COOPERATIVE CLEANUP RE-
SUITS,

Where there is general cooperation
in a cleanup movement the best results
can not only be anticipated, but are
likely to follow. This is applicable
not only to every individual, but to
every department of a city and the
manner in which it results is well IL
Illustrated by the action which has been
taken in the city Of Providence. There
Superintendent of Health Chaplin an
nounces that Providence is a cleaner
and a brighter city today than it has
ever been before. The spring clean
up movement has worked wonders.
However there are some people who
will not clean up unless you make
them and it is my intention to do that
very thing"
This is where the heads of depart
ments have an opportunity to get in
some excellent work and in support
Of his words the superintendent has
been making a thorough canvass with
the result that he has found five in
stances where he will bring prosecu-
lions because of conditions revealed
and in ten other cases orders will be
issued to clean up the premises or
vacate them.
Such action means that Providence
is going to realize some real and last
ing benefit from its undertaking. 1t
is going to get rid of some eyesores
and some disease breeding places, the
harm from which should be antici-
pated and prevented rather than per-
NIT them to continue and develop into
worse nuisances.
Every city has it's work cut out in
this respect There are too few spot
less towns and if every city tackled
the work Of cleanup week in such a
manner there would be greater cause
for rejoicing at the results accom-
,plished. The importance of a clean
up from the health standpoint cannot
be safely ignored.

Tent CATERPILLAR Pe.ts.

Mr. Editor: I wish to call the at
tention Of the readers of The Bulletin
to the prevalence of the tent caterpillar
this spring, and to urge everyone able
against this pest
All who have had occasion to drive
into the country all about Norwich
must have noted the numerous nests
Of the tent caterpillar. Though this
pest is one always with US it is gen
orally kept in check by it's natural en-
emies. 1t is only once in a genera
ton that it really becomes a menace.
We are row passing through one of
those PERIODS Of menace. 1t is real
| menace, too, as all who have travelled
through certain parts Of Massachu-
sets and the northeastern part of
Connecticut within the last three years
can testify. I have seen whole or
| chards If apple trees absolutely ruined
by this caterpillar. On some of the
trees could be counted thirty and for
ty huge nests and not one green
leaf to be seen though 1t was the
month Of June. AS the owners neglect
ed to take active measures and as the
natural enemies of the caterpillar did
not catch up with their prey early
enough, the trees were killed outright
the second season.
At present in this locality the insects
are largely confined to the wild cherry
shrubs, for they prefer the cherry to
the apple. Unless the natural enemies
multiply excessively this season SO as
to destroy 70 per cent Of the caterpil-
lars we shall next year see the pests
upon our apple trees in alarming num-
bers 1t is not for us to take chances,
and we should start in ourselves to
| lessen the number of nests.
At present the caterpillarS are small,
being scarcely one fourth grown in
most of the nests. They have there
| fore eaten less than one fourth of
what they are to eat this year, PROB
ably less than one tenth, because their
than their bodies. At this age they
are found at home in their nests much
of the time going out only to feed.
Later they will scatter and then it
will De impossible to destroy them.
These insects are perfectly harmless
to mankind. One can handle them
with impunity They are unpleasant,
but they cannot harm a human being.
Let reason overcome prejudice and get
right to work and destroy every nest
you can reach as follows:
While the caterpillars are punched
| in the nest, tear the nest off carefully
with the fingers, throw the bunch on
the ground and crush 1t with the foot.
If one is careful he need not get into
| much contact with the insects, for the
web serves as coating between the
| fingers and the caterpillars. Person
ally 1 lay all feeling aside and trust
to soap and water to remedy the ap-
pearance of my fingers after making
war upon numerous nests.
There are many people in Norwich
who could help in this way. Let them
load up their automobiles with boys
and take any road out into the coun-
try. Turn the boys loose upon the
pest and clean up one or two miles
Of roadsides in an afternoon. 1t is
an easy remedy, and If ten automobile

a vivid conception Of how uninte1ligent
our present methods are, or how pitt
fully we lack in the international field
the simplest machinery for the avoid
ance Of conflict such as is provided in
the internal organization Of the state.
1t is with a view therefore to arous-
ing the American public to a con-
seriousness Of the possibilities that lie
in a true court of justice for the ma
lions and developing an insistent de-
mand for it, thus Strengthening the
hands Of the United States government
in it's appeal for its early establish
ment, that we have called this con-
gress."
1t must be looked upon as an i'm
portant accompaniment of the move
ment for international peace for even
though that has been rudely shaken
by the European war, the great con-
fiict has nevertheless demonstrated the
necessity of doing everything possible
to prevent its repetition once peace is
declared.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Trade at Home,

