betterment Of working conditions anC
for the safety of the travelling public
Norwalk Local No. 476 Of the Interna-

of closed vestibules, the unions loca

The letter follows:
Norwalk, Connecticut,
October 25, 1916
Whereas, we, the members of Lo-
cal No. 476, of the International
Association Of Street Railway EN-
pIoyes, are not forgetful of the
kindly acts of our friends, we re-
spectfully call the attention Of our
members throughout Fairfield coun-

of all the people who patronize
street railway cars to the efforts Of
Hon. jeremiah Donovan Of Nor

which resulted in vestibules being
ordered placed on all street cars
for the protection of operatives and
the public.
Whereas, Jeremiah Donovan as a
member Of the Senate of Connecti-

in 1903, 1905 and 1907 for our well

the comfort Of the general public,
we desire at this time to ask our
members and the general public to
think back to the time when there
were mo windshie'ds or vestibules
on street cars: to picture the mo-
torrnen and conductors facing sleet,
wind and hail in zero weather; and
to remember the icy platforms and
cold cars resulting from the lack
of vestibules.

er. Under the pressure of insistent
questioning each has at last admitted
that had either been president at the
time the Lusitania was sunk each
would have taken a course which in
evitably would have brought on war
between the United States and Ger
many.
Colonel Roosevelt said at Battle
Creek on October 1st, discussing the
Lusitania: 'sYou ask me what would
have done--I would have seized every
interned German ship
On March 9, 1915, the following
message was flashed by wireless from
Berlin to Sayville, Long Island: "Ger-
many declared war on Portugal at
$3.50 p. m. yesterday. The German
declarauon,' says the Overseas News
Agency, emphasizes the fact that this
step was made necessary by the re-
cent illegal seizures Of German ships
in Portuguese ports, which is the
gravest sort Of breach Of neutrality
and of special treaties"
Such rash and reckless actions by
Mr.. Roosevelt would have precipitat-
ed immediately an unnecessary and
bloody war between the United States
and Germany.
The United States has treaties with
Germany which would have been out
ragged if Mr.. Roosevelt, as president,
had seized the ships which happened

However, in accepting this Ameri-
can note on the surface, demanding
the abandonment of its submarine
warfare against passenger and

said such vessels shall not be sunk
without warning and without provid-
ing for the safety of passengers and
crews, unless the ships attempt to-
escape or offer resistance" fA
No condition was made as to arm

The filing of the DeItchland's man.
ifest was awaited with curiosity. Cap
tain Koenig, estimating the cargo to
reach $10,000,O00 in value, said it
consisted largely of drugs and dye
stuffs, but there were possibly securi-
ties and jewels among the consign-
ments. AS the Deutschland on her
trip to Baltimore carried only $780,
900 worth Of freight which bulked as
large as her present shipments, it was.
$40, 100000 valuation was represented
by securities or stones.
Henry G. Hilken, of Baltimore, pres
ident of the Eastern Forwarding Co.,
said today he was without exact in
formation on this subject. Dr. George
Aherns, an attache of the German en-
bassy, and President Hilken went
aboard the Deutschland today to greet
her returned skipper.
The Deutschland's captain refused
a plea that he allow the public to visit
his craft. None but government or
city officials might enter the enclo-
sure, he said, and the restrictions that
prevailed at Baltimore were place%
in effect again.

Letters Just Issued Strange

Years Ago When Hills
Spokesman Assured Gen

Desperate because the dead

it speaks OF the necessity OF certain

we will complete an organization

what it means toward the success

the judicious manner in which
every dollar raised by this COM

May Robson Corning to the Davis

So many laughs are compressed in- to the three acts Of The Making Over of Mrs. Matt that it is almost one continuous gale that nightly greets May Robson and her company of play CTS and their Cheery company.

But she has put herself unreservedly in the hands If a New York maid and is bravely suffering the consequences Her tor lures include a revision downward by he diet and exercise route, and a sand papering of the westerner. A son, who has left college and is taking his 1rst look at life. will supply the heart interest for Mrs. Matt; and a sweet, young glrls of whom the father dis proves, will furnish the heart interest for the son. The story reaches home and will be told in the clever dialogue hat James Forbes has provided. Mrs. Matt is adjusting herself to her new grandeur and confides in her maid that [ was difficult to pick out the furni- .ure-there were so many Louis to shoose from. One of the Louis took 70 religion and the other to furni- :ure. Her bedroom is furnished in one of these, and she says, q often wonder what Louis would think of my Omaha underwear"F FShe says she likes he library because the bindings are 70 cheerful. Miss Robson always ra- Hates good cheer. good fun and her pathos will always be found very real, Tn the course of her transformation, she promises to wear some handsome gowns to demonstrate the fine feathers .heory.

THE ROYAL WAY.

Dear laughing eyes, I will not pray That God shall never send you tears; That clCudlesS sunshine, day by day, Shall brig hten all your coming years. I pray that still through cloud and rain Your inner depths may hold their

 And under happiness or pain You find the Fathers meaning bright, Reading in all life's mingled good Your title Of high WoEnanhoed. Dear gir1ish hands, will not choose The softest daintiest tasks for you; God send you strength to give and use, God send his work for you to do. The sacred ministry to need,
 The round of household toil and care, The binding up of hearts that bleed. The glrding up of hearts that dare The labor of loves law made good In royal years of womanhOod Dear dancing feet. I would not make Your Path all smooth from thorn and
 brier,
 The climbing road be yours to take, The thorn-set. splendid struggle

 God give you still life's springtime
 soft,
 Never contest with what is past: God grant you through earths weariest To walk undaurted to the last; Climbing tFe steeps of hard-won good To heavens height of womanhOod.
