BOO Invitations to j -ople in al! parts of the world who call Norwich home shows how her children wander, and that the influ ence of this wejl-founded town is felt in many states and In many lands. Those who can look back to Norwich ancestors undoubtedly would make a city several times greater than Nor wich itself iatday. We know thw the major portion of them are 'not here to help us cele brate, but there Is fiot one who is not with, us in spirit not one but de sires to know ail the details of this manifestation of civic prjde. They would ail like to be here; and those who have come find many changes In the appearance of the place and aee only an occasional familiar face, and those who could not oome are pleated by the fact that they are atUl remem bered at the place of their birth that some on remembers them. The hom ing; instinct la natural to most of God's creatures they have a place of abode which thejr prefer a natal place they cannot forget. They do not expect to And the old hearthstone er the old scenes. The elders among them stand practically In a new city with visions of the eld plaee abiding In their minds and warming- their hearts. The very face of Nature changes and there is probably not a tree In existence or a waterway or hill the came as when Mason and Underhlll were chasing the aborigines through a wilderness here f plenty and beauty; but there are a few plaeea that were made dear by association or in some other way which do endure. Old memories of Norwich do not hold the same hills and habita tions, or even skies. Each heart treas ures what was near and dear to It, and It finds Joy In being home once more. Nathaniel Cotton was right when he sang in "The Fireside": "The world has nothing to bestow From our own selres our joys must flow, And that dear hut, our home!" Wi know that there axe a few hu man creatures so broad or metropoli tan in spirit that the whole world seems to be heme to them, and they are classed as those who have the wanderlust; and those who are of the 1 heart-keeping home class do not un derstand them; but it la more than probable that they catch their hearts beating faster and their minds long ingly reverting to boyhood's scenes as we do, when they hear vibrating through the air. that beautiful song, "Home, sweet home, be it ever so hum ble there's no place like home." Norwich greets all her children to day with the warm heart of a mother, and she yearns for those who are not here as the mother heart ever does and ever must. She loves her chil dren and is conscious of the golden chord which makes them one great family regardless of where they may be located beneath the sun. She Is proud of them as they are proud of her, and is conscious of tho fact that their attainments broaden her fame. Those who are with her will find the eld cordiality here, if there are many new faces; and warm hearts and glad hands and old-fashioned hospitality will be the order of the festival which Is being celebrated by us all. OUR GREATEST INDEPENDENCE DAY. TVhat was expected to be a great and memorable September festival has because of incidents beyond the con trol of the people become our great est eelebratlon of the Fourth of July. Many things would have been differ ent had not the programme been so unexpectedly changed; but it Is doubt ful if the results would have been any more satisfactory had the original pro gramme been adhered to. The spirit shown by our. citizens in the prepara tion for the celebration leaves no doubt that their hearts are In the work, and the programme Is so exten sive that it makes one wonder how so much can be accomplished in two short days. We shall have with us President Taft an many distinguished men of this state and other states, visiting civic organizations and from 30,000 to BO.000 of our neighbors; and the fact that some organizations have been disappointed because of not hav ing an Invitation shows with what favor our celebration is elsewhere re garded, and how good our repute is as Joy-makers on special dccaslons. Norwich should be conscious of the fact that she has .more in her 260th celebration than she possibly could have had If the old date had been adhered to that the pageantry of the occasion has been made much greater because of the presence of the presi dent, whom we all regard with high favor and for whom we have only warm hearts and loud huzzas. The presence of John Mitchell will be especially gratifying to organized labor and to the people and our vis itors in general. Mr. .Mitchell has en Joyed the distinction of being the greatest, because the most rational, labor leader of this age. He la a man of good consoier.ee. Judgment and fair mindedness, and la likely to be only second te President Taft In popular ity, and not half the people who desire -Will be able to hear his address on Franklin square. The distinguished gentlemen who will address those who were fortu nate enough to preoure seats in Broad way theater are well known for their scholarship and forensic ability, and this is a guaranty ef an