state was accomplished for them only by the means of added labors on their part. They considered the prize worth an effort no part of which is necessary for the boy born in this country. These men are prouder of the fact that they are American citi- zens than are the American boys with their first ballot in their hands, The fact is another proof that {. thing IS valued in proportion to the effort re- qu:red to gain it. Thc appreciation comes later to the native born youth and it is possible some of the pride of the foreign-born wears off with his Increasing familiarity with American affairs.
 And herein lies the pathos and shame of it. The greater ones expec- tations and the stronger ones faith. tho keener ones disappointment in a failure of the reality. Ambition in Americans to be better citizens-to Justify the strangers faith in the value of his new possession would De a pretty good ambition to have.

MUSIC IN NEW BRITAIN.

Probably there is no need to hold a brief for music as an educational factor in life; even those who can with difficulty tell the difference be- tween "Yankee Doodle" and a Bee thoven sonata recognize it's value. But recognition of it's value and doing something to reap it's benefits are very different propositions.
 It seems that New Britain and vii cinity offers a splendid field for the development of musical possibilities which would bring benefits not only to those directly interested but also to many who heretofore have had 10 opportunity to know what the real sort of music is.
 It is scarcely fair to decry the musical taste of those who express their enjoyment of ragtime when many of them know nothing of any other sort of music-the word is used for the lack of better term to desiS- nate the thing so prevalent. New
 
 tunity and it seems rather a burying of talents to allow matters to drift on without akinS a trial at least for something decidedly worth while.
 One is impressed by the number of persons-children and adults-one meets carrying violins or other must cal instruments on the street. One realizes at once the foreign element which predominates here and the in born love Of music which character izes the races composing it. Young people of these races would flock to a conservatory: their parents would make real sacrifices, were they needed, to give those children d musi cal education, and something vital would develop which would, in time, stamp the city with distinctive mark of which it's people would be proud.
 It would be wise if those interested in teaching music in New Britain were to take advantage of the situa tion so patent and so promising be- fore outside musicians learn of the splendid. almost virgin field and open a conservatory of music here that would be bound to bring great results.

TEACHERS LOYALTY.

Probably there is no more loyal | q patriotic class of persons in this |untry than it's school teachers. The 'EaIs which lead them to take up Ie work arc conducive to this qual- \, and the habit of mind formed in Iosecution of the work intensifies |eir wish to inplant right thinking the minds of their charges. Yet tlure to understand the significance certain independent theories has |casionally led to the questioning of lat loyalty.
 |The echoes of a case of this kind Washington have scarcely died It, though the facts became known |pnths ago. Now the Lusk com Ettee of the New York legislature Is recommended the enactment of gislation to require all teachers in |e public schools to obtain certifi- |tes of qualification in which it is born that the holder has indicated
 
 bte and Federal constitutions and loyal to the institutions and laws the State and Nation. Further provide for special hining of teachers of foreign-b born Id native adults and increased edu- |tional facilities for such foreign Prn adults. lit is no slur upon the teachers of |e country to urge that they, above persons perhaps, should under hnd the importance of a clear un- lrstanding of theoretical and prac- Eal laws of loyalty. Confident of |eir own patriotism, and graspinS |e vital difference between inde- |ndence in thought and freedom of |eech, and independence and speech lat may be of doubtful loyalty, they |e apt to fall into the error of fail |g to emphasize the basic necessity |r fidelity to country that must un- krIie all freedom and independence. byaI teachers should not feel in |lted by such provisions; they |ould understand that the impor- |ncc of their work. is thus recog- |zed,

ESPECIALLY INSPIRING.

