SUPPORTING THE TRoLLEYs.

A strong plea has been made by the residents of East Lyme against the dis continuance of inc trolley service over a certain portion of the line running to Flanders in that town. This is part of a system that has suffered severely from decreased patronage and the req son given for the desire of the com rauy to now reduce the mileage on that line is that it has been operated at a loss oyer considerable period and must contlnun to do so unless it is per- mitted to take up that section of track.
 Trolley service is depended upon by tho public for reaching outlying com muniLes. It is cheap method of transportation and the service is ire quent. It is fortunate that the trolley companies have been able to so reduce operating expenses that it has been pos s.ble to maintain service on many of thc lines where t has been difficult to meet expenses. but it is deplorable when service is maintained where patronage $ not sufficient to keep the company rom going steadily in the hole. That seems to he the situation on this East Lyme road where the company desires ts dtssoati''uc so"lice. It is willing tc maintain operatlons even when it does no bette. tan make ends meet but not much criticism can be directed at 2 company which has been steadily run, ming behind and sees no prospects o overcoming f.
 It is one ot the most natural thing! Ill rho world that the people of Eas Lyme should protest against the los of such service. It indicates the valu' of it and the dependence placed upor it. Real appreciation of such an assa is too often disregarded until the los of it is threatened. Understanding tn situation concerning the operation c cars over the section of the road tha reaches to Flanders, it is not impossibl that the people affected will be willin, to give their patronage to the electric rather than some other mode of trans portation. It is much easier to keep trolley line in operation these day than it is to permit it to be dismantlet and then seek a new one, or to expec 10 get as good and cheap service iron some other method,

4 BIG JOB.

Those efforts which are directed to. ward the elimination of illiteracy in this country are certainly well directed. There is a great and crying need for making it possible for each one to read and write, and for all those in this country to do so in the English Ian- guage
 In view of the fact that there are states which show little or no progress in the reduction of nlnerary and others where there is only a small percentage of betterment, it is a big job which the American Legion has tackled when 1t seeks to eliminate ilHteracy in this country by 1927. Much can be done in five years but possibly the enthusiastic legion members will have a better re- alization of the size of the job they have tackled after that period has passed. It is, however, an undertaking against which no word of discourage ment should be said. The accomplish ment of their effort is to be greatly de- sired. Not only does it deserve con- mendatlon but it should get all possible support. With the legion members hOlhIu5 JO all 0Llu OIler forces have long been struggling for greater progress should be obtained even though the goal is not reached
 The legion is advocating as an aid to such work the absolute curtaflment of immigration for a period of five years It is well to remember that all Hitter. ates do not come from abroad, and al who come from abroad are not Hitter ates by any means.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY

All convalescents are apt to become a little peevish and irritable. Try and humor them as much as possible. IT, is often. good sign, as it shows the patient is taking an ac- tive interest in everything around him.
 When the skin is not as fine and white aE might be desired for beauti- ful shoulders, gentle massage daily with the aid of good skin lotion gives the shoulders that soft, white appear ance which is so attractive. After massaging the unabsorbed lotion should be wiped off with a soft tow el before the skin is washed with soap and warm water. Cleansing with the lathered hands is preferable to a sponge or cloth, and less likely to ir- ritate tender skin.
 If you want to reduce a double chin, massage more vigorously and exercise more vigorously and omit the flesh building cream. Use kneading mo- essary fleshy bag just beneath the tion with the fingers over that nec- chin. This literally dislodges and dis tributes the sofe fatty tissue Finish with a cold rinse or spray the skin with toilet water, or if possible rub a piece of ice. Remember that in re- ducing more vigorous measures are necessary than in exercising to keep the chin young.
 Many women make a practice of lying down after lunch, but it is un- wise to do so until the meal has been d1geSted. A heavy, sleeping feeling succeeds slumber under the wrong conditions. All confining clothing ought to be removed, and a cosy eov- erlet drawn up, while strong light should be excluded. The habit of talk ing forty winks" in a chair, however comfortable, has by no means the res torative, qualities of resting the limbs at length with clothing loosened about the waist.

