RED CROSS CHRISTMAS
 SEAL CAMPAIGN


 The State Tuberculosis Commission is making preparations for the Red Cross Christmas Seal campaign. It is the ambition of the commission to sell 3,00a300O seals in Connecticut, and the interest taken in the light against the Great White Plague as shown by the enthusiastic support j1x om every community, leads the commission to believe that it's ambi- ton twill be realized. Agents have been appointed or reappointed in about 40 cities and towns, and orders are being received every day.
 Connecticut stood third on the Inter State Competition list for 1914, and it is hoped that this coming cam paign will boost Connecticut to the very top of the list.
 Last year over one and one-ElaIf million seals were sold in Connecticut which provided over S15,000 for the relief of tuberculosis inhabitants of the state, and for the prevention of the disease If the sales this season reach the figures desired over, S$0,- 900 will be realized for use in the fight against tuberculosis, and will di- rect1y benefit every resident of the state.
 The sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals will begin the day after Thanks giving Nov 20, and an earnest appeal is made to every resident of the state to do his share in helping to stamp out stubercu1osis.

 LAYING CONTEST

No one connected with the laying contest at Storrs has wanted to pre- dict the winner although a month ago it was sort of conceded that the Leg horns would in all probability win first place, particularly in view of the fact that at that time three pens of this breed, all within few eggs of each other, stood at the top. Mean while. however. the Leghorns laid down a little while some of the heav- In consequen pen of Wyandottes cad a pen of Rhode Island Reds are new holding first and second places |f9spectively, thus leaving these three pens of Iegh orns to contend for third place. The time is so short that it does not now look as if it would be possible for the lighter birds to re- coup their losses Not only that but New York pen of Rhode Island Reds from Newburgh succeeded in passing last week a Pennsylvania pen of Leghorns from Waningfords thus moving up from tenth place to ninth.
 The total production of all pens for the fitieth week amounted to 178I eggs or relatively $40 more. than for the corresponding week last year. Thus for nearly two months the hens in the present contest have regularly for the corresponding period a year ego. Tn ase higher autumn yields have been Very gratifying, not only because they make for a higher an DuaI production but because these higher yields are coming at the sea son of highest prices.
 Tom Barron's pen of White Wyan- dottes from Catforth, England, won first place for. the week with pro- sduction of AT eggs. NeaIes Bros pen of the same breed from Apponaug, R.

gaps in the health work.
Health Assnciattor,z Pnonnsed.

1 Health Associations Proposed. To fill these gaps a most interesting
 suggestion of far-reaching effect if ever adopted generally, is made. It is one advocating the organization of county health associations. Primarily it is advocated that such a body be a private organization. although from time to time it's activities might be
 taken over by public agencies
 These associations when organized
 are to represent in tEe health field what the boards of trade and com
 fare of the commercial life of com munities. Through the agency of such county health associations the cooperation of hospitals, physicians,
 boards of health and private medical and social service organizations is sought.
 The main objects which such an as sociation would seek to systematically carry out for the benefit of the sick, and with the idea of eliminat ting un- necessary suffering and financial losses would be:
 Establishing an efficient system of
 nursing and social service for the care of the sick in their own home, through the formation of centers,
 where nurses, physicians, and suita- ble domestic help would be register
 ed and available day and night. Securing the cooperation of all eX-
 isting hospitals in continuous sections
 so as to extend their facilities over a wider area.
 Establishing clinics; carrying on
 preventive campaigns; and securing
 the adoption and enforcement of pub lie health measures.
 Considerable space is given in the publication to the working out of the
 details of these proposed county health organizations. The benefits to communities of such bodies are clear ly defined and well illustrated. This committees plans present the
 most comprehensive practical and sys- tematic program on such a large scale that has ever been worked out in the United States. It's thorough
 ness and wide scope of suggested ac-. tivities is,the direct result of the com pleteness and skill with which the
 Duchess county investigation and
 carried out by the committee in charge of the work. The movement which is advocated, particularly for the better care Of the sick, will undoubtedly spread through the organization of county health as- sociations, or similar agencies Of that type under different names through out many sections of the United States

WHY JEFFERSON DAVIS
 WAS NOT TRIED

Do you know why Jefferson Davis was never tried and convicted in the civil courts of treason against the United States? If your thought in the matter is not clear, you will be interested in a contribution by Hon. D. K. Watson, of this city to a recent number of the Yale Law Journal On May s. 1866, MT. Davis was indicted by the grand jury of the Federal District court of Virginia. In May of the following year he was produced in court by the commandant of Fortress Monroe and surrendered to the civil authorities. The case was continued until November, 1868, when Mir. Davis counsel filed an affi- davit. reciting the fact that "Jeffer- son Davis was in the year 1S45, pre- vious to the offenses charged. a mem Der of Congress and took the oath to support the Constitution of the United States
 The affidavit raised a constitutional question, the claim of counsel being that Section 3. Article XIV, just ad- opted as an amendment, described the only punishment permissible in the case of a congressman who had sub sequently committed treason-that ia

 In this way, the fact that property might have been mortgaged and re mortgaged, was sufficiently concealed to eng ble Henry to escape detection.
 The extent of his operations grows with every day. More and more con- tract holders are reporting. Just how much of the increment from his deals Henry has succeeded in holding is not Known. but some think his real profits have not been large.
