"WOMAN POWER"

The Dairymen's League CO-opera-
tive Association of New York has,
as part of its activities, made a sue
cessful effort to organize its "wom-
an power" AS Arthur M. Hyde,
Secretary of Agriculture, pointed
out in a recent address to the
League, "the farmers wife is his
partner not only in the home but
very often in the operation of the
farm"
Cooperation is more than a mere
method of selling. 1t is, as Mr..
Hyde has said, ga mental habit rip
ened into a course of conduct. 1t is
matter of mutual helpfulness, a
recognition of the rights of others.
:" And in forwarding the ends
of cooperation, the work of the wo-
men of the farm can be of inesti-
mable value. The great success of
the Dairymen's League is ascribed
in part to the cooperation of these
women.
Other co-operatives, throughout
the country, whether they deal with
dairy products or wheat or cotton,
would do we'll to follow this lead.
Cooperation, to achieve the finest
results, must be carried as far as is
humanity possible. Men and women,
to whom farm problems are their
life problems, must work together
to attain the common goal.

MANY PETITIONS
 FOR PUBLIC WORK:
Appeals Made For Improve ments in All. Parts of
 the City
SETTLE IN ADVANCE

Members of the board of public works had a busy session, at the boards regular meeting at the City Hall last night when numerous re- quests for relief were heard. The board tabled the matter of laying out and grading Bidwell street but instructed Superintendent Thomas J. Fleming to adjust the layout of Lexington avenue.
 The petition of J. A. Blanchard asking for retaining wall along Oakhill avenue was denied. The city cut several feet from his property in laying out the street he said, and he felt he was entitled to wall. A request to have Boyden street wid- ened near the Girl Scout camp in Waterville was also referred to the street committee. A petition for con- struction of a sewer on Platt street, was referred to the board of alder men. The sewer is to run from: Tu: dor to North Main street.
 A petition for a sewer on Chipman street extension was referred to the committee on sewers. Sidewalks will be laid on Highland avenue, Law Tor street and Lincoln street, pro- vided the property owners pay the assessments in advance. Residents of Willow street from Hecla street agreed to pay the assessments and waived their claim for sidewalks. A request for a sewer on Beach street, was referred to the sewer committee and superintendent of streets and sewers. Wooden side- walks for the present will be con- structed for the benefit of Fairfield avenue property owners.

An enthusiastic audience heard one of the finest debates ever held in the city last evening when the senior commercial class of the Wat erbury Catholic high school argued the subject: Resolved: That the States Should Enact Legislation Pro- viding for Unemployment Insur- ance.''
 The negative side was awarded the decision by the judges who in ciuded pr Michael c. Donovan, James c. Gilinartin and Thomas Nolan. Effective arguments were presented by the winning team to the effect that unemployment insur- ance was unsound from an econ cmical and social standpoint. The spirit of the insured would have a tendency 70 weaken with the sup port which it would obtain for the employers ana government and the burden would be too great for the people responsible. The members of the team used a very fine choice of material in arguing their points and their untiring efforts in preparing for the debate were rewarded by it's complete success.
 Although losing in their stand, the members of the affirmative team showed wonderful display of loyal sDortsmanship and student cooper ation. The main argument of the af- firmatives was that large concern should be able to prevent poverty and depression and one of the best means of doing this was by unem- ployment insurance.
 Both the teams were highly praised by the judges for their ex-