unusual men tal treat there. There will be crowds everywhere and good nature because American crowds are always good natured; but every Individual should be alert for the feol in an automobile, of which The Bulletin hopes there will not be one; and for the llght-flngered gentry w ho relieve people of their wallets and their Jewelry, and of such there are likely to be a fair number, for the buz zards always gather where the prey Is. It is not polite to carry luncheon to a host's house except upon such an occasion as this when he is liable to be eaten out of house and home. Nor wich homes are full of visitors who came in by the thousand on Saturday, and the streets will be filled with hun ry jeepla at midday who are very, likely to exhaust the hotels and res taurants. Those who bring their lunches will be secure; and those who do not. If In straits, should not forget the tabloid lunches of the drug stores. The committee have so arranged the flreworks that they will be seen from hundreds of homes and scores of places in different parts of the town. It shouid also be remembered that those whose deeds are evil, and who will be seeking deserted houses, do not line Hunt any better than they do bulldogs, and that to keep the homes of Norwich ablaze with light tonight is to beautify the city, and also to defc-at the purpose of those whose intent is vicious. The events of these two days are liiinly to bo as numiorable as anything which will occur within the lives of tho presont generation, as they will form one of the brightest festivals In the history of this good old town. SUGGESTIVE CRUDE ART. The cr.orse but effectively modelled group which decorates Chelsea parade labelled: "The Founders, IS59," has called forth some adverse criticism because it has not dawned upon a part of our citizens that the concept Is beautiful whatever the material may be, and that such a memorial of the founders as this wrought in enduring bronze by our own artist. Bela Pratt, would be a permanent evidence of our consciousness of the great service of the Founders to us and all the genera tions before us, and en evidence of the taste for art which has been cre ated In us and that we are awakening to the ministry of beauty In the affairs of men. Some of our citizens used to talk of the day of mural decorations for Nor wich a quarter of a century ago, and were held in derision and were told occasionally by more sordid citizens that "such talk was all bosh." The Bulletin is pleased to think that the spirit is not dead which foreshadows a day when our citizens will realize the true significance of such a celebra tion as we are having, and the value of leaving to the celebrators of the next half-century some enduring thing that we did which may be a token to them of our gratitude, our taste and our good sense. An exposition leaves to a city aa a memento of its Importance a great building. Why should not a genera tion celebrating such an event as this leave a little something for the com ing men and women besides a munici pal debt? The Bulletin commends the judg ment and good taste of the commit tee and hopes that the broad sugges tion contained In this temporary group will sesult in making permanent what is now perishable art. EDITORIAL NOTES. Happy thought for today: Ono to day is worth ten tomorrows. Independence day, when shockingly policed, looks like a prisoner. John Mason knew that "using a mul titude of words is no sure way to find out the truth." We are entertaining within our gates today many strangers, and may be en tertaining angels unawares. To come of good stock Is cause for pride unless by virtue of having dis honored it the race is petering out. All the visiting sons nd daughters will have to confess that "the early home is the green spot in all their memories." Such events as these deserve perma nent commemoration. The impress of each generation might in such a way be expressed. I Since John Mason first settled in Dorchester, Mass., we are close of kin to that Massachusetts town, as well as to Saybrook. Man for untold ages has prayed that truth and Justice may rule. Let's re peat the prayer and have faith that in time they really will. The little lads of this generation like to play Indian and in their mod ern outfits look prettier than any lit tle Indian ever did before. Do not worry about the future of Norwich God and Norwich have been together fror. the beginning; It is the generations of men who fall. The social divisions and derisions of today seem to be something; but the authors of them half a century hence will only be rust. Time levels all. One only has to read carefully the history of Norwich to see how the rivalries of one generation become the sores of the generation that fallow. "What are progress and refinement, save as goodness Is their trim," sings Dr. Chester. "Te are civilized for nothing if ye still are leagued with sin." The youth who are looking on to day are the men who .will prepare the programme for the next half-cen-tury's celebration over past achieve ments.

