est organization in the world in the field of aiding the suffering in time oi unusual calamity, Its work has pro- gressed beyond these limits. but there Is n tendency now to limit that work to times of emergency for the Red Cross has all 1t can do to attend tt these emergencies, It has come to be the feeling that to be real American one must be a member of the great American Red Cross, Such is a proper fine feeling,
 Those who have had experience with the Salvation Army and with the dcrelicts 1t has reclaimed are sincere in their approval of 1t. It reaches peo- pie who would probably never be reached by any other means in just the way the Army touches them. '
 These things are mentioned today merely to emphasize two of the calls that will be made soon. that wise consideration of the just attitude to take may be had.

GOOD FOR pI.AINvILLE

Congratulations are due Plainville over the prospect of the increased prosperity that will come from the presence there of the unified Standard Steel and Bearings plant. A thousand more employees Of that company, liv- ing there, will "help some" Congrat- ulations, too, to the company for hay ing such place as Plainville to locate in. The company must have been pretty well satisfied with the pretty town to have been induced to abandon Philadelphia for it.
 In all seriousness every such move of course, is reason for satisfaction in this part of the country. It is q man ufacturing country and, despite its present high stand in the world, it will develop further. Movements such as the one just reported, while not of any tremendous significance indicate a continuance of the prosperity of this section and, as such indication, brings general satisfaction

GOOD "NuD-SLINGJNG"

It is quite orthodox to declare that this campaign as far as I am con- cerned, will be free from mud sling ing" The pronouncement, made with all the gusto of one who wishes to be praised for his fair -mindedness, is greeted with tremendous handclap- ping, usually by people who would Feat up" bit of gossip about some candidate to the opposite party.
 But how about it? If the people can't find out just what sort of men have been running things without some mud-slinging why not let the mud fly? Certainly they would like to have a change if the people who have been running things have been taking the bread out of their babies mouths Admitted that it is pretty degrading to take part in a campaign of throw ing charges about broadcast, and no one enjoys the prospect unless that person enjoys sordid details. Forum ately for a reputable newspaper 1t is obliged, owing to a sense of responsi- bility it feels, to refrain from spread ing rumors that are not backed up by

positive evidence, no matter how the eircumstantial evidence may convince the publishers Of that newspaper o' the truth of those rumors The "au- thority of print" Is dangerous weapon.
 But times are changing People are calling spades by their right names of spades" It is possible that the change will permeate the political at mosphere and clear 1t up. Perhaps, af- ter all, if the mud" which Is "slung' is real honest-to-goodness mud the time will come when singing It may bring about change for the better unpleasant and undignifed as the process may be. Certainly the people would prefer to have in ofnce men whose hands are soiled from the mud they have slung, than men whoses faces are unrecogniaable because Of the mud which covers them-mud which belongs there,

FAr1GuEITIs

You busy, tired men who come home from work in office or elsewhere and flop" you perpetually fatigued paragons-no longer do you have tc be ashamed that you are tired out You are not lazy; weariness is not g sign of old age. on the contrary fatigue is the badge of energy expend. ed too freely in worthy deeds.
 On the other hand you men who boast that you are hogs for work;' you who say you never get tired out hide your faces in shame. The hon. orable badge is not pinned upon your breasts that never pant.~
 All this because the president-elect of the Illinois State Medical College has declared that the tired business man is suffering from accumulation of fatigue material or toxin" disease which affects the hardworking, suc- cessful business man. The sloven he declares. the laggard, the phlesmatie and the weak willed are rarely affect ed
 And 50 let the pillows be prepared to greet the brave sufferer from this terrible malady that he may be com fortabe when he returns to his home, Let all people realize that he would not suffer so had he labored less.

