where the deaf pupils are given 9 primary, an academic, or an industrial traii1ing.ss It is everywhere recogniz- cd that Gallaudet college. Washing ton, D. G.. founded by E. M. Gallau- det in 1864, stands at the head of the. llst. Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet has long since passed away but the good work has been carried on by his son who, is new advanced in years. He surely must be proud of his reverend father. He must be particularly well pleased with what has been accom- DIished during the. two decades.
 To-day the deaf are found doing satisfactorys work in various manu- facIuring. establishments. in work shops of all kinds, in nkchennicaI labor atories. in printing offices in studios, in sgovernment offices and in the edi- tors sanetun. They have contribut- ed valuable articles, to newspapers and current magazines They publish many papers in their own interests and have won distinction as authors. The educated deaf are energetic and contribute much to the general pros perity. The spirit that is in evil dence among. all the deaf, with whom I am acquainted is one of commend able independence and a, determina- tioneto earn each his daily bread
 Their independence and self suf- nclency IS hGT6 01npnaS1Z6Q because too many of the public hold errone- ous views on the point. There is no class of citizens who have suffered so much from frauds as the deaf. The contemptible impostor who feigns to be deaf and dumb that he may dupe the unsuspecting leaves the inn pression abroad that the deaf are beg gars. This is far from being true. Those beggars whom you believe to be deaf and dumb have adopted this low means of making a living. The next time a supposed dumb man calls at your house. call up a police officer, tell the began what you have done and you will be surprised to find that the deafness to- the fakir as well as the ifakir himself will immediately disappear. The deaf are very sensitive in this matter of begging and are very grateful to all who assist in pun isi1ing those who pretend deafness so that. they may lead a lazy life.
 y.Interest in the deaf and a better understanding of theirfntelI IectuaI and social status will be brought about by the enorts now being made to collect funds to erect, in America, a fitting n1onument to the memory of Father DeL'Epee.
 A monument to the memory of Thomas Hopkins GalIaudet was erect ed on the grounds of Ga1laudet col 1ege, Washington, p. O., in 188g.''

HARTFORD STRIKE
 STILL ON, ASSERTS MACHlN.STS' AGENT
Vote to Return to Pratt & Whitney Co. tSFake''
 Says Egan.
Especial to The Farmer.)

Hartford, Nov. 22-Declarations that the men who voted to call off the strike at the Pratt & Whitney plant Saturday were hired to do that, that their numbers were infinitesmal as compared with the number of strikers, and that the strike at the plant is still on, were made today by John J. Elgan, general organizer of the International Association of Ma chinists.
 The men who met in a. session after tha tof the regular meeting of the strikers were about 20 in number They gave out the statement after ward. that the strike was off.
 ''The statement is incorrect regard ing the Pratt & Whitney strike de- clared MT. Egan. 'fIt was simply a move, we believe, put on the part of the manufacturers to create the ina pression that the strike had been called off
 -.This happens frequently, but it still deceives many. persons. The will of the body of the strikers is misrep- senteds s
 .In the New Haven, clock Go. strike we were up against the same condi- tions.''
 The strike at the Farrell foundry in Ansonia is still on, says MT. Egan.

TRIANGLE FILMS SET STANDARD IN
 MOVING PICTURES
Manager Callan Obtains Un- usual Attraction For
 Plaza Theatre.

When the Knickerbocker theatre in New york City opened few weeks ago with a.. photoplay program for which it announced a price of B per seat was to be charged, staid. old New York sat up and took notice and showed evidence of a real shock, but the Knick erbocker did not change it's policy and on the opening night and practically every night since the open- ing, thousands, of people have been turned away because of insufficient capacity.
 However, it might be well to state that the Knickerbocker did not turn away thousands of enthusiasts willing to pay $2 to see moving picture show but rather thousands who wanted. to see Triangle Films, for the New York -papers5had devoted much space to the organization of the Triangle Film Corporation which had obtained tbhe servicesSof the three greatest directors in the world. D. w. Griffith, producer of t'The Birth of a Nation''; Thomas H. sInce and Mack Sennett, originator of the famous Keystone comedies, and which has also placed under. contract more great stars than all the other feature companies combined.
 ThetS Triangle Corporation put over the biggest stunt in the history of talking about it. But owing to- the enoT1nous amount of money demanded by the corporation for the display of it's films and also the many restric- tions under which they were toN be shown, it was feared that only the larger cities, such as New York and Chicago, would be able to show the Triangle program And, as yet,a very few cities outside of the latter. named, have been able tp contract for the films.
 Manager Callan of the Plaza, who has been negotiating with the com pany3 eyer since the opening perform ance at the Knickerbocker theatre, has just signed contracts for Bridge port and he stated last. evening that he believed he could see his way clear to show the pictures in addition to the vaudebilI bill without making any change in the price schedule at his cosy playhouse, because of the thou sands of people who would be anx- 1ous to see every release of these world famous plays andgp4ayers.
 < A Triangle program comprises a five EfreeI dramatic play feafurfng one or more of it's many world famous stars and a. Keystone two reel subject to feature in addition O the regular pop u1ar players, such stage celebrities as Weber & Fields and Raymond Hitch cock, making a total of, seven reels with every change of show.
 Manager Ca11an ntendsAto change the time schedule of his zfheatre tso that the entire program may be shown at every performance, sincfudin both evening performances. and will make definite announ ncement of his policy later in the week.

THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY.

AS far as appearances go, the Thanksgiving holiday is not observed with the same feeling as of old. Church services are not well attend ed. Family prayer is a custom that is no longer common. There is lit- tie audible expression of the thankful heart.
 But the true value of suchS a holi- day lies in acts, not iii-thoughts or words. No doubt many more people than formerly receive substantial gifts Few persons would let 8 neigh boring family go hungry if their wants were known. Kind deeds zlilSe this are more in keeping with the real spirit of Thanksgiving than any for maJtty.
 This does not mean that the author Of salI good should be forgotten. The abundance of thanksgiving. the hap py reunion of kindred and friends. should make one realize better than ever that there is a great deal of sun shine, in life. The bowen that shas. sent all this good cheer into the world must be guided by love- even when it sends the discipline of pain. Thanks giving day should not be passed with out the silent prayer of recognition for all blessings. 4as-.- .s s xEarnt A dss fl4,es 6fsyst{s, xUs,r5

Three Cigarette Faults to Avoid

First, avoid cigarettes that don't just suit your own taste.
 Second, avoid those that bother your throat or tongue.
 Third, avoid those that make you feel mean" after smoking all you want.

We mean what we say for, when it comes to the taste, Fatir1as can't possibly please everybody-no cigarette can do that. But Fatimas do please more men than any other ciga- rette costing over Sc.
 That's one reason why you should try them.
 Another reason. is because they are so SENSIBLE-so free from any "after-feeling.'
 If you want to know exactly what a sensible" cigarette is, just try Fatimas by these two tests. Do that little. thing to-

lDENOUNCE GERMANY
 FOR HADLEY MURDER
London Newspapers Voice the Intense British Feeling Over
 the Shooting of Youth.

London. April 20.-Of the smaller incidents of the war none has stirred British feeling so deeply as what Sir Edward Grey calls the murder of young HadIey by Capt. Nicolay, Ger man officer, on a train from Berlin.
 Apparently some members of the German Government were ashamed of the facts, for although HadIey was shot on Aug. 3. neither his relatives nor the British authorities were able to obtain any particulars till Noven- ber.
 seIt is zabern all over again. says The Westminster Gazette, which goes on:
 "It is quite true that the German people were a good deal agitated over the Zabern incident, but it ended in a complete victory for Pruss1on mill tarisnn. We see. too, how in a wider sphere this first doc Urine is acted upon with most lament able consequences. When last Au- ization Germany declared war in order to be the first, and Lieutenant, now Ca ptain. Nicolay. shot HadIey in order to be first, just as at Zabern von F'orstner wounded the lame eobbler because, as the military court which acquitted von Forstner said, he could assume that he was going to be attacked and could not wait until the knife was in his ribs
 "By the way letting the Czar know that the Kaiser was Prussian od1- cer, a little delay and little consider atton might have saved the peace of Europe just as it might have saved the life of Hadley. Both were mur- dered by the spirit of German mill tarisfn. and of fr1ghtfuIness, of which almost every day yields some new manifestation.'
 Sir John Eard1ey-Wilnot, the clos est male relative of HadIey, is pre- pairing a detailed statement in reply to the German account, obtained

 The German Government reward ed the murderer for his cold-bIooded murder, but it concealed the dreadful story. Not until Nov 26 did inc murder come out, and not until April did the American Ambassador sue ceed in extracting the German state ment. It is evident that the Geruaa li government strove hard to suDnrAss the truth, which now sickens the world.
