BOOKS FOR THE SOLDIERS.

Throughout the various states ot the nation there is a movement un- derway at the present time for the faising of a fund which will mean ihe placing of a million books at the command of the young men of this country who are going to fight for the rights and principles for which it stands, and for the making of the world safe for democracy
 There is great deal of hard worr which is demanded of the soldiers in the camps, in the trenches and at intermediate poinSs, but. there will also be many hours of leisure which the young men will be anxious to turn to personal profit through reading Many are going to be deprived of this much cherished privilege Others who have not been so keen for it will de- sire to put in some of their spare time in this manner, and it is but proper that they should be given the oppor- tunity. The help which the people they represent. the aid which those back at home who are enjoying all the privileges which they left and the assistance which those who have no relatives in the army will want to give can be relied upon to respond to the appeal which has been put forth m this direction.
 The idea has the approval of the recretary of war. the governor of the

VOTERS MUST DO THEIR PART.

Although there may be other mat ters which are holding the attention Of the people just at this time. the importance of town matters and there fore the town election. which comes next Monday, ought not to be overlook ed 1nasmuch as each and every tax payer and voter is stockhoIder in this large corporation, it behooves them to take a stockholders interest and to do all that lies within their power to secure for the town the best possible administration of its affairs.
 Such is n duty which rests upon every vciter. It is not something which should be passed along to the other fellow. There should be a keen and healthy Interest taken by every eIector in holding the town govern ment up to a high standard The best is what Is wanted and that is what can be had If those who have the power to obtain it not only recog- nize but assume their individual re- spansibility
 There has been a. most commend able handling of town affairs during the-past two years. There has been conscientious and faithful service rem dered by the officials who were select ed for the work. They have been true to their trust and it now rests for the people of Norwich to further ad- vance the towns interests by retain ing them in cff1ce. and there can be E'<le question but what they will be reelected if the republican and in- dependent voters will but impress up- on them selves the necessity of doing their part Norwich needs and should want more of the same efficient town government that it has beens receiv- ing.

SECOND THEMoTioN.

From one end of the country to the ether there will be a rousing second ing of the statement made by Pres ident Roosevelt at q luncheon given for him and Major General Wood at Kansas City. when he said 'Tf were this minute member of the United States senate. I would be ashamed to sit in that body until I found some method of depriving Senator La Fol lette of his seat in that chamber, which he knows is disgraced by his presence there."
 Colonel Roosevelt might we'll have included other members of congress in his denunciation, for there are oth- CTS who have been and are doing much more than what should be ex- pected from loyal representatives of the people. but he struck the nail on the head when he declared Senator iAaFollette Is at this moment Loyalty and officially serving one country Germany"
 But it is an attitude which is by no means new. It is not confined to the present moment for it has pre- vailed for many months. He stands forth as the leader of obstructioai<ts, who, by the way in which he has de- Iayed and opposed legislation which is for the national welfare, cannot te regarded as doing anything else but playing into the hands of the enemy. Not only is he a disgrace to the body in which he sits but he disgraces his state and the nation of which at one time he aspired to be the leader. There can be little question but what the emperor of Germany is highly pleased with the service which he is rendering him. =

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society.

Dvinsk, one of Russia's strongest fortified cities, which is now practical lv on the Russo-German firing line, is described in today's war geography bulletin, issued by the National Geo. graphic society, which says:
 With a popu' 'ation of no, 900, in cluding 30,000 Jews. Dvinsk is a city of prime imports 1,e to Russia, for it virtually controls the whole valley. of the River Dvina, upon whose right bank it is situated, no miles 135 miles by the river) south east of Riga,
 Not only Is Dvinsk important as a strategic river point, but as a thriv- ing railway center. It is the junction merce running frcnl Riga to Srnolensk and from Petrograd, to Wilma. There is also an important railway to Libau. Dvinsk is 332 miles by rail southwest of Petrograd.
 "Dvinsk Is an important agricui- turaI center. enjoying extensive trade in flax, hemp. and grain. It is a big timber market, aud it's flourish ing industries before the war includ- ed flour mills. breweries. match and tobacco factories, tanneries, brick and tile works.
 "In most encyclopedias and gazet- teers the city is listed under it's old name of Dunaburg, but in 1893 the Russian authorities officially declared it to be Dvinsk.
 The history of the town dates back to the last quarter of the 18th century when the Livonian Knights of the Sword erected Q castle on the Dvina 12 miles below the site of The pres ent city. Nearly two centuries later the grand master of this order found it expedient to m->tgage the strong hold to Sigismund Augustus. king Of Poland. Ivan the Terrib'2 wrested 1t from the Polish crown in 1576. but it was restored to King Stephen Bathory six years later and he removed the fort from the Old Castle. as it is still called to the site where the permanent citN developed. In the succeeding century it was a bone Of contention be- as was the seaport of Riga during the same period In 1772. however. upon the first partition of Poland it became a part of Russia's spoils.
 During Napoleon's Russian cam paign in 1912 Marshal Oudinot tried in vain to capture the bridge head at Dvinsk, but the honor of taking the city was reserved for Macdonald a few weeks later.
 "Dvinsk has figured conspiciously in the recent history of the development of trade, unions and the counter labor represented in the employ crs' association in Russia. In January 1905 the masters (employers), aided by the support of the skilled workmen, decided to oppose the demands of the less skilled and unskilled workmen. These Dvinsk employers associations dressmakers. shoemakers. dealers in painters, carpenters print l FITS, photographers, barbers. cab pro- prietors. carting contractors, tanners, | cigare.e- makers, paper box nnanufac- turers, and paint makers Lockouts | cia1iens resulted in numerous disturb l 7nces."