CHILDERs' EXECUTION,

Surprise has been expressed in Eng land at the action taken in Ireland in the execution of Erskine Childers. Pos sibly this feeling arises chiefly from the fact that Childers was an Englishman who had espoused the cause of De Va lera and the Irish republic, and in doing so had defed the Irish Free State and its laws.
 Childers is not the only one who has paid the death penalty, but he is one of the leaders, and given credit for being the brains back of the De Valera effor., and t is because of his prominence that greater attention is paid to his execu- tion. And vet there is no one respon- sihle for his death in front of the firing squad but himself. He was determined not to respect the laws of the govern ment that represents the sentiment of the great majority of Irish people. He was fully Acognizant of the penalty and by his act appeared to invite the conss- quences.
 It would have been possible for the Irish Free State to have overlooked his violation. It could have permitted him 10 live even though others had been put 10 death. but such partiality would have been looked upon as a weakness of tho new government and an inability to en. ,orce it's laws. It would have beer charged with being afraid to deal witl the strong but devoting it's efforts t. dealing with the weak.
 It was case where the new govern ment was called upon to show whether it's laws could be disregarded with i'm punity. It had put forth repeated warn Ings and it had been challenged in it. ability to carry out it's established laws It has been declared that such a dras lie step would. arouse resentment anC retaliation, but that would be no differ ent than is being experienced at tn present time, or than has been for ; long period. Those who are creatinj terrorism in Ireland have been show by the new government that it mean business. Those who are inclined | follow the course that Childers has bee, pursuing get new warning. It was ap parently figured that 1t was the ont thing that could be done under the cir cumstances ff the Free State wasn't t weaken its position.

rnE pArouERrY MArrER.

There is good reason why the judi siary committee of the lower house of congress should call for the presentation of facts by theN member who made charges against Attorney Genera; Daugherty and sought his impeachment. This committee wants the 'persons in- volved in each transaction, the time and place thereof, and the witnesses by which such facts can be established"
 It is a matter which ought not to be left standing in the position it has oc- ruried since the claims were made, Wild assertions which cannot be sup ported are grossly unfair Either it is possible to prove tho charges that have beef made and carry through the in,- peachment. or else those charges should be removed and the accused vindicated.
 Impeachment is provided for in order 10 get relief from intolerable conditions, but there is no more justification for seeking such action against a high of Ecial of the government without dls- posing of it than there is for the arrest 's an inAfyfduaI and permitting him to

languish in jail without hearing for an indefinite persod.
 It is not a matter that ought to be delayed When the attorney general seeks an early hearing it Is no more than ought to be expected. The idea of holding such a demand over a cabinet member and the head of the departmen: of justice is unjust. If there is any ground for asking for impeachment It should be possible for those making the demand to disclose it, and do their ut most in aiding the results which they desire to obtain On the other hand if it is impossible to produce the persons or the facts to support impeachment ae- ton, it is only fair to the accused that there should be a removal of suspicion and the charges shown to have no foun- dation- That is what the house jDdic- iary committee is apparently striving for in its demand upon the representa- tive who sought impeachment action.

RECIPES

Vegetable and Meat Soup-wipe two pounds of shin of beef which is one half meat and one-haf fat and bone, and cut the meat into small pieces. Put it with two tablespoons of salt in- to two quarts of cold water and let it stand one-half hour. Simmer for three hours, then add some pepper, one teaspoon of sugar, one cup of to- mato, one-half a cup of cabbage, one half a small turnip, one sprig of pars- ley and one piece of celery root. Cut all the vegetables up fine. Cook one hour longer, strain and cool. When ready to use, remove the cake of fat, bring the stock to a boil and add more salt if needed.

LAUNDRY BAGS

When making curtains for the bed room, purchase an extra two yards to fashion laundry bag for the room. Nothing is more untidy and depress- ing than soiled handkerchiefs or odd garments careleSsly thrown down un- til the maid collects them, and yet the ordinary laundry basket is an ugly af- fair, and large acceptable for soil ed linen is not pleasant to keep in the bedroom. There should be a large one in a convenient place, where anyone may use it-on very top landing or in the housemaids Cupboard on the bedroom floor. The maid can then en- pty all the individual laundry bags into this, and replace them in the bed rooms. A large washing satin draw string tied in a big bow should con- plete the chintz laundry bag, which will look quite pretty if left hanging from the knob of a chair There should also be a bag in the bathroom made of white linen, with the word bath room embroidered across in bold, bright colors.

