WAR IS INEVITABLE"
DECLARES DIME KING

Atlantic City. Feb. III don't see how
1t is possible for US to avert war with
Germany. 1t looks to me as though we
shall have war within a short time, much
as l should like to believe the con-
trary."
Thus spoke Frank w. Woolworth, own
er of more than 900 stores in America.
England. Scotland, Ireland, France and
Germany, at the Hotel Traymore today.
The situation Is such as will lead to
war with the German Empire, it seems
to me, although 1 had hoped that we
might be able TO avoid hostilities. l think
the submarine policy recently adopted by
the Germans Is the result of desperate
condition which is said to exist In Ger

Mr.. Woolworth is spending several days

Spy BILL PREVENTS
PREPAREDNESS TALK
Senators Say Measure Would Muzzle
Patriotic Asitation.

The administration spy and conspiracy
opposition in the Senate yesterday after
noon. Senators Cummins, Republican, of
Iowa, and Lee, of Maryland, warned
that the measures would infringe upon In
dividual liberty in a manner wholly con-
trary to the principles Of the American
government.
Senator Lee declared that the bill ito
defire and punish espionage would muz-
zle preparedness agitation. Il am afraid. y
he said, that this law would be so dras-
tic as to prevent legitimate discussion
OF the unpreparedness OF the country.
In the attempt to- protect so-called mill
tary secrets, Congress is more apt TO
choke of agitation for proper national
defense. At this time the country needs
a citation on this topic considerably more
than it needs secrecy.
I'VE are rushing through a most dras-
tic bill to accomplish one purpose which
actually will accomplish more harm IN
another direction. There should be some
definition inserted in the measure to pro-
tect citizens from being denied the only
means of obtaining adequate military de-
Tense"
Senator Cummins charged that the per-
sons who framed the hill did rot seem
TO understand American liberty at all
or have sympathy with our institutions.
"If 1t were not for my respect for the
committee which framed the BILL ne
said, 81 would describe this SECTION as
monstrous. II the Senate can Sersuade
itself that It is necessary to. enact such
Hesitation in order to prevent informa-
ton from creeping abroad, must con-
clude that we have lost our regard Tor
the liberties of our citizens. 1t bears
the marks or having been drafted by the
executive department under fear OF ap-
proa ching war"

Parent. Teachers Association Hold In.
teresting Meeting

Al the regular monthly meeting OF
the Parent Teacher association 9 very
interesting program was gwen.
The opening number Was 3 vocal
solo by Miss Cannon which was much
enjoyed. Then Miss Abbie Keith, ,the
English teacher ut the High school.
spoke on the subject, "Some Aims and
Methods in tresching English with
Suggestions for Cooperation.
Miss keith's talk was especially
practical for this, organization because
she pro, ed that the use of correct En-
glish by the child depends largely upon
the efforts Of the parents, since by far
the grester part of the .child's time is
spent In the home. She urged the
parents TO sci good example by using
correct forms Of English themselves,

periodical and encourage the reading
of them, and finally TO lead the child
TO knowledge Of the great Literature
of the past and discou rage the reading
of so much of the trash which appears
in the present day novel.
The speaker dwelt especially on the
value of oral English MS one of the
methods in her work. The practice
OF having one period week devoted
TO oral English was started three years
ago. This comprises the reciting of
poems and speaking on current topics
for short period before the class.
-Four or five pupils are chosen each
week to provide the,program and are
given special instruction in voice
placement, correct position, and all
points which make for good public
speaking. The class which graduated
from the school last year had much
less instruction on their Commence
ment parts than previous classes, and
yet everyone noticed the exceptional
manner in which the various essays
were given, end Miss Keith thinks
much of the credit for this is due 10
the training which the class had for
two years in oral English work.
We are sorry there were not more
present to profit by Miss keith's splen-
did lecture.
After the lecture q short business
meeting was held and plans discussed
for the observing of Baby Week from
May 10 g. A committee will be ap
pointed and it is hoped that every or
ganization in the city will TAKE some
part in this important campaign TO
"Save the Babies" Further notices
of progress in this campaign will De
given later.
The picture committee of the Parent
Teacher association wishes to assure
the patrons of the ChiIdren's Matinees
that the mistake in the shipping of the
film last week was in no way.the fault
of the management of the theatre. We
were much disappointed In the pict
ure shown, which was a juvenile film
though not on our lists.
The committee and manager of the
theatre wish the public to know that
should mistakes occur in the future,
we will omit the matinee rather than
show lin which is not on the ap.
proved list.
We THANK you for the support of
TINS movement, and will be,yery glad
to receive suggestions for the improve
ment of the programs.
Robin Hood will be presented this
week.

Farmers Community Meetings
Agriculture aud Home Economies Dis.
cussed

Farmers community meetings are
being held in various homes in this
section. Monday night such meet
in was held at the home OF Clement
ellison in the Sawyer District and
Tuesday night at the home of G..
Clarke Pierce, Thompson.
These meetings are attended by
farmers of the neighborhood and are
held at the suggestion of the Windham
County Farmers Association as a part
of the extension work being done.
The meetings are in the interest of
agriculture and home economics and
farm accounts iand replannipg the
business for more profit is the general
head under which the informal dis
cussion comes.
1t is for the purpose Of giving those
in attendance chance to compare
work done and results accomplished
with an eye 10 reducing expenses and
increasing incomes.
Charts have been prepared giving
various aspects of the situation in and
about Putnam. For instance: IL has
been learned that On forty-one farms
in the vicinity OF Putnam the receipts
on the average farm are As follows:
Milk, sl047; cattle, slls; crops, sos;
poultry and eggs, SIG; outside labor,
500; swine, s43; all else, ssh,
The expense is divided as follows:
Feed, 1891; labor, Sao7; repairs and de-
probation, sil3, fertilizer ETC., s7l: In
sursnce, taxes and rent, See; all else,
S5i.
Ii this expense in any instance can
be dec eased or the income in any in
stance can be increased there is so
much more profit,
Ii is the aim of the work being done
by the association 10 put farming on a
business basis. To pay the proper
heed 10 expenses and income, to stop
leaks where leaks occur and to treat
farming As a business proposition the
same as any other business.
