A FINE LECTURE.

On February P, Horbort FrancisSherwood, a member of the New York

Tribune stuff, who accompanied thecommittee sent by the U. S. SenateInto Italy for the purposes of Investigating

the sources of Immigration,lectured on this subject before

the townspeople and a large audiencefrom the three boarding schools. Mr

Sherwood was formerly a Gunnerystudent and at one time a resident of

Washington. He contributes to the

Outlook, has travelled extensivelyand uses a first class machine for

stereopticon work. His Italian views

which were secured by himself in the

spring of 1907,' are particularly goodand gave especial pleasure to a num-

ber in the audience who had eitherlived or traveled in Italy. The jour-ney which the lecturer took with his

audience Into' the interior of Calabriawas full of lnterest,foi' there' are no

railroads In this mmntalnous region,except those which SKirt the shores

and travelers mrely visit the moun-

tain vHlnse, uhfre thf slow prog ess

of tho partv's at tomob le-- up the zig-

zag roadr was watched by the inhabi-

tants of the towns, who looked down

from their balconies as frora battle-ments and who could be seen passingalong the news of the auto's ap-

proach, so that a crowd was alreadyassemblftd in .the town street when

the next settlement was ' reached,leaving Calabria on the Palermo ex

press from Naples, one could quicklysee from the car windows what forces ;

had loosened up such an avalanche of

human beings from the hillsides of

Southern Italy and sent them farfrom their mountain homes to Ameri

ca. The treeless mils were as rootyas our New England slopes and deep-

ly scored with dry stony water-

courses, which showed the poverty of

the soil and what will overtake everynation which, does not protect its for-

est resources. The fields with their

high walls were watered from thewells the water being drawn forth bycrude wooden mechanisms : operatedby the stolid and omnipresent donkeybut these being hillside terraces were

made to "blossom as the rose." Leav-

ing the train at Messina, which had

been so m any times destroyed by

earthquakes that it" had little ofterest to the party,' they left the fated

city by way of the valley of a dryriver-be- d and climbed over the tree-

less hills to Gesso by roads which

wound like white macadamized rib-

bon, labyrinthine fashion, until themind was ready to believe a map of

the path traversed would look like a

seismograph chart. As one climbed

wider and wider views were caughtof the band of deep blue water flow-

ing between Scylla and Charybdis,ancient Rhegium gleaming on the farside and the theatrical background of

deeply scarred Calabrian hills, theircolors of garnet, rose, pink and greensoftened by a blue haze. The ve-

hicles met with were highfarm carts drawn, by small

horses' trapped in red and brasis, and

driven by good-- tured peasants.The sides of the carts were gay with

scenes from Sicilian history paintedin the primary colors.

The streets of Gesso, the first stop-

ping place down the mountainside,were almost as deserted as Pompeii,A few years ago this village had a

population of about 6000. Today the

houses with their worm-eate- n doors

are peopled by orly about 1800 wom-

en, children and old men who are

supported largely by money sent from

America by the able-bodi- who have

gone thence, i In our walks throughthe town one could not count more

than a dozen men in tne prime of life.

Crowning the hill on the far side as

one looked toward the snow-streak-

cloud wreathed summit of Etna was

a village apparent'y of the she as

Gesso. Within a few years, the guideinformed the party, this village had

sent two-thir- of its population to

An er'ca It was learned on the auto-

mobile trip from Reggio de Calabria

througn Basilicata to Naples as the

party passed through Scilla thatnearly one-fif- th of the former popu-

lation of about 10,u00 had gone to

lands across the Atlantic.Coasting around the curves, which

reminded one of shaking hands with

the engineer frora the rear platform of

a Shepaug train, the lecturer reached

Bagnara, This town, perhaps 25 milesfrom Reggio, lies stretched out in irregular fashion on the Bide of a precipitous hill overlookinsr the sea. In

numerable, barefooted women and

children swarmed the street but

middle aged men were comparativelyfew. Authors of guide books credit

Bagnara with being celebrated for the

beauty of its women. Evidently theybased their knowledge on one another'sworks. Perhaps m the days when thefirst guide book writer gave Bagnarathis impression it was true. One's im

pression to-da-y is that all the beautyhas been turned into physical strength.

contrast between masculine and fern

inine toil. This town, famous for itswomen, has lost one fourth of her

people, 4000 having gone to Buenos

Avres and North America. The same

conditions prevailed at Battiro, Men-teleon-e,

and from the mountain town

of Tiriolo occupying an aerial sitethousands of feet above sea level one

thousand out of six had found theirway to Naples and sailed to new homeB

across the seas. All along the routein most unexpected places the partymet people who had been In the NewWorld or ' who had relatives there.For example on the way up to Gallinafrom Reggio a young Calabrian was

cutting wheat with a hand sickle of adesign used by the Egyptians at thetime of the Israelites were . marchingout of that land. To the great surpriseof the lecturer this peasant saluted bimin angry English when he invaded hisfield in order to get a photograph ofthe worker, but welcomed the intrudermost cordially when he discovered his

visitor was an Americau citizen. In

English conversation which followed in

the young Calabrian said that he hadbeen in America four years at work onthe railway at Dobb's Ferry and in in

answer to the question, "Shall you goback to America?" he said, "I rich, Ibring back fifteen hundred dol'ajs,','which suggested that he had no in-

tention of doing so. He thanked theAmericans for taking his picture and,

although he displayed confidence in

self, quickness of perception, and an

enertry born of contact with America,one could not but conclude that his ed-

ucation in the United States had not

brought him in contact with agricul-tural operations.

