exception to the presidents course in

aptly described as a trail of VICE.

The same idea runs through the
comment of the republican New York
Tribune, which says: 1.-THE semi-of.
fetal statement issued in Washington
makes it clear that the administration
had other provocation than the recent
arrest of an American naval officer
and marines when it determined upon
a naval demonstration against Mexi-

purpose exists which some of the
presidents admirers read into that
demonstration"
The Tribune also makes the state

previous policy of President Wilson,

PASTEURIzE MILK.
State Board of Health Says That Is
 Only Safe Way.

The value to public health of milk pasteurization is discussed in the monthly bulletin of the state board of health for January issued Monday It
 says: "A1l over the country there is today a rapid extension of the prac- tice of pasteurizing milk. Some of the larger cities (NeW York and Chicago) have passed statutes requiring the pasteufiZation of all milk except that from tuberculin-tested cattle. This
 growing demand for pasteuriation comes from the increasing realization of the fact that milk is a medium for distributing tuberculosis typhoid
 diphtheria. scarlet fever septic sore throat and intestinal trouble, the past
 ten years having shown hundreds of
 serious epidemics traced to the milk
 supply. Moreover, it has been realized
 also that no safeguards placed around
 milk at it's sources can wholly remove these dangers; for occasionally such epidemicS have been traced even to
 certified milk which has been produced
 siole to devise. A typhoid bacillus
 carrier may at any time unconscious
 ly be employed in a dairy and be the
 means of a typhoid epidemic among the patrons of the dairy. The impos-
 sibility of sufficiently guarding milk
 at its source has led health authorities
 to urge pasteurization as the only
 means of protecting the public from these considerable dangers
 This is urged the more confidently
 because by the American method of
 pasteurizing, the milk may be rendered
 safe without changing it's physical or
 chemical character, or it's digestibility
 As carried out in Europe pasteuriza-
 ton slightly injures the taste and the
 food value of the milk, but a higher
 temperature is used there than on this
 side of the Atlantic. The American method of pa SteuriZa tiOn consists in
 heating the milk to 40 to 145 degrees and maintaining that temperature for half an hour. Such treatment does
 not affect the taste. the cream line
 or the digestibility of the milk. but it does destroy all the disease germs l that get into the milk and render it i safe eyen for use as food by the del | icate Infant. Public Dasteurization or ! home pa,steurization are equally eff . cient If performed with care. The only

ANNOUNCEMENTS
KATHLEEN BARLOW WELL
 REEEIVED IN NEW YORK.
Critics of That City Speak Highly of
 Her Artistic Work.

The last number of the Academy concert course the recital by Kath- leen Parlow, violinist, which will be given in Slater hall on Monday even ing Feb. 23 should be the most in teresting concert of the course. Miss Parlow, who makes her appearance in Norwich next Monday evening for the first time, is considered the foremost woman exponent of the violin, and Norwich music lovers are to be con- graduated upon having an opportuni- ty to hear this young and gifted artist while she is at the zenith of her Won- derfui powers.
 W. E. Chase, writing for the New York Sun, thus comments onNher play ing at a recent concert given in Car negie hall. New York: Kathleen Pariow, tall, straight, slim and sway ing as the white birch sapling of her native Canada, but a spring vision all in pink from French heels to fiddle chin-rest, and crowned with parted chestnut hair of a deeper auburn than any Stradivarius violin, made an as tonisEing impression of nasterful ease. From start to finish, the Saint Saens airs bore the heightened effect of a strong, new personality. The very Ioughness of savage sweep of that bow arm was thrilling. The young woman could not mistake the furore she created in the most critical audi ence that assemblies in New York"
 Richard Aldrich. the critic of the New York Times is fully as enthusi- astic in his praise of her playing. Mr. Aldrich said: Miss Parlow has a tone of purity, roundness and mellow ness. of a quality both searching and sympathetic, and in cantalina it is moving and expressive She plays with a remarkable accuracy of intonation, and with fiuency and precision that do not fail her in the most exacting and difficult passages. Her lowing is maste1ly in It's elasticity and freedom: and sender as this young women is to look at, she shows an astonishing en- durance and unf1agging power.''
 Seats for the Kathleen Parlow re- cital are now on sale at the store of George A. Davis. Admission s2; all seats reserved.

The Stigma. Powerful Two Reel Ora.
 ma, With Francis Bushmann.

Everybody admires the splendid man. hood reflected in every character por- trayed by the versatile Francis Bush mann of the Essanay cast, and his own personality in its true light shines through them all. In fact, he is a hero of the movies and, being wonderfully equipped mentally, a graduate of two universities, it is not to be wondered at that his every character creation is universal success. Today he loves 8 girl who is a victim of leprosy. but his love for her grows every day, stronger and stronger. She loves him. too, so much that she sacrifices her life to save him from the terrible plague. He follows her to the beyond where there is no sorrow and no ills, and again he shines in the light of his true spirit, The Return of Jack Bel lew is a wonderfully thrilling sea story by the Vitagraph east. containing much to interest and entertain, while United in Danger. a story of theatrical life, Is a splendid Edison offering. Old Doc Yaks Moving Picture is another of the big animated cartoon successes that have kept the Colonial audiences laughing for some time past.
