ROOSEVELT ANDSONS
 WILL GO TO FRONT
"Terrible Teddy" Plays Wilson in
 Preparedness" Statement

Oyster Bay, L. l., April 24-Coloncl Theodore Roosevelt gave out a state 1 ment last night in which he held President Wilson and his advisers guilty of a "crime against the na- t1on' in failing to prepare the coun- try against the emergency of war With Germany or any other world power. The Colonel said:
 Men are saying that they stand behind the president or by the pres ident. I wish to speak for the men who in the event of war will stand in front of the president and between him and the foreign enemy; and who, therefore, will stand between danger and the men who are behind or be- side the president.
 ''These are the men who will go to the war at once if there is war with Germany, or with any other great power, and who feel, as do that we would far rather go to war unprepared than see our women and children murdered with inpunity and the honor of the flag stained.
 ''But it is a wicked thing that the folly of our rulers in obeying the behests of the peace-at-any-price peo- pie and of the apostles of anti-pre- paredness, should make the sacrifice either useless or else needlessly and appallingly wasteful in blood.
 "In the event of such a war my four sons will eo and one. and per haps both. of my sOns-in-law; will go myself; the young kinsf1olk and friends of my sons will go; so my words are spoken with my eyes open.
 "It is of small consequence what happens to us of the older generation; but when I think of the young men my heart grows bitter that their fine and gallant young lives should be sacrificed, not to the nations need but to the nations folly.
 "I would far rather see them dead than see them finch from their duty when the honor of our people is concerned. But if we now go to war these young men and all their fel- lows will die in thousands of fever and dysentery and lung trouble in the camps, because we have not prepared in advance. because they and those who would lead and care for them have not been trained in advance.
 Sees Butchcry Ahead.
 "They will be butchered needlessly in battle because we have failed to prepare masses of artillery and ma chine guns and motor trucks and shells and aeroplanes, and have failed to provide and train the men who shall manage all the formidable and delicate mechanism of war.
 "Twenty-one months have passed since the great war began, and dur ing all this time we have not pre- pared in even the smallest degree in order if possible, to avert war from us; or. if it could not be averted, to wage it efficiently and successfully.
 "The pacifsts and anti-prepared- ness people have had their will and our rulers at Washington have bowed to them and left us helpless and with

GOOD WORK.
Proper Food Makes Marvellous
 Changes.

Providence is sometimes credited with directing the footsteps by so simple a way as the reading of food advertisement.
 A lady in Mo. writes, "I was com- pelled to retire from my school teach ing because 1 was broken down with nervous prostration.
 'I suffered agony in my back and was in a dreadfully nervous condi- ton, irritable, with a dull, heavy headache continually, had no appe- tite and could scarcely digest any thing. I was unable to remember for my work.
 "One day, as if by providence, read the testimonial of lady whose symptoms were much the same as mine, and she told of how Grape Nuts food had helped her. so I con- cluded to try it.
 "I began with Grape-Nuts, a little fruit, and cup of Postum. l stead fly improved in both body and mlnd. Grape-Nuts has done more for ne than all the medicine I have ever taken. I am now we'll again and able to do anything necessary in my work.
 My mind is clearer and my body stronger than ever before. There S a Reason.' Name given by Postupl Co.,. Battle Creek, Mich.
 Ever read the above letter. A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human interest.

TO J. IRVING WHITE.
Popular Member of Cross Players
 Tendered Banquet at ElIxS' Home.

Song and story marked the farewell banquet rendered by admiring friends to J. Irving White last Saturday night at the Elks' home upon the occasion of the character actors leaving New Britain. MT.

The banquet Saturday night was a testimonial to his popularity.
 His Honor, Mayor George A. Quig- ley, was an invited guest, and deliv- cred clever speech, tribute to the character of MT. White. Howard Steele, former tax collector, followed the mayor. Exalted Ruler Wells Foster, who presided as toastmaster' also waxed eloquent, after Whlch the honor guest of the evening, MT. Whlte' delivered a message of thanks, told several stories, gave some character sketches. and sang several songs. "Johnnv'' Crean came all the way from Waterbury to preside at the piano.

blind fatuity they said they did this in the interests of peace
 When will our people learn that the peace of unpreparedness IS the peace of coWardice and folly, and may at any time lead to overwhelming dis aster?
 Fourteen months ago we notified Germany that if she did whatever since she has done and continued to do, we would hold her to strict ac- countab1lity. Such language could only be justified if imm ediately ard in thorough going fashion we had bent our every energy to the task of pre- pairing, and therefore showing that we meant what we said and that we possessed both the will and the power to make our words good
 Such a course would not have in- creased it would have greatly di- unfinished, the chances of war. But we sat supine. We took not one step to prepare. Naturally Germany did not treat us seriously; we misled her.
 Now, fourteen months afterward. we say that we were serious. If Ger many now does as we wish, it will, as I have said before, be proof positive that Germany would have promptly yielded if fourteen months we had so acted that Germany knew we meant what we said, and in such case therefore our rulers at Washington will have been proved responsible for the blood of the thousands of peace full men, women and children who have been killed.
 If she does not yield, we are then faced with a crisis for which, during twenty one months, we have failed to prepare in even the smallest degree.
 'The failure of our rulers at Wash ington to prepare during these twen- ty-one months, when even child ought to have seen what was i'm pending, has represented a folly so extreme that in it's effect it was a crime against the nation."

Miss Virginia Powell Promises Unique Entertainment at Center Church
 Lecture Room.

A concert unique and unusual in interest is promised by the Ladies' Aid society of the Stanley Memorial church tomorrow evening. The event will be held in the lecture room Of the Center Congregations! church at SIS o'clock and the program will te under the direction of Miss Virginia Powell, an artist of considerable note. Miss Powell renders musical mono logues or pianologues, as she some times terms them, and will be assist ed by Mrs. Florence Tyler, soprano, Raymond Vetter, violinist and Charles Googins as accompanist.
 Miss Powell apart from her piano logues, gives dramatic sketches to vary the program. Her rendition of O. Henry stories is a delight in itself and being entirely out of the run of ordinary elocutionists and readers cap- tivates her audiences. Speaking of her work at a recent entertainment, the Brooklyn Eagle said: Miss Powell made a decided hit with her stories told with piano accompaniment

President Bayis indicated that if
there was, in his opinion, any danger
of the city reverting back to another
administration by DR.. Zimmerman, he
would, if necessary, enter the mayoral-

said:

Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for it is pure
and entire' greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces
You can get that at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an

Whether or not the American troops
would go across the border at this
point was problematical. Colonel Sib-
ley. on leaving Marathon for the front,
said It would depend on the reports
of his scouts.
Discovery that the raiders were for
