NO DECISION ON
 HART ST. HOUSE
Camp to Give Decision After
 Seeing Building Board

At special meeting of tho build ing commission yesterday afternoon, called for the purpose of determin- Ing whether the Naples house on Hart street is a one, two or three family dwelling, Building Inspector E. J. Hennessy was asked 10 explain the difference between ono and two family houses, and. he replied.
 "A two-family house is one ar ranged for the convenience. not the inconvenience. of two families"
 His reply which brought q good laugh from the commissioners and spectators, was in reply to a claim that the absence of cooking appara- tus, kitchen, sinks, etc, and the presence of but one gas meter, one electric meter and one door bell, did not necessarily brand the building as a one-family house.
 MT, Hennessy declared that there Is no other rule to govern a decision. and he suggested that Attorney Donald Gaffney. appearing for ob- Iecting neighbors, suggest some way by which the city might order changes and he promised to do so, provided the attorney would point the way.
 After a lengthy discussion Acting Corporation Counsel Mortimer II. Camp said he would meet with the building commission before making q decision. The building inspectors said they were ready to adopt what ever suggestion is made by the cor poration counsel.
 John F. Downes and A. D. Cliff ford, both of whom are builders Of long experience, inspected the house and declared it to be two family house to all appearances.
 It was brought out that the building, the proprietors of which claim it to be a single family dwell ling, has six rooms on the first and second floom, and if an amendment to the permit is granted will have four rooms on the third floor. in ad- dition to four sleeping porches.

The man or woman who sub scrlbes and then dismisscs the sub Ject has only rendered a part of his or her obligation 10 the community. The service which hayo been re- questod to discuss today is known as Junior Achievement, IL is a good eX- ample of what business and profess slonal men can do in the field of cd ucation and social service.
 "The Junior Achievement move- mcnt was started by tho Eastern States Agricultural and Industrial Lengue in 1919.
 "Rccords show that in the city Of New Britain, there are approximate ly 3,076 boys and 3,021 girls of n total Of G,O97 between the ages of ton to fifteen years and that approxi- matcly 9.3 per cent of each group arc gaintully employed. Much of this employment may be undesir- able and a handicap to proper child development, Some without doubt 'N'' liSAS''l lll O'Nu llliN ulS- like. If so, they will eventually shift about until they find employ mcnt more to their liking and 10 which they are better fitted. This is an age old method and has it's advantages, yet wiser and more de- libcrate choice might be made if these young people had more in- formation about the variety of oc- equations and the opportunity to try out in different lines. In pioneer days when the nation was largely rural, boys and girls obtained a rich character building experience through their activities about the farm and in tho home. The home of today with its apartment life and modern saving devices and congest- ed city living offers little opportun- ity for work experience 10 boys and girls. A
 NO doubt a large percentage of these G,097 boys and girls, is receiv- ing training in manual arts through the public schools. However. the schools do not expect this training to function immediately.
 School instruction including man ual training, teaches principles and is given in preparation for a life or existence 10 hc. Application, theo- retically, is postponed until the com pletion of school life. The average school is limited 10 q few trade or industrial lines. This prevents an adequate ystem of try-out in, or ac- quaintancc with a major portion Of the city's industries.
 Producing, alone, is not com- plete business or vocational eXpcri- cnco. Purchasing, financing. bank ing, advertising. selling. are equally important in preparing for practical life. and practical experience in an elementary form in these lines is as important as production. These cX- pcrienCes to be of full value should be lived The application of train- ing in manipulation received in the school should not he postponed to later years; it should he applied i'm mcdiately in a practical field. Junior Achievement offers this opportun- ity.'
