withholding Judgment on the euect of the dismissal of Peter Pajewski as chairman of the police commits sion and the consequent upheaval in the fifth ward. An off-the-cuf opinion would be that the repub- lican party has received a wound in a vital part of it's anatomy but the time which will elapse between now and the next election is so long that it will be possible for the breach to be healed by good generalship. It is a fact that if election were held tomorrow the republican candidates in the fifth ward might find the go- ing rough but much water will flow over the dam before 1928 when a mayor is to be elected and what will happen then is problematical.
 At a meeting of fifth ward repub- lican voters Wednesday night, lead CTS emphasized the point that any, thing which was said was not di- rected at the republican party but at the executive head of the city gov ernment. This may be taken with q grain of salt. Human nature is so constituted that it is probable the republican party has lost large number of supporters in the past week in the disaffected district.
 Democrats have been hoping that ex-Mayor Paonessa would re-enter the political field in the spring of 1928 as a candidate for the highest office in the city. But developments at the fifth ward meeting were not favorable. Paonessa as well as Weld being rebuked. There was little com- fort in the meeting for the demo- crats. True, the protest against eX- Mayor Paonessd ntering the dis pute over Pajewski's removal was engineered by friends of Pajewski who have been sharpening their knives for Paonessa ever since be- fore last election day. An attempt was made to organize drive against Paonessa prior to the last election but it had very little effect on the result and failed to hearten Pajew- skis friends.
 The political situation is more muddled than ever and months must pass before it is clarified.
 Tn case you are too busy thinking about your parties tonight to realize the fact, let us remind you that to- morrow will be the first day of 1927. It will be greeted in many ways. One religious sect claims that the proper knees: we think many will go even further than this and be found at midnight flat on their backs. But the fact remains that promptly on the stroke of 12 the new year begins and custom indicates that one shall wish it to be happy one. It is rather flat to say merely, Happy New Year to each and every person you meet as you stagger home. You should have a separate greeting for each, one appropriate to the person. If you want a stock of these, just tune out the static from the surrounding columns and listen in on these sug- gestions. When you meet person of any particular trade just hand him one of the following wishes:
 Physicians, More sickness
 Lawyers, More trouble"
 Athletes, Bigger and better alibis."
 Bootleggers, More raids and the resulting greater advertising"
 Lawmakers, More sense.'
 Motorists, More accurate range trians."
 Pedestrians, Better luck"
 Aldermen. Fewer brothers"
 Drug store cowboys, Shorter skirts"
 Flappers. More defective autos."
 Ministers, Larger headlines.
 Tndertakers. More gunmen."
 Educators, More theories"
 Hold-up men, Just as few police"
 Us, More Inspiration
 During the past year the Observer has received by mail a conglomera- ton of merchandise for which he has no use. So he is in complete sympathy with the plaint of friend who unloaded the following:
 q am just an average man. I usually pay my bills. buy my mer- chandise from my home town mer- chant or when l do go out of town, go to establishments with which I am more or less familiar. I even have been known to buy from stan- dard mail order houses, once or twice, and the five and 0 cent store is not altogether unfamiliar ground to me.
 But I object. in as strong and most emphatic and vehement terms my poor feeble brain can think of I refuse to have any fly-by-night, or fly by-d day firm saddle onto me any merchandise I don't want, never or dered and have no use for.
 q refuse to make myself a dump for someone's rubbish, a committee on censorship for goods even though they might have the desired quality, or the messenger boy or private salesman for some firm I never heard of.
 'I have had handkerchiefs, neck ties, cheap jewelry hosiery, cushion covers and what nots ranging all the way from liver pills to jink polish for Polynesian diploducuses deliver ed to my house by the mail man. In the envelopes find a letter asking me 10 please send check, or if I do not want the goods, kindly return
 Better Financially