CALLS FOR AID

The only way to meet fairly duties and responsibilities is to know, in ad- vance if possible, what those duties and responsibilities are. Every man and woman, in a position to do so, wants to help the unfortunate of the world. The calls for aid are so fre- quent that there has grown up the custom of setting aside certain days or certain weeks" in which good causes are emphasized. often these weeks" are prolonged because the de- sired help has not been forthcoming in the time fixed.
 A week from today, Armistice day, the Red Cross Roll Call for new and renewed membership begins. On the same day begins drive for s15,0o0 for the work of the Salvation Army in this city. This drive will continue a week. Last year the Saivation Army drive was not success. This year it was set for a certain date and post poned because the campaign to se- cure subscriptions for the new hotel interfered. These are two of the calls upon our generosity that will come.
 Generosity" is scarcely the word to use. Many feel that no generosity Is Involved in paying the one dollar and joining the Red Cross-the great

MAKING IDEALS CHEAP

There are few people who wih not grant the value of fine. ideals, splendid standards. Jt used to be the custom to write of them, discourse upon them and literally cram them down the throats of the helpless people, The fine ideals, splendid standards have survived not because of this habit but rather In spite of 1t. They have lived because of the inherent strength that is in them, not because of the per sistence of their opponents.
 As the moral" of a story used to be elaborated upon in the final chap ters. so all uplifting" addresses, and theseis used to be extremely explicit on the fine points made. Today no moral" is pointed out in tale. If the reader cannot get the moral, 1t Is lost. If the audience does not get the point of an address. the talk falls flat. Much is left to the imagination because those cherishing the fine ideals, the splendid standards are so jealous of them that they are un- willing to cheapen them by dressing them up in obvious expression He that hath ears to hear, let him hear
 We read and hear less of the fine things of life not because writers and thinkers deem them less worth em- phasizing. but rather because they fear to bring scorn upon those fine things by constant, tiresone reminder of them. The constantly recurring weeks" planned to emphasize cer- tain more or less worthy causes should not make people forget the real fund amentals of life which are not brought to notice by any special propaganda. At this time when-and it is said with hesitancy because this may be some special week" for something momen- tarily lysforgotten-no special week is being observed, it may not be amiss to suggest that we look about us and re- member those fine ideals, those splendid standards which make life so wonderful, but which are some times forgotten as they lie beneath the countless sheets of propaganda pub- lished to bring into the foreground some special cause which, possibly, some selfish interest wishes to have

COMMUNICATED.
From a Coal Buyer.

New Britain, Conn.,, Nov. |, 1922. The Editor:
 As a user of coal. taxpayer and cit- izen of New Britain desire to relieve my feelings on the coal situation by airing some of my views.
 One of our local coal dealers wrote long letter to your paper attempting to explain why the price had to be so high. How does he account for the fact that other dealers are selling lower not only in our neishboring cities but right here in New Britain It Is common gossip on the streets and in the factories that one of our local coal dealers left the meeting of the coal dealers with the fuel admin istrator with remark about not be- ing wanted there because he sold his coal too cheap.
 Coal is so cheap and so plentiful, comparatively, in our neighboring cities that some of our citizens are buying their coal out, of town and having it placed in their cellar after a haul of several miles at a price of $1e.00 per ton for nut coal. If by the mere writing of a letter 1@-could convince the people of New Britain that they should place in my pocket innumerable sums of $3.0o and s4.oo each would write at greater length and invent more plausible reason or excuses than did your coal dealing correspondent of few days ago. The only good reason that I can see for that lettersis the fact that they are getting $20.00 ton for coal and want to keep on getting it. 4 A
 It is interesting that in your Thurs day nights paper in the Plainyille news there is news item that the price in Plainville is $17.o0 and that there is plenty on hand. The same item calls attention to the fact that While the mayor and the fuel ad- of the city of New Britain are wrangling over the price of coal with the latter upholding those deal CTS who are demanding $20.00 a ton for the commodity and the former for a reduction in price, residents continue to i'll their bins at the moderate figure of s17.oo a ton"
 I for one am sorry that our mayor was so courteous in stopping the controversy over the, price of coal at the request of the fuel ad-I It is matter of great public interest and waited his re- ply eagerly.
 Since he has taken this stand consider it the duty of our fuel ad- to make the letter public 50 that we may all know every angle of the situation from men who have he facts and want to give them out honestly, and fearlessly and not be to reply. upon our local dealers for our information on the subject. Thanking you for your val table space, SF
 remain,
