We'll he tells me-he has a car you know i he tells Hse that girls just flock after him. Why, he told me a week ago that if he could ever find a girl that didn't run after him, one that made him do the running and run hard, he'd camp right on her trail until he had her fast by a diamond circlet because he'd know that she wouldn't be off flirting and coquet- ting with some other man when he was out of sight. Why, he says-" l Pooh" said the girl in the dolman. Ines an exception and I've no doubt he i just forces his attentions on girls until 1 they accept rather than hurt his feel ] ings."

MAYOR CLAIMS POPULATION 1 OF BOSTON IS se1 e7e

Boston. Nov. IA population of SOL 67s for this city, instead of 747,s23 as announced by federal eensus-takers, was claimed by Mayor Peters today in let ter to Samuel L. Rogers. director of the census, requesting that a new federal census be ordered here.
 Frigid weather, which made it difl- cult for canvassers to get about when the census was taken, and a panicky feeling among foreign-born people over the search for radicals which caused them to withhold information, were among te explanations advanced by the mayor for alleged errors in the federal enumeration which, he claimed omitted 2.eae persons in one ward and showed decrease of 14.000 in another Eleven wards as reported in the fed eral figures showed a decrease in popu latien as compared with the state cen sns of 1915, a falling off which tn, mayor termed impossible. Records show ing an excess. of births over deaths, al l increase in foreign-bern inhabitants gains shown by the annual police cen sus and other figures were cited to show that the census as announced was in CT TOT.

spector.
 Much retardation. is due to poor at tendance. The child may stay out of school because of his own illness or that of some other member of his family. A considerable amount of this might be prevented with proper health supervision and good social or nursing service. Again the child may stay to buy suitable cloth ing, or simply careIessly neglect to send him. Here, also, is a fruitful field for social service
 certain amount of retardation is wholly the fault of the school It may be the result of poor teaching or a badly arranged cirriculum. The location of the school may be to blame. as it is hard fo1 children to travel long distances over bad roads in sever weather. This is one oi the strong arguments for consolidation tien of schools to which the children eeulG be transported and where they could re eeive better grade of instruction at tht hands of better teachers in a more suit able school building

Necessary to Elect Brandegee. (Previdence Journal)

The women voters of Connecticut must not lose sight of the fact that Senater Brandegee represents first on all thoreughgoing opposition to the Wilson scheme for supsr-government at Gene va. He stands for American iHdepend- ence, for a free republic, and against the unprecedented White House domination
 that has created such intense dissa tisfac-
 tion throughout the country-among dem
 ocrats as well as republicans The we- men of Connecticut should understand that it is necessary 10 elect not only a republican president, but a republican
 senate, in order to complete the rebuke of Wilsonism, and that the republican
 majority in the upper branch of congress consists at present of the narrow mar gin of two.
 In these circumstances whatever re- i sentiment may be felt regarding MT. Bran degee's attitude toward the woman sui frage and prohibition in the past should 1 be put aside and attention eoneentra ted 1 on the one live issue. Mir. Brandeges i should be returned to the senate becaus, 1 he has gained an invaluable experience
 in public affairs.

GET OUT AND VOTE.

Bigger troubles than ever face the election officials this year because of the large and sudden increase in the nnm- Der of voters through the extension of suffrage to women.
 It is impossible to lay too much stress upon the importance of getting out to vote, or of getting out to vote early. There is duty you owe to yourself, your neighhor, your state and your country which you ought to discharge and dis charge right. Don't be numbered among the stay-at-homes. If you are physi- cally able to get to the pells early. Il you are not the republican town commit. tee will be glad to furnish conveyanc, for you
 Remember that In order to accomme date all the voters every effert should b, made to get to the polls before the latt afternoon hours. If properly distributed even in the big central district, all car be taken care of, but if the great bu1l of the voters should wait until the lat hours or the last minute there ia thu danger of disfranehisement which shoulc be carefully avoided.

THE GROWING CHILD
By tn. U. S. Public Health Service
RetadatieH.

Many children are retarded. who are quite normal mentally. The &lild with defective vision or hearing is very apt to fall behind his class because he fails to see or hear many things which the other children learn through sight or hearing. If he has obstructed breathing due te adenoids, the sluggishness and inability to concentrate his attention may be partly responsible for his faiinre to make satis- factory progress. Defective teeth may possibly react on his health and ire auently do keep him home because of teethache. In many cases, malnutrition may be one of the causes of retarda ton.
 The physical defects enumerated do not in every case cause retardation, pu' tthey were so often associated with il that their recognition and correction are impera lively demanded. The cost of re- tarda ton that might be prevented in this way would more than pay for medica inspection of schools, and no school sys tenn can afford, from the point of view e economy, to be without it's medical in

Brandesee Needed at This Period.

Broadnindness leads Mr. Taft to sup port Senator Brandegee for reelection Viewing his duty as a citizen from a personal standpoint, he is not without 9 warrant 10 oppose MT. Brandegee. MT. Brandegee transsressed the rules of par liamentary debate in discussing Mir. Taft But Mr Taft prefers to consider MT. Brandegee as an instrument or agency needed at this period in the history of the country, an instrument or agency more sure to direct the nation in the right way than his es1onent, Mir Loaergan This is view with regard to the league of nations and Mir. BrandegNe's candidacy that can proftably be studied by those who want to get even with him and who, in addition want America to enter the league.

Should Know Where LonerEan Stands.
 (Hartferd Courant)

Augustine Lonergan, the democratic candidate for senator, voted, like MT. Brandegee, against the woman suffrage amendment, and was censursd by Connec- ticut suffragists in 1918 for his 'Eeac- tionary' stand.
 "The public has right to know why Lonergan voted against the prohibition amendment It has a right to know why
 he oppolsd the Volstead Endorsement act It has a right to know why he didn't have the courage to stand up and vote
 when the house passed the Volstead act over the presidents veto"
Norwich bulletin., 1920-11-02

It is claimed for MT. Lonergan that he always voted right on questions of social and economic importance. When it came to passing the Volstead act over the presidents veto he didn't even vote. He tucked because he didn't dare to go con tFary to the president.
