STORIES OF.THE WAR
New Modes of Warfare,
est ehEVTnpf

Every day sees new methods of war fare develop. The French are especial ly active in devising refinements in man killing. Captain Phillips Miliet describes the latest tactics of the French army as follows:
 T do not think that the most re- markable feature of the present ad- vance on the Somme has been sutfi- ciently noticed. I refer to the econ onny in men.
 "AIl of us who spent the first twen- ty months at the front know that, though we had many more heavy guns and shells, the connection be- tween infantry and artillery proved very imperfect and was responsible for many losses.
 TWO things must be considered ton; secondly, the attackitsef.
 "The object of the preparation is to get rid of all the different obstacles which may delay the advance of the infantry. Now, these obstacles fall under three headings: There is first works (trenches and strongholds) finally the curtain fire of the enemy's artillery.
 "The destruction of barbed wire is almost exclusively the task of the 75's; our gunners know exactly how many shells are required per yard of wire entanglemenf.
 "The task is somewhat more com plicated as regards the destruction oi the defensive works. Experience has proved that the best way to deal with the front line trenches, especial 1y when they are not easy to observe is to use exclusively against them ar enormous number of trench mortars ol all sizes.
 "Howitzers are only used at pres.

woman is expected usually to do in fin- ancial management what man can not What men allow their wives to keep looking we'll dressed, and the fam fly looking well-fed, is evidence of the skill they expect in domestic affairs. Nothing like it is expected of a man in the bank or anywhere else that we can call to mind. Can't you think of the wife of absolute, though pros porous man, hiding his faults and her own shortness of allowance because of his bibulous extravaganza. It only needs just one example of this kind to prove the masterfulness of the woman who has appearances to keep up and expenses to keep down. This kind of ability does not receive the recognition it deserves. If some women are lost it will be because they had to say so much that wasn't so to preserve the family's responsibility.

Reply to Cloud Digger.

Mir Editor: I would like to say a few words in reply to the letter in your paper several days ago signed A Cloud Digger. judge by the tenor of his or her letter that the writer has never known the love of a parent else he q take it for granted that the writer is a manl would not have it in his heart to censure MT. Wilson for keeping us out of war. MT. Wilson who makes no pretentions to be an angel is gentleman--a very learned man-and a great man. No one who has 8 grain of sense can deny 1t.
 I also wish to state. that our Jeffer- son Davis was never a rebel any more than our Lee and Jackson, but they all who fought on their side simply se- ceded from the union which they had a perfect right to do. If the Cloud Digger will inform himself he will find that 1t was not so much that the Eoutherners wanted to retain the ne- grees as it was a question of state rights that were involved. While the north was agitating the negro question the New England mill owners were overworking the poor children. One rich man who took so much pity on the poor down-trodden race" sent one million dollars down south to educate them while the poor children in his mills were breaking themselves down with hard work so that they could keep from starving to death. MT. Day. is, Buchanan nor Wilson were ever known sto grind the poor.

Protest Against Enthusiastic Recep-

Mr Editor: As Connecticut wo- man whose father fought for the Union and whose early ancestors fought for the liberty of their coun- try, I protest against the honor paid to Q captain of the type of German craft that sank the 'Iusitania"
 In one colum of my New York pa- per I saw the other day, Deutschland received with enthusiasm in New London" while almost in the next the headline was, German submarine sinks ship without warning-Five Americans lost"

l ing such reliance in this Chinese lead- CT as to give him a place in the Sun cabinet China needs to bring its best men to the front. It is yet a young republic and it's troubles are many and varied. and during such a period nothing will contribute so much to the steady progress of the nation as the calling to its service of men in whom conhdence, both at home and abroad. can be placed.
 Tn the responsible position of for eign minister, which will by no means be sinecure, Dr. Wu will have ex- ceptional opportunities to make use of the experience which he has had in governmental affairs. He has a chance. to do much for China that it needs and he will undoubtedly use his opportunities to the best advantage. His selection Is an excellent one.

