Light tasks, says the journal of the
A. M. A., such as sewing. crocheting
or embroidering, call for an average
expenditure Of about nine calories an
hour more than that of the same per-
son sitting quietly in a chair. Tasks
regarded as "harder work" than sew
ing, such as washing, sweeping or
scrubbing, require an increment Of at
least fifty calOries an hour. Govern
ment experiments have shown how the
mere change in the height Of the table
at which work is being done may
cause an increase Of from 20 to 40 per
cent In the calories required. This
illustrates, to quote the report, the i'm.
portance Of choosing equipment to "ht"
the worker.

ROOSEVELT COMING.

New Britain worked yesterday. is working today and will be working when the rest of the country is idle" city: its truth appears to all who live here but a short time.
 Perhaps this Is not the reason for the coming of Franklin D. Roosevelt, dent, but he or his party managers must have some inkling of the fact. Mir. Roosevelt will speak here Friday afternoon, and New Britain will wei come him with that open mind which should characterize every man while this campaign Is in progress.
 New Britain is typical of working America. It possesses trimmings of artistic beauty rarely associated with a manufacturing city. Its inhabi- tants include some of the most cul- tured people of New England. AL though it's population is made up of many foreigners they do not take away from the city it's truly Ameri- can chara"terlstic.
 , In Mir. Roosevelt the people will hear a true American of distinguished lineage. It will hear a man of edu- cation and culture who has stepped from behind a screen of a certain amount of obscurity in a public off, fec where he has been efficient, into the limelight. He seems to have throwr aside his natural tendency toward conservatism. and has given utterance to many progressive ideas. following the lead. quite properly. of the head of the ticket of the party of which he is a member-a lead criticised by many. but one which certainly has given food for thought. and which has given hope to many. Tn addition the activity of Cox and Roosevelt has brought their oppo- nents from their preferred shell. and has inspired like manner of speech from them.
 New Britain will be glad indeed to welcome Roosevelt: will give him a fair hearing. and will learn. So would New Britain welcome speakers of prominence of the Republican party. And after hearing all sides it is be- lieved New Britain will go or work ing and will vote as its people be- leve wise in the view of the spirit of industry that predominates in this city.

TEACHERS IN POLITICS.

New Britain school teachers are said to have arranged the plank in the republican party platform affect ing the matter of the raising of teach CTS salaries.
 The need of more pay for teachers had been pointed out in these columns many times. The teachers have waged a necessary war. Ii is to be hoped that they will receive more equitable pay than in the past.
 The point here to be noted is that they have thus, in looking after their own interests. made a new departure in politics which should be followed up. They should not limit their work in this direction to matters affecting themselves. It should be extended. through study and activity. into na- tional politics.
 Much has been said of this cam- paign in regard to the importance of study. But once more the liberty is taken of advising and urging the need of such study of national mat ters and the attitude of the candi- dates respecting them. Let the teach

CTS. essentially able to analyze and find the weak and strong points in .he platforms in teachings of each great party. spend time in carefully scrut- inizing everything pertaining to the government of this country for the next four years.
 Nor should this be done in a parti- san spirit. If a teacher has learned the Roman method of pronouncing Latin. for instance, and finds himself or her. seD~in a school where the English method may be used, the teachers is bound to study out the better method
 A teacher does not instruct in poli- tics: but a teacher should be we'll fortified to reply intelligently to ques- tions concerning matters of national interest. Moreover the active interest of we'll educated persons. as teachers are presumed to be, cannot but add to the welfare of the country. They have made a beginning. They should not give the Republicans alone the help of their expert knowledge, but should allow the Democratic platform makers to have the benefit of it.
 And it would be we'll for both parties to consider the wisdom of making the teachers cause theirs

"JBST RUMINATTN'."
(Robert Russell.)

Afore the summer fades away: afore the light goes out from that brigh. sun O golden gleams that poets write about, my ruminatin' pipe must give itself to jest one day O dreamin' old-time dreams-an' so here goes, let come what may. Through grayi5h clouds all tinged with pearl an sunlight filt'rin through it sees the wide horizon an the everlastin' blue the canopy O heaven that intensifies the right-that holds the sunlight to the earth-that softens comin' night. Against that dim horizon vision sees them forms O grace-the trees. the grass. the violets adornin' natures face. An in each tree an blade O grass there lies a
 beatin' heart, inssympathy with which we ought to live the human part. An so our words. our thoughts, our acts are strong. upstandin', true: not always are we thinkin' of our selves, but, friends, of you. Be- heath those warmin' sunlight rays all harshness disappears, an in those fadin' clouds O. smoke misunderstandin' clears. There gentleness an strength abide which puts all wrong to rout afore the summer fades away-afore the light goes out.
