REFORMING PERFORMERS.

The world will be startled today by the information that the head of the Anti-Cigarette league has severed her connection with the gentle body.
 It is not reported what said head of the league has to announce on the subject. but the league allows it 70 be understood that it (the 1eague) contented itself at present with spread ing semi-scientific information con- corning the evils of smoking cigar cites, and of allowing the young to acquire the habit.
 The resigned head of the league, it is said, was eager to adopt more for cible methods. She would stop cigar cite smoking as she would put out a fire. She insisted on promoting pro- hibitory methods which the board did not like. It seemed advisa bIe, says the league, that the word of the or ganization go forward unhampered by individual influence and leave the former head of the league free to carry out HSr ulOIe uIdSClC ana pro- hibitory methods.
 Now We are really worried. If the reformers are trying to reform their own, such as the former head of the | league-trying to make them more l scientific and less fantastic-there is danger to the cigarette. A movement which would pledge it's members to
 go rushing about the streets, seizins cigarettes from every mouth they decorated, would not intimately harm the little thing of tobacco and pape1 in the least
 But if other reformers are to tel lsuch energetic persons to go away and not trouble them in their desir,
 to tell the boys and girls and thei
 mothers and fathers how harmful
 thing is, the latter group will seen quite ike ordinary people with firn lconviction-and they will be listened Ito. And that would be awful for tn
 poor cigarette which we are inclined
 to feel sis not so deadly, if used il
 moderation, as it is painted.

A GREAT MANS WAY.

A modest appearing man sat in the outer office at the American Elm bassy in Paris yesterday waiting to see Myron T. Herrick, the Ambassa- dor. He had merely sent in his card.
 Suddenly a secretary appeared and, with all haste and some embarrass- ment, ushered him into the presence of Ambassador Herrick.
 'I wanted to come and tell you definitely" said the visitor, that I am going to Amer1ca. I also wanted to tell you directly, by word of mouth instead of by letter or in any formal way, how deeply touched I have been . by the echoes from America of my projected visit. I wanted to tell you how delighted I am that I am going. The visit of the American Legion has brought me in closer touch with Am erica than I have been since the Am- erican Army was here, and I appre- ciate deeply the desire of the Amer ican Legion that I go to, their con- vention in Kansas City"
 These were the words of Marshal Foch yesterday. This was the man. ner of his calling upon and addressing the United States Ambassador. Thus spoke the man whC led the Allied armies to victory--whose assumption of general charge of all the armies was coincident with the turning of the tide of the war.
 There have been glorious spec tacles in this country when a dis tinguished visitor comes to us; we have made much of many men and women from foreign shores.
 But the arrival of this great mar who did not consider himself of SC great importance that he should dis pense with the formalities attendan upon seeing the Ambassador from th United States--the man who wanted to speak and not to write, to express Himself informally to the representa- tive of tn United States-his arriva st the shores of this country and hi

have occasion to the Big City, to- day.
 Writing to his family in Salem, Mass, on May 19, 1856, Choate made observation as follows: Nothing surprises me more in New York than to see how the city is being con- stantly rebuilt, even in those parts
 where it's magnificence seems almost complete already. All up and down both sides of Broadway, a great
 many buildings which were them selves quite respectable, are being de- | molished, and every day some other one begins to disappear, and if all the changes there which have been con- templated and commenced are com pleted during the season, they will l make quite a street of it before next winter"
 Indeed, the youthful Joseph proved i to be a prophet. They" have made
 quite a street of it, far surpassing 1 the most fertile imaginations of that period.
 And now we come to a subject on
 which all men delight to dwell. Even since Adam drowned upon Eyes
 monthly bill from the Eden Depart
 ment Store, men have taken pleasure l in discussing woman's dress. Choate was not immune to the fever, and writing to his sister Carrie on Feb
 ruary 2S, 1858, he remarked: 'I
 write this letter to you because l have a very important announce
 ment to make, which will doubtless be of becoming interest to you, and
 that is, that a lady of distinguished
 position in society here. a leader of
 the fashion,, arrived here last week from Paris without hoops. It is be- 1ieved that this marks the beginning l of the decline of the present fashion,
 and that very soon those inflated l locom olives which have hitherto
 passed in our streets, for ladies. will
 be remembered among the things
 that were. By and by, perhaps, | thirty-six yards will make two

 Have scarlet petticoats yet been in
 troduced in New England? I as
 sure you that in these muddy sea- sons when the outmost skirts are lifted out of danger. they present a l unique and brilliant spectacle 1 If some of the locomotives to whom Choate refers could walk down Broadway or Fifth avenue, or Main street in any New England village today, they would no doubt wonder if, by chance, they had not
 come to the wrong planet.

 his mother as raging Hike a hurri- cane or devouring fire" and sweep

THE OBSERVER
MAKES
MAKES RANDOM OBSERVATIONS
- ON
THE CITY AND ITS PEOPLE.

