A party of IS motored to the Fisher mans Retreat on the banks of Pachaus pond owned by William Christopher, where one Of the most appetizinG lunch cons, with nothing left out on the menu, was served. Mir. Benjamin of Norwich attached a motor 10 Mir. Christopher's rowboat and gave all the party a ride by motor power. Aunt Jane was the most courageous of the women and Genial Jim the most timid of the men who participated in this particular fea- ture. So pleased were the members of the party with their days outing that another is already being planned.

PUTNAM

At 2 hearing before Probate Judge David Flagg Monday morning, Patrick M. ODwyer was appointed conserva- tor of Mrs. Margaret o'Leary, who re- gently sold to Remi Delage, what is known as tho O'Leary building on Main street, next to the court house block.
 MT. o'Dwyer, who is a cousin of Mrs. OLeary, was represented by Attorney J. F. Carpenter as counsel. Principal witnesses at the hearing were Mir. O. Dwyer, whose home is in Webster, Jo- sephine Marnane, 8 resident of this city, and Mrs. John OLeary Of New York.
 It was stated after the hearing, at which Mrs. OLesry did not appear, that the proceedings were entirely amic- able and that Mrs. OLeary had made known no objection to the appointment of a conservator.
 Following the hearing and the ap- pointment of a conservator there seemed to be an impression about the city that action may follow through which an effort may be made to have set aside the transaction under which Mrs. O. Leary, who is about 58 years of age, re- gently disposed of to MT Delarse the O'Leary building, which occupies q fire location between the Congregational church property and the court house block property, in the heart of the bus mess section. The sale of the prop crty came as a surprise. A record of the transaction was made last Monday at the office of the town clerk. Almost immediately thereafter, two sisters of Mrs. O'Leary, Sisters Gather 1 inc and Peronica members of the Sis ] ters of Mercy community at Hartford ! came here and it was later stated tha, 1 their visit had to do with the real es- 1 tate transaction, which they felt should not have taken place. Attorney Carpen- i Interest of the relatives and an appiica. 1 tion was made for the appointment of . 1 conservator.
 1 It has since developed that Mrs
 o'Leary has arranged to sell the prop ] erty in question three times within tho past few months. On two occasion.
 she barsained to sell it for s14.OOO. bu l these sales never were consummated. l Mrs. O'Leary is the widow of P. J 1 O'Leary. at one time postmaster in Put

 for years was engaged in the grocery
 business in the building that now figure: 1 So prominently in the matte" of the ap pointment of a 1conservator.

Goms tms between AsO Saturday af- te-noou and the reopenlng of Dr. J. L. God6urn's office at s.30 Monday morning burglars entered the place and stole gold dental instruments, plates. war savings Etamps and other valuables to the amount of $500 or $500. it was reported tn Chief John Mcfarland by pr, Godburu soon after he opened his office for busi- ness Monday morning.
 Tho break is one of mystery. The of- flee door is held fast by Yale lock, vhich had not been forced, and there was nothing about the office when Dr. God burn entered Monday morning to ipdicate how the thieves gained entrance. A pos sibility is that entrance was gained by coming up a fire escape and through a window that was found partly open Mon day morning, but there were no traces Of the fire escape having been used or the window opened more than tho two or three inches showing when tho break was discovered.
 A new set Of dental instruments. g number of forcens and s5o0 worth of war ssvings stamps is included in the loot taken from the oGlcs Dr. Godburn's loss Is partly covered by insurance.
 Dr. Godburn recalled Monday that on Wednesday Of last week a young man Netii1 " 'Aie oiitNS Ao HaFS loOth cA- tracted. His actions were more or less suspicious and Dr. Godburn now recalls that his patient took occasion to como and peer into the laboratory while the doctor was engaged there for a few min. utcs. The strangers actions seemed SC peculiar at tho time that Dr. Godburr reported the matter tO the police and since that time a watch has been kcpl on the old WIndham County Savings banl building, where pr. Godburn's offices art located.
 There is no means of determining jus when the robbery took place. as Dr. God burn was not iH his office from Saturday afternoon until Monday morning.

OUR REAL TASK.

ISN'T IT time that we begin to give as much at
tention to the boys and girls do to the
blooded stock?
The stock is petted and pampered, but most of
the boys and girls are allowed to run wild, and
grow up like weeds in the field.
We may brag about our crops of corn, our herds
Of cattle, our droves of hogs, but the best crop
that we produce in these United States Of Amer
lea consists of boys and girls-the future rulers
Of our country.
Juvenile crime is on. the increase. The old
fashioned home, where the whole family gathered
for pleasurable evenings, is becoming scarce. The
relationship between father and son, mother and
daughter, is not as it used to be. We demand
more hectic amusements than did our forefathers.
Life has come to be merry go-round, with lots
Of Jazz music and fashion that would shame a
Hottentot. Luxury, and more luxury, is the de-
mand of the hour America must beat back to
the old simple ways of living if her power is not
to be sapped and the Republic eventually destroy
ed by itself Remember what happened to Rome

We have been hearing much during the past
few weeks concerning the probable reduction Of
acreage this year. The Merchants National Bank Of
st. Paul, in its bulletin very recently published,
shows by reports from banker in each county
that there will be no such decrease save in very
few counties. In most the acreage will be
normal and the decreased wheat acreage will be
planted to other crops. This is what might
expect. The American farmer is too much of a
sportsman to lay down on the job because of one
off year. He knows the period Of depression and
readjustment is bound to end-and he will be pre-
pared for the other end of it. Occasionally we
hear man with an ingrown crouch insist that he
is going to let his land lie idle until labor prices
and product prices right themselves. 1t is unfor-
tunate that local reports are so often based on
the words of these men instead Of on the actions
of the men who refuse to be downed by the first
adverse condition.

