by this promised commemorative issue.
 While some may be disappointed with the choice of the Charter Oak as design, still and all it is something that everybody in the United States who ever opened a history book in their childhood days is familiar with. The picture of the Charter Oak at one time graced every grammar grade history, Perhaps it still does. And while, as the Hartford Courant points out, the Charter Oak does not represent the founding of the state, it is as typyical of colonial Connecticut as any subject that could have been picked.
 It now remains for our Bureau of En- graving and Printing to do the rest. We sincerely hope that the engravers will do their part in producing design that. will be not merely faithful to the original, but also graceful in appearance. To the print CTS our injunction is for as skilled work manship as is possible. And that includes some thought to the color We note the "rich lilac" Let it be that and not wishy-washy purple. Our demands are not many. We simply crave as near per- lection as the printing art permits.

Go Thou, Do Likewise

A community in Ohio is building cinder path beside dirt road, dirt road, mind you, for seven-year boy to use every day in his trek between home and the school bus which comes only along the main road half mile from his home. There was much argument before this plan was agreed upon. The school authorities had said it was dangerous to have the school bus drive down the narrow, dltched dirt road on which the boy lives. The father had said he would not permit his boy to risk his life walking along that road because of traffic perils.
 Truant officers, juvenile court judge, and the father held a conference. From It came the double plan to have the father walk with his son to the bus stop, while the town lays a path alongside the road. When it is done, the boy will use 1t. Fancy striking on just such happy little incl dent as this with which to illustrate the need for similar paths right here in Con- necticut. We don't suppose it will be of much use to call anything like this to the attention of our State Highway Depart ment or even the Legislature, but we can't resist the temptation to point out that what other states can do, so can Connecticut.
 Footpaths or sidewalks along highways have been the subject of much discussion and agitation for long time. Many peo- pie think some of the gasoline tax funds should be diverted to financing construc- tion of such paths. The building of them is now being accomplished in few states as part of the relief projects. Whatever the method it should be pushed as rapidly as possible along existing highways and where urgently needed.
 We have long recommended to the state the advisability of including plans for paths alongside all new roads, particularly in areas where men, women, and children use the highways going to and from their work, school, etc. We advocate that fu- ture highway construction be figured with paths or sidewalks in on the original job. Where the saving of human lives is con- cerned the added cost does not figure.

Our New Stamp

It has been definitely settled that the Connecticut tercentenary stamp will depict the famous Charter Oak. This ends any controversy that might have been raging within philatelic ranks over the subject matter of this commemorative, the first in 1885. The date of issuance will be April 26th and Hartford has been chosen as the first day city, that is the city in which the first of this series of stamps will be sold. The P. O. plans include second day sales in every other town and city of Connecticut.
 The stamp will be rectangular and of the Special Delivery size, three cents in denomination, of course. The color, as announced in Washington, will be "rich lilac. A single line border will enclose the central design. The wording to be placed on the stamp has not yet been Announced. However, the salient facts are out and they should convince the aver are man that the state will be well served

The Lieutenant Governor Speaks Up

It must have come somewhat as shock to the easy going members of the State Senate to realize yesterday that their pre- siding officer the Lieutenant-Governor of Connecticut, Mayor Frank Hayes of Waterbury, was verbally castigating them. And yet when they realized the full import of his words they must have agreed with what he said. For His Honor merely pointed out to them that the man who makes an appointment and fails to keep it will fail in other respects, too.
 Daily during the sessions of the Legis- 1ature it is Senate custom to adjourn until :15 of the following morning. We don't know how many years this custom has been in vogue, but sufficient certainly so that no member of the Senate could fail to be ignorant of it. Yet year after year the II :15 a. m. opening is ignored. As Mayor Hayes pointed out, yesterday the Senate was almost thirty minutes late in getting down to business. His threat to open the Senate in the future regardless of the number of members present ought to make the honorable members feel their obligation in this matter.
 There is a lot of irony in this situation. Legislative business is strictly along exact calendar lines. The biennial opening IS regulated by time. Bills are dated for hearings A legislative calendar is kept. All in all the routine is very much as per schedule Yet when it comes to a personal response to the same type of regulation the human element enters and disrupts 1t. We hope the Senate will accept the rebuke of it's presiding officer in the spirit offered. The eyes of the state are upon it.

Spank Elm

More dangerous than was Dillinger, perhaps, are those teachers and writers who are telling parents they must never spank their children" says Garry C.. Myers, midwestern college professor, writing in the Forum. He takes fall out of the supposedly scientific psychology which, for a quarter of a century, has been preaching that restraints are dangerous to mental health and character Under this teaching, parents who take their parental principles not from tradition or common sense, but from the latest scientific fad, have been letting children do about as they pleased, with only little mild persuasion or expostulation now and then.
 Professor Myers believes this doctrine of no restraint has been the leading cause of our grawing vandalism and crime. Now, as his new-old gospel spreads, the chil- dren may come in for another good old fashioned course of parental control and self-restraint. And nobody can tell how long that will last. The usual common sense rule of the middle course', avaiding extremes in either direction, probably holds here. Some control, some freedom, a little spanking, perhaps, but nothing in excess

[. U. S. J. MEMBER TAKES
 WHACK AT GENERAL JOHNSON
March 29. 1885.

