AGAINST FRIGHrFU1Nnss.

Whether the fight that is now being
made for an agreement among nations
concerning the use OF submarines in case
OF war will De any more successful than
the attempt to limit the submarine ton
mage must await developments but it is
an effort that deserves to win.
During all the period of frightfulness
that was caused by Germany's use of its
underwater boats il was the total disre-
gard for the rules Of war and the unjus-
tiled methods used against merchant
vessels that caused the entire world to
cry out against it. 1t is only natural
that there should be an earnest endea-
vor made to make such conditions i'm
possible in the future, and that is what
is being attempted through the Root res
olutions.
Laws already exist but the same laws
have been broken right and left. Wheth-
eT ii would be possible to get any greater
respect for them through an additional
promise to abide by them is of course
uncertain. 1t doesn't seem possible that
here would be another Germany but
when It comes to war there is no telling
what those in desperate straits will do
Thus limitation, both as to number ant
size, of submarines would arDear to be
the desirable thing, but failing to gel
hat an agreement concerning the use
Of submarins in case of war must b
REGARDED as the next best.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Mr.. Editor: The communication in
Wednesdays Bulletin signed Church
Member would certainly remain unan-
swered were it not that its miscellaneous
of fact might lead to the formation of
an entirely false impression IN the minds
of your many readers.
In the first place, the meeting hall re-
ferred to is the town hall OF Bozrah,
which is not the exclusive property of
the Congregational church, albeit the
church uses a portion Of the building
for its services. Accordingly, the Church
Member is not warranted in her indisna-
ton at the alleged misuse Of church
property including wood and lights, rs.
members of the community and with per-
mission; the Council of Jewish Women
are as equally entitled TO the privileges of
the building as are the members Of other
faiths and It i'll becomes member OF
the tolerant Congregational church to ex-
hfbit the obviously narrow spirit dis
PLAYED by your correspondent.
There is no denial ATTEMPTED OF the ma
ture of the welfare work done by the
council RICH. along, but the excitement
rises to mountain height when the
younger element endeavers to seek some
in1iecent recreation Of the kind to which
all young peonle are normally entitled.
Even young folks OF the congregational
church have been known to participate in
a dance, as witness the numerous affairs
of this kind throughout the land
As matter of fact, the Council Of
Jewish Women did not hold public
dance, but Simply the members and their
children assembled to observe the first
anniversary Of their organization. I am
; 2 fairly long resident in Bezrah so that
7 am cognizant OF what goes on, and
nowhere have I heard any complaints
that the music and dancing were an in
! suit ga daring insult" to the church and
community as Indignantly stated by
your CORRESPONDENT.
| Our Jewish young people would as soon
think of doing ANYTHING to violate the
sensibility Of our Christian neighbors as
| they would to infringe the dictates OF
! the Jewish faith. but no one regards
q dance, especially a private dance, as
an open violation Of others rights unless
| the affair is conducted in an annoying
manner. That certainly was not the case
in this instance.
/ In conclusion I wish to add, that the
! final sentence of the letter referred I'd
clearly indicates the anirnus of the writ
er. whose spleen is plainly directed
against particular person and that per-
son myself r

HnLInAY MAu

Not irfrequentiy is the business done
by the postoffice regarded as a barome-
ter Of conditions. II is believed that it
indicates to greater or less degree
whether business is good or bad or sta
tionary, according to the amount Of mali
and money handled
Such being the case much encourage
ment is offered by the setimate to the Eff
feet that the post office department ham
died fully 80 per cent. more mail mat
ter during the Christmas season than it
did a year ago. 1t is well known that
conditions now are much improved over
what they we're a number Of months
ago, that there is a decrease Of unein-
ployment and that manufacturing plants
are showing encouraging activity. Thus
the business done through the postoface
must be regarded as rejecting general
conditions.
Handling the holiday mail always
means big job for the post office depart
ment and it has been greatly Increased
by the great number who are making use
of the parcel post. This is evident under
normal conditions but it multiplies rap
idly when the Christmas business strikes
on and piles up in such quantity as te
almost swamp the force of regulars and
extras.
1t is only natural that the individual,
should stop and wonder that the service
at such times is as good as It is. Posta
efficiency isn-s what 1t, used to be, al
though it is to be hoped that it is getting
back. Keeping things moving under thu
rush of Christmas business has IT'S diff.
culties Such delays in transmission az
result for a few days may hold up pa.
pers and magazines but the wonder !;
that it RECEIVERS as quickly as it does.
Meeting Christmas postal conditions /,
by no means an easy task. Those on tht
outside are in no position to be offering
adviee but 1t cannot fail to impress eacf
ard every one that there would be de
cfled Improvement and relief if there

BOOTLEG POISON.

Revelations which come from New
York in connection with the selling of
w0Di alcohol for beverage purposes dis
close conditions which prevailed in the
Connecticut valley soon after prohibition
went into effect. That same eagerness
to get liquor regardless Of the fact that
traffic in it is known to be against the
law Of the land and that what they are
huving is liable to be poison has now re-
suited in eleven deaths and there is no
telling what the number will be before
he consumption of the deadly stuff is
stopped.
That the health authorities should is
sue warning against the use Of doubtful
liquor is natural 1t is not to be sup
posed that those who drank and have
5ied would have done so had they known
RE character Of the liquor they we're
drinking. II is not to be supposed that
they were willing to take chances with
anything for the sake Of a drink. al
though there are times when such would
seem to be the case from the stuff that
Is neddled about at high prices.
The alarming situation is created
chiefly by the fact that there are those
who are ready TO engage in such a bus
mess. and the Impression that has been
gained through a lack OF enforcement Of
he prohibition law that liquor can be
obtained in many places provided the
price can be dug UP. 1t Is to be realized
that those who sell liquor which does not
contain wood alcohol are violators of the
prohibition law quite the same as any
others but those who engage In the dis
.ributiou of quick poison as a beverage
are deserving Of most anything but le-
niency.
Those who do not use liquor and those
who refuse to pay the prices demanded
are not in danger Of quick death from
wood alcohol poisoning. Those who be
leve that the law can be disregardet
vith irnpunity and who are ready to buy
Hnything offered have good reason ia
heed the warning that is offered. Re
pentance after indulgence is apt to b,
loo late. In the meantime there Is worf

who are responsible for the connection
and those who are engaged in distrHbut

There is more to the analysis of char

You can also decide quite easily
whether person is what the world calls

ned How?
Well, first of all, you must be reason
ably sure that the clothing by which you
are judging is the free selection Of the
Individual You would not, for instance,
judge a little girl by the clothing her
mother puts on her. but rather judge the
mother You would not judge a police
man Or a service man by his uniform,
which Is prescribed. Nor would you
Judge any person by special clothes dom

would Judge them by their free selection,
within the range OF their pockets. of their
