AN EXAMPLE FOR NORWICH.

In the city of Portland, Ore, next month there is to be a. celebration when the Columbia River highway is dedicated. to which the governors of all the states and many other distin- guished guests have been invited. This affair has been arranged so that it will occur at the same time with the annual rose festival, which has been a feature in the Oregon metropolis for a period Of ten years.
 Much attention is given to such Identification schemes, as is encour- aged by this biz rose show, through out the entire Pacific coast. The peo- pie Of that section know the value of such attractions and they have made the most of developing them. The ex- tent to which PortIand has encour- aged this is indicated by the declara- ton that more than 25,000,00 roses bloom in that city each year, to say nothing of the billions of buds. Hun dreds of miles of rose hedges beautify parking strips and there is one gar den where more than a million roses are in bloom at one time. What prep arations are made for this annual show, which cannot help but inspire a generous cooperation upon the part of individuals. is indicated by the fact that five million roses are required to decorate the floats in the floral pa geants and the festival center cov- CTS 80,OOo square feet where countless numbers of roses and other flowers are displayed.
 There is no good reason why such attractive features should be confined to the western states. New England can grow roses as well as they car and the example is one which ought to be followed. Norwich for instance ought to be interested in adopt ing such a scheme as an additiona reason for being known as the Rose of New England

rines can perform great service as commerce raiders and do it legitimate ly as long as they comply with the laws concerning such operations and respect the rights of neutrals and hu- msnity, and such is recognized by all nations. It is not against such con- duct that protests have been or are being made, but against the disregard for these restrictions and the use of the submarines for the piratica1 oper- ations which have resulted in the un- justified taking of lives of non-com- batants.
 No neutral could hope to prevent Germany from using its submarines legftimate1y and none would think of such thing, any more than it would be attempted with other nations at war, but Germany has gone far beyond the bounds of reason and grossly ex- ceeded it's rights by its destruction of vessels without giving them warning, without taking care to see that they had the right to do what they did and without attempting to prevent the killing or drowning of men, women and children. Thus there could have
 been no cause for complaint in the past had it been governed by the re- strictions which are applied to all, and there can be none now when it ob- serves the rules of war.
