at Winsted on October II. How
 bald headed man can enjoy his
 food is something no decently cov-
 cred person can readily under
 stand. But on the word of P.
 Davis Oakey-who swallowed
 press club dinner on Wednesday
 evening and survived-many bald
 heads can and do. And anyway
 you can't say what ought to be
 said about bald heads. It isn't
 safe. Look at what happened to
 the young people who bespoke
 Elijah r'-Harrford Times.
 We have every reason to believe the moral lesson of the Elijah incident has been entirely lost. The things that jealous people who have hair will say nowadays about bald-heads, are noth- ing short of scandalous. And what they say of those whose hair is of the "now you see it, now you don't" kindy is even worse.
 We still fail to see how faithful
 John can be tolerated in the role of masquerader-he is either bald or
 he ism 't-but one thing is sure: if he is to be present, as promised, the bald-heads of Connecticut and the
 world at large ought to fill the straets of Winsted to overfiowing." New Haven Journal Courier.
 Fill the streets! Does the flowing tresstd Colonel think this is going to be a street show, like the sordid per- formance of a corn doctor. or band of Kick lpoo Indian Sagwa merchants?
 If John knows how to grow new crop of hair on a denuded scalp why doesn't he publish the rec;pe and disband the Bald Head Club? It would disband if it could. The bald-heads may fool themselves but they can't fool the men who have brains inside and hair outside their skulls. They are associated for what consolation and encouragement they can get fro Il each other. And JohD is merely trifing with the innermost and most sacred instincts of the men who haven't any of what they woAld exhibit with pride if they haA any of it to exhibit. ''-Water- bury Republican.
 Hog little the hairy author of the above islander understands the general mental attitude of his own kind with to the Bald. Head Club of Americal A well-knoIn Connecticut statesman remarked a few days ago, after contemplating the prospective at- fractions of the Winsted function: "I would give twenty-five dollars to be bald headed Thursday night!'
 "Wben he found hair growing again on top of his head, he offered to get out, but somehow he didn't, It doesn't seem right for a man with a luxurious growth of hair all over his head to be one of the lead ing spirits in a club of bald headed men. His status ought to be definitely established at Thursdays S meeting. In view of his wiliful fracture of the clubs main rule, we suggest that he be removed from active membership and made an ornery member. ''-Hartford Courant.
 Whats fellow to do when his is hurled back in his teeth? The suggestion of expulsion comes with tact from a Governor of the famous Laurel Club, who is now serving the fifth year of a two-year term.
 "John claims that when, he formed the Bald-Hea Club afore- said, he either was bald or believed he was going to be. But the fact that he isn't bald constitutes such rich joke that everybody forgives him. "-New Haven Register.
 In view of all the joshery he has to stand for, it's no side-splitting joke to be hairy bald-head. But even so, what call has everybody to offer for giveness for joke that's on the other fellow?
 Just to show the perveTsity of things these times. man whose polished sconce earned him the presidency of the Bald-Head Club of America had uo sooner accepted the honor than his ringlets began to sprout, until now he looks like the hairiest lion in captivity New York Evening Telegram.
 Say not so. President Orr can prove an alibi. This jealous New York scribe is bald-uD
