PALMERTONS HOSTS
TO MANY FRIENDS
Sunnysido Hin Club Members Enjoy
"Tacky' Party-NOvel Features
Enjoyed

The spacious home of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. NJ. Palmerton was the scene of a
very enjoyable party last Thursday
evening when the Neighborly Neigh
bors took possession of it for
tacky' party. About 80 guests en-
joyed the hospitality of these we'll
known entertainers and as they ar
rived there was shown to he a wide
divergence of opinion as to the mean
ing of the word 'tacky," as the cos
tunes ranged all the way from dire
poverty to gross Inconsistency.
The features of the evening were
all of quaint character and guessing
games predomnated. Not the least
amusing was an old-fashioned spell
ing match with Walter Savage as
Stunning the role of Icabod Crane with
all the severity and dignity possible.
Mrs. Guthrie winning the honors by
remaining standing after all others
had failed. After other gam es there
came the call to follow the leader"
and MIR. Palmerton started on a Jour
ney that took all present in single
file through the house, around the
yard, through the darkened base
inland finally upstairs and around
obstacles in darkened rooms, finally
coming out in sections in the parlor.
Photographs of infants were handed
TO the gentlemen and they were told
that each was the picture of some
man present, whose wife would await
his company to supper. This partner
hunting task proved a hard one and
the cause of much merriment, but
when it was finally completed they
We're given "taclty meal consisting
OF dry-bread sandwich a toothpick

to be only a joke, the same as Mr..
Palmerton's smiling invitation to
have tea (sasafrass), and then delic-
ious refreshments We're served, after
which the time was spent with music.
At late hour the guests departed,
unanimously voting Mr.. and Mrs.
Palmerton the best ever"

/ FAMOUS WOMAN
TO LECTURE HERE
,..o Helen Keller, Blind and Deaf
since Infancy, Is Now a Highly
Educated Person

Miss Helen Keller and her teach
Miss Sullivan, now Mrs. John
wacv will lecture in the college au-
s,torium Monday April II at 8
pm.
The story of Helen Keller and her
teacher, Miss Sullivan, is one of the
,oot marvellous educational records
;, modern times. Miss Keller be-
.ore hind and deaf at the age of
10 months, and although she has not
hoon able to use the senses of sight
and hearing since then, she has,
through the most patient and skill
nl teaching of Mrs. Macy, become a
highly educated woman. She was
graduated from Radcliffe College,
the female department of Harvard,
in 1914, receiving the degree of B.
cum laude with honor. 1t
would seem incredible that a person
who practically could never see or
hear should be able to take up high
ar educational studies with marked
distinction and even, as has been the
case, become the author of books.
One Of her books which she wrote in
college, 1.-THE Story of My Life" has
been translated into Is languages.
Mrs. Macy in her lecture will de-
scribe the circumstances which led
to her becoming the teacher of Miss
Keller and will detail the methods
by which she instructed Miss Keller
and thus opened the outside world
to her, which seemed locked forever.
All who have had anything to do
with the training of children realize
how almost superhuman must have
been the task of teaching Miss Keller
to speak for the first time.
Mrs, Macy will demonstrate her
method of communicating with
Miss Keller. These lectures will
prove intensely interesting and in
spring for they show that patience
and ambition can overcome the
greatest obstacles and accomplish
Inc seemingly impossible. The lee
lures will be given under the aus
pceS OF the Simpson NJ. E. church.

