One of the fine manifestations of the spirit with which the country backs up the army is the generosity with which private Hospitality is ex- tended to the soldiers and sailors whs-.-~ they may be. Our reception to the Camp Devens boys is merely a local manifestation of something which is national. A Waterbury boy who is trying for the aviation corss at Fort Omaha, Neb, writes The Re publican that there are 2,S00 men at the fort and that between seven and eight hundred of them are invited to dinner every Sunday by families in Omaha. At Camp Mills, Long Island, invitations to dinner for Thanksgiving
 Day were received for 24,000 men from hotels, clubs and other organizations and private families in New York city. The invitations exceeded the number of men quartered at the camp. Practically half of the invitations provided for dinner and for transpor- tation as welL-Waterbury Republi- can.

 That statement that waterways ore to be opened for the transportation of coal, sounds good, but as coal will not float without bottoms, many idle waterways will be the result.

COUNTY COURT CANNOT EXTEND

ring Completion of the Assessment
Rolls is Held to be Without Legal
Authority-tiere From May is.

Tax Assessor Webb Williams will
have to rush his assessments to con
cluson by the first Monday in June,
having been told by County Attorney
Whittholne that in his judgment the
county did not have the legal right to
extend the time for the completion of
the work until the first Monday of
July.
At the recent session Of the County
Court a motion was adopted appoint
ing the first Monday in July instead
of the first Monday in June as the
time for the meeting of the county
board of equalization so that the as
SCISSOR would have month longer to
complete his work. 1t was provided,
however, that before any action
should be taken an opinion should be
obtained from the county attorney as
to whether or not this could legally
be done.
Mr.. Williams accordingly called
upon the countys legal adviser, who
informed him that it was his opinion
that the County Court lacked the pow
.er to change the dates as attempted.
Being governed by the opinion Of the
county attorney, Mr.. Williams an
nounced that he would rush the work
and have his books ready for the board
of equalization when they meet on the
first Monday Of June.
Mr.. Williams will come to Columbia
on May Is, and will remain here con-
stantIy fixing values until the end of
the month. The board of equalization
will probably be in session all during
the month of June and about July l
the books will be turned over to the
county court clerk to make out the
tax books.

was using three. four and Ave columns.

space than any other advertiser used at

had little time for reading anything in
the English newspapers except such
parts of them as dealt with matters in
which he was professionally concerned.
He had not noticed the Britannica ad-
vertisements. because. like many an
other busy man. he read his newspaper
only for certain things. and he knew
where 10 find them.
Now Mr.. Balfours personal indiffer-
ence to newspaper advertising is that
of thousands of other busy people here
in America. They do not see the
britannica advertising because they
don't read their newspaper all through
The point OF this observation has to
do with the condition of affairs in the

ton which created the new Encyclo-

was ready for publication both in this
country snd in England. l issued the

which the Britannica had always APP

hold them and use them just as they
would any other book-that is. without
the slightest effort. I recognized that
the use of India paper was a tremend-
Gus innovation. 1t was an experiment

al the idea; others said it was certainly
worth trying out. but none said it would
