LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Help For Zion.

MT. Editor: A number of public-spir- tied citizens of Norwich have framed a plan for relieving the pressing necessi- ties of Zion African Methodist Episcopal church, on Mckinley avenue. The facts are set forth in the accompanying statement
 l greatly appreciate your courtesy in permitting me through your columns to present the following statement with re- gard to Zion church.
 Two years ago the members found that, because of the difficulties in the housing situation in Norwich, it would be necessary in order to maintain a set tied pastor to secure a parsonage. A house, 14 Grove place, was purchased under a mortgage of s24oo. The mem bership of this church is about 50, and their resources small, but by great in- dustry and sacrifice, they have been able in two years to reduce the mortgage $500. and in addition they have secured a part of the necessary furniture for their parsonage. But. under existing conditions the work of the church is se- riously hindered.
 These facts came to the knowledge of friends of the church, and, at their sug- geStion, a plan vas made for rVmoying the mortgage of $500 upon the parson- age There is no debt upon the church. If this sum shall be forthcoming the church will be able to pay their minis ter a living salary and to undertake a broader and more helpful work for the colored people in the central section of the city.
 The pastor Rev. F. A. Lusan, and a cor'mittee of the church will present tt-4 cause to the citizens of Norwich The facts have been laid before the cornr-' '@ne of the chamber of commerce ar'' n'-~ 's e-dorsed by them Ct' . 1. Smith of the Boston Store will e- as treasurer of the fund, and receive and acknowledge the contribu- tions.
 If the response to this appeal of a worthy and dev~ed people is general and generous the debt will be raised.

FACTS REGARDING THE
 CARE OF THE BABY By Q. s. Public Health Service.
HABITs AND TRAINING.


 Habits are the result of doing the same thing great many times. If a small ac- ton is repeated often enough, the person does it without thinking and it becomes a habit. If the habit continues for long time, it may become difficult to break
 It is best that baby should have only good habits. Sometimes he learns or someone teaches him a bad habit These bad habits should be corrected as soon as possible, or before they become difficult to correct.
 Paciiers: One of the bad habits which is taught the baby is that of sucking a 'pacifier' or other object. The baby does not teach himself this disgusting practice and he should not have to suffer for it. The pacifier never is really clean and may carry germs of disease to the baby'a mouth. All paeifiers should be destroyed immediately and no such object ever should be put into the baby's mouth un- der any circumstances.
 The baby may teach himself to suck his thumb and fingers. Continual sucking of the thumb like sucking a pacifier, will spoil the natural beauty of the mouth by causing protruding of the upper jaw and teeth. It also causes a constant flow of saliva and spells the chiId's appearance.
 To cure the thumb-sucking, fasten a wooden tongue depressor (obtained at a drug store) or small piece of wood padded with cloth or cotton on the inside of the elbow over the sleeve. This will prevent the child from bending his arm to get his hand to his mouth. An aluminium mitten to prevent thumb sucking has been de- signed which may be purchased at most drug stores The use of this causes no discomfort and is preferable to other methods. This treatment should be con- tinued day and night until the habit is entirely cured.
 Control of Bladder and Stool Some babies may be taught to control the blad- der and stool during the day by the end of the first year. To do this it is neces- sary to put the child on the chamber at regular intervals and immediately after each meal, and on rising and going to bed.
 Bedwetting: To punish child for per sistent bedwettng is as cruel as it is worse than useless. A child should not wet the bed after one year of age. If he does, a physician should be consulted Many young person has had his child hood spoiled by this disorder, which il not cured while he is young may persist even to his old age.
 To cure bedwetting. first ask 8 physi- clan to make thorough examination oi the gentals and the urine to determine whether there is some condition which needs to be corrected Also to examine for adenoids, enlarged tonsils, decayed teeth or other source of nerve irritation Any physical defects discovered should be Corrected.

THOSE LITTLE HURTs.

A thought writer says: Taking life through and through, the larger part or the sadness and heartaches it has known has not come through it's great sorrows, but through little, needless hurts and unkindnesses not so much through the orderings of Providence as though the disorderings of humanity. Look back and you can readily count up the great griefs and bereaVements that have rent your heart and changed your life. You Erow what weary months they darken- e. There was \ certain sadness and dignity like the dignity of a lonely noun tain top, in their very greatness end, looking back. if not at the time, you can often understand their purpose But, oh "' the days that are spoiled by small CT hurts. spoiled becaHue somebody has a foolish spite. a wicked mood, an un- reasonable prejudice that must be grati- fled and have it's way no matter whose rights, plans, or hearts are hurt by it 1! There are so many hard places along the road for most of us, made hard needlessly by human selfishness, human neglect and human obstinacy, that the longing to be kind and tender should grow stronger in us each day"
 And then again there are many pes- pie in ordinary circumstances who are millionaires of cheerfulness They make their neighborhood brighter, happier and a better place to live in by their pres ence, they raise the value of every lot for blocks around them The world is beginning to see that people who can radiate sunshine and carry gladness and good cheer where they go, although they may be poor, are of infinitely greater value to society than the millionaire who pauperizes everybody who comes in contact with him by his close oppressive methods. Largeness of heart and gen. erosity of soul make millionaires of character, who are worth more to the world than mere money miilionaires.
 May the time yet come when We shall not have to depend on rich furnishings That character will become so enriched in the upward growth of the world that the surroundings, however costly, win be considered but a cheap setting for precious lifestone. Cheerfulness is a po- tent factor of success

created for cheaper grades of merchan- disc. The jeWelry manufacturers of At tleboro and Providence, who have been enjoying unprecedented prosperity dur ing the past two or three years, while still
 behind in their orders in certain branch es e. g. chain making, and hoping for a good fall business, appear to be slowing
 down somewhat, though wages remain l firm and the supply of help is, in general, l short. Conditions in the wool, cotton and l leather industries have not materially changed.
 1 In this situation merchants do not yet display unanimity of attitude with re- l spect to fall commitments some profess I to foresee an active buying movement, 1 believing that within two or three
 months basis will be reached, in staples at least, which justify purchases to re-
 new orders for suppianting depleted stocks while others are still apparently
 ruled by conditions and are proceeding l cautiously in laying in stock of fall goods.
