CANADA LoYAL 10

. CANADA LOYAL O
 THE BRITISH EMPIRE
 The loyalty of Canadians to the Brit ish Empire is perhaps one the most remarkable political facts in existence. Although Canadians ar far more simi. lar in their ways ana manners and methods to the people Of the United States than they are to those of Great Britain .hey still are to all intents and purposes British to the core. just as much as # they had been born and raised in tho tight little island itself
 Australians arc far more English in accent and manner than Canadians but the two countries are almost ex- aotly parallel in the course which they invariably pursue when the mother country goes out scrapping. This is all the more queer when it is remem- bered that Great Britain could At into a corner of one of the Canadian or Australian provinces. It looks like lot of big muscular sons in family whose head is little old mother Wonder what will happen when the two colonies have hundreds Of millions of population? The chances are then that Great Britain will look like a very small part indeed Of the English speak ing peoples.
 Tn the meantime you can always notice here or any place else that 9 Canadian is even more intensely work ed up by the war in Europe than an Englishman himself-(Seward Gate way.

unEsTRY CIRCULAR
Uistributed to School Pupils Enioins
 Care and Caution.

-me Connecticut Forestry associa-
 ion has distributed to the pupils in he public school here circulars entitled A Forestry Lesson for the Boys and Girls of Connecticut. The circular sets forth the great value of wood and the degree in which man is de- pendent upon it for many comforts and uses. It tells of the damage from forest fires and many careless ways in which these destructive cenhagra- tfonS are caused.
 One paragraph headed Forest Fires Are Preventable, says: There would seldom be one if someone were not careless. Anyone who starts forest fire either eaTelessly or on purpose, is his country's foe. but one who puts aut forest fire is his countrys friend. You know which you would rather be. A boy or girl who helps to prevent forest fires from starting is a true patriot. You can be one if you will.
 Advice offered includes being care full with fire in the woods and teach does not think with it's head; don't trust it. Never throw down lighted match, cigar stub or cigarette: put it out.
 Cotton Mills Keeping at Work.
 Danfelson cotton mills are getting no orders that are a direct result of the European war, as is the case with some contracts placed with wooden mills in this section of the state. The local plants are grinding away at their some old staple lines. One manufac- turer states that the present is not a propitious time hereabouts for cot ton manufacturing, but the plants are kept running. Danie'son seems to be one of the very lucky towns of the state as regards the manner in which its plants have kept in operation dur ing the past year, which has been one of slack work in many cotton man ufacturing cent&rs

 Undoubtedly this ready response from the people of all nationalities and religions was due largely to the clergy of every denomination who urged the people under their influence to re- spend literally in a most worthy cause.

Inc piano behind the success tells the story in few words

Youhear of the Man behindthe gun" We will tell you of the piano be- hind the success.
 The success of this sale is undoubtedly duo to the broad and liberal policy back of it. To anticipating many conditions that prospective buyers of pianos would like to have, and making them part of the agreement. But back of the policy. is the piano. No policy, however liberal, would carry big enterprise like this to the success that this sale has attained, without a p:ano worthy of tEat policy back of 1t.
 The piano itself is the foundation of the suc- cess of this great sale-and it deserve to be.
 these psanos deserve 1ne approval with which they are meeting.
 For they are certainly excellent instruments. The case designs are beautiful Of plain architecture Straight lines. No ornanen- tation. No gewgaws. But beautifully hand polished until you can see yourself in them, or else of the new and most desirable Satin or Art finish, so popular now in furniture. $. As to the materials-the wood, the strings, the felt the ivory, the action-they will give the came identical satisfaction that of the highest priced piano made.
 These are pianos that will give lifetime of satisfactory service.
 They are the kind of pianos you have had pie sured in your minds eye as the kind of piano you would want for your home when you were ready to buy.
 They gre the kind of pianos you wouid poirt to with pride No home contains better piano in looks-in tone-or in lasting and durable qualities
