CWritten Specially for The 9ulletin.) un his pleasant home with his som in-law and daughter, MT. and Mrs. William D. Kicker, on Peck street, Alexander Proctor has been recalling old- time shfpbuild1ng days in Norwich, as suggested by recent references in this column.
 R4r Proctor is one Of the few now living who worked at the shipbuilding industry when the banks of the Thames river were alive with active and enterprising workers in this line. As he puts it, he 'is S6 years young" vigorous and alert mentally, and is able to talk entertainingly on the sub- ject, remembering as he does the many staunch and worthy citizens employed both at carpentering and machine work during the time just preceding and throughout the Civil war Mir. Proctor learned his trade in his native Scotland, and before coming to Norwich was employed by the famous firm of shipbuilders, the Hoag & Dele mater company of New York There MT. Proctor had valuable experience, helping in the construction of some of the great ships which made history in their time. It was at this famous yard that the engines were built for the Monitor and the Erickson.

Almost any kind of error can find lodgment in a man after the bats have begun to cl1irp in his belfry. We talk about the dangers in tH1e wild theories and reckless impulse of the mob, but these have their roots farther back in the intelligence that has stagnated. It Is after they have for long periods, almost ceased to think at all that men may be led to think wrong.
 Let each child be taught eand en- couraged to use the mind that God snas given him. Help him early to form the habit of logically organizing into great life principles the myriad fAcEs taaatf life fpresents. Help him to test in thescr1cfble of his own, thought and experience the claims that other men make. That is to follow the mo- bic counsel.of the Apostle: Prove all things, hold fast to that whicE1 is good.
 2 One is skepe from good many hu- niIiafious auds mistakes, drst and last, if he keeps thinking. The world pre- seneS 4o him. moreover spectacle of continually fficreasitg wonder and de- light. By and by heefeels tl1a& he can spell out a. secret for two of the r1yB- teTfesso9 creation. and knusvB, with Kepier.s The way of thinking Gods thoughts after Him.

 amy holds sway England has no more use for the principles we cher ish than has Germany; and all the European powers would like to see forever crushed out the freedom which our forefathers established in the name of God and humanity One potentate has told his people that by becoming Americans they degrade civ iliZation; and the rest of them would doubtless endorse this. If we are Americans we must be eternally on the defensive, or we shall be lost.
 The one surprising thing about the very worst pictures we have ever seen at the movies is that word censored g 1u1is means, of course, that the pie ture has been passed by a competent board of critics, and as there is noth- ing educative or clean or particularly amusing in the picture passed, the soul of humor seems to glow from this one word-censored. A thing which has no good excuse for existence that has been passed by board of com petent judges leaves a pretty stiff in- ference of incompetence at the end oi the exhibit. Perhaps the censors are so afraid they may be considered ab- normally prudish or weak livered by the hearted, broad minded open handed, red-blooded spectators ir vulgarity and horse-play, that they dc not dare do what an active conscience or a clean heart would prompt ther to. Tt might be enlightening to set plan to have their pictures appended to the picture censored just as an ev. idence of good faith.

the Hunter will become popular ves@ ael with the business men and the travelling community generally.
 A foot note adds: The new prope1- Ter steamship Hunter, Capt Rogers, of the Pioneer Line, arrived at this port yesterday from New York. She brings a good freight and passenger list. We are indebted to Purser Grant for files of late New York papers
 It is an interesting coincidence that First Assistant Engineer William Kicker, referred to in the Savannah account of the Norwich built steam ship, was the father of William D. Kicker. the West Side druggist, and that the younger MT. Kicker married Miss Estella Proctor, daughter Of AL exander Proctor.
 Possibly there are relatives of the other ships officers living in and about Norwich. These brief chronicles o1 the days when this active town built ships, and sent them or on unknown waters, have already started up some pleasant comments and inQuiries re- garding early Norwich shipmasters builders and navigators.

Sunday Morning Talk
KEEP THINKING.

Legally, a man is alive till he is ready for the undertaken. Really, he is alive only as long as he continues to think. When the mind ceases opera ton. to all intense and purposes, life ceases, even though that machine call ed the body runs on for a few years more.
 Over his mental activities one has a large degree of control, far larger tI-an that over his bodily functions. To bid your human toiler to keep breathing is an idle command, since nature, sooner or later, is bound to check that process of his physique once and for all. But never in the length of this earthly span, or beyond it, need mans mind cease to do its appointed work-save in sickness or in sleep. There is every inducement and necessity for him to keep think ing.

In che observance of Mothers day a1fUsion was made to 'the mother liv- ing and the mother dead" I do not like to think of mother in this way. After God by his breath has created living soul can that soul be to Us a dead soul. The mother soul is first occupied in. a service of love to God and man and then enters upon a glor- flied existence in the broader and bet ter spiritual realm. Mother is a spir- it here--a spirit there. We look back and sees her living in loving service with us, and why should we not look forward sand conceive of siher living in her heavenly home ready to receive Us with thes same smile and the same welcome she had for us here? Who put this gap intos the spiritual life of the human souI-w11o hung dark loved kindred-wS1o dared to thus aueergthe hope and faith of human heart. Thes dead were srafSed 1by caIl- 1ng the spirit back to the. unrespon- stve body. sThe body was not Taza- rus, but the spirit which recognized the name. The mother is always 8
 living mother-too often sacxfdced here always g1orifted there.

A suggestion of this sort Is most ap- prcpriatefy taken, of course, by those who need if. The advice is not meant for nervous, introspective folk who worry out laborious days and finally take their problems to bed with them It is for those to whom worry is a stranger, whose mental outlook be- comes continually more restricted and ualfy more sluggish with the passing years.
 If one may venture to say so, there are muftitudes whose minds appear to have suffered the penalty that at taches to diSuse. Examination of a 1 cross section of the brains of count less wel1-fed Americans might reveal these tissues as threatened with atro- phy. The thinking apparatus has grown soft and flabby, as any muscle l whatever suffers from lack of exer- else.
 mental patrimony that it approaches the vanishing point, waSteful pro- cess in which many youth is en- gagged It is generally later rather l than earlier that the folly of the waste l becomes apparent.

 world. He awakes to find that nc l such place awaits him because he ha.
 never qualified to fill it. He has beer suffering an unconscious loss of pow, er./ Instead of advancing he has stooC l still.
