tried to cross in front of him, when
he thought sure the driver would hold
up until he had passed. When he saw
that this was not the drivers intention
it was too late to avoid collision.
Several passengers in the car were
cut by flying glass and bruised when
thrown violently to the floor. Only

AUTO LAWS.

It. is seldom that session of the general assembly in recent years pass eS without some efforts to improve the automobile laws. This has existed to such an extent that it has been de- clared that there are too many laws, or too little enforcement of those that already cucumber the statute books.
 At the present time Secretary of State Phillips. who has had much to do with the automobile laws, by req sen of his office, considers that much improvement could be made if there was a personal examination of each and every candidate applying for an operators license. The object of such Is for the elimination of the great amount of reckless driving too fre- lueltly displayed and which is the c2uHe for a large proportion of the automobile accidents and fatalities It s possible that MT. Phillips could de- v.6e some method whereby the future conduct Of a. driver is going to be in- GceteI by the display of careful driv- Eg while he is taking his examina- ion, but unless he can there seems to Do HEtlo bettermept in such a plan. t might serve to keep down the num- Der who have not properly mastered :ro operation of & car, but it is likely Q lave little effect upon the wilfully 'ecSaesss and those are the ones who aeed to be reached.
 The control of those lies in the en- .crcement of the law already existing, soth through prosecution and through ne removal of the necessary license
 or such g. period as to make the punishment recognizable.

BRITISH CONFIDENCE.

The declarations of Premier Asquith before the house of commons served probably as calculated to stimulate the confidence of the British people. That they were based upon an inti- mate knowledge of existing conditions is also probable. That he knows what he is talking about when he says that he sees no dearth of war resources is made evident by the acknowledged strength of the empire and the volun- tary responses which have already been made to meet the crisis.
 As to the length of the struggle it is impossible to tell. Various pre- dictions have been made varying all the way from short to a long drawn out struggle. Even though the pre- nier believes that it will be shorter than at first predicted he sees no req son for believing that it will soon be over. There has been much terrific fighting and heavy losses. but the de- termination which prevails on each side makes it evident that there will be much more before peace is sued for
 British confidence is not only SuS- tained by the good account which their troops have given of themselves in ex- ploits of danger and daring, but in the ability of the empire to maintain its position. It has been much slower than its opponent in railying its strength, but it is today far strong CT than when the war opened and this condition will continue to increase and what is true of its military standing is likewise true of it's finances with which as a. factor in inspiring conf dence must also be associated the magnificent work which is being done by the other two members of the triple entente. British confidence in it's po- sition appears to be well founded

 Thus when the democratic majority in the sixty-fourth congress is held up as evidence of approval of the present administration and the char acter of the legislation that it has enacted, it should be viewed in its true light There is no lodging the fact that the election results show a decided disapproval of democratic rule. Not only must it be interpreted as a warning, but it is sufficient cause for the hanging out of the safety first" sign by the party directors.

BELGIUM HAS BORNE ENOUGH.

The announcement that there has been no change in the German pro- gramme whereby it was agreed to ad- init supplies for the non-combatants in Belgium is cause for satisfaction both to the sufferers and the givers. There appears to be no good reason for any other attitude except that Ger many in consideration of the fact that Belgium is held as German territory should insist upon looking after the needs of it's subjects.
 Even there can be no objection to the demand that those in Belgium who are able should go to work, if there is work to be done. The Belgians as a rule have not been rated as an idle people. They are particularly indus trious, but when their homes have been destroyed, the business of the coun- try demoralized and the people fear to return to captured cities because of the taxes and other burdens placed upon them, there is not much encour- agement in German conduct to make them very enthusiastic over scurrying about to find work, as much as they doubtless prefer it to idleness. Bel gium is not the busy hive of industry that it was and it is likely to be some time before it will be again. In the meantime some incentive Is necessary, but it will not be contributed by op- pression. It is too much to expect that the events of the recent past can be obliterated in a minute, and it cer- tain1y will not improve matters to withhold from the suffering people the expressions of sympathy of the outside world which take the form of necessi- ties of life while they are passing through these dark days of trial and tribulation. Belgium has borne enough

