 Looking back over forty years, n IS difficult for us to realize the arpazfng stupidity of the people and Of tnetr leaders in 1914 Cearn's idea was sim pie clear and irresistible. He gave his whole life to 1t. Why the world oid not grasp 1t at once is a mystery.

A CORRECT SENTIMENT.

States Attorney AIcorn meets with hearty approval in his opposition to the movement of thoughtless New Britain people to secure the release of Bank Embezzler Walker from Weth- ersfield. Walker is just where he be- longs and where he should be obliged to stay to the end of his sentence which has sixteen more years to run. He committed the meanest of crimes. has consistently refused to give the state any information concerning the crooks who assisted him in relieving the bank of large sums of money. and has shown no signs of repentance The people who are seeking his release should be summarily squelched. Their sympathy is misdirected and unwar- ranted.-The Bristol Press
 The Bulletin endorses the utterance of The Press. If there is anyone de- serves sympathy and consideration it is the people who lose by these rogues and the criminals who through lack of training, and ignorance, have been guilty of crime unwittingly.
 This was an exasperatingly bad case of bank-wrecking and anything less than the full force of the law tends to promote rather than suppress these offenses against the thrifty bank depositors of the state
 Law enforced is the only law re- spected

A BUSY LITTLE LADY,

Hats off for those American Leg horns in the Storrs gg-laying contest! After long, uphill race they are within striking distance of the Eng fish Wyandottes, and with next week S This may be called a double victory for American breeding and American sour milk, for this pen of birds has received sour milk as food almost from the shell. Polo games and yacht races may provide sport for milIionaires, or rich idlers may strike at golf or ten ais balls, but they should all take a back seat when the American hen lays her way up to the front. Hurrah for Mrs. A. Leghorn-a nest frequenter in white-Rural New Yorker.
 The American Leghorn deserves the praise given her; and as the leading lady of her tribe it is the height of politeness for us to doff our hats to her.
 The American hen is an emblem of industry and she is not to blame if she does not like to be chased with the incubator hen, which lacks both form and vigor.
 The American hen in the mass is worthy of respect. There may be 100. 0.000,6o0 of her, or more and if she represents a profit of half dollar a year, she makes $50, ,000 900 a year for her owners No bird earns more, no bird is more worthy of admiration and obeiSance.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS


 In an afternoon newspaper of May G. 1854, the following sketch of the life of Henry H. Cearn appeared:
 At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon Henry H. Cearn died of pneumonia after a weeks illness
 MT. Cearn's career is probably more significant than that of any other American who ever lived
 He was born in 1890, the son of a clergyman. and was brought up in an ideal home. Tn 1914, at the age of 24. he graduated from the university. not only an honor student, but one of the best liked in the history of the school.
 Tn his twenty fifth year. however. the great vision came to him that was to dominate his life. It was that the one thing necessary to help the world is to train all the children properly.
 Those who struggled to alleviate poverty, to abate the evils of alcohol ism, to do away with the social evil, and otherwise to heal the morally de- ficient. were but allaying symptoms: the root of the matter, he perceived.
