SEES BETTER TIMES
 AHEAD FOR PUTNAM
George B. Chandler Says Pres ent Industrial Depression
 Is But Temporary
Lauds Putnam State Officials In Ad-
 dress Here Monday

Words of encouragement for Put nam, in its present transition period of industrial depression. were spoken with that conviction that comes with wide experience, by George B. Chan dler, secretary of the State Chamber of Commerce, when he addressed the members of Putnam Chamber of Com merce at their monthly meeting and dinner Monday evening at the Putnam Inn.
 Mir. Chandler said: ''I am told that Putnam is not enjoying it's usual in dustrisl prosperity at just this time. Perhaps word from an outsider will be helpful ard buoying to those who may be bit discouraged.
 Mills north and south of you are operating. Some perhaps not 100 per cent capacity, others at top speed. The textile industry in Connecticut and New England, generally speaking, is prosperous. So much for general con diticns.
 Depression Won't Last
 This depression in Putnam is but an incident to the future development of Putnam. Your city is in an eddy, as it were, in the prosperous textile stream of industry. 1t cannot long re- main there. IL will soon be swept back into the stream and will then become the prosperous, contented, growing city for which 1t is known. You have the cheap power here. You have the skilled help. The city is just the right size for complete enjoyment, and you have the advantages of good schools, churches and amusement places. Put nam can't help but go ahead"
 Speaking on This Connecticut of Ours" Mir. Chandler painted glow ing word picture of the scenic gran deur, industrial superiority and gener- al far flung leadership of this state over all others In the union. His ad- dress served to quicken interest in the beautiful vistas and panoramic won ders that one may feast the eyes on in touring Connecticut-beauties eqnalled perhaps, but not surpassed in any state of the union, he declared.
 Connecticut Leads World
 His scrutiny of the manufacturing carried on in Connecticut proved to his audience the world leadership the state enjoys in this respect. He out lined the growth of the state in points of population and prosperity, the lat ter as represented in bank deposits, and here again he made his hearers more contented than ever that they were residents of the Nutmeg State.
 Before closing his address Mir. Chan dler paid tribute to Luther NJ. Keith of Putnam for the excellent services he rendered his state as chairman of the House appropriations committee of the state legislature during the last ses- sion. Mir. Chandler also lauded Byron D. Bugbee for the work he had done as a member of the State Board of fl- nance.
 Mir. Chandler gave his address toi- lowing the serving of an excellent din- ner. President Newton A. Vaughn acted as toastmaster.

 From the rich background of experience with all of its unequallcd manufac- turing facilities and inspired by . deep sense of personal obligation to Buick friends, owners and the general public Buick will seek ever to maintain on an even higher level the confidence of the public which it now enjoys.

CHILDREN START FIRE
Hen Coop Owned by Maurice Bravo
 Is Somewhat Damaged

Children at play with matches are held responsible for the fire that parti- ally destroyed, on Friday afternoon. the small hencoop on the property of Maurice Bravo, Wilkinson street. The sounding of Box 23 brought the fire apparatus. The flames were quickly quenched and the coop was only partially burned. As there were no hens in the structure, there were no casualties.

Planning For Open Night"


 The Trade school plans to have it's annual open night some time the iat- ter part of March, when the public will be invited to inspect the various departments while in operation and examine the quality of instruction giv- en as evidenced by work performed.
 Machine department instruction Is at the present time eentering about a new type of machine being designed and built by the school. The students hope 1t will meet the need for which II was designed, and they are getting ex- eellent experience in it's construction.
 Students from all departments are benefiting very materially Tn the splendidly selected academic subjects applying to their particular trades in mathematics, technical knowledge, and drawing, as provided by the drafting department. Here the carpentry boy gets mathematics as applied in his particular trade-such as estimating amount of materials from construction drawing, finding costs of materials and working out problems met with Tn va rious types of carpentry construction. Electrical students are instructed in drawing on electrical apparatus ss
  ance with the trade practices. Ma chine students are instructed Tn de signing of tools, machine parts and general machine design, the aim being to make each academic study contrib ute toward the general development of an all-round mechanic.
 Instruetors Have Meetings
 Instructors meetings are held ire quently at the school, meeting being scheduled for the afternoon of Jan. 25, at which time the following sub jects will be discussed: Job planning, from expense orders and production orders; attendance; effect on depart ment cost of training, developing con fidence and initiative in the student. These meetings provide an opportuni- ty for the exchange of ideas and are very beneficial from the standpoint of co-ordinating department methods and make for cooperation of all the facm- ty in the interest of the student.
 During the last fifty years develop ment of high specialization methods has given us the highly skilled oper- ator in one or two processes or sub-di- visions of trade. While this has been of inestimable value in the light of greater production and lessened cost of commodities 1t has tended to de- crease the amount of trade knowledge represented by all members Of the crafts. The school believes In enlarg- ing and developing as fully as possible trade knowledge to the extent of it's utility. thereby preserving fuller knowledge and processes of the trades
