INDIAN GIRL SACRIFICED
HERSELF TO SAVE FATHER

Several Indian reform associations
have been attacking the evil custom of
marriage dowries, and their efforts quite
recently received notable reinforcement
from young girl in Calcutta whose
name will not soon be forgotten.
Snehatala had reached the advanced
age of IA and was still unmarried. Her
father had made every effort to collect
enough money to buy husband for her,
but in vain, for the price demanded for
a bridegroom was 500 rupees IN cash
and 1920 in jewelry. There was nothing
left him but to mortgage the home
Having dressed herself in her best, Sne-
hatala climbed to the roof of the house,
soaked her clothes in kerosene and, set
ting fire to them, stood there burning
in the sight of all the neighborhood. An
attempt was made to save her, but it
was too late.
In the pathetic note that She lelr
she said among other things: DAY be-

GIRLS DEMAND

Nearly all girls are treated alike by
young men whom they meet for the

not take long for a serious-minded
girl to show them that she will not
stand for such nonsense. She art
fully tries to lead him into a CONVEX

science or art, and if the young man
understands they interchange
thoughts and so derive more pleas

that your paper reaches the union
men I'want to ask them if they con-
slider the brotherhoods of railroad
employees a union organization?
am one of the many railroad en-
pIOyes who have a bone to pick with
the brOtherhoods. Seven years ago
when the freight handlers and the
railroad clerks went out on strike,
did they help us when they pulled
from the freight houses the cars
which had been loaded and billed by
the scabs, and when they put the
empty cars in the freight houses did
they help our cause? And what are
they doing today (When they are tell
ing the public, how much they are
abUsed) to help the freight handlers
that are out at the G. B. & @. and
the several other railroads? Are they
refusing to pull the cars loaded by
scabs from the freight houses?
When you ask them why they do
these things they tell you: why,
we don't need any help from you.
Why should we help your" Well,
now is the time to show these aris-
tocrats among the railroad employees
that they do need the help of organ

WAR, RAVING, ETC.-Mr. SchiI-
ling objects to efforts to find out the
cause of drink and poverty. Very
well, let's practice non-resistance and
resign ourselves to the powers that
be. If they're satisfied, no doubt we
should be.
He says: why rave about social
ism when we have other PHILOSOPHERS
more up to date?" We're not look
ing for a philosophy. We're looking
for the full equivalent of our pro-
duct. If you can find a better means
of getting it than through socialism
I'd like to hear it.
My critic adds: "Why rave about
the working class in their sleep and
neglect yourself?" Why, simply be-
cause in union there is strength. In
diVidual advantage of the worker is
impossible without collective gain of
the working class.
why rave against war when it
rids the world of the unfit" Where
does my friend get that noise? I'll
tell you what war does. 1t takes the
flower of the manhood Of nation,
the strong and healthy, to be killed
and mangled for the benefit of an
exploiting class, and leaves, the unfit
at home to- perpetuate, the race. Is
that Kidding the world of the unfit?

MANY ATTEND MOHEGAN FESTIVAL
Gathering in Wiga the Old Church Wednesday Brought Back Indian Days-Mrs. Lydia Fielding Only One Left of Women Who Started Custom 56 Years Ago.

As president of the Sewing society of the Mohegan church, Mrs. Edwin c. Fowler was one of the busiest of the many busy workers and her efforts went far toward making the festival happy and successful affair. Then she had the cooperation of Miss Gladys Quidgeon, the society's vice president and many other of the church people, not forgetting Miss Iil- Han Daniels, who has been the be- loved pastor of the church for seven years and has preached the gospel clearly and conscientiously. The gen. eral committee of arrangements com prised Mrs. John Quidgeon, Mrs. Ella Avery. Mrs. AdeIine Dolbeare Mrs. Delana SheesUcks and Mrs. Cynthia Fowler, and they spared no efforts in making everything agreed ble to visi- tors. In the kitchen Mrs. Fowler, held forth, capabIy assisted by Bur- Till Fielding, Frank Burrows. George R. Saunders, and Louis Brainerd, while the newcomer was pleasantly greeted at the gate by LemueI Field ing's genaI countenance and cordial handcIasp.
 At the candy table Mrs. Lydia Fielding presided just where she did 56 years ago and of course this was one of the most frequented spots in the wigwam. She was assisted by Miss Ethel Francis.
 At the cake table were Mrs. Ger trude Harris and Mrs. Delana Skee- sucks and the fancy work was in charge of Mrs. Ademine Dolbeare and Mrs. Ella Avery. Leroy Fielding and Mrs. Elizabeth Reed dispensed the ice cream and at the tables Mrs. liar riet Quidgeon, Mrs. Annie Fielding, Mrs. Isabelle LeNT6ine and Mrs. Hat tie Meech gave efficient service. Mrs. Albert Fielding was the fortune tell CT and Miss Gertrude Harris tended the grabbag.
 Among the interesting things that caught the eye Wednesday were bowls carved from naples with only 9 knife by Roscoe SI6eesucks and wooden spoons fashioned by Charles Mathews and John Quidgeons There was grass basketry from Indians in Maine and belt quilts of many colOrs one of them tied by Mrs. Ann Mathews wren she was over ninety.

