The Boys club has its own distinct
 field In the work of making good citi-
 zens because it seeks its raw material
 in the field of greatest need-the un-
 work organizations. with standardized
 programs and restrictions as 10 age and fee, have made their selections, the Boys club is on the market for all the raw material the community has to offer. Its processes are plan ned to suit the material. it recognizes that the younger boy on the street must have guidance long before he reaches his twelfth year or it may be too late. and its fees are within the reach Of all--the policy of the open door,"
 The New Britain Boys club took on a new lease of life in October, 1928, when Dwight Skinner became the superintendent. All old records having been destroyed the club began to take in new members and on March 10, 1921, the total member ship was ssS--actual registration. while Of course many more noaters had utilized the advantages Of the club. An interesting fact in relation to the preceding paragraph is the fact that So per cent of the membership is under i4 years of age.
 During the past winter the club has developed number of excellent athletic teams. There were i6 basket ball teams in various leagues and in- door baseball teams as well. A Boys club team, "The panthers' are the state champions in tho lso pound class and have won ss out of A con- tests.
 The activities of the club are not at all confined 10 athletics, a fife and drum corps has been organized and ar orchestra as well and both made favorable initial appearance at the Washington birthday party given at the club.
 A number of industrial clubs in connection with Junior Achievement have accomplished 8 great deal. The rlub publishes a monthly newspaper which is printed by the boys and Is entirely self-supporting. \ carpentry .iass is able to do commercial work and has orders 10 nll, ss well as a class in chsir weaving.

 has been appointed advertising man.
 ager of the Yale & ToNne Mfg. Co. at Stamford.
 Mir. Rahm is distinctly a product
 of New Britain. His family had lived here for 40 years before he was born. His education was received here and
 his boyhood and carly manhood were

 pointed to the responsible position an- nounced. After graduating from the
 New Britain high school in 1903. Mir. Rabm entered the employ of r. x F. Corbin AS clerk in the advertising de-
 partment.

Finally the compilation of a catalog was turned over to him. This was in 1910. In putting this cataiog together nc made reputation for himself and later joined the advertising depart nlent of Sargent &. Co. of New Haven.
 Immediately he entered the Sargent service MT. Rahm took charge Of all catalog work. His one big task that still stands as & most creditable &C., compiishment was the compilation and printing of the present 1,eov pass catalog of the Sargent organization.
 After seven years service with ear- gent MT. Rahm went to Yale X Towhe in September. 1922, as assistant ad- vertising manager. In August 1923 Francis Juraschek, advertising rnan- ager, became ill and Mir. Rahm took full charge of the advertising depart- ment. During these months of respon- slbility his work convinced the Yale & ToNne management that he was the right man for biz job.
 MT. Rahm is a member of New Britain lodge of Elks and former of Everyman's Bible Glass. He is also member of the Stamford lodge of the Loyal Order of Moose and is now taking his Masonic degrees in Union Lodge Of Stamford. He is also | charter member of the Stamford of the Hc-Believes-What- he.Says club of that city.