LITTLE SERMONS.

JESlrf OF NAZARETH. BY O. O.

WRIGHT.

"And Jesus advanced in wisdomana stature, and in favor with God

and man.' Luke 2:52.

I liite to think of the example ofJesus of Nazareth as typical of the di- -

vjne significance of our common,human life. To me it teaehes what isthe real value of tue schooling and

discipline of this present wond. Itseems to me to indicate what are thebest conditions on earth for tho evo-

lution of the moral and spiritual life;and to show what is essential here, toour eternal hereafter. Let us thinkof the little country village amongthe hills of Galilee. The natural en-

vironment was simple, quiet, andbeautiful. The inspiration of Na-

ture was such as to help and not hin-

der the growth, and spontaneous en-

folding of the life of tne spirit, whichin the sight of God is more than all

that the schooling, culture, and ex-

perience of the worlu can give. Great,strong, pure characters grow from

within, by the Spirit of Truth, andare not dependent upon what theworid has to give. They are not sub

ject to the world; uut the wond is

subject to them. We are too muchwhat the world is pleased to make us.Jesus came to lift us above the world,by the sweet attractive power of thedivine love, which overcomes thecareworn, 3inful life of the senses.

Tne social life of Jesus must havebeen filled with (lie purest happiness,as it was noted ior its divine sim-

plicity. How lovely must have beenhis natural relations with hismother!How much is expressed in thosewords we pass eve' so liTht':'. we

may never kno-v- : "And his aetherkept all t!;e..e . a; in ;.er i.sart";but tuis we do krow, that tne pictureof the Madonna awl Child has an in-

conceivable power tor ?o-v- i upen thehearts r;f mankind: and the sacred

gift of motherhood is henceforth for-

ever associated with the Incarnation,and the redemption of the orld.And it may well be said that theyoung man who loves his motherwith a true, abiding reverence, can

scarcely be far from the saving graceof the Lord Jesus Christ. The socialcircle of village life seems to me toafford the best possible opportunityfor the practice of all the domesticand civic virtues; and for tne most

perfect fulfilment of that great, uni-

versal law of the spiritual life the

The first Spring Street Gowns, those familiarly known as "TrotteurSuits," are here, very smart in appearance, novel in color effect, and exceedinglywell tailored.

The Long Coat is almost universal, though the length varies a little.The lines are well defined and planned to give height and grace to the figure.There are braidings and bindings of Soutache and Hercules, bands of silk andfacings of satin, with buttons and buttons.

The Skirts are circular with gores at front and sides, the left side oftenwith an inserted panel. These also have bands and pipings with many buttons.

The materials which are in nearly all cases Novelty Suitings, are diago-nals, invisible stripes and blocks of soft fine weaves which drape to excellentadvantage.

Separate Walkikg Skirts.In connection with the Suits we have received a line of Black Walking

Skirts of Pacific Panama, both plain and chiffon finish. These also are on

day morning, $779 was raised to

apply on a debt of $900 incurred in

repairs on the parsonage. A black-

the church were prevented by illnessand other causes from being present.

clinch it. Directly in front of thespeaker stood a man in the crowded

aisle, mouth wide open, swallowingevery word. He attracted the atten-

tion of the audience and as Mr Lin-

coln, as it seemed, dropped his wordsinto the man's mouth his laughter atthe stories was taken up and repeatedby the throng. After Mr Lincoln'snomination a Wide-Awa- Glee clubwas formed and I had the honor of

being chosen as leader. We marchedand hurrahed and sang:

Republicans rally, our Union defend,Vivla honest Abe,

Then up boys, Wide-Awake- s, rallyWide-Awake- s,

One, two, three, hip, hip, hurrah,Vivla honest Abe.

Another song which was composedby a member of the cluo I give:

Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is

coming.From east to west, from north to

south,Abe Lincoln's name's i:i every mouth.For Lincoln he will bring relief,So freemen rally round your chief,Rejoice, rejoice, the Nation shall be

free.

Little did we think that theprophecy contained in that songwoud be fulfilled. The war came onand the slaves were freed. It is apleasure to me to think that I did mylittle part though small it seemedthen. Only three members of theGlee club are now living, Prof L. p.

A REMINISCENCE OF LINCOLN.

BY SHERMAN COGSWELL.

To the Editor 01 The NewtownBee: When Lincoln aeuvered his

Cooper Institute speech in New York

by request he repeated it at New

Haven and IWeriden. I was then em

ployed as assistant farmer and teacher of music at the Institution thenknown as the State Reform School atMeriden. Wnen Lincoln entered theTown hall the meeting Lad beencalled to order and Judge Brooks hadbeen appointed chairman. I remem-

ber well the smile that was noticedover the audience when tall AbrahamLiaco!n was escorted ir. by Orviile H.

