CONTINENTAL TALK.

At the meeting in Buenos Aires re
Gently. there was suggested metho,
Of 'adio communication between the
countries OF this hemisphere which
has received approval by our state de
partment, says Boston Post. This. as
outlined in the statement made in the
United States senate, seems to have
the elements Of practicability and ef
nciency. 1t is proposed to divide the
territory embraced in the American
republics into zones of radio communi
cation, with one control station fol
each zone. which latter will receive
and relay radiograms to destination as
may be necessary and in accordance
with specific regulations drawn up BY
the committee. There will be one
main station for the entire hemisphere
located as nearly in a central position
geographically with reference to ali
the American republics as may be
practicable. The solidarity Of this
western continent has been intimateC
or advanced by nothing more directly
practical than this project.

Do 1t Now.

If with pleasure you are viewing any work a man is doing, If you like him or von love him, tell him now; Don't withhold your appreciation till the parson makes oration As he lies with snowy lilies o'er his brow; For, no platter how you shout it, he won't really care about it; He won't know how many teardrOps you have shed. If you think some praise is due him, uow's the time to slip it to him, For he can not read his tombstone when he's dead. More than fame md more than money is the comment kind and sunny, And the hearty, warm approval of a friend; For it gives to life a savor, and it makes you stronger, braver, And it gives you heart and spirit to the end. If he earns your praise-bestow it; if you like hin, let him know it; Let the words of true encouragement be said. Do not wait till life is over and he's underneath the clover, For he can not read his tombstone when he's dead!

VETERANS TO MEET.

The annual encampment of the Con- necticut Department, G. A. R., to be held in Guilford, the home of Depart ment Commander Charles Griswold, aext week, will be the 18th annual meeting, and it is expected that recom- nnendatiops will be made there for 8 suitable celebration of the golden jubi- Ice of the national G. A. R., which WAS organized November 20, 1866. Whatever plans the veterans may make for such an observance will be most heartily endorsed and entered into by the people of the state generally, and nothing that patriotic sentiment and patriotic affection for the old heroes san do will be found wanting in their efforts to make it memorable success.
 The leading candidates for Depart ment Commander are, present Patriotic Instructor John l.. Sake, of Waterbury and Henry J. Seeley, of Elias Howe Post, Bridgeport.

A resolution pledging sympathy. prayer, confidence and loyalty" to, President Wilson, "himself man of prayer, who is now under heavy burdens and is confronted by problems of worldwide import" was adopted Wednesday at the opening session i'm PeelSskill of the New York conference of the Methodist Episcopal church. There was considerable fenciug over the resolution. When it was offered motion to refer it to the committee on state and country, headed by Chancellor James R.

 There was much discussion of an. other motion to refer the resolution to special committee, also headed by Chancellor Day, aud it was finally de- cided to table the resolution.
 Later in the session it WAS again taken up and passed in open conference.

What the Other Fellows Say

Seven Respondent persons ended their own lives in New York inside of 24 hours, one of them being boy of IT years. Seems as though some doctor should discover an anti-toxin for the suicide germ.-Hartford Post.
 The house is evidently of the mind that the president should be given a chance to affix another veto to the immigration bill that calls for liter ary test for prospective citizens. The latest vote upon the bill shows the tendency in the lowest chamber and the senate is of about the same mind. -Ansonia Sentinel.
 John L. Sullivan again shows that he is a poor loser because he picked Moran to win the fight. The old Roman has never forgiven Corbett for beating him.-Meriden Journal.
 If we have wireless that won't work, airships that won't fly, or guns that won't shoot let us. discover. the in efficiency before the call to service.- Torrington Register.
 It is given out that the price of a cake of soap in Mexico City is now 60 cents. There is traveller in Hartford who paid $1O for a shave in the city of Guatemala. It makes a difference what you pay with. .-Hartford Courant.
 It's always cheerful to read about the lucky ones roaming around the South without overcoats and the rest of us wondering if the coal supply will hold out to keep us from freezing. Bridge port Post.
 A writer in the New York World of Sunday says that Charlie Chaplin, the motion picture star, is the highest paid employee in the world and that while in New York for month the most he spent was four weeks.- A regular Harry Lauder. Eagle.
 Ex- President Taft has asserted in effect that he sees jolt coming to this country. But he should not be un- mindful of the fact that this season has been an off one for prophets, political, grounding and otherwise. e.-Bridgeport Telegram.
 Poor old ground hog; he has failed to support his reputation by facts, this year at any rate. After such total failure to make good it Is doubtful if confidence can ever be placed in him again. But we'll forgive him if spring sunshine will melt away the snow and ice and make way for flowers. This is the winter of our discontent and we have had reason for the grouch. Shore Line Times.

THE POLITICAL POT.

Next week, Tuesday evening and Wednesday, the republican state con- vention for electing fourteen delegates to the republican national convention in Chicago, will be held. Political talk and political forecasts are becom- ing plentiful and cheap among those who are given to speculation, and as usual the dopesters vary widely in their prognostications. If all the can- didates mentioned for places on the delegation could be elected. Conpecti. cut alone would swamp Chicago when the conye ntion meets. The names most consistently mentioned as probable del egates are J. Henry Roraback, Charles Hopkins Clark, Col. Isaac Ullman. Judge William F. Henney, Congress- man Edwin W. Higgins, Charles F. Brooker, and possibly Senators Bran- degee and Mclean. The name of former President Taft is less frequently men, tioned than formerly, in this connec. tion.
 The possible choice of the Connecti. cut delegation, as candidate for the presidential nomination, is all specula- tion. Chairman Roraback, of the state committee, being interviewed in Hart ford. Tuesday, is quoted as saying the Connecticut delegation would doubtless go unpledged. 1.-The recent Root -Roose- velt luncheon has had no effect on Con- necticut," he said, "and the delegates from this state will go to Chicago with open minds to vote for whoever seems to be the best Republican to nominate.
 A current political story states that there is general feeling that the state politicians who are directing the des- tinies of the party approve of the can- didacy of Justice Hughes, and that a straw ballot of the state delegation would show him to be the favored can didate; also that they think Root is now practically out of the running, and that it is considered probable that Hughes is the choice of J. Henry Rora- back, the state chairman, though he has not publicly expressed any prefer ence for any candidate. He said few days ago that Justice Hughes seems to he very popular here in Connecticut, as well as around in nearby states, though he would not admit that he is more popular than some of the other candi- dates. MT. Roraback was asked if he saw any sentiment for Colonel Roose- welt. and he said he didn't.

