The flight of the bear into the gro- cery store, the locking of the doors. the fuslade of shots, the wrecked pickle bottles, riddled hams. shattered glass careening cans and battered boxes would require as much again. The death of the bear, his last words, the remarks of Ren Morgan would fill another column and a half.
 But the situation, just as 1t stands, seems to indicate that Miguel and Mo- hab will always be just plain gro- cery store settlers.

DEER BILL.

If Governor Holcomb approves ofI the deer bill as now amended and which has been agreed to by house and senate, it will mean that deer will have difficult time of it during the next two years. The bill gives the owners of property the right to kill deer which come onto their land
 This will be virtually a license to bring about the extermination of those animals. Farmers have been complaining for a long time that deer are destroying their crops and yet the law forbids them to protect their pros,- erty in the only way they feel they can protect it and that is to kill the trespassers. This can now be done
 and as different people own all the land in the state and each person will
 comes on the land, the new law means
 that every owner of piece of grass
 in Connecticut, who sees deer graz
 ing upon 1t, can shoot it. There will

 deer while such law remains on the
 statute books of this state.
 It is generally felt that the farmers are entitled to protection for their crops, but it is also felt that the bill which the governor is asked to sign is very sweeping and affords an op- portunity for the killing of the ani- mals which in the end will result in having x close season established so as to prevent their entire extinc- I ton in the state The deer is a grace l full animal 1t is becoming numerous l In the state and wherever seen is much admired for it's beauty. Cases l have been reported where it has visit l ed vegetable patches and destroyed l the crop and has also destroyed young trees in the fields. It Is this form of l depreciation that has caused the leg

 Many more lives could have been saved from the Lusitania but for the fact that the boats could not be low cred until the vessel had lost her headway because they, would trip and capsize. It was nnpossible to stop the ship because of her great momen- tum and the destruction of the en- zines. However, life rafts were tossed off and passengers in belts or able to swim jumped after them. Many more could have been saved had there teen larger number of these life rafts. The same was true of the Ti- tanic disaster. More rafts would have saved hundreds additi~ al--New Hav- cn Union.
