A NEW GYM? 49,
ONG advocated by educators

and specialists in child train
ing, the plan recently put into eff
feet in the grade school of serving
hot dish at noon has found the
same welcome response here that
it has received elsewhere. 1t might
be but the first step in a plan to
supplement the MONDAY lunch with
other dishes. 1t would seem that a
6 cafeteria, run by the schools, SER
wing hot foods at cost, would take
well in those communities where
such a large proportion of the pu-
pills carry their lunches.
The two weeks experiment at
the Washington school seems to
promise enough support so that the
plan will be carried out next year.
If it is success there, it should
be at the other school too. But
that brings up another phase.
The present schools are approach
ing their capacity. With it's steady
increase in enrolment more room
will be needed in the high school
building. There is no possible way
to secure it but to use the present
gym. However, the gym made over
would provide two rooms on the
upper floor and a cafeteria on the
lower level.
Such a plan, while logical in ev-
cry way, brings up still another
angle. The gym, wholly inadequate
as to size and seating capacity, is
in use from 7:30 in the morning
until late at night. To accommo-
date the different groups now us
ing it, class starts at 7:30, hold
ing until the regular classes start.
At noon another group takes it
over. At $3.50 still another takes it
until 4:30, when the next one Games
on. Starting again at 1880, still
another class uses the floor and
often this is followed by still
another group.
In other words, the gym is en-
tirely too small. A larger building
could-and wouldlbe used as an
auditorium This town needs such
place. It's something to think
about

FARMERS IMPROVE

Dome was not built in day.
Neither will the farm prob
lem be solved in season. But
things are happening every day
that point to the way out. While
the government is busy with the
marketing end, the farmers them
selves are buckling down to eradi-
cate the faults on their end of the
business.
This was indicated by state
ment made last week by Lee M.
Lampson, who said: Zone very en-
couraging sign is the forehanded-
ness apparent. Farmers seem to be
planning ahead instead of waiting
until the last possible moment"
AS keen an observer as Mr..
Lampson would not have made this
unsolicited remark unless he had
noticed that forehandedness. Not
all farmers have been slow, but
many that were are discovering
that preparedness is as great an
advantage in farming as it is in
business. Getting the jump on old
Mother Nature will make her q
more ready servant. 1t gives the
farmer a few days. leeway in
which to change his plan to fit the
weather, the market and those
other annoying variables in the
game of agriculture. The farmer
who looks ahead, plans ahead, and
acts promptly is the farmer who is
ready to profit by any sudden
change for the better.

SON OF MAYOR QUIGLEY
 HURT PLAYING FOOTBALL
Allowed to Practice with \. B. H. S. Team and Is Injured
 First Day Out.

On the first day he reported for practice with the New Britain Sen- for High school football squad Richard Quigley. son of Mayor and Mrs. George A. Quigley, suffered a fractured ankle that has required his being confined to his home for the past week. He received permis- sion of his parents to participate in the contests only after many days of deliberation.
 Mayor Quigley said today that all though he did not like to have the boy play football he felt that he would not be justified in allowing his objection to stand in the way.
 He is the only son of Mir. and Mrs. Quigley and is a junior at the school.
 Young Quigley is the second to receive serious injury during the present football season. The other player was Arthur Bell, son of MT and Mrs. Walter Bell of Francis street. He was taken to the New Britain General hospital with knee injury but was discharged from the institution late last week.

AT THE EMBASSY

Vigorously acted by George O'Brien, supported by splendid cast, Last of the Duanes," based on Zane Grey's most thrilling western romance, opened an engagement at the Embassy theater and will con- tinue today and Tuesday.
 This production takes it's place as one of the most intensely gripping dramas yet offered on the talking screen. It is the story of handsome young rancher who becomes an out law after he kills the man who mur- dered his father and whose complete redemption is brought about by love and daring deeds which result m securing for him a pardon.
 O'Brien portrays the character of Buck Duane who falls in love with the beautiful girl he meets during his wanderings. He afterwards res- cues her from band of cattle thieves in most dramatic and thrill ing fashion. O'Brien. always a To- cal favorite, gives a capital perform ance. surpassing anything he has done since the, screen began to speak.
 Last of the Duanes" serves to in troduce a new personality to the films in Lucille Browne, beautiful and winsome little blonde, who SCOT ed repeated triumphs on the speak ing stage before she decided on a career in talking pictures. She makes the most of her romantic role and is particularly convincing in her love scenes with O'Brien, adding a tender feminine touch such as only talented artist is capable. She has already established her popularity by her portrayal in this picture.
 The outdoor scenes are all of au- thentic beauty, having been photo graphed in the rugged interior of Arizona. long famed for amazingly beautiful scenery.
 Myrna Loy and Walter McGran are also featured and the support ing case includes James Bradbury, Jr., Nat Pendleton, Blanche Frider- ici, Lloyd 1ngraham among others.
