Motorized R. F. D.
(New Haven Register. )

(NeW Haven Reg1ster.)
 / The constitutionally weary horse of
 the rural mail carrier has been for a
 score of years. familiar. object on the
 country roads. It was an object of
 pity, and no wonder. Many a carrier
 has had a route of between 20 and 30 miles over all sorts of roads, most of them sandy or muddy and hilly. Shorter routes they had to cover twice a. day. Now anybody who knows horses knows that they, won't stand a daily travel of more than 30 miles, generally with a heavy load, and grow fat over 1t. Some carriers have sup ported two horses, but hardly any of them could afford to do so on the pay they got. ,,--- r.. ?: e.-v~.~ .. ..~...,.
 To the solution of this difficulty the motor vehicle was welcomed. It would do the work quicker than any horse could do it. Its cost for opera tion and maintenance was lower than the cost of maintaining a horse and wagons and harnesses. It suffered nothing in cold and extreme heat and storm. And nowadays it is satisfac- torilv reliable. The postoffice depart ment has just put into service 2oS or these vehicles on its rural delivery routes. Before this it has had a good many in use, and many of the carriers have had their own machines. It means better service, more efficient service and no need to pity the poor horse. For that matter the poor man has an easier time of it than does the carrier on the average city route. Moreover, the increase of the parcel post business has made mechanical means of delivery imperative.

Rebuilding Johns Hopkins.
(Boston Transcript.)

What the Johns Hopkins of the past has been is an old story. As a small university it has ever stood for the best in higher learning. Intensive work has always been it's aim. That the expansion sure to follow the re- moval to Homewood will work no change in the ideals vigorously ad- hered to in the past is made plain by the present plans of the authorities. hopkins will never be a large univer- slty, provision being made for not more than 2,OoO students. The class rooms are to be small, accommodat- Ing not more than 30 students each. With the understanding that the size or the classes is to remain constant, even lf the university reaches the maximum enrolment. The line of de- marcation between undergraduate and graduate work is to be sharply drawn !n all departments, and tho oormltories, which will follow the
 quad' system, will not provide room TOT more than 200 students each. Fiv.e years ago Homewood was virtually a Wilderness, today it has been laid out according to the best landscape arch ltectual ideas of the day. In another nVe years, if the money is forthcom- Ing, the new university will probably De completed.

War A Stimulus To Invention.
(Bridgeport Standard

War time is prolific of inventions The people in England and other Flu ropean cities subject to the v1slts or zeppelins and other hostile a1rcra1t are continually scanning the heavens to catch the first sign of the. approach ing enemy, and the twisting of thelr necks and the straining of their eyes has become painful and threatens chronic troubles which might be ser1- Ous for the remainder of life. TO obviate this an arrangemen has been devised which may be called a sky periscOpe. It consists of a com bin- ation of mirrors by which the holder can scan the entire heavens with his head in natural position and with on special strain upon the eyes. The relief afforded is great and watching for hostile airships becomes an easy matter.
 We must therefore, tally one for the English inventors. But there is something being done here also. In the coke fields there is a by-product from coke-ma king which contains much of the possibilities of the dye stuffs that our textile manufacturers use. MT. Edison has devised a way hv which these desired qualities may be obtained. and made valuable and, as the supply is inexhaustive the dye stuff problem would seem to be solv- cd with less of trouble than was an- ticipated." This by-product of the coke oven must be cheap and per hapsy' it may enable us, by help of the genius of Edison to make our dye stuffs successfully in competition with the cheap labor and materials of; Germany.

