CONNECTICUT RATHnEs.

The amending of the Constitution Of tho United States, granting suffrage to women, constitutes a special emer- rency'' in the mind of Governor Hol- comb evidently because the women or tho state would find it impossible under said amendment to obtain the facilities to exercise their franchise without such special session.
 The special session of the general assembly was called, therefore, and ratified the 18th amendment. It is said that two-thirds of the members had already signified in writing their wish to so ratify.
 Further action is necessary. but the point is that Connecticut has cleared up a doubtful situation in the women suffrage matter. and that Governor Holcomb has at last found the special emergency he has failed to sec for SO long.
 Those in favor of woman suffrage nte glad indeed that Connecticut has come in finally. Those against it are sorry that the inevitable. which they refused to recognize as such, has happened. They are sorry that Con- necttcut has seemed to bow to that inevitable and assisted the cause in any way.
 But Governor Holcomb insists that no other matters of a general nature be allowed to come before the special session. So there awaits the housing situation to be considered after the cold of fall and winter has come and there is suffering in many quarters.
 If is believed that the best of the women who have gained the right to vote would be glad to foro that privilege in order that the special emergency concerning the rent mat ter might be considered. When woman does get into politics it is certain the human side of things will receive more consideration. And the housing matter is ono of them, but 1t is be- lieved that they see in it a special emergency right now"
 Meanwhile the Republicans may ton to enter into advanced military l tude of the Governor in regard tC special emergencies, but may the new | governor find his mind travelling in | direction somewhat different from that of the old.

COST OF LIVING.

It is interesting to note that a sur vey just completed by the National Industrial Conference shows that the cost of living has risen 4o4 per cent. in six years. The most sudden jump of course has come recently.
 Going into details it Is found that the cost of clothing has increased 166 per cent. while that of food only 1Os per cent.
 These figures are taken from the others for the purpose of drawing a comparison and refuting the popular idea that it is in food chiefly that the prices have scared.
 We dress better than our fathers and grandfathers. We have come to recognize the need of proper dress more than ever before. This fact en- ters into tho great increase in this part of the cost of living. Every old clothes movement failed except for a short time while the war was in progress. Tn this country 1t never was n success. Manufacturers reaped some Dcncfft. despite the ract that lhey uiu not prosper as much as they are given credit for doing. Retailers profted.
 Before the sudden rise in clothing that came in war time and directly thereafter. the clothing we wore was more extravagant than the food we ate. The high prices of more recent years arc evidence of the frmness with which our wish 10 dress we'll was implanted.
 There is now of course, a downward tendency although this was not shown by general figures through July.
 The war had much to do with ad- vanced prices. but 1t is believed that the demand for better living and bet ter clothing. coming with the greater luxury the prosperity of this country has brought to every man. would have increased the cost of living war or no war.

 The city and state should be au- thorized to purchase land and build thereon. he believes: renovation should be pushed; existing laws should be modified in regard to taxa ton so that private capital could be made available for housing purposes; cooperation of labor and those in control of building material should be obtained and unnecessary and sell fish building should be prohibited.
 These are some suggestions that all should consider in the face of what has become a real menace.

 Rev. J. F.. Klingberg has been in New Britain IT years, and in all that time, he has been praised for his excellent care of the children. It was not so long ago that he gave an art prize to the child who drew the best picture of him. Many of the pie lures were not complimentary. but he was the first to taught with his little wards. He never asks for himself, he always thinks of the children.
 The orphans themselves take an active interest in the new home and the slowing up of progress on the building has it's effect on the chill dren who have been taught that there were better things to be looked for.

"JBsT RUMINATIN'.~
(Robert Russell.)

This stuff that's rough" seems popular among a cer- tain few; they all look healthy, yet they have but little work to do. They congregate on corners an they saunter up the street, a-givin the "once over'' to most everyone they meet. Their leer creates a nausea in decent peoples minds that makes 'em feel like Twin in a mansion O closed blinds. Perhaps there isn't nothin' bad in this young certain few" but seems that they could find a lot O better things to do. Deep in their hearts they want to be like Lincoln an such folk. but if you try to lec- ture them they take it as a joke. Good-lookin'. strong. an full O life they waste away their days till they get set in carelessness an inefficient ways. That pipe O mine believes in youth: decries the dead ones" song that man must work an never play as months an years roll long. Achievement that is great don't come from them that is dried up with nought O joy to recollect when comes the final cup.
