THE ELECTION RESULT.

Good government is recognized and appreciated by the voters of the town of Norwich This was clearly shown by the handsome majority given to Inc republican candidates in Mondays election That there was much
 smaller vote than two years ago and a much larger majority can be attrib- Ureo to q large degree to the excellent showing that was made by the re- publicans in administering the affairs Of the town during the past two years IL was a foregone conclusion that the voters in looking after their own interests could do nothing better than to endorse the high class service that had been rendered and while many did this by voting the republi- can ticket there were many others who did it indirectly by remaining away from the polls and thus failing to raise any opposition
 The result shows what the people demand and what they arc willing to support when it is received and the decision as rendered cannot fail to be most gratifying to the successful can dSdztes from the very fact that their method of handling town affairs has received such a handsome endorse nenr- And it cannot fail. if it means anything at all to mean that the same high degree Of economy and ef- nc1euc- and the same grade of con s1enrious service will be assured the rc-n for the next two years 1t re- ceived iu the past InaSmuch as it l has been proved to them that they have capable officials in charge of the town business the voters have taken the proper steps 10 adequately ] protect their own interests

 Our note to the effect that the white mans custom of hand shaking g is regarded with amusement by sav- age races receives some modification by correspondent who has come into contact with natives in various stages Of development. from the des- pised kikuyu and Kavirendo to the advanced Zanzibar natives and intel ligent Yaos. Amongst all these he noticed that the practice Of hand shaking was religiously carried out.
 It may be- he says. custom they have adopted from the white man. but that scarcely explains the fact that they have different way of shaking hands
 The manner in which it is carried out is to shake hands once in the way we do, then to slide the palms to- gether, with the thumbs pointing up ward and curled round each other. and shake once again. The longer this alterna ting handshake is indulged in. the greater is the affection exist ing between the participants, and vice versa, so that mere acquaintance re- ceives but a scornfully negligent rub of the fingers.
 We were at twenty first birthday party a night or two ago writes a correspondent. when. during dinner, there fell on us one of those momen tary silenceS that will often occur even in a large and merry company. Everyone of course, noticed the cur ious pause, and one lady asked sud- denly what the time was.
 On being told that it was twenty minutes to eight she remarked, "Ah. thought so,'' On being further dues toned she told us that she had noticed for years that these momentarv si- fences always fell at twenty minutes to the hour or twenty minutes after agreed with her. Have you ever mo- ticed it?
 The debate in the Union House of Assembly fC> the ratification of the peace treaty gave General Smuts an opportunity of showing how much the icy of secession. General Hertzog chooses to regard South Africa's new privileges under the peace terms as an entry into the maelstrom of Euro pean politics, With responSlb1llIeS re- garding future wars. General Shuts showed that on the contrary South Africa was now freer to determine her own destiny than she had ever been before. During the last few years the self governing Dominions have ob- tained complete powers, not only to regulate their internal affairs. but to determine their foreign policy and to decide on questions of peace and war. Tn future they will deal with foreign affairs through their own representa- tives, and on the league of nations will be on an absolute equality with Great Britain So far from being drawn into foreign wars at the beck and call of Great Britain-aS was theoretically possible before-they now make their

HELPFUL WORDS
From a Norwich Citizen.

Is your back lame and painful?
 Does it ache especially after exer- ton?
 Is there a soreness in the kidney region?
 These symptoms suggest weak kid neys
 If so there is danger in delay.
 Weak kidneys get weaker fast.
 Give your trouble prompt attention.
 Doans Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys.
 Your neighbors use and recommend them.
 Read this Norwich testimony.
 Mrs Sarah Hewitt, R. F. D. No. 1, says: My back had been troubling me a great deal. I saw Doan's Kid ney Pills advertised for such trouble and I got some at Sevin & Sons Drug Store. Two boxes gave me great re- lief I gladly recommend Doan's Kid ney Pills publicly. as I know they de- serve all the praise I can give them"

IN THE DAYS NEWS
Why Corpus Christi Fell Victim to
 Floods.

Floods.
 An explanation of the coastal form ation which contributed to the terrible inroads of the floods that all but wip- ed out the city of Corpus Christi, and devastate other Gulf towns. is con tained in bulletin from the Wash ington headduarters of the National Geogra phic Society.
 The bulletin recalls that the Gal Feston flood of 1900. which resulted in the erection of the staunch sea walls that prevented a recurrence of destruction at Galveston, was not the first calamity of that sort which has visited southern cities.
 Witness the swallowing of LIsle Dernnere. a health and pleasure re- sort of New Orleans with most of it's transient popula ton just 40 years be- fore Galveston the bulletin says, quoting from @ communication to The Society.
 "The student who scans the shores of Atlantic and Gulf either on the ground or on the admirable maps of the Coast and Geodetic Surveys and the Hydroeraphic Office of our Navy. soon perceives that the relations be- tween wave-built bars and wave cut sea cliffs vary from coast-stretch to coast-stretch On the New Jersey coast the bars are beaten well hack to or beyond the line of the sea cliffs. that the ponds or sounds hehind the bars are relatively short and dis continuous; along the Flor cia coasts the keys stand farther out to sea. and are so separa ted from the mainland by great elongated sounds often afford ing navigable waterways; while a bout the northern shores of the Gulf the relations of the keys to sounds are more variable
 Closer study serves to interpret these variable relations: from Florida westward to Mobile Bay the keys are nearly continuous and the sounds long and narrows thence westward to Lake Borgne the typical keys are lost, though their lines continue in a se- ries Of islands-Ship Island. Horn Is- land Cat Island etc-senarate ted from the main3and by the broad Mississippi sound still further westward a new series of keys, cratic in form and trend appears in the Chandeleur Is lan6s, and beyond the delta there is a corresponding (and correspondingly erratic) series of low keys stretch ing westward nearly or quite to At chafalaya Bay.
 Now, the mainland shore of Mis- sissippi Sound is marked by series of small and narrow keys and sounds evidently in process of growth. but much less advanced than those east of Mobile Bay: and these are among the evidences that along this stretch of shore the Gulf has encroached On the land to s1ch an extent as to leave the original keys 20 to 40 miles behind Similarly the Chandeleur keys and
Norwich bulletin., 1919-10-07