Mr.. Editor: The trade at home SEN
timent is practical and would find
more favor if those who preach it set
the example.
a Norwich business house solicited
It's patrons to trade at home by an
issue of circulars bearing upon them
the imprint of a Chicago print shop.
Doesn't the business man think his
patrons have eyes to see and minds to
comprehend his disloyalty to the prin-
ciples he advocates?
Our newspapers advocate home trade.
boom every local enterprise, and those
benefited buy their printing wherever
they can get it cheapest.
If Norwich merchants are patroniz-
ing Long Island farmers instead of
New London county farmers, and
patronizing New York and Chicago
printers instead of their own, and pur-
chasing household goods In New York
and Boston, how do they expect to hold
the trade of the people?
If the cheapest market is what the
merchants all seek, why should not
their patrons do the same?
The trouble with Norwich business
combinations is that they are not con-
sistent, they are asking the people to
do what they do not do themselves.
This Chicago circular was a very
pretty piece of printing, but il was no
better or more attractive than Nor
witch printers can produce if they are
paid for their work.
The writer buys most of his goods in
Norwich, but his eyes are wide open
to the violation by business men Of the
very tenets which they advocate as
best and most profitable for their
patrons.

thousands of nests I have DESTROYED

thousands of nests I have DESTROYED
along roadsides during the past five
years. II half the people of Norwich
had destroyed one half as MANY nests
each as I have done there would not
day. But it is a task that calls for
many hands.
Some mistaken persons say-cut
down the cherry bushes and so stop
their increase. On the contrary it is
wise to leave the wild cherry shrubs
alongside the orchard, for these will
serve as traps for the pest and keep
them off the apple tree very largely. But
one should destroy them on the cherry
every year. The mistake is made
in destroying only those on the apple
trees, leaving thousands close by to
breed moths to lay eggs for next year
upon the apple trees.
If any OF my readers think that this
is a trivial matter, let him go from
Norwich Town to Fitchville. Let him
count the nests upon some wild cher
ries. Let him note the Indifference
of the people who live in that locality.
This is an indifference that will be
noted everywhere, and one can see
again and again cherry shrubs right
in the back yard or within stone throw
of the front door with from six to six
teen nests defiling the Landscape.
Those who are persuaded to help
should act at once
Yours very truly,
ALLEN LATHAM.

For Sallow, Wrinkled,
Freckled, Pimpled Skin

If you have any cutaneous blemish,
don't use paint, powder Or anything
emphasizes the defect. Besides. it's
much easier to remove the disfgure-
ment with ordinary mercoIized wax.
Applied nightly. the wax will gradually
remove freckles, pimples, blackheads,
moth patches. sa1lowness, red or yellow
blotches or any surface eruptions. The
affected cuticle is absorbed, little
each day, until the clear, soft, youthful
and beautiful skin beneath is brought
wholly to view. Ask the druggist for
an ounce of mercolized wax and use
this like you use cold cream. Remove
in morning with soap and water. Many
who have tried this simple and harm
less treatment report astonishing re-
suits.
If bothered with wrinkles or crows
feet, a wash lotion made by dissoIving
an ounce of powdered saXolite in a, half
pint witch hazel will prove remarkably
effectual

