ISTEN, fellows, to some
straight talk. Many
a man when he gets
to be 40, misses some
thing. He may have
lots of money, and a fine
family but
He never SCOT out and
saw things. After he
gets settled down, it's too
late.
Every man wants to see
the world. No man likes
to stand still all his life.
The best time to TRAVEL

An Encouraging Experiment.

VIM. A. White in his editorial says:
"A most encouraging experiment in
practical cooperation in religion and
education is progressing in Wisconsin.
There all the UNCONVENTIONAL colleges
in the state have united in a special
state wide campaign for five million
dollars. The Catholics and Protestants
and the colleges like Beloit which start
ed as UNCONVENTIONAL and have grad
ually lost their UNCONVENTIONAL charac-
ter are joining in the movement, and
when the five million is secured it will
be divided upon pro rata of the at
tendance of the various schools.

Place for Small College.


Wisconsin is typical western state;
it has something like dozen denomina-
tional colleges and the usual state in
situations of higher education-the uni
versity the agricultural college and the
various normal schools. Ten thousand
students ordinarily attend the univer-
sity and the agricultural college, which
are located in one town, three thousand
attend the normal schools and two or
three thousand students go to the de-
nominaional colleges. Complaint is
made in Wisconsin that there are too
many colleges; the same complaint is
made in all western states; but the
complaint is not justified.
The small colleges have small facul-
ties who give close personal attention
to the students, and as matter of fact
considering that the average small col
lege devotes itself almost exclusively
to students seeking the A. B. degree
plus a little special training in music
the faculties of these colleges han
die as many students as they can han
die and if the colleges did not exist
the universities would have to employ
more teachers.

ALL LITIGATION
 ENDED; TO CLOSE
 DAM TOMORROW

Settlement being effected yesterday in the injunction proceedings brought against the Conn &eticut Light & Power Company by Nathan W Hen dryx of New Haven. engineers at the big Stevenson dam in the Housatonic river were preparing last night to close the gates and begin flooding the Il, ,5GO acre basin. By the middle of next week, the place that was once
 the village of Riverside will be under water and a new ten-mtle lake-the largest in ConnectiCut-wiu have been created in the Housatonic valley. At the present flow of the river, about 1, 900 cubic feet of water will be emp
 tied into the growing lake. every sec
 ond until the water level reaches the
 top of the dam.
 There are four gates near the base of the dam. One of them will be left open during the time the basin is fill ing, in order to permit some water to pass down the river to other indus tries. When the water in the lake reaches the level of two gates nearer the top of the structure, the last gate at the base will be closed and when the water reaches the top of the dam, the two upper gates will also be closed. Officials of the company said last night that water will be flowing over the top of the dam Wednesday night, if not sooner.
 On account of the large amount of
 preliminary work that remains to be done with the generating system af- ter the water pressure is applied, it
 will be several weeks before the plant will become the regular supply for
 Waterbury, New Britain and other towns and cities of the state.

None of the great ques- tiOns have been acted upon They are just waiting, waiting and waiting for the presidential election of 1920. Why does not Congress do business? Be cause they might make a mistake"
 Mrs Bass covered the whole period while the women of America were looking for the ballot and pointed out that in all that time the Republicans had done very little. The Democrats, she said, had helped in the movement and said that President Wilson was the first president who had ever come out in favor of votes for women. Mrs Bass showed by the votes of the Re publican National convention in Chi cagO in 1916 and the Democratic Ma ;tional convention in St. Louis the same year that the Republicans did not help while the Democrats recom- mended that women be allowed to vote.

NEW WAYS ID MEET SUGAR
 SHORTAGE

The sugar shortage has necessitated greater thought on the part of the housewife concerning the sweetening of foods without sugar. There are other sweeteners besides sugar on the market which can be used successful ly to make really good desserts. We have our dried fruits, such as raisins, dates, currants, which are largely made up of sugar. They are more expensive, but in buying them you obtain for your money not only a sweetener but flavor and mineral salts which keep our bodies in good condition. CocOanut is another food which saves sugar.
 Molasses is familiar to all. Every one appreciates molasses cakes and cookies and buildings which are sweetened with molasses.
 Corn syrup is doing it's share to re- lieve the sugar shortage and there are cane syrups on the market which are very satisfactory. Our old friends honey and maple syrup, are almost prohibitive in price,
 At the Food Hut on State street yesterday, a Sugarless, Sweet Demon stration was given to a very inter- ested group of women. Miss Gladys | B. Green started her demonstrate with the making of a pumpkin pie which was made of dehydrated pump kin, and entirely sweetened with corn syrup. Next plain white cake was made Miss Green explained that in order to have the texture of a cake up to standard a little sugar must be ! used. She showed the making of a cake which usually required one and one-haf cup sugar and one cup syrup. The filling for the cake required no sugar and was sweetened with cane syrup. Lastly a custard with no other sweetening than dates was made and won the hearty approval of all who ! sampled it. The recipes used at the Food Hut yesterday are as follows: Pumpkin Pie. F cups cooked and strained squash
 or pumpkin 1 cup corn syrup

CONTE ORARY CLUB HEARS
 DIPLOMAT

Members of the Contemporary club met last night at the home of Miss Mary L. Fitch on Boston avenue, when a most delightful talk upon Embarrassing Moments in a Dip1o- mats Life,' was given by Hon. Mau- rice Francis Egan. The speaker first spoke briefly of the opportunities open to men and women in the United States and compared America with European countries. MT. Egan was former ambassador to Denmark and he related his experiences in that country.
 The coming of the Ford Peace Treaty to Denmark in the winter of 1916, was referred to as ''the most embarrassing incident in my career as a diplomat He told of the incl dent as follows:
 Word came fo Copenhagen that a peace ship carrying all the great Americans with the exception of May or Hylan, was on it's way to Europe to order all the soldiers out of the trenches by Christmas. The Allies looked upon this as a very inpertin- ent move as any negotiations for peace at that time were all consider ed of German origin, but the neu- trals seemed to think it was more of an American adver Using scheme on the part of Henry Ford. Later, however, this opinion changed and the people of the neutral countries looked upon Ford as a great genius, accom- plishing a great task which only an American would attempt"
 The speaker told of the peace par tvs visit to Norway and Sweden, and finally to Copenhagen, but by the time it reached that place, all the

 He then told of his difficulties in seeing the party through Germany to the Hague and of the final success in liberating them and himself from any trouble.
