Ourselves

"Satan's Kingdom" Is the name
Of a small community in Connecti-
cut-in spite Of any previous views
that you may have held to the con-
trary.
The inhabitants have just decided
to cast into limbo the tallow candles
and oil lamps. In other words,
they have installed electric light
ing. In fact, every home in the
place, with one exception, is now
wired.
We wonder who was the In
spired man who dubbed this loca-
ton "Satan's Kingdom" We are
indeed somewhat curious to see
the place. But following the pre-
cepts Of our childhood we doubt
whether II would be advisable to
make q prolonged stay. Anyway,
the name 10 decidedly original.
