| does not come through with the appointment. It is known that Dr Dolan was one of the original Roosevelt leaders in the state. Yet Tit appears, Senator Lonergan is powerful enough at Washington, at least 90 far, to hold up the formal appointment of the Manchestcr dentist. Tn the meantime Gus Lynch of Danbury. who is said to be favored by Senator. Lonergan for the. post, is living in hopes and so are the old Guard leaders. As for tho post of district at. torney, Senator Lonergan has ai- ways wanted the office given to State Chairman David A. Wilson of Hartford. The Iattcr has succeed z ed quite well in straddiing the Guard and the New Guard and therefore is considered very good chairman. .
 The New Guard wants Senator Frank Bergin of New Haven to get the district attorneys post and 1t is now said that Senator Lonf organ has agreed to support htrn on the condition that Chairman Wilson Is taken care of in some other lucrative and important posi- ton. Just where Wilson will be placed is not known. Senator Ber- gin is now chairman of the liquor control commission and would re- sign if named district attorney. This would create a job -at Hart ford for which. it is conceded. there will be a host of candidates.
 George Ryan of this city is still awaiting an answer from Washing ton on the results of his quest Tor a post with the federal department of agriculture. He has strong back. ing for the position but. like all other Connecticut patronage, things are not happening.
 As for the local postmastership. the democrats here are beginning to burn up.". They cannot sec why n decision should not be made soon 50 that q deserving democrat might ,displacc the present z. o. ?. incum- bent. The race between the several local candidates. whose names have been mentioned over and over again with reports giving all of them an even chance, still goes on. It has now become q marathon or endurance race and the candidates are only hoping that they do not reach the age limit before Wash- ington finally decides to do ,some- thing.
 Another week is at hand, how ever, and Connecticut will live in
 hopes that President Roosevelt either left orders at Washington before departing for New York or that he will send out the good news from Hyde Park.

5000 Presch0OI Children To Set
 Physical Exams
TIT Summer ROund-ups Already Held = Many Defects Corrected Be- fore Start in Fall

Some five thousand Connecticut children who will enter school for the first time this fall have been or will be given complete physical and dental examinations in the an- nual summer round-ups, insu- tuted by the Congress of Parents and Teachers. the state department of health reported in its monthly bulletin to-day.
 Last year about the same num- bcr of preschool tots were exam ined and about five thousand diff ferent physical defects were dis covered among them. One-third of the defects were serious enough to be referred to tho family physi- clan for treatment.
 Thus far this year, IF round- ups have been held in the state, practically ail of them in the smaller towns which do not have public health departments to take care of such requirements. Still others are scheduled and there Is still opportunity before school opens in the fall to have defects corrected so that. children may enter school life in as healthy a condition, as possible. Parents who have missed. the opportunity of having childrein about to enter school examined at roundup should give them the benefit of private examination by the family physician. At{.t
 Some children are born with the heritage of strong, healthy bodies and capacity for making normal gains throughout childhood; they may even attain opttmuIn growth with reasonable care as to sleep, food and rest. But other children are not so fortunate: some come into the world under handicap and make slow progress through out the growing period; some fail to mako expected gains in height and weight and are always lack ing in strength.
 In the past such different ca- pacities fin the children were not considered by parents who felt that they were either fortunate in having children who were natur- ally healthy or just unlucky If their children did not gain as they should, but little effort was made to improve such conditions. Not until the draft experience in the World war revealed an amazing number of health handicaps in adults that should have been cor rected In early life, was there an awak ening of our responsibility to children. As a result of this. re- sources were made available to mothers in many places for physi- cal examinations of their children.
