TIGER" RESTING UP FOR SPEECH
 IN WASHINGTON

Washington, Dec. 7-Rising a little later than his usual habit after the strenuous day of yesterday and a night address which kept him up late, Georges Clemenceau today faced a comparative luu in his program. Luncheon with President Harding at the White House at 1:3O o'clock was the only scheduled event for the day.
 Whether his capacity for sight see ing would continue to keep the Tiger day of his visit here or whether he would take advantage of the easier program to rest and point for the concluding and important speech to- morrow before the conference of pub lie opinion on world peace he was apparently letting the day decide.
 Announced as the only formal" address on his program here, Clennen- ceau was understood to be reserving the high spots of his argument for American cooperation with French leave the capital almost immetfia tely after conc1u ding his address for Phil- adelphia, delivering another there Saturday, and moving on 1efsurely to Chicago for his final speech there, Mon day.
 The Tiger wound up a crowded day yesterday. which included a quarter of an hour with former President Wilson, described by M. C1en as a, meeting of the utmost cordiauty and affection, with an address last Continental Memorial Hall. delivered as a message to the South after being obliged to cancel his trip to that sec. ton,

FELL" AND 'JAkE" DINE
 40 SCRIBES

About forty newspaper men of this cIty last night attended a dinner given Tn their honor at the Hotel Lincoln, 79-81 Gold street. The dinner mark ed the formal opening of that hoste1ry formerly known as the Alpine hotel, and was given by the new proprietors, "BiIP' Hogan and his partner, Jake Former Senator George B. Clark, owner of the Bridgeport Star, was toastmaSter of the evening, and re- viewed briefly the history of Chris tianity. Alderman Eugene Kelly gave an interesting account of the nebular hypothesis and George Firstbrook, sporting editor of the Times, gave a delightful description of Einsteins missed the corncob pipe he usually smokes but they didn't miss it as much as George.
 James McGoveIn, Jr., of the Times, rope and h0g-tie police news, gave readings from Gates Ajar.'' A plan to prevent jail escapes at the Fair field County jail was advanced by Bill kearnS, court reporter of the Times. Bill would break the legs of every prisoner arriving at the jail. All the speechmak1ng was of the same high order.
 Rowe of the Times staff is known, said he would not again be a candi- date for office unless his friends in sisted.
 
 Dad Barber, Sunday Herald carto on- ist, and Joe Masterson, Charles Stew ems, Robert J ones and Nicholas Lucia of the Star. Everybody spoke, God help us, they all spoke!
 Editor Richard Howell of the Sum- day Herald, made the only sensible talk of the evening when he bemoan- ed te fact the younger newspapermen of the city have no place in which to foregather for an exchange of Opinions and experiences and he sug- gested the Lincoln hotel would be suitable for the purpose.
 The Lincoln would be admirable for that or any other purpose. It is a cosy, intimate, homelike little house which has been remodeIed through out at considerable expense and which tecause of it's central location, its service, and it's mana cement, should become at once the most popular of the smaller hotels in the city.
 Host 'tBilP' Hogan has had con- siderable experience in the hotel and restaurant business and so has his partner ''Jake''-for no one ever re- fers to him other than just Jake
 The 1atters kitchen Is as spotless as the first snowfall and his cooking is pure poetry. A faultless dinner, faultlessly served, was given the newspaper men at this the first housewarming of this new hosteIry. and unless all signs fail, the Lincoln Hotel, under it's new management, is going to fill a Iong-fe1t need in this community and to prosper.

DR. COON ENDORSES
 CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE

Dr. William H. Coon, Local Health Officer. In endorsing the Christmas Seal Sale praises tuberculosis work of Visiting Nurse Association. He has said:
 While we are waiting for that day in which we will have done away with some of those diseases which now afflict mankind, we must make provision for the care of those who are now i'll and suffering. Chief among the scourges respon- sible for untold suffering and misery is Tuberculosis, the Great White Plague so called, which takes it's toll in thousands of human lives from all countries and nations even as it takes i toll from those around Us in our own community.
 Few diseases from which man suffers cause so prolonged a period of sickness, inactivity, misery and suffering. so prolonged that the proper care of those i'll with tuber- c'llosts becomes at once a serious and often impossible burden for it's unfor- tun9te victim to assume. For those who cannot care for thepselves, care must be given, es- pecialIy that care and attention which can alone be given by the trained nurse. The trained nurse can and does do much to relieve pain and suffering, to tighten the burdens of ] the afflicted and to bring comfort where except for her presence there would be misery and despair.
 Flew agencies concerned in the
 
 of those afflicted with it render greater or more valuable service than does our Visiting Nurse Association through which S5 per cent of the fund collected from the Christmas seaI sale is spent in combating this disease in our own city. How val uabEa the work of this organization is few realizes. Going about quietly but efficiently. daily it brings cheer and comfort and the invaluable ne- cessities of nursing care to those who except for its work would be wanting he help it brings
 Surely the Visiting Nurse Associa- ton is a community asset and a help in tinEe of need, deserving the CO., operation and support of all who are interested in the health and welfare of our city,
 One of the most grateful and en- 1 thusiastic packers of the anti -tuber- cu1osis movement is Christy Mathew son, recently discharged after a, long and rigorous course 0f treatment at Saranac Lake, one of the oldest and largest tuberculosis sanitariums in the country. A moving picture show ing his winning fight with the disease is being brought to Bridgeport by Mrs. Elmer Ravens, and will be ex- hibited from the time of it's arrival until Christmas

DISPUTING THE RECORD

Any contest that the Democrats
may put up in the fall elections will
be confined to disputing the public
record. The Republicans have saved
hundreds Of millions Of dollars. re-
duced taxation. cut the national
debt, reduced the number OF Federal
employees. raised the market price
of Liberty Bonds, put the govern
ment on a business basis. and made
the most remarkable showing for
general efficiency of n admins
tration in the history OF the coun,
try. The Democrats nay question
the record but there is ample proof
for every item in it.
