 No general reference to the good feeling existing between the United States and Canada, as an example of the way neighboring states may live in peace without resort to a super power. may take from the sig nificance of the atmosphere of "get- ting together" of nations which has been in evidence in many of the acts of the present administration.
 Former President Wilson. of course. would not be satisfied with anything other than the League as he had conceived it. He never was: he is not the man to change. His illness intensifies. rather than dimin- ishes his stand in that regard But he must derive a csrtain satisfaction from the evidences shown so plain ly of late, that his idea is gaining strength. He believes. probably. that in time the plan he worked out and advocated will be the one adopted. Of this there Is considerable doubt. There is little doubt. however. that the plan he helped put into words that have been so much criticized, will be the basis of the peace union that will come.

WOMEN SHOULD KNOW.

Mayor Curtis is considering what women he will appoint to fill vacancies on boards now existing in the city gov- ernment.
 Immediately there arise questions of the most practical nature.
 Will 1t be left to the women selected to decide whether or not their other duties will permit of their acceptance: |: will tho appointments be made regard less of the question of whether or not not their home duties and privileges would prevent their performing the du- ties of a commissioner?
 Presumably such will be the case. Theoretically at least. no person pos sessing the appointive power. should be expected to look up the situation before appointing a woman to a post. Indeli- cate. tactless investigation would be the result.
 The matter must, therefore, be left to the women themselves to decide whether or not to accept.
 But women should be fully informed what the acceptance means: they should Know that meetings of boards are some- times held, often held. just before the hour of tho evening meal. Often they are held in the evening. They are held winter and summer. rain or shine. It is practically impossible to tell of how long duration they will be. Women should know what they are promising to do when they accept these appoint ments.
 Now that they have tho vote it is just that they have representation. Women have proven themselves com- potent advisers. Undoubtedly they will continue to do so, and will bring con- to the places they will fill.
 An expression of opinion from one prominent in the politics of the party other than that to which the Mayor is that women might scarcely care to accept appointments on boards such as the water. fire. public works boards. but that they would be of great assistance in the work of boards such as that of health. amusement and in other matters pertaining to public well fare. This is a subtle compliment to women.
 While recognizing fully the justice of representation. it would be we'll to consider the practical handicaps which will be theirs if they do full jus- tice to their work for the public and their work for their own.

To the Guilty Fisherman.

Its the same old story. over and | over again. That the innocent all ways suffer for the acts of the guil- 1 ty." ... Now that Shuttle Meadow has been 1 closed to lovers of fishing other places are being sought, and White Oak is among those chosen. ... =, .. .-.. D. News has been brought to the att tention of the writer of this article that there is always someone who will abuse a privilege and destroy that which does not belong to them, regardless of how much good or bad it will do themselves or others. As long as the fishermen behave themselves as a true sport should there seems very little probability of the fishing privilege being taken from them, but the writer understands that in the past two or three weeks. some irresponsible person or per- sons, has dug. holes in the dam, allowing the water to drain to a lower level. Others have committed nui- sances about the icehouse. These things will not be permitted by the leasers of the property. When some favorite hunting ground or lake, or shortcut is closed to all trespassing, we imm ediately condemn the party for the action, but when one stops to think of all the damage these good-for-nothing. irresponsible people do to: fences. shru ubbery, dams, trees and other un- believable nuisances, one cannot blame the owner.
 It is up to every lover of fishing to use some means to stop or in- f1uence those who do not know when they are we'll off. Each and every one of these irresponsible parties should be taught by some means most befitting them, that they are trespassing on property that is not theirs, and that they are only ac- corded that privilege so long as they do not destroy that which does not belong to them. ..
 Any person knowing of another committing these nuisances, should see to it that they use every means : to bring the guilty to justice, for it !! may mean that the man with his family or the boy out for few hours sport, will have no place to spend his hours of fishing recreation.
 So let the guilty ones take heed they know who they are themselves We all know to what class they be- long and here's to every wish that the future will still have place where one can spend a few hours al one of the best sports in the world fishing.

Editor Herald:
 As YOU gave notice in last evening s Herald of another hearing on the Jitney-Trolley controversy to be held Monday next, a. m., it has occurred to me that there were some phases of the situation that were not brought out at the previous hearing Cat least while I remained).
 A once eminent president of the U. $. remarked that we were confront ed by a condition not theory. Now then some 16 years ago l bought the place in which I now reside con- taining some 10 acres of land and an old but comfortable house. l bought the place partly for a home for my family and partly on specu- lation on advice of others that the land being we'll located in relation to the city and several good build ing lots available there would soon be a demand for the same, and will here state that my taxes at that time were SIS per year and have now reached $100. Notwithstanding the fact that soon after made the purchase I disposed of one-haf of the land at a nominal figure which felt obliged to do to lessen my mort gage.
 Now to the point. I have held the balance of this land staked off into building lots of good size, some of them 70 foot front by 200 feet deep and with no prettier or more health full surroundings and held them at reasonable figure. Held them. bear in mind, for 16 years and sold only one lot which is being built upon at present.
 Now whv Because the people would pass it up and go still further out of the city to build because they could get transportation to a little nearer their door than to my place and I am only 10 minutes walk from the trolley. But that 10 minutes seems to make considerable differ .ence to people seeking a home site. (Witness Barnesdale). However, since the esta blishment of a dependable jitney service here, the rents are all taken and enquir- ies are being made for building lots largely owing to the jitney service and no doubt but for the general business depression and with the jit- neys let alone building would begin in this section.
 But no, we are asked to annihilate progress to maintain the trolley sys- tenn and its $1S,00o "a year president who whether responsible or not the trolley company has, according to re- ports, become an incubus on its own hands, is no ones fault but its own. Since it's inception the writer has been a patron of the West Main street line and for years the west bound cars at certain hours of the day (until recently I do not know how they are) have been so overHowded even to standing room day in Nnd day out, year in and year out, aSf apparently no effort made to renefN it and so I might go on and yet tn" powers that be would drive the jitney from the street to gratify the wants of the few as against the needs of the many. And to conclude, will say it seems reasonable that the people of New Britain are perfectly capable of choosing their method of trans portation, providing, of course, that the carrier of their choice is amena- ble to all traffic regulations and of good character and bonded in suffi- cient sum to protect his passengers against loss by accident.
