FJUME AND FRAU, AND so FORTH

There seems to be a decided move ment for the retention of the City of Plume, in Dalmatia, so lately "capturcd'' by D'Annunzio and his "loyal rebcls,' under way in Italy. The government has undoubtedly yielded to popular sentiment and is prepared to repudiate it's signature to the Peace Treaty and make an effort to annex the coast city which has been the cause of so much conten- the dissolution of the Italian parlia- ment, may decide what Italy is to do. It is certain that strenuous efforts will be made to follow up D'An- nunzio's coup, between the present time and the reassemblage of the new Parliament in December
 There has been a great deal of question about the course of pro- cedure to be followed by the other governments should the Italians break from their ranks and proclaim that Plume must be theirs. President Wilson has been appealed to, but we do not know that he has answered. He has evidently succeeded in pass ing the buck" along. strict in depreciation of international law 1 would lead to the conclusion that | D Annunzio in occupHing Plume, actually made what is tantamount to a declaration of war against all of the l belonged to the vanQuishers of a conquered enemy and appropriated it as his own while it is still to be re- 1 garded as the possession of the Peace been decided and, pending the deci- sion, it remained as debatable terri tory. However, it is under the pro- lection of the Allies and can not yet belong to Italy. Should the Italian government demand it from the Allies there could be little controversy. The 1 answer would have to be yes or no, you may have 1t, or you may not. But should ltaly Dack up U AnnunZlO and declare it hers there is defiance of authority which would result in Italy becoming the first outlawed nation. There are two courses of procedure

AUTO DRIVERS ARE
 VIOLATING STATUTE
Voice Complaint That Cars Are Passed While PaSsen-
 gers Are AIighting.

Trolleymen employed by the Con- necticut company on all of the local lines complain that autoists in this city and nearby towns have made a habit of violating the motor vehicle law by going past standing trolley 'cars while people are alighting. Since the fatal accident yesterday afternoon In which 8 Hartford motorman was killed while trying to throw a switch in Vernon street, local trolleymen are Hooking out for violators and will re- port all speeding autoists.
 The place where autoists seem to be the most careless on the local lines is at the state highway in Berlin where automobile traffic is heavy and where many of the autoists fail to stop their autos while people are alighting.
 Several of the motormen have come to the decision that all autoists passing trolley cars at an excessive rate of speed while passengers are alighting will be reported by them to police headquarters. Autoists in the city are more careful owing to the many officers about the streets.

Good evening everybody" said MT. Modem, as he came up the path that led to Dick-i-will and Bill-t- cant's front door.
 Why, good evening, MT. NOddem. said both boys at once, i've did not get a chance to thank you last even ing for telling us that pretty story.
 fNh Don't mention it, said MT. Modem. Do you wish to hear an- other story?"
 "Of course we do," Said Dick-iwill
 eo. MT. Noddem cur}ed himself up comfortably in -a ~haiy and started another storss It was the story of the Winds.
 "1 am an old, old man, now,' said Mr. Modem. But in my day, l was a good sailor. I have travelled all over. the earth and back again many "'aSs @Sne s'4ss as ,st after I had returned from a loW n1ia ge, I was sitting under an ae e tree smoking my watch'ng p'ps a"e Hs "nd listening N to them sing.
 up in the branches of the tree, I heard the winds blowing. They seemed to be having a terrible fight and I listencd Sailors have a habit of listening to the winds, whether they are on land at sea-
 The winds were really having a fight up there in the branches of the old apple tree. The North Wind and The South Wind, The East Wind and The West Wind, were calling each other names and acting like -four rather rough, noisy, yes bad boys.
 "I tell you, I am the best of all the winds said the North Wind, in a loud strong voice.
 "'Oh No' said the South Wind very quietly, I am the best
 "Indeed, you are not screamed the West Wind.
 "No, of course not broke in the East Wind, Everybody knows that l am the best!'
 "So they kept it up, each one ex- claiming that he was the best of all the other winds. At last, I got tired of listening to them. You see, I know all about these winds, every one of them, East and West, North and South I know all their tricks l knew just how mean they could be at times and how kind and gentle they could be at other times. No one knows more about winds than an old sailor. tA
 "'Now, boys I said, stop that row, and I shall decide which of you is the best-if there is any best The winds lowered their voices to a. whisper and then became very quiet to listen to my story.
 "I told the winds that when l was very little boy, I had run away from home-the very worst thing a boy can do. I stole aboard a whaler bound for the Arctic ocean. A whaler

