we serve the best in a manner that will be heralded about the country and if we play the host in a charming way so that we will also become known Tn time, build up a satisfying and pay ing trade. It will take time and the expenditure of money, though. Our deeds will have to become known be- fore we start to realize upon our in vestment and our expenses will be pill ing up while our favors are being ad vertised about the country. The world will beat a track to our door providing we can give good reasons for it's doing so. That is true in any locality. But it is hard 10 achieve.
 Does New Britain need a first class hotel and dining room? It does--and it does not. The city has several hO tcls, all of them quite naturally being run as money making propositions. They arc just such buildings as the de- mands of the city require. The land lords are giving us what we actually need, what we ask. They are making money to some extent and giving the service that their trade demands. They have neither the time nor the funds to cater to the trade that might eventual a superior hostelry. Theirs is a bus mess proposition; not an expensive search for the attainment of some- thing beyond the real need of the city. On the other hand, could the money be found and the time spent, to culti- vate exclusive and high priced trade and to develop an individualistic insti- tuition here the expenditure would ultimately be justified.
 A proportion of our transients now go to Hartford. for accommod odations The local institutions take care of the rest. We must, therefore, build ho- tel that will outrival any of Hart ford's in service and convenience. Even then there will not be enough paying guests to warrant our eXpendi- turc. Therefore, with excellence as our motto, we must create a demand, which does not now exist but which may be built up, among travellers. We must draw from all sides individuals who would go elsewhere, unless there were unusual attractions here, through cJ, l r, ,i- if the money can be found to maintain the standard while the receipts are not coming in we may be assured that our hotel will pay. Its indirect results in advertising the city will also be tangible assets to the community.

states which have spent large appro- Iriations upon highways which needed reconstruction after a season or two undoubtedly will seek detailed infor- nation as to why New York selected concrete.
 Dura bility is more important than a saving in first cost. The most eNpen- siVe road may easily be the cheapest if the cost of maintenance and the convenience of the people are taken into account. A surface that stands Up for ten or fifteen years is more economical than one which must be renewed at frequent intervals. Be- sides, the uninterrupted use of high way is worth something, detOurS are not satisfactory, and add much to the troubles of travellers. State funds accordingly, should be invested only in the best of road construction. The benefits of cheap material are only temporary, and no progressive and Well-infOrmed highway department is likely to be content with the standards of twenty years ago.

Cheap Roads Arc Costly.

New York, after experiences with road materials not adapted to the re- qulrements of modern traffic, has de- cided to substitute reinforced concrete for water bound mHcadam on state highways. The state highway depart7 ment also proposes to have pavements eighteen feet wide, an increase of four feet over the width of the roads laid out a few years since. The report that New York is to discontinue the use of materials which disintcgrate under the wheels of high-poWered ve- hicles is of interest throughout the country, for the decision is based upon many years of experimenting, and

Will it be Justified if it is erected and outfitted in q sum ptuous fashion? The people of the city will be given an opportun ity to answer these questions later on when the Chamber issues question naires to the business men. Mean while there is a vast opportunity for Speculation. especially for those who are unfamiliar with the details of the hotel business.

COUNT ROCHAMBEAU'S IILACS

Following upon the comm un ication of Park Commissioner Brooks giving the history of the lilacs which were planted upon Walnut Hill Park and which at one time grew upon the site of Count Rochambeau's camp in Southington, it has been further brought to our attention that the bushes were planted as a memorial to the soldiers and sailors of the present war. The bed has been laid out in* the form of a letter "S," sig nifying Soldiers, Sailors, Service.
 The sentiment behind the planting of the flowers as a memorial cannot proval. They are a slight testm onial in one way, it is true, but they are a permanent one Their blooms will tighten the hearts of beholders for many years to come. To one famil- far with their history, the derivation of the bushes will be most pleasing and aprOpos. The French were our OmradeS-in- arms during that strife as we were theirs in the recent one. The children of the silent witness who looked upon Count Rocham- beaus men will stand as mute testi- monials to our soldiers of the Great War.

One of Lifc'S Failures.
(NeW York Herald.) )

The local papers recently reported the suicide of a young married man "despondent because of illness and his ina bility to get work" In a great city, with it's millions of inha bitants, such an incident is likely to be passed over as one of the minor events of the day. Back of that event, which readers of newspapers scarcely mo- tice and which the police merely rec ord on blottcr with many others, there is the greatest tragedy of all the failure to obtain work.
 When a man with wife and children fails to obtain a position whereby he can provide for those dependent upon him there must be reason Either the man does not possess the necessary physical and mental energy to fight for a job' or the men who have work to give out lack ordinary humanity. The reformer jumps to the conclusion that the whole econ- omic system is wrong; that society is on a false basis when a husband and father takes his own life because of failure to obtain work. Without minimizing the tragedies which come into the lives of all people, without CISCO ulllnS the QlIlCulLloS 0lte00lnS the battle of life, it can be stated without contradiction there never was a time when the world offered so many jobs for those showing spirit and determination aS now. There never were so many men eager and willing to help the worthy to an op- pOrtunity as there are at present. But the world dislikes sobbcr or a weakling; it has jObS-gOod jobs only for the strong and the energetic Suicide is a confession of a lack of courage and self-confidence so neces sary in life.
 The man and the job may be slow in meeting but they will surely meet if the man is worthy. Men of affairs are looking for the husbands and fathers whom no hard luck. no dis aster, no catastrophe can overcome; who look upon life as a battle where the valiant and strong and self-reliant can always "get a job" and win