TO IMM0RTALIzE
 NAME OF ERWIN
Mayor Names Committee Of Fif-
 teen to Choose Memorial

Acting on a vote of the city cOun- cil, Mayor Quigley has appointed a committee of fifteen to recommend a suitable memorial to the late CorNe- Illus B. Erwin, New Britain's greatest philanthropist. The committee is composed of the original council com mittee which was appointed on peti- tion of the Russell &s Erwin's Fore mans club to change the name of Walnut Hill park to Erwin park as a fitting testim onial to the memory of the man who really did something for the city, but never sought to per- petuate his own name, and ten citi- zen members.
 The new committee is as follows: Councilman E. l.. Teich, Councilman Charles Mueller, Councilman David s. Ohman, Councilman Walter Pohl- man, and Councilman G. M. Landers; Hon. A. J. Sloper, Representative E. w. Christ, George K. Macauley, Tho mas w. O'Connor, Corporation Coun- sel James E. Cooper, William Bur karth, representing Russtll & Erwin s Foreman's club and Judge B. F. Gaff- ney.
 When the council committee was appointed following the Foreman's club petition, it was found on inves- tigation that the name of Walnut Hill park could not be changed without a lot of legal red tape which would take the matter into the state legisla- ture. In addition it was discovered that general opposition existed against the change of name. Walnut Hill park has stood for fifty years and people thought more of the name than anyone suspected. It was then pro- posed to change the name of the New Britain Institute, but that was found to be a knotty problem, too The new committee appears to start with a good working basis, that of g. choice of memorial which has never bore another title and something that will prove memorial in a true sense. It has been proposed to name one of the city parks in honor of MT. Erwin and it is not unlikely that the com mittee will follow this suggestion.

 Youth and Beauty are in the chorus

Wealth tries his hand at inn King Love, but Wealth is an imposter, and Everywoman knows it.
 Then it is New Years Eve on with the gaiety and the life the crowds, the songs, the laugh ter and the cheer. And when the street is cleared, along comes Every woman with her lone companion, Youth weak and weary. In ban quet hall nearby Wealth is wining and dining his friends. After the feast is over he comes out on the street and sees Everywoman, but he does not know her now, with Beauty gone Vice comes along and Wealth goes away with her, the Siren of the streets. And Everywoman's heart is broken. And then old Father Time

COALITION CABINET
 FORMED IN FRANCE
All Opposing Parties and Factions
 Represented in New Ministry

Paris, Oct. BOA new French cabinet, headed by Aristide Briand as premier and minister of foreign af- fairs, came into existence last night.
 According to list which, given out late yesterday afternoon by the Havas News agency, is considered authorita- tive, the ministry will be composed as follows:
 Members of Cabinet.
 Premier and minister of foreign af- fairs-Aristide Briand
 Vice president of the cabinet and minister of state-CharIes De Frey cinet.
 Minister of war-General J. s. Gal lieni.
 Minister of justice-Rene Viviani.
 Minister of the interior-Louis J. Malvy.
 Minister of marine-Rear Admiral Lacaze.
 Minister of finance-Alexandre Ri- bot.
 Minister of public instruction and inventions concerning national de- fece-Professor Paul Painleve.
 Minister of public works-Marcel Sembat
 Minister of commerce-Etienne Clementel
 Minister of colonies-Gaston Dou- mergue
 Minister of agriculture-Jules Me- line.
 Minister of labor-Albert Metin.
 Ministers without portfolio-Emil Combes, Leon Bourgeois, Denys Co., chin and Jules Guesde
 General secretary of ministry of foreign affairs-Jules Cambon.
 Under secretary of state, war and munitions-Albert Thomas.
 Under secretary of state for sub- sistence-Joseph Thierry.
 Under secretary of state for sani- tary service-Justin Godart.
 Under secretary of state for aviation Rene Besnard
 Under secretary of state for marine Louis Neil.
 This is the first time in the history of the French republic that a coali- tion ministry of all the opposing par ties and factions has been formed. It follow closely on the recent innova- ton Of forming a British coalition cablnet Of conservatives and liberals.
 All Parties Unified.
 