CANNING
Sweet Corn.

Sweet Corn.
 Now that sweet corn is plentiful the bulletin today from the National Emergency Food Garden Commis- sion, cooperating with this paper to conserve the food resources. advises the housewife to make a special effort to can or dry as much as possible.
 While canned corn is a staple ar ticle and a liberal supply should be on hand, the dried product is even more palatable and it requires less skill to dry corn than to can it.
 To make the best dried or canned product, the ears should be in right condition for table use. For drying, the ears may be blanched from i've to ten minutes in boiling water or steam the same as for canning, or the corn may be cut off half way down the kernels and the "hearts'' scraped out without blanching. The corn may be dried in gentle oven heat or in the sun.
 In canning corn on the cob ac- cording to the cold pack method, be sure to have fresh corn. After re- moving the husks and silk, blanch the corn on the cob from five to 1f-

A PATRIOTIC DUTY.

Now that there is strike among the shipbuilders at Norfolk, meanins the tieing up of more of the ccnstruc- tion work which the country SO great iy needs. it begins to lcok as if this sort of trouble was becoming con- tagious. Never was there time when
 workmen and employers should do their utmost to avoid just such i'm dustrial stagnation as that which Is factories CT shipyards more than right now
 If there are grievances regarding working conditions, if there are dis putes concerning the wage scale, CT if there are differences regarding fore men. 1t should be thoroughly under stood that any or all of these mat ters can be adjusted without resort to a strike if there but exists the proper disposition upon the part of those involved.
 There have been some interesting cases of late where just such trou- bles have been adjusted through re- sort to arbitration. Out on the Pa cific coast at San Francisco the iron workers are to go back after slight concessions while the weigh.ier mat ters are to be adjusted while they work. A strike at a time like this when the country requires the great est production means 8 serious loss. It causesa slowing up in the output which cannot be made up and it means a loss which the workmen can- not overcome. The realization of this ought to be sufficient to give heed to a sober. second thought be- fore a break occurs. And now of all times it would appear to be a patri- otic duty.

QUITT FRS.

At many of the military camps throughout the country it is found
 that there are many wffo have not re-
 sponded to the draft call. Just what
 the reason is is difficult to tell in all
 the cases, for it is entirely possible
 that illness. accident or failure to re-
 ceive notification may enter into some of the instances. but until that has
 been determined it will be impossible for them to escape the suspicion that they are trying to avoid the call, that they are shirking their duty and that they are endeavoring tc put onto oth- CTS that which they have been called upon. to do.
 Some who failed to report with their contingent have since appeared at the camps but even then the num- her of such slacl<ers is larger than would be expected. While some may not grasp the responsibility which rests upon them. or may no. appre- ciate the power of the government under the existing situation, nasmuch as such preparations for war cannot be considered familiar in this country. it must be appreciated as soon as it becomes known in the communities where they reside that their position as persistent slackers, whether 1t has been caused by the activities of the pacifists or by some other equally unscund advice. is going to make their daily existence mighty uncomfortable even before as well as after they are sought out and brought individually into camp. Their action is in strong contrast to the attitude of those who could have claimed exemption but did not because they were unwilling to give their fellowmen a chance to lcok upon them as quitters or towards. even though such might not have been the case.
