THE PRIDE OF NEW BRITAIN,

When the work of the military cen- sus bureau in this city was brought to close last week more than twenty thousand names had been catalosued. Out of a total of 20.6O5 names sent from New Britain to the headquarters at the State capital. 19.ss1 were bona fidc residents of this city. Tho 792 names over and above resident males represent men who live here, but who have not as yet qualified ast residents. s
 In the event of war with any for eign power New Britain will stand ir the front. ranks of those cities of- fering aid and comfort to the state ard the national government. The military census insures just distri- button of labor in the event volun- teers are called for. The men who put their names to the formal slips handed out by the state government were not asked to enlist in the army, or the navy. They were hot asked tc serve in any branch of military service. They were merely requested to state what they could best do to serve the governmnt in the event of war. After a declaration of war, if 1t becomes necessary. they can be drafted. Yet there will be no cause for that. The men of America have always proven true to the trust of citizenship. The men of: New Britain will prove no exception to the na-' ttonal rule.
 There are already in the army and navy men who hail from New Brit. ain. There will be more in these two branches of defense. The state militia knows what New Britain has done in the way of order service. Yet. there is reserve army here of industrial workers who have services to render as valuable if not more so than any that might be expended on the field of action These are the men who will be depended upon in any crisis. These are the pride of New Britain. They ere all numbered among those who signed the military census blanks.

MuzzIdEs. 1fUzzIEs!
.sCensor'slhip,' or ''Wire Quarantine" !" Against Degland Destroys All the Pleasures of Puppy-hood. Owners Have Heart!

New Britain Conn.,.
 March go. 1917. My dear Herald" readers:
 Two weeks ago Thursday. the edict concerning the muzzling of dogs went into effect. A very wise precaution
 The imaginative person, however, cannot but feel whimsical bit of sympathy for the poor "muts" which he happens to meet, on his way to and from business.
 Such an unbecoming harness! Un- comfortable too. to judge from the wild gyrations and futile struggling to be free of 1t. Such rubbing of noses against the sidewalk. And claw ing at the unsightly wire. with soft impatient paws! Such reproachful brown eyed giances as are cast at us humans! If doggies think (and maybe they do as deeply as some peo- pie we all know) they must be won dering what in creation we are think ing of, to encase their sensitive noses in such devilish device-just when spring Is coming. too! What pleasure can, soft, green grass to roll in, and itch one's back in, bring to mug zled pup? I ask you that. All. all the pleasures of dog-hood have been spoiled; lying in the sun on 8 gorgeous spring morning; digging holes on the front lawn. to find a perfectly good bone, in cold storage, at the bottom! The muzzle, to the doggy mind. Is certainly a most hateful, pernicious contraption; and that such a conclu- sion is reached by logical doggy req soning I know you'll all agree.
 Now since the why of our edict must &1rf~ I1 <~ &SrA must compensate somewhat by mak- iny present discomfort more bearable. A gentle pat or sweetly intoned "nice doggie!' in passing, is recom- mended. Don't be afraid, the croas- est old be-muzzled dog in town can't bite.
 And there's another kind of com pensation which should not be over-' looked. Some masters who keep dogs as pets for the children or al watchguards for the chickens-it mat vters not--let these little dog depend- ents of theirs forage for breakfast, dinner and supper in the neighbours garbage cans. The. hungry dogs should not be blamed; rather com- mended for their ingenuity and self reliance, in providing themselves with daily bread. But those stingy careless masters are too horrible to contemplate. I wish the goblins would catch them and administer a bread and water diet for year so.
 Listen, ye masters whose dogs are obliged to dine out of neighbOrs gar bage cans! In his e-muzzled state, your dog is handicapped; he can't get his living in the usual way. Then for gracious sakes, feed him--if not regularly, at least once in while Take off the wire harness and cheer his doggy heart with a bone!
 Most sincerely yours F. D. l..

Wise sayings. Written about the year 150, B. c.
 Diversified by James .shepard.) All wisdom comes from God most
 high,
 Tie fear of God. doth give A merry heart, gladness and joy. And many days to live. The fear of God drives off all sin, And turneth wrath away. A furious man will be thrown down By his own fury's sway. Take cheerfully whatever comes; Chafe not when penniless. Like gold, the good are tried within The furness of distress. Seek not for things above thy strength, Listen to each command, For unto all. more things are shown Than they can understand. And divers men have been deceived By self opinion vain, Evil suspicion overthrows
 What judgment may remain. Deliver him that suffers wrong
 From the oppressor's hand; And when you take a judges seat, Take no faint hearted stand. Wisdom walks first by crooked ways; With fear and dread. she must Torment you by her discipline
 Till she your soul may trust. Then she returns with the straight way And makes her secrets known. Should one go wrong, she leaves that
 one
 To ruin of his own. Strive for the truth, cen unto death. That God shall fight for thee. Be not lion in thy house
 Nor mad, for help to see. Winnow thou not with ev'ry wind; Go not in ev'ry way, For sinners with a double tongue. Do so from day to day. Answer thy heishbor. if thou hast An understanding found. If not. then place upon thy mouth Thine hand and stop the sound Strive not with him that's full of | tongue
 What e'er you may desire. And take good care that you heap not The wood upon his fire. The poor are honored for their skill. The rich man for his store. If degredation comes in wealth
 In poverty much more. How little is the honey bee
 Among all such as fly, And yet, her fruit is chief of all
 The sweet things that we buy. In welfare, friends cannot be known, Nor can an enemy Wholly be hidden from our view
 When in diversity. Thine enemy may humbly crouch,