 ing the cabinet was the outcome of the deep popular sentiment that party division at the supreme crisis of the war should give way to united action by all the parties in common support of the government. The cabinet of Rene Viviani was representative of only few political groups, and the ministers, therefore, presented their collective resignations. President Poin- care immediately charged Aristide Briand with the formation of a new organization combining all elements. The resulting coalition is remark able in personnel, including such ven erable figures as Charles de Freycin- ct, who was one of Gambetta's aids in the upheavel of 1870; Jules Moline, a former premier, who instituted the l protective system of France and | Leon Bourgeois, who is known as the | Grand Old Man of the Radical Par l ty,' which has the largest membership l in parliament The modern element is represented | by conspicuous leaders of all the po- lltlcal groups of the country. Thus the new coalition brings together Frances

comes and takes away her last vestage of hope, Youth. And while she kneels to pray in front of the Little Church Around the Corner there comes the funeral procession of Youth, with the choir boys chanting and the censors swinging and Charity, the Minister, reading the services. Truth then takes Everywoman back homl where King Love is asleep on the hearthstone, watching and waiting for the wander CT. And Everywoman even without her Youth and Beauty lives happily ever after for Modesty returns to her and Nobody bids adieu.

Be merciful, be just, be fair
 To Everywoman everywhere
 &ter raults are many Nobody's the blame.
 After seeing Walter Browne's won derful allegorical play, Everywoman, who could help being merciful, kind and fair to her, everywhere? What fauits she may possess will be blamed on Nobody. This at least is the con- sensus of opinion among the men who last night saw Everywoman at the Lyceum. A good cast, with Edna Porter In the title role, was greeted by capacity house. Despite long delays between the acts the show nroved to be one of the best morsels pk the present dramatic season. Miss Porter was ideal as Everywoman and her three companions, Youth, Beauty, and Modesty, portrayed respectfully by Hazel O'Brien, Helen Molineau and Frances Simpson, were wonderfully cast.
 George Sydenham more than did justice to the mythical Nobody. Frank Gilday as Bluff and F. J. Nc Carthy as Stuff the stage managers played their parts admirably.
 T<Everywoman is a modern morality play fashioned after those of the six teenth century. It depicts Every woman's pilgrimage in quest of love. Everywoman is in her home, sur- rounded by, her three charming com panions, Youth, Beauty and Modesty, when, looking into her mirror she sees Flattery, who advises her to go to tHe city and look for King Love. Truth interposes and tries to persuade Everywoman not to heed the advise of Flattery. But Everywoman can- not see Truth. Nobody warns her. And she goes her way.
 Then we see Everywoman at re-

elder and younger statesmen, and in pesonnel represents all the history or modern France since the fall of Napo- leon III. The new body also is not able in having the popular military leader, General Gallieni, as the head of the war office and Rear Admiral Lacaze as head of the ministry of marine, both of them replacing civil ians.
 Political Creeds Diverse.
 The extent of the coalition is shown by the following representations from the various parties:
 The Radical party is represented by M. Bourgeois, 8 former premier; M. Combes, a former premier, and Rene Renoult, one of the foremost parlia- mentary leaders of the Radicals
 Tine Republican Socialists have as members M. Briand, M. Viviani and Professor Painleve.
 The Socialist group is represented by Jules Guesde, who has been the So- cialist head since the death of Jean Leon Jaures, and by Marcel Sembat and Albert Thomas, prominent So- cialist leaders.
 The Democratic Left has as mem bers Gabriel Guist'hau and Joseph Thierry while the Radical Left has I;tienne Clementel as its representa- tive.
 The Royalist and Clerical element is represented by Denys Cochin.
 This embraces all the parties and groups in parliament which for years have been arrayed against each other. NM. Freycinet, Meline and Ribot be- long to the old school of moderate tendencies and are not identified with any of the parliamentary groups.
 Foreign Office Innovation.
 Tine designation of Jules Cambon, former Ambassador in Washington, Madrid and Berlin, as secretary gen eral to the minister of foreign affairs is another innovation in the new cab inet, as it places an ambassador of wide experience for the first time in responsible direction of foreign que5- tiOnS.