Piatt and introduced to the chairmana man hardly five feet in hoight.When Lincoln began his speech, bisarms seemed to be in the way, but hesoon forgot that he had any arms anddelivered one of the most tellingspeeches against slavery I ever heard.He had the faculty of using languagethat a child could understand. His

power to demonstrate was the subjectof much comment in the daily papersthe next day. After he made his

arguments he had a story to tell ti

THE ADVANTAGES OF BELONG-

ING TO THE GRANGE, AN AD-

DRESS MADE BY E. A. PAUR,MASTER OF BETHEL GRANGENO. 164. AT THEIR INSTALLA-TION OF OFFICERS, JANUARY21, 1906.

Friends and patronB, I suppose I havebeen chosen to address you on "TheGrange", "The Advantages of Belong-

ing to the Grange" and "Farming",on the supposition that what a manknows the least of he is the best ableto talk about. Well, I'll try to tuMt toyou about these things anyhow, andlet you judge how much or how littleI know about them. I am not a mem-

ber of very long standing in theGrange, and as a faamer I have noteven planted my first crop of tnrnips.And that is perhaps just as well, as onaccount of the hot weather, last sum-

mer, they would have fallen off thetrees anyhow before they were ripe.Now this is one of the advantages ofbelonging to the Grange, all our oldermembers, who are practical farmers,are able to foretell the weather for sixmonths ahead in any part of the UnitedStates J except Danbury and Bethel.But the way it has been changing here

lately you can't blame them for that.They can also tell you the probablerainfall ane its effect in filling anyreservoir in the country, excepting the

That the electric lights installed

by tne borough for the lighting of the

public thoroughfares are giving thebest of satisfaction in almost everysection, is proven by the manner in

which they are praised by not onlythe citizens of the town, but thosefrom outside as well. In fact it is

claimed by not a few that Bethel is

better lighted at the present timethan many other places much largerin size. While it will undoubtedlybe necessary to readjust a few of the

lights, the majority have been foundto be well placed and to give goodservice. Tne all-nig- ht service is also

something which is especially appre-ciated by everyone.

they have made 1920 pounds and five

ounces of butter besides using whatcream or milk they wanted for theirown use. , Tnese are actual facts andnot a newspaper story. Mr Lakedoes not grain his cows very heavilybut gives the best of care and plentyof hay and grass and milks and feedsthem regularly.

Bethel reservoir. A peculiar factabout the Bethel reservoir is that no

matter what the rainfall, we are al-

ways cautioned not to use so much

water. It seems it never gets reallyfull. This is a frea which it takesmore than a practical farmer to ex-

plain. A practical politician mightbe able to do so, much better. Butto come back to the turnips I didn't

plant. I was informed by a brotherin the Grange that we would have a

very wet summer and that the tur-

nips would probably rot on the

stalks; also as 1 was reliably in-

formed, tlure was lots more money

in chickens and I guess there is. I

know a couple of people living in

dethel, who have put lots of moneyin ehfekens. aitd its in yet. I suppose

they'll never get it out. Anyhow I

decided to invest the money I saved

by not planting turnips in milkchickens. Milk-chicke- are a new

brand of fowl, invented, by LutherBurbmk o: som orner g.'after. Von

know it's awful inconvnient to havea lot of cows standing around eatinga lot of hay at $20 a ton, and takingup a lot of room that would be of

more use as golf links or somethingike ttjat Besides, we need our ba n

now-a-da- to keep our automobilesin. So it seemed to me a bully trans- -

tiosition: to have chickens that would

lay milk," so to speak; particularly as all they were to require for feed

was grass and milk-wee- d, ana we

have lots of that all over the bor-

ough. So I laid in a stock of about100 of these milch-chicken- s; eachchicken will lay only a quart a dayand you need a lot to start a milkroute. Now, I know lots of people inBethel: that's one advantage of

belonging to the Grange; and I fig-

ured out, tliat if some milk-me- n Iknow, could, with threo cows (two of

them dry) supply a milk route of, 50

customers, why shouldn't I, with 100

quarts of milk a day from my chick-

ens and with the help of the brook,be able to supply 200 customers a

day. At 10c a quart that's $20 a dayWhy, tnere's millions in it. I was

going to charge 10c because each cus-

tomer gets guaranteed milk; the milkfrom the same individual cow, orrather chicken, each day. Well, itwasn't a success. Good friends tellme (that's another advantage of be-

longing to the Grange; you'll alwaysfind good friends to tell you about

things, after it is too late) that I

chnse the wroi g breed of fowl. I had

Leghorns, and !iese are to darnedactive, anybov: th'.y used to hop upand down, and on and off theirperches all day. That was the whole

r'il e The n ilk got churned 'roundtoo much and all Ihey would lay v, u,s

hunks of butter; so I gave it up.

There is a rumor out that anothernew hat factory is to be opened inBethel in the near future.

Dr inward Gumbart, head masterof South Nerwalk High school, willdeliver a lecture before the teachersof the public schools and citizens of
