 By establishing such a system more interest would be stimulated among ont citizens in civic affairs, and they would be guided by clear thinking and acting in matters which directly concern themselves. Our citizens would not be apt to be swayed by loud mouthed orators and dema- gogues who take psychological mo- ments to put across their grievances.
 Ward interest would grow so much that the clubs would swell in mem bership. At such ward meetiass the affairs of the ward could be discussed and very good material coad bs found to represent the ward in the city council. The councilme1 would benefit by such interest in knowing the right sentiments of their constft0- ents. .-..se,

DON'T MISS ANYTHING.

Many years ago a small lad liked | to go to shows as small lads enjoy l doing today. He happened to have a | father who could well afford to send
 him to shows" The father was wise: he looked ahead many years. He wanted to indulge his son, but he
 wanted also to do it in a way that
 would bring future satisfaction to the
 small boy.
 The father. therefore. never wait cd until the son asked to go to a
 show" The father would notice in the paper that some great actor or actress was to appear in some play, or that some great musician might be heard at the moment. So he would call his small son. give him enough money. and send or take him to see or hear one of these great people.
 No musician or actor. except the occasional infant progidy, becomes great until we'll along in life. It was not many years after this small son had seen many of them that the greatest of them passed from the stage. some into the great Beyond.
 That little fellow is a middle aged man now, and some of his most pleas- ant memories are those connected with the wonderful actors and musi- clans he has seen-whom he saw years ago.
 
 and few great musicians. Soon those whose names are famous now will be replaced by others. Men and women of today would like. in after years, to be able to recall that they have seen them. Today is the time to do it If one is able. Young and old should take advantage of every opportunity offered to see and hear the great men and women of this day. Tn public life there are many. but these men do the men and women of the stage | or the concert hall.
 There. are opportunities offered | now and then in New Britain to see or hear someone worth while-some- one who. years hence. will be talked | of as wonderful. It will be a pleas ure to be able to compare them with | the next generation of performers and artists.
 The illness of Caruso has brought | regret to many that they never heard him. Ho may sing again and his sickness will bring greater popularit for people will realize what they might have missed had he died. Per haps Martinelli. who appeared in New Britain recently. will occupy some such position. Perhaps. years from now, when he has passed from the public view. we will be glad that we hoard him.
 Other great performers will come 10 New Britain. If would be we'll for people to hear them. not only for the pleasure of the moment. but for the it will bring hereafter.
