imported radical element who are de-
srous of modelling this land of ours into
the chaos of destruction and suffering
that endure today in Russia.
Eleanor Glynn says in the Cosmopolitan,
"Chaos has reduced Russia to imminent
starvation and death. Chaos is destruction.
Order is construction" You can have no
order in strikes and walkouts. During a
period of three years there was an, average
of 5000 strikes and 100 lockouts a year.
During 1919 strikes cost employees eight
hundred million dollars and employers
more than billion three hundred million
dollars according to official reports. Is
this constructive policy for nation that
is supposed to be the most intelligent on
earth? How long can such pace be
kept up before the people are in the power
of a few great labor agitators and find
themselves where Russia is today?
But the people are waking up and we
see in the actions of the labor leaders who
this past week called OFT the intended
general strike on all railroads that they
too, have begun to realize that their days
are numbered. AS Lincoln said "You
can fool all of the people some of the
time, some of the people all of the time,
but you can't fool all of the people all of
the time" AS this country has produced
great men in the past to solve great prob
lens so it will no doubt produce man
shortly who will steer the ship of state
through dangerous crisis to safety, and
to deserved happiness, and contentment
for all of its people, but it will be through
the open door of the open shop.

tauqua Circle at their regular meeting,

CHEER UP

Remember this:
When Abraham Lincoln was young
man he ran for the Legislature in Illinois,
and was badly swamped.
He next entered business, failed, and
spent seventeen years of his life paying
up the debts of worthless partner.
He was in love with beautiful young
woman to whom he became engaged
then she died.
Later he married woman who was a
constant burden to him.
Entering politics again, he ran for Con-
gress again and was badly defeated.
He then tried to get an appointment to
the United States Land Office, but failed.
He became candidate for the United
States Senate, and was badly defeated.
In 1856 he became candidate for the
Vice-Presidency and was again defeated.
In 1883 he was defeated by Douglas.
One failure after another-bad failures
great setbacks. In the face of all this
he eventually became one of the country's
greatest men, if not the greatest.
When you think of series of setbacks like
this doesn't it make you feel kind of small
to become discouraged, because you think
you are having a hard time in life?-Ex.

The Monthly Record, published by the
inmates of the Connecticut State Prison, in
issue of Nov. 1st, 1921, refers to that num-
Der as Volume IS, Number 1, and then
goes on to state that the first number was
issued in October, 1879, and has been pub
lished continuously since then. There
must be discrepancy some where in their
statement, because, if that number marks
the 18th anniversary of the publication,
then the first issue must have been in
October, 1897. We take it for granted
that the discrepancy in the statement is
due to the transposition of the figures 7
and 9 and that the right date is 1897.
IF the Editor of the Monthly Record will
look at THE MIRROR he will see that our
publication is in its thirty-6fth year, our
first issue was printed on August 10th,
1887, so we ante-date the Monthly Record
by little more than ten years. We be-
lieve the Monthly Record will have to con-
cede the palm to THE MIRROR as being the
oldest continuous prison publication in the
United States. If there is an older one
we do not know of it.

THANKSGIVING DAY

We were the recipients of an unusual
treat on Thanksgiving Day, in the form
of concert rendered by the famous artists,
Thomas Egan and Mime. Lillian Breton,
assisted by Mr.. Becker, accompanist
The numerous encofes and the great
applause given them, bespoke the graft
tude of the audience in more enthusiastic
manner than mere words could possibly
do. We realize to the utmost the sacrifice
made, and the great kindness of Mr..
Regan and Nine. Breton in coming over
here and donating their services in order
that we might enjoy day of real Thanks
giving and on behalf of the inmates we
tender our sincere thanks to one and all
who assisted in giving US such a pleasant
day. Come again.
What's in a name? That is query
we often hear propounded. In Mr.. Egan's
case we should say great deal. His
Irish songs could not have been sung in
that inimitable Irish way unless he was
what his name indicates. But Mr.. Egan
seems to be paradoxical sort of being,
a man with dual personality, he sang
his Italian songs like an Italian. We
would suggest that he make a change in
his name to, say, Tomaso Regapo, and
then he would be in line to fill the place
left vacant by Caruso.
Zola Bohn, according to the records of
THE MIRROR appeared before us, the first
time in 1918 at the age of 6, Though some
of the inmates say she sang here as early
as 1916) and on every Thanksgiving Day
since, has thrilled the audience with her
singing and dancing. She was received
with unbounded enthusiasm and responded
in most gracious manner to the numerous
encores. Each year we have noticed
wonderful increase in sweetness, purity of
tone, range and volume of her voice. She
could be heard distinctly in the farther
most recesses of the auditorium. Her
dancing was classic-a poem of motion,
just what you would expect in such a
sweet pretty, dainty little bit of femininity.
We thank her for the pleasure bestowed
and hope that she will continue to radiate
happiness for many, many years to come.
AT the conclusion of the concert the in
mates repaired to the dining room where
the following holiday dinner was served:
CELERY
ROAST TURKEY SAGE DRSSING
CRANBERRY SAUCE
MASHED POTATOES GIBLET GRAVY
WHITE AND RAIsIN BREAD