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

Wytsehaete-A small town of West Flanders, Belgium, about two miles from the French border, and eight miles south of Ypres. The principal output of the town is table-linen. ai- though lace-making and weaving are carried on to some extent. Wystchaete has population close to 4,000.
 PassaVant- En- -Argonne - A mail town on the southern border of the Forest of Arsonne, about six miles southeast of St. Menehould. At one end of the village is a steep mountain, the sides of which are covered with vineyards. Two hundred yards from the town is a monument bearing the words, Here have the PrusSianS mas sacred 4s French soldiers. disarmed and prisoners of war. August 25, IS70." On this date the French vol unteers on the Marne received orders to retire to St. Menehould. The de- tachment of 1.50O men was overtaken by the German cavalry and fled in dis order toward La Bassee. The Prus- sians captured S43 men and 27 officers. At Passavant some of the prisoners were allowed to visit their homes in the neighborhood, and many took ad- vantage of the opportunity to attempt to escape. It was the signal for a wild scene. The Prussian regulars, quart cred just outside the town, rushed in, and by the time order was restored, 174 soldiers were lying on the ground, 49 of them dead.
 CVprus-An island in the Mediter- ranean which has figured largely in the history of Europe. Mt. Olympus occupies it's southern portion. Famed in antiquity for its forests, today, eX- cept for the pine woods on the surl- mits of this historic mountain, it is largely bare and treeleSs. Egypt came monarchs to find timber for their fleets and from Athens and Rome men to work its rich copper mines The first great missionary journey, and Mark went there later with Barnabe s. At the division of the Roman Empire Cyprus went to the Byzantine Elm perors. In the 18th century England took the island and sold it to tie to the Kin of Jerusalem. In 1870 the Turks sent 6o,000 men against Cy- prus; Nicosia, its capital, was taken after a 45 day siege, and 10000 peA- pie were put to the sword. In 1878 England and Turkey entered into an sovereignty over the island, while England took charge of its administra- tion. Cyprus is 14S miles long, from 40 to 60 miles wide, and is about $500 square miles in area, with a fer tile plain separating northern and southern mountain ranges. The is land produces copper, gold, silver, asbestos, gypsum, red jasper, cotton, wheat, barley, tobacco, silk and fruits. Wine is its best known product The water supply is meagre but the climate is healthy.
 khorasan-A north central province of Persia, forming part of the great 1 Iranian Plateau, and separated by mountains from the Russian Trans caspian Province. Barren sand-wastes alternate with many fertile valleys throughout the province The capital is Meshed and the next important city is Nushapur. Carpets manufactured there are among the finest of Persia. Whaet, rice, tobacco, cotton and hemp are grown.

CORN GROWING.

By the government crop report the production of corn this year in Con 8ecticut amounted to 2,S1O, ,000 bushels. In 1913 the production was 2,34S, 900 bushels, showing a gain in the past year of nearly a half million bushels When 1t is realized in addition to this that the price this year was six cents a busheI in advance of last year at the same time, it can be realized that this extra cultivation of corn was worth while.
 For two years the New London County Agricultural society has been cndeavoFfng to stir up interest among the farmers of this county in the mat ter of corn raising. The result last year. when there were but eight en- tries in the exhibit, was, to say the least, discouraging. This year there were twenty eight. Even this does not disclose as much interest as should De manifested in such an important farming subject, but if on the basis of the exhibitors, the society has suc- ceeded in arousing three and a, half times as much interest in corn pro- duCtion it has accomplished something which is going to be of still further benefit to this county
 It has long been realized that this end of Connecticut has not produced the amount of corn that it could or should. Yet with the proper amount of interest and attention there is no reason why it should not be able to practically supply its demands. It seems entirely unnecessary that this good corn growing section should be dependent upon other states for that grain when by the application of mod ern methods of cultivation it's crop gan be materially increased. It ought at least to get the proper return for the labor expended which is too se1- dom the case now