Among the many interesting vol umes found on the shelves at the New Britain Institute Library is the life of Joseph Hodges Choate, former ambassador to the Court of St. James from the United States.
 While strolling along fascinating pathways between the covers, the writer was struck by the similarity of conditions existing when Choate was young man and the present day. Unless the reader was mind full of dates he could almost imagine that the biography was descriptive of 1921 thus bringing to attention the fact that times may change but men never change.
 As an example, might be cited an experience Choate had at Harvard college which has quite a modern smack to it. He relates that "one hot summer night, near the close, at the term, in early June, I was walk ing with my friend and classmate David Cheever, afterwards the cele- brated surgeon in Boston, and we | got out on the turnpike to a sign | that said Cam mbridge two miles and l one-half: Concord twelve miles and one-half; and in a rash moment | you to walk to Concord.' All right,
 he relied, and as it was my challenge I could not very well back out, and
 we walked on. We got up to Con-
 cord, having lost our way in going
 through Lexington, some time after
 midnight, I could not say when, and l being slightly fatigued we stopped
 at the hotel and asked for a glass of
 whiskey or brandy, but it was in
 the days of the Maine law, and the | landlord said that it was an ab- 1 solIte impOssibility; however, we
 pressed our claim and told him that
 We had got to get back to the col | lege for morning prayers at o'clock He finally yielded and said, Come we me- and gave US a delightful thrill of how the Maine law was eXecuted | He led us through a labyrinth of | cellars, up against what appeared to | be a blank wall, out he touched q spring and a door opened and in side was found Iarrel with a board across it, a pitcher of water a bowl ! of sugar and bottles of whiskey and | brandy, and we to ok a very refresh ing drink"
 l It is apparent from the foregoing that the thirsty of Choate's day had as little real difficulty assuag1ng their appetites as those of the pres ent generation. In other words,
 prohibition failed to prohibit just as effectually as it fails to prohibit to- day.
 It is related that a country visitor
 in New York, upon being asked how he liked the city, answered: f'It ought to be a durned fine town when they get it finished." In Choate's memories we ind astonishment at the constant evolution which is talk 1 ing place in New York and which continues to surprise those of us who

THE LAW OF THE AIR.

There is legal precedent and mary statutes and ordinances which regu- late transportation on the surface of the earth, although there is still doubt enough about it to be the cause of some litigation.
 There remains the question just how far may congress, a state or a city or town go in regulation traffic in the air. It would seem that there would be no more difficulty in this matter than in the other. But there are various matters to be touched and regulated in air transportation that are not touched by the matter of traffic regulation on the roads which cover the earth.
 By the constitution it seems that congress is not given this power. It was not within the conception of the framers of the constitution that there would ever by any reason to grant any right to congress to med dle in matters above the surface of the earth. Only recently has there been recognized the necessity of so doing. But it is recognized today.
 If the matter of regulation of transportation through the air is taken up by congress the American Bar associations special committee recommend that, before any laws be drawn, the greatest study should be given to their constitutionalty, in order that it may be seen whether or not constitutional amendment is required to give complete jurisdfc- tion over aeronautics upon the United States through its proper depart ments, instead of trying to adopt methods of questionable constitu- tionality to make existing national powers apply to aeronautics.
 It should be and is recognized that air transportation is in it's infancy. Any narrow, detailed constitutional amendment would therefore, become worthless in a few years. If con gress is to be granted power to regu late aeronautics, the amendment whereby such power is conferred must be broad in it's scope, leaving to congress the duty of applying that as it is needed.
 We have grown to dread further constitutional amendments.
 But never should there be feared or questioned the wisdom of al amendment that must take care o. the matters brought about by man: progress.
 This constitutional amendmen would be one such, and it would b. far better to have such a one, tha to try to keep up our progress il matters of the air, without a knowl edge of just what the law will sa to our efforts.