SHEEP PROBLEM GAN sE SOLVED


 Every now and then attention is called to the need of raising more wool in this country. and of the ex- ceilent opportunities which are offered for the reviving of such an industry, but the fact that the need continues to be emphasized indicates that the response Is not what 1t should be and that the proper effort to reach a so- lution of the problem has not been made.
 That the people of this country have been great developers of industries cannot be questioned. but in the case of cattle and sheep raising there aT- pears to be a serious slump instead of advancement. There was a time when there was brisk business in sheep raising and when cattle raising was extensively engaged in right here in New England. Conditions have changed but even so the situation in the country as far as cattle and sheep are concerned is decidedly nsatisfac- tory. The demand is greater than the supply and the opportunity exists for changing this situation.
 Just the same as it was possible to overcome the obstacles which were confronted in the development of other industries on a sound and prof itable basis. it is possible to do it in connection with sheep husbandry. What appears to be necessary is a realization of this and the tacixling of the problem with determination to solve it. There is no reason why this country should not produce such raw materials as are needed in this line but every time sheep raising is spoken of the dog problem is raised. If that is the real cause of the slump isn't it time that the dog was put where he belongs?

HELeIUM's JUSTIFIED PROTESTS.

|
 Belgium has been doing a lot of protesting since the war opened which has not amounted to very much. It remonstrated fruitlessly against the violation of its neutrality and 1t has strenuously opposed the destruction of its churches and historic buildings. Tt has fought the unjust taxation and ehe treatment accorded to the people of that country by the invaders. It has endeavored to escape unjust taxa ton and it resisted to the limit the overriding of its rights but 1t received little satisfaction.
 It is not surprising, however, that 1t has now put forth a new protest be- cause of the proof which 1t claims to have that 1900 of the Belgian men and a number of French civilians have been transported by the Germans by Force to points where the Teutons de- sired to put them to work on military defenses. The previous protests which were made were unquestionably justi- fled and the same holds true in this last case. That 1t will have no more effect than those which have preceded it cannot be expected but it indicates that they are determined not to sub init to such actions without expressing its righteous indignation and calling the attention of the neutral world to the manner in which The Hague con- vention has been violated.
 Possessing proof as they claim oi such actions. the position which Ger many takes in this respect reflects nc credit upon It's claim to justice and the respect for the rights of others.

WU TING FANG.

Attention is again attracted to China by the announcement, which has just been made, to the effect that Wu Ting Tang has been called to the important post of foreign minister in that country and that he has accepted the appoint ment. He is without doubt one of the leading men of influence in that republic. He has twice represented his government as ambassador to the Limited States and 1t is known that he 1s fast friend of America. He is h man of liberal tendencies who, though he was not in close touch with khe Administration of Yuan Shi Kai because of his ideas. will add much needed strength to the Chinese cabi- het. ana that certainly is what ia needed at this time in particular.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S REELEc.
 TON.

Ever since the western states be- gan to roll up their election figures and made it evident that what ap- peared in the first place to be a vic- tory for the republican nominee was likely to be turned into a victory for the president there has been a con- sistent gain of the doubtful states by the democrats. This in spite of the surprise that 1t caused and the hope to the contrary has put beyond doubt the reelection of President Wilson both by a majority in the electoral college and by the popular vote.
 That there are a number of reasons for this is apparent. There are many who have been moved by the claim that he has kept us out of war. There are others who endorse his policies and the legislation which has been enacted during the present administra- ton and who have given him the credit of it regardless of the part which both parties have played therein. There are those who have looked upon the pres- ent prosperity as a stable thing in- stead of something which has been ; thrust upon us and there Is evidence from the results which have been dis closed In the west that the republi- can party in that section has not re- covered from the split of 1912.
 All of these have unquestionably seryed to bring about the democratic victory, but regardless of all that the people have rendered their verdict. It is verdict which the democrats have a right to claim is a vindication of their policies. and as the figures show in the various states 1t has been fully demonstrated that President Wilson is much stronger than his party.

tWritten Specially for The Bulletin.)
 Reference was made last week to the abundance of the food and the substantial dishes which characterized the tables of the early residents of Norwich.
 While the fad for puddings--p1ain or rich-has not been continued by later inhabitants as has tho custom of eating baked beans especially on Saturday night, 1t is safe to say that there are housewives here in our frivolous age who could match in ap- pounded by the staid ladies of an earlier time.
 It is recorded that, during the years of the long ago, an extra good house. wife would put her pudding in it's bag at night, keeping its boiling until dinner time the following day. top: and as the pile lowered to the center, the color deepened to a de- liciouS red. .-,..g
 The historian of Norwich speeulates whether this custom of making and boiling buildings by the Norwich housewives might not be traced back to those parts of England from which the pioneer planters of the town came Certainly, the stories we read of the steaming and tempting dessert being taken from its bag with due ceremony and expectation, recall that wonder ful Christmas pudding at Bob Crat- chit's, or that other marvel described by pr. Marigold, "a pudding to put man in good humor with everything, except the two bottom buttons of his waistcoat."
 On the whole, it seems safe to be- Iieve that the desserts of early Nor wich were a faithful copy of those to which the founders of the town had been accustomed In their native Eng land.
 During the period when the pudding f1ourished here, there was no reason to worry because the price of potatoes was mounting to a couple of dollars a bushel In fact. potatoes were ther unknown in this country and were not introduced until TYPO, although tur- nips were a common vegetable.

