These three will listen to suggestions from public officials. private citizens and then will reporS with recommen- dations to tho general cha rter revision committee. This is done on the ground presumably. that it will expedite re- vising the charter and will put an end to the round-and-round-th the mulberry bush discussions that have featured some meetings of revision committees in the past.
 Ii is to be supposed, and sincerely hoped. that members of tho general committee will not be considered as lacking in etiquette or circumspection if they desire to discuss the report of the steering committee" They should be permitted to interrogate the minor committee regarding tho report, and no doubt they will do this very thing.

 If free and open discussions. are to be held the debate will be lengthy, every point being put under the lens, as 1t should be. What, then, will be- come of the steering committees' recommendations?
 Steering committees' are unpopu- lar and have no place in New England which has never found a suitable sub stitute for old-fashioned town meet ing where all citizens are welcome to express their opinions on public af- fairs There is always the danger that such committees will be unable to rid themselves of prejudice against pro- posals with which they were pre- viously not in sympathy especially against projects that are tinged with politics. This is human nature and should not be held against the steer ing committee" although public of ficials are expected to be models of perfection in administering justice in all things.

Boys and girls lin High schools and perhaps the latter bring more in- spiration--ares inclined to give tho athietes of the school all the admira- ton they deserve. And they deserve a lot. Strength. speed and skill in physical form have been the admira- ton of all people. young and old. since time began. That is as it should be.
 But how about the boys and girls who excel in work requiring. per haps. a bit more strength of brain !? How about the school debaters?
 The New Britain High School De- batting club met and decided to ex- tend it's activities this year. With all things new. today is a good time to give bit more of that admira- ton to those who have the brains to construct arguments and to present those argumens in a strong way.

THE GAME.

Why did nearly eighty thousand people go 10 the Yale-Harvard foot ball game today? The natural an- swer is: "To. see it." But is that the correct reply? It Is impossible 10 suggest stati5- | tics as to the number of graduates of either college who weht to Now Hav- en' hoping to sec their Alma Mater triumph. A large percentage, per haps But did even they watch the game play by play7 Did they not. great many of them. wait for the final result and the hoped for cele- hration?
 There are fathers. mothers. broth CTS sisters. wives and sweethearts of boys in college there. They do not watch the game for the sake of en- itself. They enjoyed the. crowds the wonderful sight of such a gather ing in such a structure as the Yale Bowl.
 There are many outsiders. They ED for the excitement of the occasion and because 1t Is good chance to spend their surplus cash with a crowd of attractive and weIl-dressed people.
 There are a few who are such keen enthusiasts over football that they love to watch each detail of the play the passing of the ball. the man. ner in which the punter or drop kicker let's the ball fall from his band and meets it. the run around the end; the dash into the line.
 But the prime motive of the ma jority. it is submitted. will not be to watch the game merely as game. They seek the thrill of the crowd; they seek the excitement of the mo- ment: they seek the keen breath that comes under such circumstances --that drives care from the brain and brings only realization of the joy of living.
 Gt is a good thing to sec a game such as this. It is a good thing to recognize anything that is strong and straight and to receive even indirect ly the regenerating quality that it brings.
 We all need 1t in our lives. We need to direct that energy that finds  Haven. toward every work of life. There was something of this in The war. May we. whether we saw this great game or nor receive some of the human electricity the thought of the sight and aetiea ssnl bring. -

peal that should be needed. It is simply for books and magazines suit able for children. In a card distribut- ed to parents, Superintendent Holmts outlines the need of reading material for the boys and girls of the city. naming the magazines which a. judges tc be proper for young minds to peruSe.
 In a cosmopolitan city like New Britain there must be hundreds ot homes where current magazines for juveniles are never to be found. This is principally because the parents read publications printed in languages other than English and have no oc- casicn to purchase reading material for their children.
 Ii is also true that in hundreds of homes there are magazines galora which are read and either cast aside to become torn, or thrown out It Is easy to save these periodicals and dispose of them by sending them to schools or to school department head quarters where it scertain excellent use will be made of them People haN- ing magazines of this kind should notify the principal of the nearest school.
 A reading habit should be formed while children are in the carly stage of development by supplying them with books of an interesting nature. This habit once formed, is sure to lead to better things. Eventually, it w.li lead, if pursued to children knowing more of the world and its people and of equiping them to take up more serious works and cam their rightful places in life.
