seamen's bill, promises that that shall be mandatory rather than optional, as the result of the notable cases where wireless has prevented the worst of disasters.
 The great objection to the LaF'ol- Iette bill comes from the fact that the endeavor is to overdo rather than to attain the much desired safety. Even
 upon a matter of so much importance reason cannot be overlooked in Q mad rush for new laws and regulations, for that which is liable to bring about the greatest good and cause the least harm will follow the proper thought and consideration of the demands of the situation. as ittshoalId- There must be safety and sanity in legislation as well as in sea1nanShip.

Statement By Il. D. Bill.

MT. Editor: l beg you to allow me space to make a statement and some corrections regarding an article which recently appeared in your paper in re- ference to a somewhat unfortunate occurrence in my office, thereby gain ing a considerable circulation in Nor wich and vicinity, where many of my dearest friends and loved ones reside. Out of respect to their feelings, and in justice to myself. I want to say that l am not in the business of promoting a lottery" neither am 1 printing or circulating lottery tickets"
 The thing which happened might oc- cur in any job printing office, viz.-A copy was brought in of certificate purporting to be a Mutual Cooperat- i've Association" without the least re- ference to benefits, premiums or prizes of any kind whatever, but it appeared that the authorities had been loolkinR for the promoters, and traced them VJ my office and swooped down on me, confiscating the printed matter, claim ing it to be a lottery scheme" My presses or anything connected with my plant was not disturbed, and I was ac corded all due courtesy, and detained but a very few minutes.

The stir in the great white house. the stir of the coming and going phy- sicians. of one trained nurse relieving the other, of eager inquiries and anx- ious answers,-had given place to a pervading silence-as though the still. speechless mystery shut up in the front room downstairs had leaked through the cracks of the closed par Tor doors.
 It was so early in the morning that everyone in the house was asleep. EV- eryone, that is except the wan, shad- owy woman in dressing gown and slip pers tip-toeing down the front stairs. She could not sleep. She could not do anything; not even grieve. Could only dully long to get away; away from the relatives who put their arms about her and wePt on her shoulder; from the solicitous friends who tried to comfort her in words that had no meaning; from faithful, tiresome old Martha, who followed her about, coax ing her to eat.
 And she had finally made good her escape, at last could go into the closet room and be alone-with him
 In stealthy haste she slid open the sliding doors-a narrow slit just wide enough to slip through.
 The curtains of the front windows of the high ceiling room were closely drawn, but through unshuttered win dows at the rear pale light crept in and detached from blurred shadows in the corners definite, clear-cut shadows of the familiar furniture-and the un- familiar long, narrow object standing in the center under the massive chandelier, with its heavy cut-glass pendants.
 As she stole up and stood beside the coffin the hot band that pressed her head frightened, and for an instant her throat closed in choking ache.
 But the pain was purely physical. As she looked down at the still form lying there she had no sense of sorrow all the other things that had happened during the past 24 hours.
 After the first shock of concentra- ton, she even found it difficult to keep her thoughts from wandering,-as in church on Sundays they'll wander from the sermon to the people in the pews.
 Only now instead of style in hats it was the different fashions of the flow CTS heaped everywhere about her that distracted attention. The pillow of tube-roses and hot house buds that came from the office the great sheat of tall white lilies sent by the members of his club; the priceless bunch of orchids like a cluster of wonderful creamy butterflies on the wing, that had been cabled from Paris; dozens upon dozens of roses, and carnations and lilies of the valley, that friends had

THE STATE REFoRMAToRY.

There was really nothing unexpected in the declaration of the directors of the state reformatory that defects have been found in the laws which govern that institution and that changes could be made which would be beneficial in carrying out the pur- pose thereof. With all such institu- tions perfection is to be gained through experience and the really for tunate thing in convection with the Cheshire reformatory is that it's han dicaps are being uncovered early, that it's period of greater usefulness and help to misguided youths can be the sooner brought to the desired state of efficiency.
 The important fact in connection with this refornatory and it's work, is that it has been established and put into use. Whatever it's shortcomings may be it is evidenced that its di- rectors are determined that 1t shall render the highest service, and there fore result in the greatest good for the ones who are found to deserve it's training. The recognition of it's de- fects at this early period in its his tory gives ample indication that it is intended that it shall be maintained at a standard in keeping with it's name.
 There is every reason to believe that the reformatory is going to render great benefit to the state. It is the institution where the first offenders are either going to take advantage of an opportunity to mend their ways, or refuse the chance. Whatever the result the state is dischaEgfng an inn portant duty, and whatever defects exist in the working out of the many problems they must of necessity re- ceive proper attention.

DOES IT PAY9

By the fall and death of Lieut. Post, United States army aviator, attention is again attracted to the large number of deaths which have followed the pursuit of aviation In this instance as in many others both outside as well aS in the army circles, the aviator had been attempting to establish new record and from the figures indi- cated by the barograph he had sue ceeded in getting to new altitude for hydroaeroplanes; but he was unable to return to the starting point alive. Just what occurred to upset his cal culatlons and bring about his untimely end may never be known but this sixth fatality in the army aviation corps all of which are likewise unex- plained indicates most plainly the ex- tstence of a danger or dangers against which little or no corrective progress is being made.
 Lieut.. Posts effort on the day of his death was directed towards the es- rabllshment of g new record, an ac- confplishnent which meant the con- tribution of less to aviation than to his personal attainments. There remains much to be done in aviation in the way of insuring safety in flight but unfortunately too little attention is being paid to that necessity. Lieut.. Post was out for a record, which hon or 1t would seem he Is entitled to: but he has lost his life and deprived the department of a valuable aviator It was at a tremendous cost that he gained that high altitude and yet his sacrifice has actually done nothing Tor aviation Does it pay seems to be fully answered.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Knowledge.