An ngagement-another mana
quarrel. Two lovers were separated
because the girl fell desperately in
love with the Other Man. The Man
returned to his distant home, while
the Girl allowed the Other to make
passionate love to her.
AS the days and weeks rolled by the
Girl felt how lucky she was that she
had met the Other in time. At times.
however, he didn't seem to be the pas
sionate lover he had been in the first
few days. Neither knew whether he
really had changed or whether he just
seemed that way to the Girl. The
Other told tie Girl that he could never
marry her, for he was pledged to some-
one else. Still he kept making love to
her, and she kept hoping that some
time she might be able to have the
Other, despite the someone else.
Then the fiend incarnate, Jealousy,
seemed to abide in the heart of the
Girl. The Other began to make love
to the Girls c11um. Now the Girl was
very fond of the Chun1, even as she
was of the Other, so she was torn be-
OF course in her bitterness she blamed
the ChuIn for trying to take the Other
from her but it wasn't really the
chun's fault for it was the Other who
had started the love-mal<ing. The
C1unn. lonesome to be loved, had mere
of the Other, for he was a very fas-
cinating man.
There came a time when the Other
began to realize that he had played
too far with the Girl. She really did
care for him, while he, even though
he did care in his way, had been plain
ly playing with her, for he was to
marry someone else. Then he grew
cool toward the Girl, and she wor-
ried over his GOODNESS. OF course with
Jealousy behind her, she blamed the
Chum, never thinking Of the Others
fnancee as the cause of the breech.
Meanwhile the Man came again to
see the Girl, and she, still loving the
Other refused finally to marry the
Man. So the Man went back home
once more, for he was broken hearted
over the Girl whom he loved better
than life itself. His hopes and ambi-
lions were gone, killed by the Girl,
who had once said the she loved him
and would marry him And the Girl
left him to his misery, while she long
ed for a returning warmth in the love
that the Other gave to her.
At times it seemed as though he
were really giving her more of that
old love. Then the Girl was happy, but
not for long for she soon found that if
she was receiving love from the Other,
so was her Chum, and no girl wants
to share the kisses of her lover with

REPENTANCE

another girl. The Girl was at loss
what to do, for she still loved both
the Other and her Chum.
Then came the day when the Other
asked a special interview with the Girl
She was happy to grant it, but soon
found that it was to be an unhappy
ending to all her hopes. The other
told her plainly that they could never
be anything but friends, and that she
had best forget him. The Girl was
overwhelmed with grief for she really
cared for the Other. She bade him
good-by, however, promising not to
write to him or see him as that would
be the easiest way to forget him.
The Girl brooded over the Other in
silence for q short time, and listened
with aching heart, while the Chum
told her little things said and done by
the Other. She realized that she had
lost him forever, and her heart ached.
There came a day when the Girl sud
denly knew that she had been a mere
passing fancy to the Other, and that
when she had taken his attentions too
seriously he had felt 1t best to be rid
of her. She realized that he may not
have meant to hurt her, and he no
doubt thought that she would play at
love with him and not mean it. She
knew then that she could never be
happy with a man who would make
love to her one day and her Chum
the next; so she resolved that she
would get over the ache by just think
ing of the Other as a dear friend and
nothing more.
About that time the Girl began to
think of how she had treated the Man,
who had gone home broken-hearted.
Deep down in her heart she had al
ways felt sorry for him, but she had
tried to drown that feeling for she
wanted to forget him. Now that she
had given up all hope of the Other,
except as a friend, she thought she
ought to try, if possible, to make up
for what he had done to the Man.
So she wrote to the Man and told
him she repented of all she had done
to cause him sorrow, and that she
would marry him and try to make him
a good wife if he really wanted her,
after the way she had acted. He, like
the generous hearted man that he was,
answered that he had always loved her
and had wanted her even after she
had sent him away. He was more
than glad to get her at all, for he had
given up all hopes Of ever having the
Girl, whom he had always loved.
When the Girl received the letter
from the Man, telling her that he still
wanted her, she was SO happy that she
cried. At last she was to have a
chance to make up in happiness what
she had caused him in sorrow. How
glad she was that she had repented
before it was too late.-Boston Post.

Jitney accidents are beginning to
come in from Hartford and New Hav-
en- and they have caused SO much
comment in the latter city that there
is some talk of enacting a city ordin-
ance to regulate the operating of the
machines. 1t seems as if such action
may be contrary to the state law be-
cause when the legislature was fix
ing the license fee for the jitneys 1t
was understood that they would be
subject to the state law in regard to
automobiles and to no other. It would
be much better, however, if the jitneys
were subject to local regulations be-
cause then it would be possible to
have the condition in the particular
place where they are being operated