March 29. 1885. . Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 I have been waiting patiently during the past few weeks expect ing some patriotic Irishman in this community that would be better qualified and have more scholarly attainments than l presume to have. would enter the arena and reply to the vile epithets hurled at our race by that bloated general known as General Johnson who l am sure has not the qualifications of gentleman. You must always judge person by their acts and expressions. 1 am referring to the Espeech delivered by the above gen. eral to a crowd of capitalists who cheered vociferously when he re- ferred to our revered priest. the Rev Charles E. Coughlin, as the Canadian priest with the Irish brogue. The above general ought to know that the brogue was used by our forefathers at Valley Forge, Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill and their rifles also with telling effect on their ancient and inveterate foe the British hirelings. but as time progresses noticed that others are inclined to take up a defensive attitude in be- half of the capitalists. The first I notice is Rabbi Wise. He wants to known why the few capitalists should be brought under fire. Let him think 1t over. Then we have His Eminence, Cardinal OConnell. T wonder if he wants to take the side of the oppressor against their brethren in Christ. Is that the doc- Urine that was inculcated into our minds when we learned the cate- chism? I thought it was feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and give drink to the thirsty. Are you prel- ates of the church going to stand by that doctrine? If not on your own shoulders lay the responsi- bility. What is creating this want and misery7 Surely the blame must be attributed to the right class. Is 1t not the capitalists, the bankers, and intriguing politicians who arc wasting the taxpayers money on their nefarious doings7

guardians are the biggest bunch of racketeers that ever trod the earth. The system they use Is as old as the hills. By keeping all of us busy talking about something else they hope to pull the wool over our eyes. The public is becoming informed on things they wish to keep the soft pedal on.
 Referring to imitation, Senator Lempke says, The true definition of imitation is, any money not put out by the bankers" The trinity is for a sound dollar. Their defi- milton of a sound dollar is checks. drafts, notes, bonds, mortgages, and trick bookkeeping. Anything that gives them 8 rake-off Is sound. Anything that does not give them rake-off is unsound.
 The soldiers want Q wing off the chicken. The chicken in this in- stance represents Interest on War Bonds" There are Il billion dol- lars of war bonds. The banks own One-haH of them. Each year the in- terest dmounts to $400. .0OO, 900. Every 5 years this amounts to 0 2 billion dollar bonus to the banks and bond holders. Every 6 years they get what the soldiers have been waiting IT years for. The soldiers will get the bonus only once. Meanwhile the coupon clip pers will continue to defend the good old sound dollar. The sol- diers are mere pikers compared to the coupon clippers. The trinity says that the soldiers bonus means 2 billion dollars of the taxpayers money will go to three per cent of the population. They don't mem ton the fact that every years, 2 billion dollars of the taxpayers money goes to the coupon clippers who, represent only four ten thou sandths of one per cent (.0004) of the population.
 Thus, you see dear reader, why the trinity fights so hard to keep their racket. They figure if any one else cuts in 1t will spoil every thing--for them.

INNOCENCE IN WATERBURY
(Meriden Journal)

over in Waterbury there has been considerable support among the citizens of charter amend ment requiring the city govern nent to call for bids on all con- tracts to supply materials or do work for the city in amounts of 1000 or more.
 The Waterbury Republican has pointed out the weakness of the charter provision leaving the op- ton of bids to the discretion of the city officials and recalled an $S1 1,000 sewer job, which allegedIy resulted in Waterbury paying $17.50 a foot against $10.35 . gfoot in West Hartford, where the same company operated. All would be jake, opines the Republican, if the bidding were made compulsory.
 Oh, yeah! Is the Meriden con- ment. Did the astute Republican never hear oS breaking down a sizable job into units under $t,000 and taking care of political bust ness friends, or of the ease with which unfriendly bidders can De sidetracked? Don't kid yourself, brother.

I am sorry to say that Father Finn took wrap at the National Union For Social Justice. Surely he ought not condemn people for joining an organization that will help to bet ter their conditions and put our exploiters where they belong. And if may pass judgment on the cap- italists and intriguing politicians. Hell won't be filled until they get there. Whilst we do not scorn ad- vice, beg to state for Father Films information that any lay persons knowing the Ten Com mandments and the Six Com mandments of Precepts of the Church will be enough to gain their eternal reward without be- ing theologian. There is an old proverb-take heed where you stand, lest you may fall.
