Not that we think there is much chance of
thing like that happening. But then strange
things have happened in Democratic political
conventions before. 1t would not be nearly so
strange as the nomination Of Horace Greeley
for president by Democratic national conven-
ton, many years ago. The vote in the Michigan
Democratic primaries for Herbert Hoover will
at least add to the interest of the presidential
campaign from now on. With Governor Ed

HASKIN LETTER
PAINT UPl
BY FREDERIC ]. HASKIN

The painting season is on. II you
haven't already felt hankering after
overalls, brush, and bucket Of paint
you probably will soon.
The painting urge is good example
of natures efficiency. You don't feel
an overwhelming desire to spruce things
up at Christmas or Fourth of July
Maybe your subconscious mind knows
that paint freezes in winter and dries
too quickly in hot weather. Or maybe
it doesn't. Either way, spring is tht
time when you notice that the house
looks shabby beside the rejuvenated
lilac bush, and that the iron frog foun'
tain is shabby in spots.
The aesthetic value of paint IS not
however, its most important quality. AS
some one has euphoniously put it. paint
is primarily for protection. Paint is de-
fined as a chemical combination Of ma
terials which prevents rust or decay
Tests show that decay Of structural ma
terial sometimes begins after only "a
hours of exposure to the weather.
Manufacturers say that lack Of paint
than fire. Whether this claim can be re.
Certainly houses in every community
fall into decay through lack Of surface
protection, and much iron machinery de.
| teriorates from the same cause.
The situation is made worse at pres
ent by the fact that labor is expensive
and scarce, and paint is from one hun.
dred to two hundred per cent higher
than before the war. The department
of agriculture has no influence on pain,
prices, but it makes the suggestion tina,
labor is three fourths of the cost Of .
painting job, and that, while painting
may be fine art, the layman can &c,
satisfactory results himself on jot
which presents no unusual difficulties
The first rule, naturally, Is to find out
what needs fresh coat. Cracking
scaling, or an abrased surface are signs
that the paint no longer protects the
| material. SO that moisture easily pene.
trates the cracks, and decay results
With wood paint materials and careful
| workmanship, the outside Of house
| needs renovating once in three or foul
years. Life of paint on the inside de.
pends largely on local conditions, suct
as care of property and the climate.
If the outside of house is to be done
over, it is a good idea to look arount
your community, ana especially your
neighborhood, before selecting colors. i
you live in city brick row, this prob
ably does not concern you, but for sub
urbanites, and dwellers in wood, con
! crete and stone houses, finding the righ
color scheme is often difficult.
In Garden cities the color and plaI
of every house must be approved by .
local committee on architecture. but i,
most communities no standard is re
quired, and the desire to brighten VI
the place often results in every house
The effect in these cases is more start
ling than resttul.
< rood color can make an ugly resi-
dence attractive, or at least inconspicu
aus, while the wrong shade or too man!
shades often ruin an otherwise vel
blamed house. Brick red is, curiousl!
enough, the most unobtrusSSe color TO-
a building. Green and brown are us
J ually good, brown being warmer, an

ENLIsTs RECRUIT FOR
 SERVICE IN NAVY

The latest recruit signed up for Uncle Sans navy at the local re- cruiting station in the Shannon building is Benjamin O. Burns.
 In conversation with Chiefs Bor- chert and Clifford he expressed de- sir to learn 8 trade that would be Of benefit to him in civil life. He was signed up for aviation mechanic and will be sent to the aviation me- chanic school at Great Lakes, Chi cago, H.. where his desires will be fulfilled.
 If man takes interest in his school work a great field is open to. him which will give him, unlimited op- portunity for knowledge and promo tion, either in the service or civil life. Some of the greatest scientists of the age engaged in airplane works during the war have reorgan- ized the great possibilities for ad- vancement in this science and are bending every effort towards it's de- velopment. Many of these men give their services exclusively to the gov ernment and as soon as new ideas or inventions are brought out by them the Navy department is among the first to make use of the improved apparatus and thus the naval aviation men's knowledge is always kept ur to date.