Why should all the public monu ments be raised to heroes f,nd states men? Are not citizens who make men great and able and useful just as de serving? What was the general Illumination of the city BO years ago to what it is now? And what is this electrified and bedecked city to what Norwich may be in 1959. It took Norwich 200 years to become conscious of the fact that she was worthy of a jubilee, but it took her only 50 years to realize that it was worth repeating. The founders of Norwich won the site by fair dealing and friendship, not by conuest and blood. Our title to the land bears the name of "Onkas" and his two sons. This seems to be the time to retell the advice of Captain Underhlll, who, In 1636, said: "Let no man despise advice and counsel of his wife, though she be, a womanl" In Eliot's day, an Indian complained that he bad not heard the Christian religion spoken of In 2 years. These pioneers shot the Indian first and prayed with him afterwards. The women, of Norwich placed a monument above the remains of Uncas and raised the first stone in America to commemorate the friendship exist ing between an Indian chief and the whites. Norwich women are always firsts. The question waa asked In '59: "Are the good things and the brave things, all past things 7" Wo now sUad look. r V Woman in Life THE THIN 8UMMER WRAPS, i Thin, light, sometimes oven trans parent dinner wraps are the surprise of the summer, and this not only be cause ef their length and fulness, but also because of the colors and mate rials used In them, which are so un usual. There Is, for Instance, a wrap of bronze-colored nlnon de sole (a silk muslin) which is trimmed with ruches of taffeta of the same color. It is lined with the thinnest and pal est bronze chiffon (almoae a cream). Another wrap of the same material and color was given wide borders of Jet spangles. Again, there are long wraps of heavily embroidered white batiste sometimes worked with white, but as often with pastel or faded shades of floss. There is a pronounced vogue lor un llned muslin cloth or wraps; loose garments in the pastel shades trim med with black satin borders. These have a single black cabochon aa a fastening or a single cord and pet What all Paris Is talking1 about Is the new cloth called cote de cherai a cloth which resembles the glossy, well-brushed horse's coat, and which moulds the form, they say, a little more perfectly than any of the pre vious weaves of late years. Bronze, old gold and powder blue are the three new favorite colors. Marie Oliver, In Harper's Bazar. NEEDLEWORK SUGGESTIONS. Pari Transfer Pattern No. 8011.

Many peo ple embroider the stems on the right side, simply doing ihe blossoms In shadow design, which- gives an ex tremely pretty effect. Price of pattern, 10 cents. GINGHAM AND VOILE8. The cotton voiles and all of the pret ty novelty materials In light-weight hold a certain advantage fever the pro saic gingham, which Is at Its best but gingham. White no one would attempt to de ny the reliability and beauty of the gingham dress, we are all free to ad mit that it is essentially a frock for morning wear; Its place is defined and The Proper Attention As Mrs. Rice, 'the suppression of unnecessary noise advocate, has not succeeded In diverting American patriotism from expressing itself on the Fourth of July by means of ex plosives of various kinds, there Is every reason to believe that the cas ualty list of our national holiday will line up In length with those of pre ceding years. Carelessness on the part of parents, disobedience on ths part of Young America and greed on the part of dealers are responsible for most of the accident that the eelebratlon of In dependence day brings forth. If children were properly protected from the use of toy pistols, giant firecracker and other dangerous noise-making devices but why talk of things as they ought to be? It were better to accept them as they are and to give a few Instruc tions to mothers who are apt to lose their heads when Johnnie or Mollie ft badly burned. We all know that the best treatment for the Fourth of July accident Is, to use a Hibernianlsm, to guard against it. But when the Inevitable does hap pen and in case of serious Injury the manner In which a sufferer is cared for during the wait for medllcal as sistance may ward off life disfigure ment or probable death. A calm, cool, self-possessed woman or man at such a time becomes an angel of mercy, not only to the victim but to his distracted family. In dealing with burns, both super ficial and severe, it is well to bear In mind that immediate exclusion of air from the wounded surface will great ly relieve the sufferer. Should the Injury consist merely of a reddening of the skin the beat method is to sprinkle it thickly with bicarbonate of soda, then bandage it with a wet cloth till the burning sen sation Is allayed. As soon as relief is obtained the Inflamed skin may be protected, from the at.tlon of the air by painting it with the white of an egg. The first layer of egg being dried apply a sec and and a third. When the burn is of a more serious nature and the cuticle has been blist ered or destroyed, quickly give the ing back over a half century which has more "Brave things and good things" than any half-century that ever preceded it. Describing Ancient Norwich, "Ik Marvel" wrote: "And of a Sabbath morning, while the dew la sparkling on the grass and on the treetops, the church bell from the rocky height yonder tone after tone tone after tone spends its weet gushes of sound over the roof of the farthest ettler." Meeting House rocks are still looking down upon us, though tha bell la i lent and the elte blank. rA FJORYSTCH EULLETIN, and in the Kitchen J It can never be utilized for other times and places. The pretty voile, even at Its sim plest, is a material that passes mus ter as an afternoon or summer even ing frock, and the same gown, just because it is inexpensive and unpre tentious, may be utilised for the morning as weJL Dandelion Wine.