MARKETING THE cockERELs.
County Agent Sends Out Timely BuI-
 Ietin to Poultry Club Members.

Marketing the CockereIs is the title of the bulletin sent to the County Poultry Club members by County Agent P. c. Warner. The beulletin which was prepared by R. J. Brun dage club leader, follows:
 The cOckereis that were not sold as br0ilers can now be marketed as soft roasters, that is. those of the heavier breeds like the Rocks, the Reds, and the WyandOttes. The Leghorn is, of course, little too small to make 8 good roaster. Of course the easiest way to dispose of these birds is to have man come and take them away alive, but you can undoubtedly get somewhat higher returns and also c lot of valuable experience by first fat tenlnG the cockerels and then selling them as dressed poultry.
 The cOckeCel5 may be fed for week or more in a small colony house and they can be further improved by crate fattening, which means shut ting them up in 8, small coop where they can take little or no exercise and then. giving them all they can eat A strawberry crate would perhaps be large enough for three or four birds depending upon their size. The top ought to be slated so that they will have plenty of air. A little sand in the bottom will make the birds com- Portable. All food and water is given in troughs or pans from the outside the birds eating through the open ings in the sides of the crates.
 4 good ration can be made of two parts corn meal. one part each of bran. middlings, ground oats, and beef scrap. The grain ration should con- sist Cf,> cracked corn only The birds should be fed at least three times a day and four times would perhaps be better but you must not let the food remain before them. Give them all they will clean up in ten to fifteen minutes and then take it away, other wise the birds will get sick of their feed and are likely to lose rather than should be fed wet and you can inn prove it by mixing it with milk rath- CT than water. The crate fattening must not continue for more than twelve or fourteen days as the birds will not stand such heavy feeding without exercise for long time.
 When ready to dress you should stick the birds in the mouth to bleed them and then dry pick as scalded poultry is not quite so pleasing and presentable nor does it keep as well as dry picked poultry. You will, of course, weigh the feed and weigh the cockerels before you put them in the fattening crates and again when you are ready to kill in order to find out how much gain they have made and how much it has cost. Do not allow the birds to have anything to eat the day they are to be killed because a dressed fowl with a full crop is very unsightly, and less saleable

Yesterday and today are the days the Wigwam saigns in Mohegan, when in a bower built of birches at the lit- tie old church on top of the hill. the descendants of the famous Uncas and his equally noted band are hold ing festival, symbol of harvest time and autumn cheer. Fifty-six years ago a little group of women of the AIohegans began these festivals and now of their number one only is left, Mrs. Lydia Fielding, who at S4, alert and active and keen spirited, was one of the brightest figures in all the wig Wam on Wednesday. The others have passed on, not to the happy hunting grounds, but to an even hap church on the hill. 85 years old this November. dominated the lives of these simple friendly Indian folk and made them deserving of the best re- wards that kindly and helpful lives merit.
 And the iDroads that time has made on these last of the A4ohegans has for the past half dozen years caused the abandonment of the far famed Mo began festivals, for workers are few and the task of making ready is great But this year the demands for the re- newal of the festival celebration grew insistent, and so yesterday aft CT weekc of planning and days and nights of preparatory activities. the Wfgwam opened once more and with all it's old time charm. It seemed to be just one big sociabIe family party and all the visitors from this city and New London and the country round, revelled in Indian succotash and yo- keag. and admired Indian basketry and had the future of their lives un- folded by an Indian fortune teller. One of the old attendants said he thought it was the biggest first day the Mohegan festival ever had. The people began to come during the morning hours and more arrived after the glow Of the lanterns lit up fan tastically the Ieafy birch boughs. black and white, that made the roof and walls of the wigwam. In the hours between there was 9 constant stream, by trolley. automobile and on foot. It was a beautiful day for the festival.

DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
 WILL MEET FRIDAY Norwich Members Will Extend InVi- tation to Hold Midwinter Banquet Here.

The August meeting of the Eastern Connecticut Development committee will be held at Crescent Beach Friday. The opening gun for the year will be fired at this meeting, when proposed matters for discussion and action will be presented.
 The meeting will be held at the White Beach hotel, where a shore dinner will be served at noon, fol- lowed by the business meeting. The principal matter under consideration now is that of changing rs.- name of the committee and the consensus of opinion apparently is that the present name is satisfactory and will be con tinued.
 The subject of a midwinter banquet will be discussed and Norwich mem OerS of the committee will extend the invitation to hold the coming banquet here and the Norwich Chamber of Commerce will make every effort to have it up to the high standard of past years. The date for the ban quet will probably be set on Friday and this will give ample time 70 se- cure good speakers and lines will be dropped immediately when the date for the occasion has been determined.
 In the announcement of the coming meeting the president of the commit tee has asked that new topic be brought in for consideration. Those who attend the meeting will have the grand opportunity to meet the Great Chief on his own hunting ground and hear him explain the places of interest along the shore of New Lon don county.
