Letters From the People
The w. w. Club.

To the Editor of The News:
 Will you be so kind as to inform me through the paper whether the Wurra Wurra Club has been disbanded. If not why are the reports of the proceed ings discontinued in The News We have become so much in the habit of turning to the Wur1a Wurra Club, all our family, the first thing, when the paper comes, that it doesn't seem natural to find it missing and we are anxious to know what has become of it. If it has broken up will you not re- organize it, for the paper does not seem the same without the report of the pro- ceedings and the. sayings of the fiat member. Yours respectfully,
 Canaan, Feb. 20. Reader.
 [The foregoing is in line with num- Der of other inquiries on the same sub. ject, and propounds a popular conun- up." We are not informed as to whether the Club has disbanded, or suspended its meetings permanently. However, our attention has been called to the circumstance that the club-room has not been illuminated on the regular meeting night during any week since the Great Harrington Chamber of Com merce banquet, and that the corres- bonding secretary, who supplied The News with the reports, has been keep ing unusually quiet since that festive event. It has come to our ears, also, that there is some difficulty in the Club, (not being a member we do not pretend to speak with authority, be- tween the sexton and the board of di. rectors, which may account for the sus- pension of operations. The story is, that Mir. Strong sent in his resignation as sexton when he was elected presi- dent of the Cornpop and Sasf'rilly AS sociation, a few weeks ago, but de- clined to either unlock the Club-room or surrender the keys until disputed balance on his salary was forthcoming. However, it is quietly whispered around that steps are being taken to adjust matters ut an early date, and Cores bonding Secretary Ford is said to have just completed number of amend ments to the Bylaws concerning in- ter-state relations between business and fraternal organizations on both sides of the Massachusetts line, on which he will demand early action So there may be something doing next week.

The School Needs.

To the Editor of The News:
 Here is one parent who wants to ex- press his approval of MT. Strayer's letter town is right up against it in this school proposition. Either there must be ad- ditional accommodation for the high school or else the out of town pupils must be turned away. That certainly would be fool proposition. Gradually we have been building up reputation in the surrounding towns and have now large patronage. Probably no other high school in this section of the state has as many out of town pupils as this school except the Gilbert school at Win sted. What does this mean? Simply this, that for some years now the salary of one teacher has been paid by out of town pupils, giving our own pupils the benefit of just so much better teaching. This year we are told that the town will receive $1 ,000 or more from these tuitions. We may not always get that much but we are not likely to get much less because the towns tributary to this are not likely to have high S&ilOO1s LII 1ItGlI oWh. out IllOh6dlNl dollars would pay the interest on the investment and still pay the salary of one teacher. It is a good business prop osition. No business man would hesi- tate to borrow money to expand his business, when he was absolutely cer- tain of enough additional income to pay the interest on the debt and practi- cally certain of enough more to pay him ten or more per cent. on his addi- tional investment, especially when he knew that for him not to expand would not only mean the loss of a probable increase in income but also certain crippling of his present business. The wisdom of MT. Strayer's proposition seems too apparent to A Parent.

Time and ak.

Mark Sullivan, editor of Collier's Weekly, was the speaker of the evening at a recent banquet given ill Detroit by the Adcraft club. It was noticed that Mr. Sullivan spoke very rapidly, though eloquently. His remarks were brief, and afterwards it was wondered by those who heard him why he didn't speak longer.
 ''I omitted many things that in- tended to say," said MT. Sullivan to a friend afterward-
 Why ?'' the friend asked
 'It was so late," answered MT. Sul- liyan.
 "It wasn't very late," the friend replied, "and the audience was very anxious to hear you"
 "I looked at my watch when got up," said Sullivan, land it was u quarter to 12. At that hour no one should attempt to make a speech" "
 Heavens, manr' exclaimed the friend, "you've got Eastern standard time. It was only a quarter to Il when you started. "-Detroit Free Press.

The journalistic Bohemians of Hart ford are to organize Press Club, to which the newspapers workers of the Capitol City will be eligible for active membership, and under provision in the constitution nonresident news paper men may join. It is the purpose of the organization to ''hold dinners at regular intervals, and entertain guests of literary, scientific or political prom thence, who come to Hartford. " The prospect of "dinner at regular inter vals' should be sufficiently attractive argument to beguile every active news paper worker into getting himself en- rolled.

FOR HOM E RULE.

The "home rule bill' presented in the legislature by the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce, a hearing on which is soon to be held, is really one of the most important measures now be- fore the general assembly. It purposes to give to every municipality-city, town or borough-containing more than 5000 inhabitants, "power and author ity to enact, ill conformity with the General Statutes. charter for it's gov ernment, or to amend a charter under which it is governed" " in all the essen- tial details that should by right be un- der the control of the people of such municipality.
 Under the present system the people of any such town or city must go to the legislature for permission to make such changes ill their own local affairs of government as may be desirable or necessary. The people of the munici- pality, who are directly concerned, are not allowed to remedy evils or defects in their own charters, but must submit them to the General Court, which knows little and cares less about local condi- tions. The proposed act would make every such town or city it's own master, with power and authority to manage itself in such manner as it's own people would elect. Its provisions are so pal pably fair and just that it is difficult to see what righteous opposition can be brought against it.

The Old Corn Fiddle.

The old corn fiddle, it is almost time To swing your tune and sing youl
 rhyme; Old corn fiddle and the rosin bow, To the jubalilt of the long ago. Waltz, sweet lady, till the stars go
 round,
 The old corn fiddle is a pleasant
 sound When the twilight falls at the misty
 gate, There's a white hand leads me to my
 fate, And a sweet eye shines in the dusk for Meath the weeping limbs of the willow
 tree.
 Waltz, sweet lady, till the moon sits In her silver throne on the autumn
 hill! There's mellow glow in the orchards
 sweet Where the windfalls lie all around your
 feet; There's honeycomb in the hickory
 tree, And the honey dripped in the comb for
 thee.
 Waltz, sweet lady, when the fiddles
 play,
 Till the stars go down in the silver
 day! The reeds make pipes where the river For the lips of Pan where his phantom
 goes; But the old corn fiddle is 'lasses sweet For the juba dance at the twilight feet. Waltz, sweet lady, as you used to do, When our lips were young and our
 hearts were true! Waltz. sweet lady, to the fiddle tune Where the cider grlnds to the amber .P rune Of far, faint music of magic heard In the woodland voice of the fairy bird, The old corn fiddle, how sweet, now
 sweet,
 For the dance of dream where the
 red lips meet!

Now the reformers are training their guns on the Hartford insurance lobby ists.

The Governor has signed the Isbell amendment to the Civil Service law, and the amendment is at once effective. If we have read the editorial comments on this amendment aright, there is some little disagreement among the leading journalists of the state, as to its merit. From the consensus of editorial opinion we gather that the amendment is nothing more nor less than the ''rape of the civil service act;" that it "emas- culates the law and makes fool of it, i" and that, on the other hand, the wreck ing of the law will be the making of it, as it needed to be taken apart in order to keep it together.