Disfiguring scars are often the re sult ot such Injuries, tut 6klllful at tention will do a great deal to prevent this possibility. Injuries from toy pistole, that are such a Joy to ths small boy and a cause of anxiety to the mother, are favorite mishaps of the day, and when the skin is broken from such an ac cident there Is danger that powder may have entered the cut. The affected part should be cauter ized as soon as possible. If one has a bottle of carbolic acid In the house, this cauterizing is easily done by dipping a toothpick or match stick in the acid and applying tha acid to the wound. When carbolic acid Is not at hand call the nearest doctor or send ths child to a drug store. If there is powder In the eyes of the enthusiastic celebrants, draw the up per lid down well over the lower and have the patient blow his nose forci bly at the same time. If the troublesome particle should get Imbedded under ths lower lid, draw the lid down by the lashes and let the sufferer turn his eyeball toward the nose, then use a soft handkerchief to clear the eye. In wiping the eye always move to ward the nose, as this is the direction taken by the natural secretions. Particles Imbedded In the eyeball will have to be attended to by a sur geon, but great relief can be given by bandaging the eye before the physi cian arrives. Shock very often follows a severe burn, and the sufferer, although not unconsicious, lies in an apathetic state that is truly alarming. Failure to rally from this may Indirectly cause death. To treat a patient suffering from shock lower the head1 and administer stimulants until the heart action Is revived. Heat should be applied to the pit of the stomach and the ex tremities. Brandy and water Is the best stimu lant where there Is nausea, or hot tea, coffee, or beef tea may be used if the patient can retain it. When the clothing takes fire pres ence of mind will often prevent very serious mishaps. Much the worst thing a person can do is to run shrieking. for help, and this is exactly what every child does.' ,It would be a wise precaution for mothers to give a little talk to their youngsters before the great day on first aids and Impress upon them the Importance of keeping their mouths shut If the clothes should become ig nited, for the greatest danger comes from Inhaling the flames. They should be told to lie down and roll about them whatever heavy woolen object happens to be in reach. Even a wosl en coat la better than nothing. When covering a presen whose clothes are aflame be sure to begin at the head, to guard against ths flame reachlrur the mouth. Philadelphia Tlmas- Pv!C"DAY JULY 5, KOO. Duchess Potatoes.

It was the sixty-seventh auuu vtrsary of the Sunday scbooi- scenery witti shaded streets sad oharmtoig homes?" Above all it is a Joy to think how many people have dwelt here who were worthy of such a home men and women of thought, of honor, of refine ment, of patriotism of practical Chris tian character. Whatever may be true in other lands, I am sure that in America the best, most characteristic life of the nation Is to be found, cot in the gerat cities so much as in the smaller towns. As a lover of my country I should be willing to have any cultured foreigner vlalt Norwich and form hie opinion of America frota that town. In the new century upon which we have entered, may the sons and daughters of Norwich relallze that no town can live upon its past; and that the way to keep Us laurels green is for all to observe the Christian pre cept, "By love, serve one anothr." Very truly yours, HENRY S. HUNTINGTON. Durango, Colorado. Hon. WKMam H.

I have delayed this acknowledgment, hoping that it would be possible for my family (my wife and daughter) and myself to accept the invitation and be present In person, but fate and over 2,600 miles distance iprevent, ana we must be content by presence In spirit only. I remember very well the 1859 celebration and was on the float of The Norwich Bulletin, In the proces sion, maklnx myself useful, and after warda partook of the good things in the large tent on the lot west of the Norwich Free Academy.

A Wc223 Hanilialed Weuld Net AHend Social Functions Because of Her Hair. There are many women In this world, handsome In features, perfect In form, graceful of movement and brilliant of mind, who keep In the background Just because they have thin, colorless and lusterless hair. In Paris they understand things about the hair that we do not know In this country. It was a Parisian, Pr. Sabourand, who discovered that thin hair and dandruff are caused by a microbe. It is Parisian Sage that proves Dr. Sabourand's theory to be correct, for It is rigidly guaranteed by The Lee ft Osgood Co to kill the dandruff germ and cure dandruff, falling hair, and itching scalp In two weeks or money back.- Parti Ian Sags Is a delightfully pleas ant hair dressing and invigorator; It is not sticky or greasy. It should be used freely In Summer aa it keepa the scalp dean and cool and free from odors. Ths price for Parisian Sage is only 60 cents for a large, generous bottle and Is for sale by leading druggists everywhere. Sold in Norwich on the money-back plan by The Lee ft Osgood Co.
