SO YOU WANT TO GO BACK
 TO THE HAN2


 The finest testimonial l know e the great value of course at ( snnatorium is the feeling which virtually all graduates hnvo. foI the old schOOl--they look back upon tho year or more Of tnolf training with pleasant rec0licctlonr and rather long to rcturn Tor q visit if not for p0Bt'Rrnd uhtt courses. The relatives and frlcndh of patients get some impression of this spirit but tho outside world knows no more about lifc n q tuberculosis hospital than t d0eH about life in n hospital for mental diaease. 4 lot of people still hhr- b0r quaint notions Of tho horrors of the "nsylum" or tn c "mad house."
 This loneliness for the pleasant life at tho san has something 70 do with tho complaint Of q TO" turned patient, l suspect %hc describes s0mG of the unroGsOn- able exactions hor sisters husband would impose upon her--Such aa not only keeping her dishcs and eating utensils separate but boiling them all for 20 minutes every timo she uses them. and Insisting that she must never uae a wGgh' basin or bnth-tub that is t0 bG used by other persons. These are aii harsh and unjustihabIe requir6. ments, evon If the patient has ac' tive lung tuberculosis W6il advanc. cd and is presumably giving of the germs of tuberculosis constantly. For a pnticnt with arrested tubcr' culosis, hcnc0 presumably not glv' ing Of germs 1t all, such precuu tons become sheer cruelty.
 But from tho context It seems iIkniy that tho sisters husba nd is concerned only about protecting his young children from tho risk, and that is ample excuse for any rules ho may find it necessary GO lay down, in the cirmustances. For young children are most suBccpt' ibi0 to tuberculosis, and must Dc kept as much apart from friends or relatives who have it. even duiescent or arrested or nearly B0. as K humaniy possible.

Naugatuck To Have
 New Five And Ten
McKeespOrt, Pa. Chain Store Leases Part of TOIIes
 Block For SiteLeasing Price Not Revealed

of Town Clerk Louis Schiller, IT. revealed today. The. e c. Murphy company. a five and ten cent chain company with business offices at McKeesport. Pa, has leased part of the building on the corner of Park place and Church street, for merly known as the Tolles block which was purchased about six months ago by Martin Greenblatt of the Fulton market of Waterbury.
 The building was burned down several years ago and MT Green blatt recently started to erect a new structure. The erection of this is nearing completion and 1t is under stood the Murphy company store will start business as soon as the building is completed.
 The Murphy chain stores are well known throughout the west. There are not as many in the east. However, there is one in Ansonia. No definite time was stated in the notice of leasing agreement. It was revealed that the lease was agreed to on Dec. 12. The leasing price was not revealed.
 AS 8 matter Of beauty alone the news that a new store will be erected there will be of interest. Until MT Gleenblatt purchased the site, the ruins of the former build ing which had been owned by the Carlson store previous to the fire, did not present an attractive ap- pearance. The new structure is be- ginning to give appearances of en- hancing the attractiveness of Church street. The site had been occupied for many years by the late w. T. Gilnack's furniture store.
 According to MT Greenblatt the lease is for 15 year period with option of renewal for five more years. The Murphy company store will occupy the larger store in the building while the corner store will be occupied by the Fulton market. The Murphy store will have floor space of $500 feet.

SON OF SENATOR
 COUZENS FACES
 DIFFICULT TASK
Young Man Begins Duties in the Death Ridden
 City of Detroit
By JOHN OWEN Limited Press Staff COrrespOndenC

Detroit, Jan 4.-(UP)-A young man just out of his twenties grasp ed the wheel of Detroit's debt-rid- den city government today and viewed the future with confidence. His task was regarded as one of the most difficult to be found in the United States.
 Frank Couzens, who followed his senator fathers career to become mayor of Detroit when only 31, predicted that 1894 will witness a continued, steady climb back to normal business.
 Detroit already is feeling the surge of national recovery" he said in an interview with the United Press. "The economic crisis came swiftly here and recovery is com ing almost as rapidly"
 Couzens' youthful, square-jawed face flushed with enthusiasm as he talked. He glanced out of the window of his City Hall office, overlooking busy Cadillac Square.
 Those thousands of workers out there," he said, pointing, they're finding work. The CWA has put 50,060 to work here. Automobile factoreis are turning out their new models and recalling additional thousands of workers. Our street cars are hauling third more to and from jobs now than they did a year ago."
 I'm looking forward with great deal of optimism," he said. "But, I'm not going to run the city on optimism. I'm going to run it on strict economy"
 The mayor explained that the city's bonded indebtedness ap- proximates $40O,000, 1000, three- fourths of which is being refunded over a 30-year period.
 "We're going to economize," he said, but, not at the expense of any city service. We plan to issue in script between now and the end of the fiscal year, July 1, to meet the expenses of all city services"
 The city council has passed a amendment permitting de- linquent taxpayers to meet their obligations without interest or pen alties and Couzens believes this will bring millions of dollars into the city coffers within the next few weeks.
 We have been able to redeem 8 great deal of the scrip already he pointed out. q believe we'll be able to redeem the rest soon."
 Couzens, son of Senator James Couzens, was elected by an over- majority after he resign ed as acting mayor to run for the office last November. As president of the city council, he had been elevated to the position of acting mayor when Frank Murphy resign ed to become governor-general of the Philippines. Senator Couzens was elected mayor of Detroit in 1918.

FAILURES ALARM
 M'CILL PROPS
Unsuccessful Stud e mt s Surprise Montreal
 School Deans

Montreal = (UP) - Failures among students are alarming Me- Gill University deans.
 Statistics made available since the publication of the annual re- port show that in one group last session only 31 per cent passed in all subjects.
 "The large number of students who fail, or have one or more SUD- plemental examinations, always is surprising" Dean R. M. G. John- son, of the science division in arts, reports. "In the first year only 31 to 35 per cent and in the third year approximately 50 per cent passed without failing in any subject. These figures present a very important problem to this division" ~
 Dean c. F. Martin, of the fac- ulty of medicine, notes the same difficulty.
 More scientific methods of se- lection of university students, us- ing the aids developed in an ef- fort to solve the problem. The medical faculty already is CO.,. operating with an international organization in trying out voca- tional guidance tests.

Budgeting Time Is

 Spending of Available Money

the following types of food: CD milk and dairy products such as butter and cheese; CD the green leafy vegetables as well as toma- toes and oranges; (3) the coarser grained cereals and breads; (4) a little meat, fish and eggs: (5) fats. sugar etc. This food budget is not only simple, but 1t is the most eco- nomicaI.
 Other items in the family budget, which should be a cooperative plan in which each member of the fam fly bears some responsibility in it's conduct, may not be as simple, Miss Nickerson said. The selection of shelter may necessitate some sacri- flee when income has been cut. Shelter at a lower rent and in a less desirable section may be necessary in order to provide for such other essentials as heat and light, clothing and food. Protec- tive insurance should be kept up If possible and some funds should be provided directly for health for dentistry, medical attention and the requirements for personal and home hygiene.
