The Wonder of Life

NOTHING in nature is more wonderful
~ than the way life struggles TO sur
yive and adapts itself to environment
In the Olympic mountains scientists
find worms that live only in ice These
worms cannot stand the heat Of even a
human hand
II may be so on distant heavenly bodies
such as the planets. Conditions out there
might not support earthly life, yet would
be ideal for other life forms

THE. OPEN ROAD

Many of us dreamed, when the per
 plexitics of life, little and big, seem al-
 most to drive 10 distraction, Of the joy
 that would come from journeyng along the open road, free from worries other than those which may be ,cad- lily mot by the kindinG of camp fire or tho finding of soft, cool place in the shade where sleep would refresh.
 Perhaps some of us have tried this
 iourneying along tho road, and per- haps we have been disilusioned or have found that the freedom from anxiety, the breath of the open, has fully compensated for tho little in- convenienccs encountered.
 Tn. story of the four-ycar journey across the country by ON team, iinishnd
 just recently by two former residents of this city. fascinatns with its details of drawing m. al night. by Inc side of the road. cooking and eating supper wherever the dusk overlook them on the otit-of.fhe-wa ihoroughfares thoy selected, and going 10 rest in the wagon that was their home. X wistfnl look will como into tho eyes Of many a tired man of business and his socially wearied wife as he notes the tale, and many Of them will wish that they. foo. might leave present cares behind thom and strike out for "anyN here." travel. ing thus easily and calmly into new land.
 lsut while for the people who have just made this trip itwas wise one perhaps the Hisest course for them there gre many who can not consult their wishes in this way. Duties hold them; others are dependent upon their attending 10 those duties, and great affairs might suffer were they to fold their tent and steal thus quietly 1 away. The greatest wealth has it's duties as well as it's compcnsations. and while the open road may have its lure. almost too strong 10 resist, the ] office and the welfare Of others usual , y form ties that hold men and wom- | .n to the orbit, narrow or great. In . which circumstances have placed them But even they may follow, with joy n Their dreams tho fascinating pnth ilonc the open road.

| DiSrt:Cr LOSS

When New Britain loses Rev. J. Leo | Sullivan, who goes to North Haven i from St Joseph's Parish where he has served II years, distinct loss is felt
 moi oIly by those of his church but
 also by all interested in civic welfare, And perhaps no priest in this city has as many friends a Father Sullivan,
 who stood ready at all times to give
 prG Gctical evidence of his belief in the
 great creed Of brotherhood of man
 by word. a smile or a helping hand
 whenever possible.
 The qualities that arc taksn for granted in a priest, but which are sometimes not plainly evident, were characteristic of Father Sullivan. nor was he. like many mon who are in- yaria biy sympathetic and understand ing. one who won friends by lack Of firmness. His convictions. as VIC founl them were always deep. He was will ing and glad to take his stand firmly on the platform cf his belief, but never did he deny to another the right to an opinion differing from his. His efforts to help were just as earnest toward people whose mind did not run along the same channel with his, as they were toward those who thought as he thought, lived as he lived.
 withstanding his great personal popularity and his extensive list of warm personal friends, Father Sulli- vans public activity is equally as nctc- worthy No occasion ever arose when service from men Of standing in the city was needed when he was not found 10 be q willing contributor to the good by enthusiastic service. Never was a word needed to be spoken to advance a worthy cause but that word was upon Father Sulliyan's lips. |
 The people Of New Britain are strong in their good wishes for him in the new field to which he has been i called and, now that his departure 1, is imminent, they appreciate more [ fully the large place he has filled in the public and private life of the | city.

FRENCH ELECTIONS

! Certainly We did not expect Poin-
 care to be defeated as the returns of
 the French elections indicate: neither
 did the Frenchmen look for this result i Since it has come the important mat
 ter for us to consider is what effect it win have on Germany and France in regard to the working out of the l Dawes plan and the living up to it ! by Germany
 Tho swing 10 the left, bringing ] roincare's enemies to the fore, means
 actually that party will Dc in power which is more considerate Of plans
 tending toward moderation than mli-
 tarism. Although this is the actual fact. the danger is that Germany will
 not see this aspect Of the situation,
 but will emphasize. rather. iroincare's
 defeat and will be inspired 10 greater
 efforts at resistance to any practicable
 plan to settle Europe. And yet the
 Poincare government has made all
 things easier for those who have been
 successful at the elections. Almost
 may it be said he has been the goat"
 The tax returns which were put through, against the popular will,
 were necessary for France. Tho prac- tlcsl acceptaAe of the Dawes plan makes 1t easy to cling 10 that arrange ment. France is better off because Of
 Poincare's attitude and the attitude Of the ministry in establishing which he consulted. and almost catered 10. the left. Now that party comes into power. IL is naturally more lenicnt than was Poincare and now. with the tax question and the agreement to the Dawes plan out Of the way. il can well afford 10 continue that policy Of [ ieniency I'D to the point. and not be- yond, whom there may come general , accusation that 1t has failed 10 press Germany hard enough; that Il has not insisted upon the collection Of the { debt owed 10 France.
 And. it may be repeated. therein | lies the danger IT Germany believes nov that roincare has been shown to have lost the confidence of the French. ; or if Germany feels that his policies , are unpopular in France and that a plan o' greater consideration for Gcr- ! many vill prevail. then trouble from Germany may ho looked for oncr nore. roincarc's courage. in carrying through his plans even though he I,nsws months ago that unpopuiari'y f would come from them. has been -ood for France. 4 strengthening Of [ hozs opposed 10 him. provided it brings no ultra -nationaGistic action, would bs ad,izs bls for that country tbars the nrcd ot reconstruction is 10 great.
