President Wilson in speech yesterday de-
clared that there is nothing in American his
tory to show that compulsory military training
is contrary to the best traditions of the coun-
try. If he could have heard the self-enlight-
ened talk during the last session of the legis-
lature, when a number of speakers understood
to prove the military training bill surrender
to the ogre of militarism, he would have been
set Alright What they did to American history
was wonder!

them definitely! Certainly there are enough
engineers and near engineers who have had a

deal to spoil that Nuuanu broth!

ers desire to remain in their present
schools. -.

The New Haven Journal Courier is responsible for this, Here's new gub- ernatorial candidate in the field, and no one less than Colonel Robert O.

 We think Bob Eaton. is as good as anyone to head this old state, and we've begun to push his candidacy, T said Post master Frost yesterday. And the threat may be taken with degree of plausi- bllity, for Colonel Eaton is strong with the members of the Grange all over the state. He has prestige with the state leaders, and is dominant in the councils of the party, and might, in addition to all these qualifications as gubernator- ial candidate, serve as a compromise candidate, inasmuch as he might be ex- pected to receive the entire vote of the New Haven county delegation. for Colonel Ullman would probably release the New Haven delegates to him wheR he would not give them to Blakeslee.

Camp Fire GlrIs.

The activities of the Wangum Camp Fire Girls for the past month, were re- ported upon by Margaret Vosburgh at the Council Fire meeting held last week Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Lyles, who received the girls most cordially and gave them a royal good time.
 The meeting was opened by the in. troduction of two new members, Ethel Barrett and Edith Lindell. who were greeted with hearty applause by both the "Hikis" and the "Nishimis. !" The roll was called by Guardian "Ahma" and each girl answered to her Indian name by responding 'Kolah. l" A blaze was kindled upon the hearth by appointed fremakers, who in the past had won this privilege, the other members singing encouragingly to the flames, meantime. Honor beads were then distributed. Miss Sarah Adam talked to the girls about their bird neighbors, telling them how they could feed them through the winter so that they would remain tn air friends during the summer She passed amongst them a humming birds nest, explaining that the eggs are the size of a pea, there never being more than two, and that baby humming birds are no larger than a humble bee Some photographs of the paintings of birds by Miss Bridges were, through the courtesy of Miss Adam, studied by the girls. Those having fed birds since MT. Walter King Stones talk on the subject, told their experiences. One girl received an honor for having succeeded in attract. ing four kinds of birds to a lunch counter which she had arranged for them. 1t is hoped that many birds will find safe homes in Canaan through the winters when so many often die of hunger.
 The ceremonial over, progressive game was played, each girl being pre-. sented with tally card having on it picture of birds being fed by friends Two prizes were awarded, the first to Beatrice Christmas and the second to Anna Abbe. Ice cream and cake. prettily decorated with flags and pictures in celebration of George Wash Ington's birthday were served and the meeting adjourned with cheers in honor of the hostess.

Cow improvement.

The Editor of The News: We are pleased to report that two more herds have been added to the Waterbury Cow Improvement Association, those of MT. H. B. Chase and MT. F. $. Ives, both of Litchfield, Conn. Even though with but twenty nine day month, we are still able to keep our standard for the honor list at the high point at which we started. One individual, Grade Holstein belonging to MT. Bucking ham, has made even better record than she made in January, producing five pounds more fat on less grain.
 Tn several instances whole herds have shown improvement this month over last, and we trust that the future will bring forth better results for all the. members.
 Applications have come to us from many quarters from owners of herds for membership in the Association, but until the first of June we shall be un- able to accommodate more. At that time, however, we expect to be in a position to double the membership, making two Associations. This will bring the members of each nearer to- gether and enable them to meet from time to time to discuss questions of inn portance to them.

BROTHERHOOD SUPPER
Feast at East Canaan with Speeches
 by Higgins and Maylott.

The union brotherhood supper given under the auspices of the East Canaan Congregational church brotherhood, Friday evening, was no less enjoyable and interesting than any of it's prede cessors. Nearly thirty members of the brotherhoods from this village attended, and the East Canaan members turned out we'll. A number of ladies were present to listen to the speaking, in the auditorium of the church, after the feast, which was served in the social room. The supper was provided and served by the ladies of the church, who looked assiduously after the com. fort and wants of the guests. There was variety and abundance on the menu, and everybody ate with relish and appreciation. At the head table sat Rev. Messrs. Fuller, Maylott, Gil. lette, Travis and Crichton, Hon. E. s. Roberts and Hon. R. T. Higgins. The blessing was invoked by Rev. Mir. Travis.
 When all had eaten their fill, Mir. Fuller invited the company to repair to the auditorium for the "feast of req son." In the absence of choIr or glee club the audience sang familiar hymns, in which all joined heartily.
 MT. Fuller then formally welcomed the guests, and introduced as the first speaker, Hon. R. T. Higgins, of Win. sted, chairman of the Connecticut Pub lie Utilities Commission, who spoke on Individual Preparedness for the Battle of Life. He took for his theme, Hon. esty, Sobriety and Industry, under which headings he gave forceful, ear nest and effective discourse along the line of conduct essential to the attain ment of success in life. At many of the speakers patriotic passages he was interrupted by liberal applause and at the close of his fine address he received a round of cordial applause.
 The next speaker, Mir. Maylott, of Derby, former pastor, who is held in affectionate esteem by his old parish. toners and the local brotherhoods gen. orally, received an enthusiastic wei. come, and spoke on the subject, "Three Peas in Pod. !" He designated the peas as Purpose, Plan and Push, and spoke Interestingly of the manly traits that are most admired by the youth. His remarks were listened to with in tense interest and cordially applauded
 Commissioner Higgins was enter tained at the home of MT. H. O. Stevens during his stay.