NoRWfSH PRINTERS TO BE
 GUESTS IN NEW LONDON

Members of Norwich Typographical Union, No. 100, are to be the guests of the New London Typographical Union No. 159. at pink tea" in Temperance hall, New London. this (Saturday) evening. In the; olden days before the July Thirst a pink tea" was an unknown animal to a printer but now that the arid drought has struck the craft pink teas" are in vogue.
 The programme as outlined by the New London brothers includes many features, perhaps the most promi- neIft being the bowling match be- tween the local team and the New London boys. While the Norwich printers are fully aware of the prow- ess of their opponents they are con ffdent that they are just good enough to be a little bit faster. Not that we wish to praise ourselves, but 1t Is g case of give credit where credit Is due. The names of those who are to compose the team is enough to guarantee victory. They are: Joe Sul- livan, Bill Auburn, Bert Gallivan, Chuck Riordan, Reg Pardy and George Neibert, all men with ave- rages of 95 or bet and besides they are old timers at the game.
 The editorial force of The Bulle- tin who are also invited to attend are | not in a class with the printers as bowlers but yet the sporting depart ment of the sheet is desirous of try l ing out their ability as pin smashers 1 against the sporting department of the New London papers. We do here l by challenge any two men of the i sporting departments of the New London publications to contest 1 Our two men are only mediocre bowl 1 CTS, but we think we are little bet. l ter than the New London boys w ] won't mention their names for they
 have state wide reputation and W, don't want to put the element of fea
 into the hearts of our brother scr 'bes
 Our champion bowler has recent,
 suffered an injury to his right arn but is willing to challenge any right
 handed bowler to left-handed matcl
 but it must be distinctly understood
 that the New London boys are not t.
 ring in any ambidextrous men.

AT THE DAVIS THEATRE. Faust" by Boston English Opera Go

The Boston English Opera Company played return date at the Davis theatre Friday night before a capaci- ty house, presented Gounod's Faust with Leonard Sanford as Faust" and Hazel Eden as "Marguerita." It was anced cast, musically and in histrionic talent, as has won plaudits for the company on its tour and the Norwich audience was slow to appreciate the artists and give them their mead of applause.
 The fine orchestra under capable leadership gave admirable support and the scenic effects were entirely ade- quate.
 Miss Eden increased the good i'm pression she made here in her appear ance in Robin Hood" as lyric so- prano, disclosing. clear. sweet voice, admirable in ennunciation. She sang easily and naturally throughout and scored strongly in her coloratura work and the handling of her high notes. The Jewel Song in the third act. the duet with Faust and the 1 duet in the prison scene brought her | Carley as "Siebel" sang and acted ! with expressiveness that showed her 1 talent. As Valentine" the singing and acting of Stanley Deacon shared the honors with the impressive work of Harold J Geis az Mephistopheles. Mir. Deacon has rich baratone which he used very effectively and made him one of the favorites with the audience and Mir. Geis was admirably fitted in voice and physical qualifications for his conception of the character of the arch fiend. His mocking serenade song was a vivid piece of expressive sing ing. One jarring note in the whole production was the assignment Of the part of Faust" to Mir. Sanford. He
 apparently failed to rise to a concep-
 tion of the emotional requirements
 and his tenor was disappointingly
 lacking in fexibility or the possibili.
 ties of portraying feeling. A tenor whc
 glances off into the wings or into tn,
 flies or casts an eye out to the hous,
 in the midst of an emotional duet witl
 the heroine in his arms would SC en
 to show little thought of the artisti
 effect he was trying to convey. The chorus numbers were sung witt
 harmonious effect and the Soldiers chorus especially was given with fine swing and martial dash.
 Norwich will always be glad to wei : come the Boston English Opera Cc . for any future performances here.