DEVELOPING THE PARKS,

New Britain people interested in the Weltare of the city and of their fellows may scarcely afford to ignore the possibilities for development that present themselves in the two pieces of property at the north and south ends of our community now owned by the public and at present lying idle. Extensive plans, tentative as yet, have been made by landsca pc artists for the process of building up recreation grounds on the plots. and the Park Commission is ready to start upon the work when conditions warrant it, providing the public wisAes it to do so. A $500, 900 bond issue has been authorized by the Legisature and will be 1oated by the city aNsome future date. Campaigns for stFAt economy in city affairs have

A Prince in Distress.

"At Helsingfors there is a young prince, little more than boy, who IS practically barefoot, with no prospect of better shoes when winter comes. The soles have disappeared and he limps painfully as he picks his way over the rough cobbled streets. '-As- sociated Press dispatch.
 Unhappy is the lot of princes noWa- days. Most of them have been cast down from their high estate, though not all of them, probably, are as badly off as the unfortunate Russian youth here described The last five years have been a hard time for European royalty, but this little picture from the Finnish capital is particularly pa- tahetic.
 For the young prince at Helsingfors no doubt had nothing to do with his dramatic change of fortune. He was bred to a certain place in the world, and now he suddenly finds himself flung out from it by a turn of events far too large for hip to manage or crcumvent. He may have been. and very likely was, an exemplary prince, carefully brought up, courteous and considerate, filling to the best of his ability the station to which fate had called him. But now fate has called him to a station of an entirely differ ent kind. We should like to know what his attitude Is toward it.
 If he is content to wander about in- definitely in soleless shoes, making no effort to improve his condition, there is not much need to pity him. But if he adjusts himself to his altered outlook and goes philosophically to work, he will show that he possesses something more substantial than his princely title, which at the present time is of very little value to him.

 Senate yesterday and was naturally seized upon as an argument against the League of Nations, an outcome which was foreseen some time ago. However, this nation is still at war with Germany, German possessions are now occupied by American troops and it is fitting that the cnemy's re- linQuished lands should be taken over by some of the Allies. There has been no mention of French or British troops aiding in this occupation but, even then, the T'nited States had no choice but to obey the orders of the Peace Council and hold the contested strip. There is no indication that this same condition will obtain when the League of Nations pact is ratified. If the Senate has cause for it's argu- ment and the present policy is to be continued, the League it useless. But circumstances will be different after an adjustment of difficulties, if they ever are adjusted The contested territory will then be the property of a nation or a group of peoples, not debatable ground. The rebels, of any nation, will act with greater discre- tion with the force of the world aligned against them. They will hes itate long before attempting to seize anothers land. Even D'Annunzio "sQuatter' par excellence may find his spirit curbed.

Taught By the Law.
(New York Times.)


 It is sensible for the Boston Gen. tral Labor Union to decide against calling "a general strike at this time.' The Boston police strike, with it's na- tural intentions and it's inevita ble re- suits of disorder and crime, has shown what the utilization of po- lice union, so called, with a general labor union means. Nobody of sense and reason will approve it.
 It has been demonstrated in a great community that public senti- ment is solidly opposed to the sur render, for labor purposes, to anarchy resulting from the attempt of the sworn officers of the law to lean on Ia Dor organizations and abandon the law. No city. no place, will en- courage the protectors of order to betray it to disorder.
 The Boston Central Labor Union has learned it's lesson. It has had to yield to the inevitable facts.

THE LAW.

