the terms of peace are signed by the present belligerent ipowers. The de- pression will come to these shores be- cause Europe will need all the money at it's command to hire labor and buy building materials with which to re- construct itself. This money is to be borrowed from America and when so much money goes out of the country business here will suffer because business here will not be able to bor- row money unless at eXorbitant rates of interest. That is the propo- sition. We'll and good. But when American money, where is Europe go- ing to spend it? Does Europe possess all the material for it's own up-build- ing. It is said not. And then if that ca; and American money will come right back where it started from,- so business will necessarily profit. If the first part of the prophecy is true,
 
 for it's own reconstruction, it must keep this material at home and will not dump it in an American market And, that being the case, there will not be twelve million men, women and children thrown out of work here. So no matter which way the prophets of despair set their minds to wOrkiner the prophets of delight can garner from sorrow. It is a shaky business at best, this prophesying what is going to happen after the war. The logic is poor, because the premises are bad.

Wherever Yale men gather today their thoughts will necessarily revert to their alma mater and to COnnecti- cut, the state that provides the home of this great University. Two hun dred years ago today little college was moved from Saybrook to New Haven. The pageant staged in the great Yale Bowl this afternoon will trace the historical events that have transptred since that memorable day. It will mark the growth of New Haven as well as the progress of Yale. It will trace the career of Connecticut in the great Armament of states in this glorious union. All the cities in the state join New Haven today in this great celebration. Sons of Yale throughout New England will go back to the old campus this afternoon and celebrate one of the greatest events in the history of the institution. Pageant day is indeed a festive occasion.

rartv and organized labor are travel ing hand in hand in the present cam paign, and I wish to reiterate them through the columns of the Herald.
 My authority for the same is in- vested in me through resolution No 40, which was adopted at the recent convention of the State Federation of Labor, which is as follows: Presented by Delegate Andrews of Danbury, Whereas, the present Connecticut representatives in Congress, have by their negative votes on the so-calIed railroad eight hour bill, taken this stand directly opposed to the welfare of the workingmen of this country. Be 1t resolved, that all affiliated unions be notified that we do not approve of their reelection because we believe that they are enemies of organized labor Favorably adopted
 Il further wish to state that all def- egates attending the convention of the State Federation of Labor in Hartford during the week of September ', were instructed by their executive boardto use all honorable means to defeat the enemies of labor, and elect the friends.
 If these men, who call themselves Ia Dor men q mean organized labor mem, attended the mass meeting held in our city last Sunday in Turner hall, they would know about what authority l have the right to make the statements that I made at the rally Thursday evening, October 19. also wish to announce that from Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, down to the con~ Vention of the Connecticut democratic party held at New Haven during the week of September 14 that party en- dorsed and imbedded in its platform all matters pertaining to organized labor, from a legislative standpoint. The American Federation of Labor has endorsed President Wilson, and 1t is a well known fact that the state convention did not have the opportun- lty of so doing, owing to the fact that they met week later than the cone vention of the Federation of Labor. Tn conclusion, I wish to remind those men who are responsible for the item in the COurant, to remember fnstruc- tions of the Federation of Labor, to use all honorable means to defeat their enemies and elect their friends.

When night comes on, I cease to
 dread,
 Grim dangers, but I look ahead To where that pair of youngsters wait TO see me coming through the gate And there I know that we shall play At least one hour of life away, That sixty minutes I shall be free From care and worry wholly free. I may not find success today And I may falter by the way. The hours may dreary be and long And all my fondest hopes go wrong. I may be sick at heart and sore Rut when I reach that little door I know one hour will be complete With merriment and laughter sweet.
