EARNEST STUDENTS

Occasionally there come to light incidents telling of quiet, effective work going on in this city among the most earnest students to be found, namely those who are trying hard, under many handicaps, 10 become familiar with our language and cus- toms. The workers belong to no or ganizations at all or to small groups banded together for the sole purpose of giving help without thought of praise for themselves or their or ganization, They ask no funds from the public, but do their work without ostentation and they find plasuro in the success they Achieve,
 Eut deserving (, praise also are tHosn among their students who ,.t no domestic worri,s or troubles inter fcrc with their earnest attempts to learn the English language. for in- stance. They attend to their duties at home, or do their work away from home, and yet give time to sincere efforts to take advantage of the teach ing Of those who come to them to help them learn.
 No attempt is made here to indicate any one class Of workers nor any one group Of studonts--there are many of each. But an attempt is made here Go express appreciation both to the unselfsh teachers who give their time to this labor and to the ones who try sa hard to profit by the instrue- tion given them, Both teachers and students should be encouraged by q knowledge that there is universal ap- proyaI oI their work and their study. Those Who are learning to speak our language, for instance. become dis outraged as the difficulties Of 1t con- front thcm If they realized what a fine thing they are doing in laboring to learn English, or in trying 10 learn any of the other things knowledge Of which is brought 10 them. such en- couragemcnt might urge them 10 go on. IT those who devote portion Of their time to doing this teaching quietly and unostentatiously apprc- ciate the splendid character Of their work. the cold weather the rain through which they must sometimes go to hold their little meetings would not dampen their enthusiasm for it.
 And people in the city who are too busy 10 give a portion Of their time to such good work-those who are really too busy and those who think they sre-should hold a higher opinion Of thc people Of New Britain when it is called to their attention that there are, hero in the city, many Of such unsclfsh individual teachers and many who are making considerable sacrifice to become better citizens ol the city

AN OLD sIIIJICI

There is a difference of opinion as c. the adyissbility Of continually barping on the number or automobile accidents taking place daily Granted that there may be no difference or opinion as to fhe increasing menace thc more numerous accidents are cm- phasiAng and granting that every human effort must be made 70 stop them. there are some intcfig. nt pco- pIa who believe. with Couc. that if a danger is pointed out every moment of every day the result will be that pe will run into that danger. Take his Illustration of thr obstruction iu the road and man riding bicycle. If Someone keeps pointing to that ob- sfraeiion, warning against it. bn will imagine himself running into it and vlt in fact, run into it This br- C. nse the imagination la noro power ieI than inc will.

the facts out occasionally in order
 to show the basis for the argument that this carelessness and recklessness simply cannot go on. It isn't some gentle matter that needs attention sometime. It is not some distant menace that we see beyond the hori- zon. It is a danger that must be met now. this minute. Ii is danger that should be thought of every time per son starts an automobile on journey, short or long. that may he a journey of death or a pleasant drive accord ing, usually, to the care exercised by the driver.
 So it is well to begin right here at home, No matter if the accidents in this city are not as numerous as elsewhere. This is nothing perhaps to boast of. There arc accidents and there should he none. A few, per- haps, are caused by something no one can help. But they are mighty few. A little more care, a bit more Of concentration on what the driver is doing, and there would be practically none.
 There have been more than two ac- cidents caused by automobiles every day in New Britain. Allow the over to be accidents that were unavoid- able, if you will. Stop those two ac- cidents. They could have been avoid cd and every driver of car knows it. And it is the business of every driver of car to see to it that he does not cause one of those two un- necessary accidents. Stop Congratu- lating ourselves that we are not as reckless as people in other cities. We are careless and reckless because we have any accidents at all. Until this frame of mind is reached, and until VIC stop saying that we can drive this way or that. al this speed or that because other people do it-until this time comes NC will keep on hay- ing auto accidents,
 Accdc0ts arc result of a frame Of mind in larsn measure. Don't fear them. or that fear may inspire lack of confidence that will cause them. But if We will merely deter mine that we will not have an acci- dent and if WS are men and women with enough control over ourselves to have the right to drive a car, We will stop the happening Of accidents in New Britain.
New Britain herald., 1923-11-03

We live under a republican form of government. We need forever to re- member that representative govern ment does represent. A careless in- different representative is the result of a careless, indifferent electorate. The people who start to elect a man to get what he can for his district will probably find they have elected man who will get what he can for himself. A body will keep on its course for time after the moving impulse ceases by reason of it's momentum. The men l who founded our government had fought and thought nightly on the relationship of man to his govern ment. Our institutions would go for a time under the momentum they gave. But we should be deluded if we sup posed they can be maintained without more of the same stern sacrifice offer ed in perpetuity. Government is not an edifice that the founders turn over to posterity all completed. It is an institution, like a university which fails unless the process of education continues.
 The state is not founded on selfish ness. It cannot maintain itself by the offer of material rewards. It is fffk opportunity for service. There has of late been held out the hope that government could by legislation re- move from the individual the need of effort The managers of industries have seemed to think that their diff culties could be removed and prosper T employe has been led to believe that his condition could be made easy by the same method. When industries can be carried on without any struE- gle, their results will be worthless. and when wages can be secured with out any effort they will have no pur- chasing value. In the end the value of the product will be measured by the amount of effort necessary to se- cure it.