Sunday Morning Talk
DON'T BE A "MAWsH."

The tumuit and the shouting dies. The candidates and the spellbinders depart. The smoking campaign pHess- es are cooling off and the, orators, are resting their thoats. The sovereign 'peepul' have spoken and while some are glad and some are sad at the out come of the battle of ballots, every body believes that the Republic will survive.
 The only man who has right to be ashamed of himself is the man who did not vote at all; that is, of course, provided he could have voted. He is the man the National League of Voters has been gunning for, through out the whole campaign, in an at tempt to stir him to do his duty The league has devised name for him that may survive this election and live in the next one, and in the days be- tween.

A "Mawsh" is man whose stock answer to every summons to the polls is, might as well stay home" He is so steer ed In indifference that he will not even make a choice of sides. Sometimes. of course he is sim ply lacking in courage, telling you that the other side has such an over whelming advantage that any oppo- sition is useless He comedies the shot. There are some of that timor- ous order in every community.
 The ''Mawsh" is to be found not alone among voters but sometimes. among the people voted for. There are legislators to whom the League devised in the first place for indolent private citizens. There are represen- tatives in State and congressman in national halls of legislation who have sought the peoples support and re- ceived it, but only to give slack ser the post of duty when they feel like being, but absent on ro1lcalls that are inconvenient. When the session promises to be tedious, they reason that they might as well stay at home"
 Teachers, preachers, and all work CTS whose efforts depend on the en- listment of other people are familiar with the "Mawsh". They find him not actively opposed but only indifferent He does not work against the good cause, but he refuses to work for 1t When the committee needs him he is at home toasting his toes by the fire When the reform Is short handed he Is among those not present.
 Few moods are harder to deal with than this ''mawsh" apathy. Outright opposition can be met with resistance If one needs enlfghtment it can be given. Arguments can be brought te bear on those who require to be con. vinced But what can be done with the man or woman who simply doesn't care?" Indifference Is ar arrnor that simply dulls all our weap. ons. One never feels quite so spen1 as when he has tried to point out 2 present duty and privilege to con. firmed 'tMawsh."

x. It does not pay to become chronic doubter. Doubt produces perplexity and perplexity ends in confusion. In proportion as we doubt we cease to believe. and if we lose our belief in God and in man we have lost our be- lief in ourselves. Yet, on the other hand 1t is perilous to be too creduIous, for this is the way te become an easy mark. The doubt which serves as an incentive to a search for the truth is respeetab1e;. and although it has been said that truth fingers in the very shadow of doubt, truth is not easy to discover. 'aThe man who trusts men," 1t has been said, will make fewer mis- takes than the man who distrusts thenn." Trust we must, but as Lavater says: Trust him little. who praises all him less who censures all, and him least who is indifferent about all.' With these suggestions to guide us we ought to be able to discover the truth which will pear it's own weight without any assistance from the discoverer.

There was a church at Laodicea that was neither hot nor cold, but only 1ukewarm. It was a little coterie of self-satfsf1ed men and women doing nothing to extend the kingdom of righteousness. It was merely a sort of Sunday club from which all moral enthusiasm had passed. And because of this lack, the church passed under the condemnation of the Divine spirit "So then, because thou art iulxewaF1n, and neither cold nor hot, will epew thee out of my mouth" There is lit- tie use for the church or for the in- dividual in this modern age who has fallen into this Laodicean mood. &
 Emerson is right when he reminds us that Every great and command ing movement in the history of hu- manity has been the triumph of en- thusiasn." They succeed who are in dead earnest? The history Of the church proves it iron, the days of the apostles to those of Billy Sunday. If one feels the .mawsh' attitude getting possession of him let him fight 1t as he would the plague.