Discouraged, are you? Remember The pendulum will yet swing back; The sun will rise again, nor miss To banish night, however black. Is summer gone? The tides of time Are swiftly setting toward the spring, A-thrill with life and love sublime, Alloy with bluebirds on the wing Your roses dead? Within the earth Their seeds but wait the seasons turn. All death and failure are rebirth; This is the lesson man must learn. Behold the oceans changing tides, How first they ebb, and then they flow, And how no winter time abides, Nor chilling winds forever blow As all are ruled by one Great Will, And act in harmony divine, So may your life be governed still By resolutions strong and fine For will is law, and can create, Combined with faith and word and
 thought.
 You have the tools to mould your fate And are today what these have
 wrought.
 Affirm, then, your returning chance, Nor halt by doubt or fear the day Of happy mind and circumstance The Law has started on it's way Mary Hester Force in October Nau-

FLANK LONG"
 Tells the Story of MT. Modem and the Wind for Children

Is ship that sails to very cold places, 1 where the whale lives. The men on 1 the ship kill the whales, take the oil
 which is in the whale and sail home
 again to sell 1t.
 The captain of our ship was a very cruel man and he treated me shamefully. l am glad to see that captains are not so mean and cruel l nova days.
 After we had sailed for several l weeks we saw our first whale and
 took it. We took all the blubber from the whale. Bubber Is the fat from which the oil Is made.
 We were all very happy, after we had caught that whale, but it
 was weeks and weeks before we saw another one. The captain became very cross and treated all the men shamefully. just as If 1t were our fault that he did not catch more whales.
 1T was the youngest on the ship. ,, The captain seemed to treat me worse
 than he did the others. One day, he said: Here, you boy, go scratch the
 mast When there was no wind blowing, the sailors always sent someone to scratch the mast just as if that would bring them good luck and make the wind blow. Well, I tell you, I scratched that mast until my fingers were as raw as a piece of beefsteak. I kept wishin g and wishing that I was home safe in my little bed. Home with my father and mother and little brothers. I 1 think the dear old North Wind heard
 my wish and felt sorry for me. .A
 "Yes, am sure the North Wind felt sorry for me for just then he started blowing, until we had to take down most of our sails. All the sails
 are not needed, you know. when the i wind blows so awful hard. ''The North Wind blew our ship along for some distance, until we blew right into a school of whales. Whales always swim in great crowds called schools.
 "I tell you the captain worked us hard then. We took fifty of these | whales, fifty great big fellows with lots of blubber in them. The next day.we sailed for home. Just as soon as we got near shore I slipped into the water from the ship, and sWam
 ashore and was soon home. l guess
 to this day, my mother thinks the North Wind is the best. And I can : well see why she thought so. l AS I finished my story and was re- 1 lighting my pipe, I heard the North Wind scream, There, what did 1 tell you, I am the best!"
 .Is he the best wind, MT. Modem ?'' asked Dick-i-will.
 well see about that" said MT. Modem, wait until you boys hear the rest of the story.

resulted in the temporary abandon ment of development
 The public recei>ed d liberal edu- cation in the uses of parks when the Welcome Home celebration was held. There are few that approve of the holding of the carnival on Walnut that property sustained. Still, it is the peoples property and the people have the final say as to what use will be made of their land. It was de- cided to hold the carnival on the park and that is sufficient to quell any persons who might be too boist erous in their objections to the carnival. However, the affair showed what may be done with the city's land, providing there is sufficient attraction to gather a crowd. The dance floor, under municipal auspices, attracted thou sands; the ball games, the tireW orls and the Memorial Service all at
 
 were of different walks of life and of different tastes. There was som mething| to appeal to everyone. Even in the ordinary course of events, the park is well patronized-at band concerts and so forth. Tho pool at the top of the hill is a favorite resort for many
 
 furnishes a spot where they may wade and splash about in the water with absolute safety.
 Plans for the incorporation of similar spots into the undeveloped properties have been made. There will be swimming pools, wading pools open-air theaters and numerous other outdoor attractions, including the much desired dance hall. The pro- gram is extensive. but we believe that the people of the city are ready for the work. Walnut Hill Park is a beauty spot and a favorite resort. It WILL unuOuDleuly COulllluo tO Do so, but there is room for more such parks.
 The pieces of property that are now owned by the community{saare situated on the outskirts of. New Britain today; they will be we'll within the city limits before many years have passed. That on the south is naturally beautiful and' an ideal location for a public recreation spot. It has d stream. of good size flowing through it. and it's vegetation is, even now effective and unusual. The gentle roll of the land adds to it's attra ctiveness. The land to the north is not as pleasing to the eye in it's rough state, but will lend itself very readily to development and make d beautiful park if the plans are put through, as they probably, will be some day. It is a question to be an swered by the public as to when this work is to be started. ..The sentiment of the community, providing it is favorable, will warrant the commits sioners' proceeding at once.