Knowledge Is valuable as & key to action and it comes too late if the time for action is past. The list that shows you the rock on which your ship has split is not of much use or consolation; the light that warns you to keep away is that which does the true service. There are many such lights, if We will allow them to lead us.
 There is one thing that we can do after our disaster; we can erect a ing to others. Our own spoiled life or broken fortune may be a danger mark; this is certainly turning it's wreck to some use. If one marred life, one ruined career, can save a hundred others from sharing it's fate or can save only two or three others, some blessing has come out of evil; the good of the larger number has been insured by the loss and suffer ings of one. But if unselfish service is our aim, there is no need to fall in order to show others a dangerous spot; the way of others will not be smoother because mapped out by shipwrecks.
 The greatest helps in life are not those who have fallen. those who have suffered shipwreclSs. though they may be those who have escaped from f1ercest danger and have fought their may not be those who have always been innocent; if any such are to be found but they are certainly not those who have been saturated through and through with vice or who have learned only a sham honor by failing in dishonesty.

A TRIBUTE FROM HIS PAL

[ why couldn't she be left alones-nave a few minutes peace with her deaul A blurred buzzing lightly touched upon the silence in the waiting hall The electricity had run out.

THE THREE R'S.

It is by the results that the merits of the public school system are judged and it is thus evident that there should be no relaxation in the maintenance of the schools at a high standard. and no matter how good they may be. it is justified position that improvement is possible.
 Schools have a common interest in
 every city or community and the i'm portance of preparing the proper foun-
 dation for the building of whatever
 education may later result cannot
 be too strongly emphasized. Despite
 the fact that great improvements have
 been made in schools there still exists
 the necessity of concentration of at
 tention on the three R's as much as in any distant past. How vitally the
 school committee of Boston considers
 such fundamentals is indicated in it's
 report when it says that it has Tong
 felt that one of the most important matters to which it's most earnest and careful attention should be directed is the raising of the elementary schools to a higher standard of efficiency, and the teaching of the fundam entals of education, more especially the three
 R's, more thoroughly, more practically and more successfully than they have ever been taught before; to make sure that each boy and each girl shall, upon leaving the elementary schools,
 be able to express his thoughts clearly l and intelligently, both by spoken and written word; to spell correctly, write 1 Iegibly and perform quickly and ac- curately the simpler processes of arithmetic that are in common use" There is everything in proper start and thus far there has been provided no substitute which will produce the results that can be attributed to the ] thorough and efficient teaching of the three R's and Boston isn't alone in l that belief

WISE ACTION.

There is reason for approval of the plan to give Col. Goethals a free hand in the administration of the Ca nal Zone as the first governor. When 1t comes to organizing the necessary force for the maintenance of the gov ernment there, there is none better equipped to select men to meet the requirements than the one to whom the governorship has been entrusted. Not only is he thoroughly familiar with the construction of the canal with all it's details but 1t is import ant that the same high class service be obtained in the conduct of that sec- tion after the change.
 It is readily recognized that this is the place where the best service should be rendered. There should be no mistakes through the faulty organ ization. Efficiency has existed through the peried the canal has been under construction and it is import ant that 1t should be continued. If Is not the time or the place for the Injection of politics and under the plan adopted politicians will have no part in the distribution of the jobs

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Recently the weather has had a ten- dency to cut down the average of homtcides committed by the joy rider, drunk or sober, but there has been no evidence furnished that the species has any desire to reform, or that it will not be obnoxious as ever, when the going is good again. Reformation, If 1t comes at all, will have to come from without rather than from within, for the hardened joy rider is hopeless in his mania.-Ansonia Sentinel.
 Those who have looked over the ground are inclined towards MT.

That Problem Under the x-Ray.

nat FTODiGTl OEiOSt' AitC nay
 MT. Editor: MT. Talcott's reply shows that he is advancing in his apprehen- sion of the nature of the problem-he adds one more dot and another letter to his solutions. This juStifieS our suggestion that he be afforded another chance; but what puzzles his readers is to know how without any previous calculation, he is enabled to place his dots. The placing of the dots, giving distances, of course is what is asked for by the problem. This done, noth- ing further is needed. Without, at present, using our instrument on the two. arithmetics he quotes, we will again adjust it for his diagram. If your types, MT. Editor. are correct, you make MT. Talcott contradict him. self in one and the same paragraph of his explanation, viz: He questions thus: And how do I know that the messenger went back two spaces while the front went forward only one to E2 Simply because the messenger TraVeIed twice as fast as the army. And now do I know that when no relative rates of speed are given in the problem Simply because the diagram shows that the messenger travelled from E to D two spaces. while the army was moving only one in going from D to k. To these two questions, echo also properly replies How" For, if no rate is involved in the proposition it. self. how does he place his dots? And if the rate of the messenger be twice as fast-whtch he affirms it to be then this shows that when the army arrived at the end of it's march of 2S miles, the messenger, traVellng twice as fast (56 miles). had only caught up with the head of the line-with no time left to return to the rear. This is as it appears through our lenses, and even without spectacles. Hence we reiterate our former suggestion for another trial by Mir. Talcott.
