Dr. Sykes Speaks in Interest of WOm
 ems College
Connecticut College Association for
 windham County Formed

Dr. Frederick H Sykes, president of the Connecticut College for Women, i has spoken at series of meetings this week in the interests of the new col lege. pr.

Huizinga introduced Dr. Sykes who told the audience of the aims {, ideals and needs of the new college of which he is president
 Wednesday afternoon number of Woodstock people met at Mrs. Shep- pard's bungalow 10 hear pr. Sykes. Much enthusiasm for the new college was aroused. With the idea that the women of Windham County should do something definite toward building I up the institution, a Connecticut Col lege Association for Windham Coun- ty was organized, with Mrs. J. F.. sheppard as local chairman for Wood stock and Miss Rosamond Danielson, oh ,Nff Io tion is to raise funds to build dorma- tory to be called Windham Hall. A subscription was started and plans were formed to canvass the whole country that every town may be repre- sented in the building of this hall.
 Wednesday evening pr. Sykes spoke in Putnam in the Congregational chapel. MT. Buell. also spoke, telling briefly of the colleges need of funds for building. Owing to MT. Plants generous endowment of S1 ,000,000 for maintenance, ithe expense of carrying on the work after it is started will be taken care of. The present problem of the trustees is to raise funds to con- struct the buildings. At the close of the meeting the idea of the Conneeti cut College Association for Windham County was taken up. Mrs. w. L. Beard was appointed local chairman, and Mrs. Ida Kennedy, treasurer.
 Dr. Sy kes has been invited to speak in Danielson some time next month. It is hoped that every town in the county may have the opportunity of hearing him. Any inquiries in regard to the Connecticut College Association for Windham County may be sent to Mrs. John E. Sheppard, k. D. ?, Put nam.

Army Worms Headed This Way
Secretary tiealey Tells How 10 Fight
 Them

Them
 Farmers in Putnam are alarmed at the approach of the army of worms that is coming gradually nearer and nearer to the borders of the town. They have appeared as far north as Brook lyn. The worms suddenly appear in millions and over night destroy large areas of oats and corn. After niae days the worms change into a state reSem- bling moth and fly on. The army has worked it's way from New London slightly to the westward and there k a possibility that they will pass Put nam by on the west side. The follow ing article from Secretary Healey of the State Board of Agriculture, tells how 10 fight the pest;
 "The crops most liable To be attack ed are the oat and milet. The damage 10 these if attac ked may be greatly les scned if prompt measures are taken to eradicate the worms. As soon as first seen, the oats or millet should be cut and kept stirred up as much as possi- bic, using a tedder if possible. As soon as they are fit to go te the barn or stack, shake them well and remove. Then prepare mixture of bran, paris green in the proportion of ? pounds of bran to one pound of paris green, mix ing thoroughly using enough nolasSes and water.to make il mashey. Sow this broadcast over the field infested. A second application may be neeessa- ". If there is field adjacent,to to or near by of corn or some other crop likely to be attacked il should be pro- tecled by blowing a furrow around ii, going back and forward with the blow five or six times in the same furrow both ways. This tends te make the ditch deep and more abrupt with the dirt finely pulverized, making it hard | CT for the worms to get a foothold in crawling over it. It is sometimes ne- eessary to make two of these ditches l about ten feet apart. When they are | prepared, the bottom of the ditch or l ditches should be strewn with the | mixture as before directed.

Object of Education.

The entire object of true education is to make people not merely do the right things, but enjoy the right things; not merely industrious, but to love industry-not merely learned, but to love knowledge-no merely pure, but to love purity-not merely just, rut to hunger and thirst after justice.-Ruskin.

Collisions i'll FOgS.

1t is very reassuring to know that
two ocean steamers can come to col
lision in fog with SO little damage
to either that both may proceed on
their way with most of their passen-
gers unaware of the mishap. 1t l. not
reassuring however, to learn that
such a collision has occurred The
blow the Titanic received from the
iceberg and that which the Storstad
administered to the Empress OF Ire
land produced as little shock, it
seems, as the Pretoria's glancing blow
near the bow Of the New York. As it
was. the hull of the New York was
badly damaged, and probably the
necessary repairs to the other vessel
will require much time. The need OF
better means for the protection of
human life i'm case of fog at sea ID
just as surely indicated by the happy
escape of the New York and the
Pretoria from destruction as it was
by the recent terrible disaster on the
st. Lawrence.
The one startles the whole world,
excites a tumult OF emotional com
ment, leads to protracted investiga-
ton. But the inquiry into the harm
less collision Of Saturday should be
as careful and as fruitful as that
which began Monday at Montreal
New York Times.