The biggest newspaper joke in several years is
the fact that the metropolitan dailies are getting
all "het up" over the moving picture producers
having made contract with Clara Smith Hamon.
For weeks the news of Claras gongs and COM
ings and doings particularly the last) have been
given precedence over everything else in the news
world. Her headlines have been little more
snowy, little more glazing and little more
daring than those over any other news. Now
she has ceased to be an asset to the sensational
news mongers and they Immediately raise great
hue and cry over the film makers taking her up.
What, we would like to ask these newspaper pro-
ducers, has made this woman valuable CD ac-
QUESTION to movie people save the newspaper pub
licity she has received? Had every daily
paper kept quiet about this woman both before
and during her trial she would have sunk into
that oblivion which would have been her best be-
quest to the world. But if every item of her life
was worthy of being reived in newspaper stories,
it is quite as worthy of being portrayed on the
screen. The newspaper people claim they had to
give this story in all its hdeousness because the
people demanded it. We see no reason why the
same reason does not defend the action of the film
producers And after all it harks back to what the
general public wants-and that makes the re-
sponsbility an individual one for each Of us. Pa
pers and pictures are produced for commercial
purposes-and the public must decide what it
shall demand Of these its servants. But little
more consistency on the part Of editors would pos
sibly assist the public IN making this decision.

There is considerable speculation in st.
Paul as to what Larry Ho will do when he
steps out Of the mayors office. Some time
ago there was rumor to the effect that he
contemplated the establishment of a new
daily paper at Mankato, and later it was re-
ported that he might go east as special writer
for an agricultural magazine of national cir
culation Larry is clever and versatile, and
undoubtedly there will be many attractive
fields open to him. On the Chautauqua plat
form, he would be a p-notcher.-Dawson

CARDINAL GIBBONS.
TT HE DEATH, Thursday, March "a, of
James, Cardinal Gibbons, archbishop of Bal

IT HE DEATH, on Thursday, March "a, Of
James, Cardinal Gibbons, archbishop of Bal
q timore, Primate Of the American Catholic
Hierarchy, removes from the scenes of the Catho-
lie Church Of America one of it's most beloved ser
wants and outstanding world figure. He will
be missed in the counsels Of his church, primar-
ly but also in the affairs of the nation for while
the church, which he dearly loved, was his first
concern he was true American, during the World
War, with tongue and pen, he stood unflinching-
~ for the cause Of the Allies, his influence going
to the remotestpparts of the earth.
One of the outstanding characteristics of the
Great Cardinal was his youthful spirit and love
for the young people, which he maintained to the
end. Only last month he consented to an inter-
view by Bruce Barton, for the American Maya
zine, in which he confined his efforts to message
to the young, knowing that he would not be able,
in all probability, to use opportunity like that
again. It was the outpouring of a great heart and
should be read by all, old and young, with great
profit, if needed.

LANsING's CRITICISM TOO LATE.

IT. HERE are great many people who will
agree with Frank H. Simonds that as a
document of decisive political value, Mr..
Lansing's book comes too late. If at any moment
during the Paris conference he had broken away
from President Wilson and, with that lack of pas
sion and extreme sobriety of phrase which are his,
had told the American people what he knew about
the Paris proposals, he would have rendered
public service beyond measure and earned for
himself place which would be far different from
that which he must now occupy. Not able to be-
lieve in Mr. Wilson's miracle, he was still willing
to seem to believe in it, and this must always be
valid and enduring criticism.
Exactly in the same way, had he chosen at any
moment after the American discussion began, to
set forth those views which he held with an inten-
sity which he wells but does not conceal his test-
mony would have totally changed the whole face
of the controversy in and out of the United States
senate. But Mr.. Lansing had an idea of loyalty
to person, he thought of himself rather as a
member of an administration than as citizen of
a nation, he could be Casibianca during all of the
critical period, when the lives of the crew and the
safety of the ship were at stake; and for this he
must now pay the price.
Mr. Lansing's book is confession, a confession
of impotence at the moment of real crisis. He saw
the truth shrewdly and clearly, he recognized the
sham and mistakes Despite his own declaration,
Bullitt did not much misrepresent him or largely
exaggerate the views held by many Of his assoc-
ates. There is something rather fine in the sense
of loyalty to chief which survives the personal
affronts Mr.. Lansing had to endure, but there is
nevertheless something which rather staggers the
mind in the passivty with which Mr.. Lansing set
his name to document whose character he now
describes as he then regarded it.-Mankato Free
Press.