GOOD ADVICE FOR ALL TIME.

Because it has been experiencing q series of fights, some of which have been sufficient to arouse suspicion. the belief exists in Springfield that a fire bug is at work. and warnings have been issued by the chief of the fire de- partment to the householders to clear away all accumulations of rubbish and innammable material and keep doors and windows securely locked against in- t-uders.
 That advice must be looked upon as excellent but it is only what should be given to the people of a community every so often in order that they may take the needed steps in behalf of fire prevention. That course should be fol- lowed whether there is a fire5uS at work or not, or whether sneak tI1ie7 es may be making an unpleasant v.E'ta- on
 There is nothing that aids those whc are determined t7 set fires or to ente- and steal than the unlocked window and dcor. or the accumulation 6: mA- teria! that burns opicl1ly and fe-2ely.
 The firebug i7 a menace Shat cannot be too quickly apprehended and placed uIldtS -SSIIGSlul TIC CSau about as quickly as anyone, and it makes no difference to him whether property alone, or human life as wsll Is at stake. The greater the excite ment and the worse the fire the happser he apparently is.
 For that reason there is big value a. tached to the work that can be done for self protection. But a fire is abhorred quite as much whatever the cause may he, and if it is possible through greater vigilance to increase the difficulty oi i those seeking to burn property. it must be evident that through the same exer. else of care those fires which occul through carelessness can also be pre- l vented.
 Keeping buildings free of the mater l ial that invites the application of ; match or torch is an important all veal duty. A great part of the fire vast, and the enormous losses that are sui fered each year could be easily over come if there was this same alert at tention given to keeping down fire raz ards as the fire chief of Springfield i
 urging upon the people of that city.

WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN
SUGGESTIONS FOR

THE HOUSEWIFE Milk kept in a large, shallow basin will remain sweet for a longer time than if kept in a deep jug.
 It is well to know that in storing away silver for some time it will not become tarnished if first packed in dry flour.
 When sending parcels a distance in the mail, it is wise to wrap them in several papers, each one addressed and tied, so if the outer wrappings come off the destination will still be known.
 The saw-Ike roughness of a collar that is begiming to wear may be ov- ercome by rubbing the edge with a piece of paraffin wax. And yet the collar will not be soiled. by the wax.
 Picked walnuts are delicious if mix ed with the salad to be served with egg mayonnaise.
 When dusting carved furniture use a painters brush with moderately stiff bristles.
 When washing glassware use bora1 instead of soda This prevents any greasiness, and the glasses polish more easily.
 To remove the odor of fish from sil- verware add a spoonful of mustard tC the, washing-up water.
 China and cooking utensils that have become stained can usually be clean. ed by rubbing with ammonia.
 The seats of cane bottomed chairs if slack, can be frightened quite easi 1y. Sponge both sides with hot suds and salt, dry out of doors and theI ! iron the seats. Use a hot iron and { damp cloth.
 Diluted cold tea is one of the bes cleaners of varuished paint-work.
 It fs well when making bread ant l doing other work, to set the alarm a l the time the bread is ready to com out of the oven. There will then be nj danger of the bread getting too brow 1 or of its burning. To cleanse a grater of the particle of cheese, lemon rind or other food that adhere to it use a small w1r brush. One kept strictly for the pur pose should always hang beside tn grater.

 Collars and cuffs of embroidered net in deep shades of ecru are increasing ly popular in the Poiret twill models created for early spring wear.
 Metallic ribbon in narrow bands was seen recently on the sleeves and side panels of a Poiret twill dress, forming basket. weave design. The pattern was left open and lined with bril- liant shade of red.

WHEN BUYING sPoNeEs

It is always advisable to pay a good price for sponge. The cheaper qual- ities soon fall to pieces. The new rub Der sponges are very excellent and wear quite as long as the natural Va riety.
 Before using a new sponge soak it for twenty-four hours in water, so that it is perfectly free of all irritating particles. Never put soap on a sponge, for it will soon make it slimy and use less. Net baskets should be provided for every bathroom, one for each sponge, with the owners name on each basket. This precaution is es- pecially necessary where there are small children.