the corresponding series west of the delta are small and new and obvi- nusly connected with the delta build ing.
 West of AtchafaIava Bay the coast is characterized by the absence of keys and sounds save of the infan- tile sort, like those of the inland shore of Mississippi Sound; so that this sho!b seems inconsruous with the rest, until the student. discovers the long line of completely submerged keys Sabine Bank. Trinity Shoal, Ship Shoal etc.-in a portion precisely cor responding to the islands south of Mississippi Sound and forming di- rect submarine connection (saVe as cut off by the delta) between these islands of the eastern Gulf and the well developed keys of the southern Texas shore.
 The position of these banks. like that of the Horn Island and its feI- lows is such as to demonstrate that the waters have invaded the main land. and that west of the delta the encroa chment has been sufficient n5t merely to push back the shoreline 50 to 100 miles, hut completey to sIub- merge the ancient keys.
 "The n~st striking feature cf these drowned and drowned k.ys is their symmetric arrangement: except for the interruption by the delta CWitn it's new and lesser sand banksD. the great oars form a sweeping curve reg ular as the beach line of a land locked bay. and hence affo,d rough measure of the outbuilding of the delta as well as of the invasion of the Gulf on it's Hanks. Hardly less striking than the syrmnktry Of the series is the closenesS of continuity between keys and banks; and it is a jgnihcant fact that Galveston Island is the northeastern terminus of the wcst-cOast system of keys the last stretch of these sand banks still rising above the level of tide.
 Tt is the business of the geologist to detect and weigh the evidences of sub sidence or elevation of coasts and to estimate the rates of movement for the guidance of local residents and in- vestors; and it behooVes such citi- zens to avail themselves of the scien tific researches.

Scotland's declaration of independ- ence was signed in the Abbey of Ar proath- an ancient burg on the Forfarshire coast in the year 1920. To celebrate suitably this historic event steps are being taken to hold week s pageant and an old world fair, and an effort is to be made to induce royalty to take part in the proceedings The king is to spend a considere ble part of next season in Scotland. and it is hoped that his Majesty Or the Prince of Wales may grace the occasion with their presence.
 It may seem at first incongruous that the King of England should take part in a ceremony at which full vent will be given to Scotia's patriot ic feelings but it shows how far we have travelled since the day when that declaration. ever memorable to Scots men, was signed.

 Blackberry picking is in fashion with the many. and all along the outer fringe of London busy gatherers are to be seen.

 But our choicest bramble will not bear comparison with the American species, a prolific bearer ofa fine big berries. Its long trailing branches stretch out for 20 feet on either side, and each is heavily laden with fruit, of which more than 50 pounds will often be gathered in one season from one bush.

 No doubt there is a good deal to be said for the preservation of that no ble virtue which is said to cover a multitude of sins. But the national which we can afford to take risks: and one of the disquieting aspects of hos pital poverty is that free treatment is no longer universal. One of the larg- est institutions in London is now com pelled. owing to financial straits. to levy a charge of Sd. each time a pa tient visits the building.

 He was not always so free with. his magical hands. Some years ago while shaking hands with a friend his fin gers came into contact with the light ed end of cigar, and for a day or two he was unable to play.

THE STRIKE SETTLEMENT.

Nothing of course could be Of any greater importance to Great Britain just zc this time than the ending of rhe great railway strike which while -is- has not completely tied up or starv- d the country has resulted in a great handicap 10 industrial opera tons and been the cause of embar- zaSsnert in many directions. The adjustment Of the differences has been Accomplished through the efforts of government heads labor leaders and the concIliarion committee of the trade union
 Perhaps it was as surprising that an agreement should have been reach cd ss quickly as it was that the rail- way workers should have entered up On the strike with the abruptness that they did. but it IS significant. in con- necriou with the understanding that the present wages shall be maintained until next September. that the min- mum Day Of adult workmen shall be not less than s12-T5 Q week as long as the cost Of living is no per cent. above pre- war times and the agreement to pay the men the wages held up as soon as they return. that both sides -ars claiming victory or else neither szEe is but both are satisfied to look upon it as q satisfactory adjustment.
 One thing that the strike has done however. and that is it has made plain that there is no disposition throughout the country to allow the revolutionary element or bolsheviki to -et an upper hand The people were ready to respond to such demands as would have to be made upon them for the suppression of anything of the kind and 1t was to the credit of the la .bor leaders that they fought the idea -of a general sympathetic strike -- The ending of the strike removes a sthreatened- menace that has given British authorities no little concern but which they were prepared to zzckle with all the strength that the developments called for.
