FOREMENS COURSE AT TRADE SCHOOL
Institution to Turn Out Instruc-
 tors as Well as Graduates

Something unique in the, history of trade school training according to Director Herman s. Hall is a course in foremanship now being off, fered by the New Britain State Trade school. This course is offered in connection with the Normal school training for instruction Of craftsmanship.
 In order for man to qualify for the course in foremanship and trade instructor he must have had at least seven years experience in his chosen vocation and while not always en- tirely essential should have some thing equivalent to a high school education.
 Another qualification, which while not insisted upon, is found to be i'm portant is that the men should be lover of boys, Boy Scout leaders it is said make the best instructors.
 Enrollments in this class are limited according to Mir. Hall and can be received for a short time only, No charge is made for in- struction and the school now has opening for instructor students in the building trades and printing trade. More applicants for the loremanship course in draftsman- ship mechanics, and shop trade are being received than the school can handle, These courses are given in the evening and upon completion of the course the graduate if he pre- fers to follow up trade school teach ing rathan than a regular foreman ship can qualify for that position.
 The New Britain trade school has placed instructors in 22 different vo- cational training institutions, includ- ing all of the New England states, New York, Pennsylcvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio and at least one in Chicago.

Explains Purpose of
 College Scholarship

At the high school assembly this morning, Mrs. Douglas A. Johnston president of the New Britain College club, spoke to the girls of both buildings on the subject of the scholarship which is given yearly hF the College club to some member of the graduating class, to assist her in going to college. It has happened in years past, that girls have had no idea that they could go to college until the possibility of winning the scholarship was presented to them. Every girl who has ever held the College club scholarship has won other scholarships in the college to which she has gone, and thus the way has been paved for her to gain a higher education, which otherwise would have been impossible.
 Miss Agnes Johnston, chairman of the scholarship committee, then pre- sented the idea of forming among the girls of the high school, a Junior College club, the purpose of which would be to strengthen the interest of girls in going to college, and to awaken in others the desire to go, and to present to the girls oppor- tunities open to all who desire a col- lege education.
 The first meeting of the Junior College club wal held this afternoon at the school. Members of this group are to assist the New Britain College club at their bridge and Nah Jong party at the Shuttle Mea- dow club this Thursday afternoon.

Last week was the stiffest of the nominee's trip. It included 72 speeches as compared with "A the previous week, but the night ad- dresses were in the larger cities, and the audiences in Syracuse, Buff falo and Rochester especially were Of such proportions as 10 cause a much greater strain on his voice than the average meeting.

LEAGUE IS SURE
 ID TAKE UP ISSUE
British-7urkish Dispute Will
 Be Considered
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 Geneva, Oct. 20.-Officials of the league Of nations announced today that sufficient number of favorable replies had been received from member nations to warrant the as- surance that a special meeting of the council to settle the differences between Great Britain and Turkey over the Irak boundary would be held. This meeting, it was stated, would be held at Brussels October q instead of at Paris as had been originally intended.
 To bring about the meeting in the Belgian capital, the league took steps 10 transfer temporarily to Brussels the organization of the council.
 Considerable criticism has arisen of the policy of holding the council and other league meetings outside of Geneva on the ground that such procedure is unduly expensive and because neutral Geneva is held to be best suited to be the site of interna- tional gatherings to solve political problems.
 The council has adopted the prin- ciple that it shall not meet outside of Geneva more than once year and the December session this year will be held in Rome. The coming at Brussels will be consider ed as exceptional and as a courtesy to Belgium which especially request

Bridge to Raise Fund
 For Girl Scholarship

The New Britain College club will
 hold the first of two bridge parties at the Shuttle Meadow club Thurs day afternoon at 2;sO o'clock. The bridge, which is in charge of Miss Agnes Johnston and the scholarship committee of the College club is an annual affair given for the purpose Of raising a scholarship fund avail able to any girl in the graduating class of the high school, who in- tends 10 continue her education at some college. The amount of the scholarship varies according 10 the amount raised by the College club at It's bridge parties.
 This past year the amount given was larger than ever before, but it Is still insufficient, and 1t io hoped by the scholarship committee that this year the club will have a much larger fund at Its command. This can be possible only through the in- creasing interest and help of the people of New Britain.
 This is the first time that the Col lege club has held its bridge at the Shuttle Meadow club, and it is ex- pected that an unusually represen- tative group of people will be pres ent. It is also the first time that the club has ever held more than one large party a year for this purpose. The ono on Thursday Is being held during the week rather than on a Saturday, as formerly, in order not to conflict with the New Britain high school football games.
 If there are any who have not al- ready taken tables who wish a part in this cause they may secure table by telephoning Miss Agnes Johnston, 1217 or any member of the scholarship committee, which in- clndes Miss Elizabeth Hungerford, Miss Grace Cohoan,, Miss Norma Began. Miss Millie McAuley, Mss Mae Regan, Miss Marion Hunger ford, Miss Beatrice Neal and Miss Nellie Levitt.
 Miss Florence Camp and Mrs. c. | F. Chase will be in charge of the candy table.