Discovering a Friend.

If sorrow never happened and trouble never came The only thing you'd know about your neighbor is his name, If all your days were bright and fair and certain was your place You'd only know a fellow by the features of his face. Acquaintances upon this earth are all you'd ever own If care had always passed you by and grief you'd never known. Time was I used to nod to one who lived across the way, I knew his name and he knew mine we passe the time of day, But nothing did he mean to me and nothing I to him Until one morning sorrow came and all my world was grim. saw his face, felt his hand and knew he'd come to lend The strength I needed, and right then found had a friend. Iris not in sunshine friends are made, but when our skies are gray, The splendid souls that men possess are never on display. We cannot tell what lies behind the nasty nod or smile Nor what of worth will come from ii in just little while; We only know that when we face the cares that life must send We realize the passer.by has changed into friend.

OUR FRIENDS.
BY EMMA RoDEMEYER WAIT.

Of all the joys that heaven sends.
 Naught can excel the gift of friends; Good friends, who smile when life is bright. And stand as true in blackest night. Friends who will share the joy you fell And by your side in knee True friends who hold you by the hand When all has failed that you had planned. Distance and time may silence make; Not time tide friendship break Its golden chain made to last And twill live when life is past. Then hold them fast, grudge not the giving; They what make our life worth living. And rich is he whose friends are many, And poorest he who has not any. So grappe true friends to your heart, And never, never from them part For of all joys that heaven sends, Naught can excel the gift of friends.

A BALD-HEADED PRINCIPLE.

The attention of the Bald-Head Clut of America has been called to the re port from Chicago, that 8 perfectly strong and healthy man who was anxious to enter the regular army was refused by recruiting sergeant, on the ground that he had no hair on the tor of his head, and that bald headed mer are peculiarly liable to become affected by the heat on the Mexican border, where the candidate desired to go, ir pursuit of Villa.
 Happily" says the Waterbury
 Republican, "the president of the
 Bald-Hea Club of America hap.
 pens to be Cong. P. Davis Oakley,
 of Hartford, and this state, and
 congress is now in session. We can
 count upon him to rise on 8 ques-
 tion of privilege and address few
 burning remarks on the compat-
 ability of badness and soldering.
 He will tell them that the history
 of war abounds with examples of
 bald headed men who won distinc-
 on for their strategy and bravery,
 from the days of Julius Caesar,
 who was slightly bald, down to
 those of old Israel Putnam, who
 didn't have hair to his head"
 We shall confidently look to Con- gressman Oakley to heed the above sug- gestion and to enlist the eloquence of Congressman Hill, who is an honorary with ex. President Taft, of the B. H. O. of A. And we have it, on the authority of President Oakley, him. self, that there are numerous other bald headed statesmen in the halls of Con- gress, who will doubtless rally to the Oakley standard in championing the God given right of bald-headed men to fight if they want to. There is bald headed principle at stake here, and President Oakley may be trusted to stand by it to the bitter end.

 Canaan, April l.
 The Constitution of Connecticut, Article 6, Section 3, provides as fol- lows:
 ''The privileges of an elector
 shall be forfeited by a conviction
 of bribery. forgery, perjury, duel-
 ling, fraudulent bankruptcy, theft
 or other offence for which an in
 famous punishment is inflicted. "
 According to Supreme Court inter- pretation of infamous, Volume 2S, Chapter 393, an "infamous crime'' is generally held to be one which makes infamous the one who has committed it." and among the examples of in- famous crimes is cited, "Embezzlement and making false entries by an officer of National Bank
 The legal source of our information states that conviction of an infamous crime operates automatically to forfeit the privileges of an elector so convicted, and is of the opinion that the restoration of such forfeited rights is within the province of the state legislature, in &C., cordance with Article IT, of the State Constitution, U975 amendment:)
 "The General Assembly shall have power. by vote of two thirds of the members of both branches, to restore the privileges of an elector to those who may have forfeited the same by con- viction Of crime''

When John D., Jr., Was a Boy.


 'It's no wonder young John D. Jr.. made a hit out there in Colorado in a very nest of enemies. Young John D. was always a resourceful chap"
 The speaker was Baptist deacon of Cleveland. He went on:
 "Once, when he was little boy, John D. Jr., said to his father:
 ." Father, Georgie Smith is going to have birthday party, and I've got to give him present.
 "But John Sr., had been attending a congressional antitrust investigation that day, and his cross-examination had ruffied up his temper, so he snarled: 70, it's present. here and a present there all the time. I'm just about sick of it,
 'John D. Jr-'s face fell, but he said nothing. He just turned and walked out of the room.
 Well, the next day things were better at the investigation, and John ID. ST., regretted his harshness toward his little son. He came home that evening and said genially:
 "'Go look in my overcoat pocket, laddie. You'll find nice present there for your friend Smiths birthday party
 e It's too late now, father he said. T licked him today so's he wouldn'b invite me. "-Washington Star.