 Let us insist that England shall not override. our rights in this matter of cotton, or in anything else. but is it not; worse than foolish for the South to join. in a propaganda which is c . -idently inspired and which cannot fail to do damage if it is kept up to the point where our own people and the nation. in general will be persuaded that the South is on the verge of bankruptcy?.~ a.e-. . s- s

park on nights when band concerts are

park on nights when band concerts are
 staged.
 tas Numerous complaints have been lodged against the actions of some young boys who go to Walnut Hill on band concert nights, take up positions
 in secluded parts of the park, just off the walk leading from West, Main
 street and make %insiaious remarks at
 passersby.
 This thing should be brought to a
 sudden end. A bevy of plain clothes
 men should be despatched to Walnut
 Hill next Wednesday night and gather in few of these offenders, for the edi- fication of their imitators. One good example might change the. whole status of things.
 It is deplorable that such actions are allowed to go on in city like New Britain To begin, with, g stranger gets g bad idea of the environs if he IS greeted by a hooting band of hood lunns who make. seemingly witty re-. -o-~AS e~oooI 1AAo pOI OIooIl0A dPPCcA SdI1SOS or casts infections upon any one ac- companying him. This practice was in vogue many years ago in small towns; but it has been srelegated to- oblivion in large municipalities.
 Young, ladies. accompanied by their escorts are the ones who. bear the brunt of this sort xof%abuse.a It is sem- barrassing,,: to say the, least, for young couple to run the gauntlet of chattering boys with the gentleman being prevented by etiquette from stopping on his way and administering suitable Punishment. To this end, a man in this position needs help, and the police are the ones to afford such protection. If mothers and fathers have the proper interests of their boys at heart they will warn them against pursuing such rowdys tactics as have marked the concerts at Wal. nut Hill in the past two weeks. There are only a few isolated bands of row. dies in the city and these can be dis posed of in summary fashion if the police undertake the work.

 l.. M. Tarr, the New Haven weather observer, puts the official United States seal of disapproval on the theory that the war in Europe is re- sponsible for the meteorological ec- centricities of the past few months MT. Tarr has issued a statement in which he declares f1atly that our weather is made in America and that the use of explosives in Europe has nothing to do with the case.
 : We hear very little of "rain-mak- | ing' these days, but it used to be a fairly prosperous employment, not unakin to the gold brick industry, in certain rural and western sections of the country There are still people who believe that bombarding the skies with dynamite will jar the moisture from the clouds. If you are a doubt CT, explain why it always showers at the end of the Glorious Fourth .or always used to shower in the good, old explosive days before the alienists established the essential insanity of our methods of celebrating a birth day by blowing ourselves to pieces and shaking high heaven with the reverberation of the suicide.
 Now if a little, local explosiveness once year was enough to bring down 8 local rain why should not a worldwide and continuous explo- siveness, multiplied to the nth power, bring down a worldwide rain. Per- 5fectly logical, except for these scien- tific pests who are always taking the joy out of argument with their vil- lainous facts and figures. MT Tarr says that it hasn't rained overmuch hereabouts. On the contrary there has been deficiency of moisture since March, compared with the average precipitation July gave New Haven much less than the normal quantity of rain. And there you are.
 But he mentioned, gallant little August is manifestly starting out to, equa1ize the averages. '"~

 In most things the escape from Victorian frippery and prudery and quiescence is a blessing. But crouuet deserves to be retainer or resuscitat- ed. For the tired man or woman, who seeks wholesome and restful recrea- tion, there is nothing better than a mild contest amid the wickets under the apple trees. It may be reminis- cent of crinoline, gaiters and beavers, but it is none the less good. The best the ~Victorians accomplished was in the way of mildness. A touch of mild ness in these mad rushing times would be definite benefit When one is tired of reading or talking about the war what could be better con- trast or refreshment than game Of CrOQuet.?

The next congress will be confront ed with "a condition and not a theo- ry'' That condition is a deficit that amounted to s35, 100000 on June 1 and which by July 1 had reached s16,OOO,O00 more. Let it frankly be admitted that the loss of revenue from imports is resp onsible for much of this huge sum. While this is true, it is also true, nevertheless, that unless congress repeals one clause of the wretced Underwood tariff law the deficit will reach alarming pro- portions That is the section of the bill that puts sugar on the free list on May 1, 1916. The revenue from sugar. in 1914 was s61, 100000, and with this vast sum lost congress will be obliged to find some other source of revenue.
