Blessings sometimes come in dis glIise. A short time ago the majority of people were opposed 10 allowing ing the Connecticut company to install a spur track for the accommodation Of extra cars on its property west of the car barn on Chestnut street. In public and private the project was denounc- ed.
 The Observer rambled' along Chest nut street yesterday afternoon and was surprised at the change that had been made. The spur track is in posi- ton, occupying space that, until re- gently, was an eyesore to passers-by: being filled with conglomeration of rusty rails. discarded running gear from trolley cars, junk of all kinds. thrown in in haphazard fashion, the whole only partly concealed by growth of dusty weeds and grass. In- stead of this untidy mess, there now appears level area of sand, neat and orderly and unscarred with rusty junk, on which are laid the rails for the spur.
 As the Observer stopped and scratched his head in surprise, Supt. Bill Bryan stepped out of his office. and asked What do yoNfhiuk If it." and the reply was "Strke me pink. Bin, I thawt was in Elizabeth Pawk".

court-namely, by entering it as it
 now exists. Thus these suspicious
 persons will say, there would be no
 possibility of the United States get
 ting into world affairs at all. The ad- vocates of the Pepper plan would stick 10 it, they will say, and the support CTS of the president would fight against it and advocate the only pos sible plan, that proposed now by President Coolidge. They will have us believe that all is hypocrisy-all in- tended to defeat any action tending 0 have this country take it's place among the other nations of the world in movement that certainly looks toward a greater universal understanding.
 We refuse to believe that presi- dent of the United States, speaking on that solemn day when we honor the memory of our dead who have fought and died, would resort to political trickery. We believe that President Coolidge, knowing the uselessness of the Lodge and the Pepper plans, comes out solemnly and declares for the only feasible plan for our entry into the World Court. Anf if we have judged him rightly, he is 10 be ad- mired for his position on this, possibly the most important matter now before the country.

One Of Her Daily Dozen

The stenographcr was new at the job. Her boss was writing to the president of great university, and was trying to make his language be- cominely important. In the course Of his dietation he told the college pres idcnt that he expected 10 be in the diversity town within few days, and added: 'I should like very much to Visit your domicile."
 The typist, reading her hierogly- phics as she transcribed, was not the sort 10 heckle a man over syllable or two. When the letter was presented for signing, tho boss found himself telling the college president: "l should like very much to visit your dumb asylum"

l battlefield. Were a structurc erected for the benefit of the eX-service men, the day would come when there were no former service men living. What would the building be then? \ public library, while not true memorial in the sense that a monument would be, would benefit children, men and women yet unborn.
 And we turn to the second. com munication, carrying out the idea eX- pressed by one speaker, or two, at the recent mceting-the idea that the mother of the boy who died longs to have his name perpetuated as long as work of mems hands may last.
 "I am only private's mother" she writes to the Worcester Telegram, and not even that now he is killed" Mother. if am killed" he used to say to her to cheer her in her grief that he was to go to war, T will leave my name for you to look at on some monument like the one on the Common Then won't you be proud Of me ?" Now his mother wants his name on a monument and not on the wall of a building Who. in going in and coming out of that building in years to come will remember why it was built. They won't care" And then, ending this mothers plea as mothers have spoken to those interested in having a true memorial in this city, she adds: Tt would be nice to have the monument stand where all parades pass by il; '" where mothers can see it. can stand beside il, touch it and know their boy helped place it there. I have no grave to visit. Please give me this much"
 Sincerely. earnestly, members of the memorial committee longed to give the mothers this much"

COMMON COUNCIL,

The special meeting Of the com
 mon council Thursday evening pre-
 sented points of interest in their thco-
 retical aspect. Possibly the first is | Mayor Paonesss's s action in asking the council to do certain things instead
 of vetoing resolutions passed by it. This attitude displays a desire to CO., operate in friendly spirit and was received by the council in the spirit in which it was evidently intended, The impression which resulted was that the mayor and members of the council had gathered together free from faetional prejudice, to act in the best interest of the city. It was good to see.
 The mayor urged that no garages be erected within 200 feet Of a church instead of within 100 feet, as the rule formerly was before reconsideration Thursday evening. Councilman Nair, chairman Of the ordinance commit tee, believes that possibly there should be a different rule for the business section from one which will hold in regard 10 the residential sections. It
 is quite probable that practical ad- vantage may be gained as result of tha reconsideration, af tna asked by the mayor, and from Coun- cilman Nairs somewhat original idea. In this connection it will be remem- bered that one Of the clergymen of the city, unless WIG arc mistaken, has stated that it is only during church service hours the garages nearness becomes objectionable. A rule re- garding closing them at such times, strictly enforced, might aid in the so-
 ution of this vexing problem, if they are near a church.
 The common council acted favor ably upon the recommendation of the board Of public works in awarding contract for trunk sewer, although there were some reasons ad- vanced why another firm should be given the job. Following the recom- mendations of a board in regard 10 a matter especially within it's jurisdic- 1 iion is proper habit 10 cultivate, i especially as in a case like the one i presented Thursday night where there | seemed to be good reasons for giv- | ing the work to either Of the two bid- , dcrs. The board Of public works, as with every other board. has some reason for making certain recom- and in the absence of . special information by members Of 1 the council why such recommendation should be voted down, the board should be supported.
 Altogether the session of the council Thursday evening was the sort Of meeting people Eho care for the well fare of New Britain would like 10 sec habitually.

< MEAN ADVANTAGE

It is reported that friends of Gov
 Al Smith, of New York. are thinking
 of trying to get Mrs. Charles Dana
 Gibson, sister of Lady Astor and wife
 nomination for the democratic can
 didate for the presidency Now this
 would be taking an unfair advantage
 Of the other candidates. Only those
 who know the charm of Mrs. Gibson
 are able to appreciate how mean an advantage it would be. True, Mrs. Gib- son Is no longer in her early youth, 1 but the delightful warmth of her gracious personality which made her ! the center of attraction wherever she went in the days when she was a girl in Now York is still hers, and--well, there would be nothing to it, that's all.
 The hardest boiled politician would button up his frock coat thrust one hand in the opening just over his heart. bow low and, with eyes cast in | the direction of Mrs. Gibson. loudly
 cast his vote for Al in the hope that
 he would win an approving smile from her
 ! lt isn't fair that's that With, the
 picking between many excellent candi-
 dates so difficult it isn't fair to inject into the convention any influence not associated with hard, cold facts. And hard, cold facts are the last things q man would think Of upon hearing Mrs. Gibson's voice gently raised in com mcndatinn Of the bad one himself only she would never speak in favor of that ever-present, insistcnt person.
 We have no desire to make unjust accusations against Al ar anybody else, but it is just like the man who refused 10 become Murphy's candidate for governor Of the state Of New York if Hurst was 10 run on the same ticket for United states senator. to allow his warm heart 10 be inclined toward ask ing Mrs. Gibson 10 do that very little thing-second his nomination. And fl would be just like the lady herself 10 allow her admiration for man who is "or the people although arisfocracy is evident in every action of her. 10 induce her to help him 10 inc candidacy Tor the highest office in the world. when she believes thai hs has made good out Of humble be- ginninEs
 We hope thc convention will make its nomination uninnuenced by senii- ment. but VIC despair Of that situation arising if Mrs. Gibson seconds Gov. Smiths nomination. The idea was a daring one. but then. you know. None but the brave deserve Inc fsit." Al smiths courage has never been qucs- ionod. Again. that, ss you might say, is that.