OUR DOCTORS.

A great scandal concerning some of | the doctors of the state has come to light. The one thing to be empha- sized is that the scandal concerns only some of the doctors of the state. The fact that there have been
 irregularities, not fully understood as yet and not fully investigated, but certainly distressing, should not cast an atmosphere of anything unpleas- ant over the medical profession as a whole.
 This attitude should be emphasized today, not only for the sake of our physicians and in justice to them, but for our own sakes. We must not lose confidence in the physician who is dcyoting himself to us, trying to cure us of illness and trying with all lis skill to keep Us well. Our faith in the doctor who has been admitted 10 our home and who has come to us in storm and fair weather 10 help us, should not be shattered in the small est way by news of these irregulari- ties that has come.
 There are dishonest men in all walks Of life. There are people who pose as our friends who prove un- faithful, disloyal We should not look askanee at the doctor who takes care Of us merely because there are unworthy physicians in the state any more than We should refuse to make friends with any man because there have been shown to be faithless friends. The man or woman, plan ming to get married, should not fear the step merely because there have been so many unhappy even tragic marriages. Dishonesty, human frailty exists evfrywhere. That is one of the characteristics Of human nature. No one class Of men should be made to suffer because there have been shown to be members of the class who arc unworthy.
 Ia this matter of health the justice of this attitul" must hc seen. A coun- try city or state without physicians and their helpers, the devoted nurses would be an awful place in which to live. The moment distrust of physi- cians as a class is allowed to take possession Of a people, that moment their health suffers with tragic roc suits not only because the people hold aloof from physicians in times when & physician's services arc needed abs soutely. but also because the effect upon the mind caused by this distrust brings slckness-breedin worry
 Our people should have the same implicit faith in their physicians that do SO much to aid in curing them in bodily and sometimes mental ills. Rest secure in that faith in them that they deserve. Of the few who may have been iaithless to their sacred task or ministcring to tho sick, nothing will be said now. They are suffering: their punishment will come. But no thought Of them should take ono whit Of re- spcct from the profession members of which are deeply and unselflshly con- ccrncd over your health and mine.

HEAT

There are disa greeable duties con- nectcd with many public offices, duties which make people mad" when those duties compel an official 10 enforce a rule which affects those people to their inconvenience if not more. Landlords who. for one reason or another have been slow to see to it that they furnished the heat for premises they own. as demanded by law will be incensed possibly that drastic action is 10 be taken against thom. if they do not furnish the re- uuircd heat. On the other hand there will be many more people, cmployes in stores for instance who will be benefit ed by such drastic action 1T it is found necessary to take fl.
 Practically every householder has had tho experience of himself suffer- ing from the cold because he did not start his furnace in time. 1t was his own fault because fl is DO one else's duty to start his furnaS-> for him. He rented his apartment with the under standing that he was 10 furnish his own heat and he pays less rent be- cause he does so. No landlord has failed to provide him with a suitable furnace. He himself, the tenant. has just put Off starting his furnace as long as possibIc-and he is suffering as a result and hts family is perhaps, a bit uncomfortable,
 There are landlords who have fail- en into same error where they should furnish heat. Perhaps they have not started their own furnaces in their own homes. that is their own busi- ness. Perhaps they arr sorry that thcir homes are cold. But they have failed also. to start tho furnaces in the commercial places they own, and inc law tells them they must do go. They. tho landlords, may themselves be suffering at home, just temporarily. and tho employees of their commercial tenants may hr suffering too. The law takes care of such tenants. The landlord takes care of himself So in such casos, if is easy to scc how a landlord may not feel so terribly re- miss bccausc Inc has not furnished thc heat Tor his tenants That hn has not furnished for hiyueIf
 Ncycrthclcs that landlord should hasten to furnish That heat. If i= an nounr,d tiiat action viii ir taken against him if he does not It is a wiae provision or Inc law and il should Doe made more than q noan- fnEicss thing.

There is go greater necessity for tbcrH e geo 70 it that tbe trnrcrat1rn of Inc piaces they own. uherc they aTc required to furfish heat. i,c made proper < man should lake better care Of those 10 whom hs oaes a duty than he should Ike of himself. It is good that the public official whose duty it is to sse this law enforced has the courage 10 20 ahead and take fine necessary steps 10 have it enforced. Admitting that there are landlords wbosa failure to eBey tb, law promptly is due 10 fhougHtces1ess or oversight but whose intentions arr good. nercrtheft good intentions do not furnish heat auy more than good intentions add to thc aftractfveness of thr Tisee ssn- pssed fy be paved u1ih them.