There is something appalling in the presence of an insane person. A feel ing Of helplessness pervades one, deepened by distress. The feeling is intensified where hundred of dement, ed persons are gathered together, and it is a cool man indeed who over comes that instinctive sense of a lack of power and retains his calmness in d moment of emergency under such conditions.
 The other day twelve hundred in sane persons were gazing at the weekly moving picture show given for their benefit on Wards Island. They were some of the patients of the Man haitian State Insane Asylum and were under the watchful eye of Superin tendent Hcyman who was in attend ancc with bis family. He alone dis covered u tiny flame trickling around tho corner of the screen. Quietly he went to the stage and, without alarm ing the insane spectators. succeeded in having them march from the building in orderly fashion just before the flames burst forth
 This was not a case of the power of one sane mind over many that were unbalanced. The spectators knew nothing of the fire they fell in and marched to safety. But it was a remarkable example of mans mastery of self under circumstances which make the exhibition inspiring.
 How trivial seem the excuses often given for failure to accomplish some simple duty in the light of an action of this sort The Superintendent was impelled by the knowledge that the lives of many of the patients depend ed upon his coolness, of course, and this fact was compelling. But this knowledge was the result of reason- ing. while the fear that must have come was instinctive and much more difficult of denial. If one were able to put into the small things of daily life d little more of the feling its up to me and nobody else' there would be fewer failul es of duty.
 R Remembering the action of Dr. Heyman, and realizing fully the ef- feet the gathering of insane persons would have. one should be ashamed to say ever: "I couldn't do it yestcr- day--you sec it rained.'

THE IRISH RESERVATION.

Theoretically the Senate has gone
 record as "adhering to" the prin- l pie of self -determina ton, has reaf- |med it's sympathy with the aspira- |pn of the Irish people for govern | ent of their own choice, and has kclared "that when such govern | ent is attained by Ireland, a con-
 mmation it is hoped is at hand it hould promptly be admitted as a
 ember of the League of Nations" How much the vote on this reser- |Ltion to the. treaty was affected by Ne apparent confidence in the Senate ! lat the treaty itself would be re- cted is a matter of conjecture. It possible some votes were obtained sr it in the faint hope that it's in |usion would tend to defeat the pact |self. That this confidence is not ab- Rlute is indicated by the warm fight
 rer the wording of the reservation.
 pme of the Senators. while staunch l their sympathy With the Irish
 ms, were opposed to extending the heory of the wisdom to self-deter- ination to all nations. Others, in- |uding Senator Lodge, seemed to bnsider the adoption of such a reso- I tion hypocritical in view of the fact ! lat the United states had prosecuted Se Civil war in direct opposition to | at theory.
 Certainly the adoption Of the Irish Eservation does not aid the trcaty's bances of success. Despite appeals prominent men and the known |ntiment of the country in favor of E passa ge,, with strict reservations, seems doomed. A last minute con- brsion of some senators to the ideal |hich prompted it is possible but high improba bic in view Of the deep keling which dominates those op- psed.
 If the United States were to become member of the League of Nations, |ith this reservation the expression of he Senate, embarrassing questions |ould undoubtedly arise in the event an attempt by another of the haller nations to obtain authority to E "ruIed by a government of it's own hoice." Applying the broad princi- le to all nations. there would seem nt one logical vote for our country cast.
 But it is probable the United States ill not become a member of the eague under the present treaty. Sem lors know gtN far better than outsid- -s. The Irish reservation therefore.

When a young American reaches the age of twenty-one and casts his first ballot he is apt to be a pretty wise guy He is inclined to be rather more cynical than circum- stances warrant. He has heard and read of the ulterior motives attributed their honesty of purpose as a rule. His citizenship just came, and he thinks paratively little of it.

Artificial Eyes in Demand.

One of the odd trades of Birming ham is that of artificial eye-making. says the London Daily Mail. It has never been more thriving than now. Some makers have three months work ahead. The war added to the de- mand, and there are thousands of ex- service men who can not possibly be supplied for q considerable time. The variety of artificial eyes is surprising. They differ in the size of the iris, shape and the color of the white" No two eyes are alike, and the artifi- ciaI eye has to match the remaining one, Q matter of nice judgment. For merly the Germans competed in the trade, but their "eyes" had many faults.
