SPIRIT OF BRoTHERLY
LOVE DOMINATES IN
HEARTS OF ALL ELkS
Victor Hugo tells the story of Jean
Vatican. This former convict and
outcast from the faces Of men, re-
jected Of the jailors, driven from
the kennels of dogs, knocked one
night at the door of the good cure for
food and rest. The door is opened,
the candles are lighted, the table
spread and Jean Vatican receives the
welcome of son, rather than that of
an outcast. In establishment, he
says to the cure: Il do not under
stand; you take me in and you do
not even know my name"
This house, said the cure. sis
Gods house. I,knew your name be-
fore you spoke; your name is my
brother" 'H'. f
1t is the spirit Of brotherly love
that binds together the hearts of
the Elks,. and as the neophyte knocks
for admission, the hand of welcome
is extended and a voice of good will
says: "Your name is my brother"
Elk charity says, BE kind to your
fellows, envy not your successful
neighbor; boast not of your deeds;
think no evil of others. Be glad in
the truth. Let no barriers of wealth
or poverty, of politics or religion, in
terfere with your duties to your fell
Iow-men."

The average person is r~Nsperous. but the average person is not thrifty. Wa see the signs of prosperity in the mum Der of silk stockings and other ex- pensive articles purchased by many of the women who work for a living and many men endeavor to show that they are prosperous by wearing high priced clothing which in many cases indi- cates extravaganza. The working peo- pie everywhere need to be reasonable in their expenditures. and they cer- tainly need to save while the saving is possible. If every person in Ameri- ca saved the small sum of $1 a week, the total savings in a single year would reach $, ,O00, 900 900.

WICKED AND RIGHTEOUS
 TROD IN SLIPPERY PLACES

Wicked or righteous you walked in slippery places in Norwich Friday night if you walked at all. And 1t made no difference whether yoa tray eled aristocratic Broadway. or plebeian High street. There was nothing to choose in the peril to broken arms and legs or cracked craniums.
 Everything was glare ice polished to the utmost degree of treacherous- ness by rain that began to fall in the early evening and gained through the night. Sloping and hillside Streets sent the cautious pedestrian to the middle of the road for safety, but by the time the first travellers get out this (Saturday) morning the rain and mild weather will probably have largely cleared off the walks, so that providence can be thanked for remov- ing the liability for lawsuits against the city because of broken bones from falls today
 So far as known nobody broke an arm or leg Friday night.
