FOR G. o. P. HARMONY?

Political observers here, how ever, profess to see more in Yves selection. They regard it as highly significant that a man of Yves leanings is to take over job here tofore held by "old guard" Re- publicans.
 Many believe that McNary is out to restore peace and harmony in- solar as possible in the G. o. P. ranks of the Senate. It is a sub ject very close to him.
 One of his favorite expressions is that "all Republicans look alike to me-" He has made attempts be- fore to conciliate Insurgent Senate Republicans and bring back into the fold those who deserted to Roosevelt in 1892.
 Among this group of Senators, he is probably the most popular Republican Leader the Senate has had for many years. They like his attitude, which is not that of a dic- tator.
 From the far west, McNary is less liberal in his views than such men as Norris and LaFollette, but ----------@

Republican Leader Names Nye as Chairman, lm-
 portant Committee
By HERBERT pLUMMER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Politi- clans in Washington blinked their eyes when they learned that Sen- ator McNary of Oregon, Republi- can Leader of the Senate, had named Nye of North Dakota, Chair man of the Republican Committee on committee assignments.
 It is the first time that one of the Progressive Republicans ever has served on this committee. Nye is in a position now where he will have large voice in deciding what committee assignments Republican Senators will get in the future.
 McNary dismissed the Nye ap- pointment by merely saying the North Dakotan was in line for it. He will take the place of Dave Reed of Pennsylvania who lost out in the elections of November 6.

THE OLD CORNER LOT
nB1 THE MAN N TUE TOwER
Good Evening.

Do you sometimes think with sadness Of that familiar corner lot? :. Remember how it looked to you, though Some folks called 1t blot. Afternoons after school all the Neighborhood kids and sundry, Gathered there for lots of fun All the week 'cept Sunday. Ground hockey and baseball you played Til dark at six o'clock, And many other games as well Rough and tumble duck-on-the-r It wasn't very slightly, oh, dear no, But enormous and four-Square, An occasional jutting rock, no grass, But little did you care. Specially on Saturday all day long The gang was most hilarious, The town bullies also chiseled in With antics more or less nefarious. Don't you get homesick sometimes And feel utter desolation Thinking of the old corner lot that Now boasts swell gas station?

|HEALIh CONTEST ENTRIES SOUGHT
Conn. Towns Urged to Compete in U. s. Cham
 ber's Competition

Twenty-thres cities and towns in Connecticut are eligible to compete in the seventh annual inter-cham- Der city health contest conducted by the. U. s. Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with the American, Public Health association, the state department of health announced in its current monthly bulletin, in an article which urged participation by those communities, since the prI- mary objective Is to stimulate the development of more adequate fa- cilities for public health work.
 The Connecticut communities which are eligible to compete for awards this year are the following: Ans sonia, Branf0rd, Bridgeport, den, Hartford. Manchester, Merd- Bristol, Danbtry, Greenwich, Ham den,, Middletown, New Britain, New Haven, New London, Norwalk, Nor- wich, South Norwalk, Stamford, Torrington, Waterbury. West Hart ford, Westport and Willimantic. The department listed the follow ing possible benefits which any city may derive from participation in the contest.
 1. It provides an opportunity for 8 self-appraisal of the community's public health program.
 3. The backing and intelligent interest of Q well formulated pulp lie health committee of the Cham Der of Commerce should result in | increased public interest in and
 knowledge of sound public health work.
 3. The fact that this is com munity-wide rather than health department contest should be con- ducive to obtaining a more con-, plete picture of public health fa- cilitieS and programs than would otherwise be obtained.
 4. The incentive of the contest being a competition in which all in- terested organizations and groups participate should result in a more unified community interest and, therefore, in 8 better coordination and integration of the work of the various groups interested and en- gagged in public health work. 5. It should foster 8 spirit of CO., operation between the public health workers and the medical and den- tai professions in that specific credit is given for preventive work done by private physicians and dentists.
 6. The contest should provide useful publicity in that the results of the analysis of the information submitted will call attention to the strong features of the community's public health program and likewise point out its apparent needs.

Worth perpetuating. The Board of Education acted wisely in changing the name of Columbia School to Kingsbury School in honor of the late Frederick John Kingsbury one of the citys respected citizens of other years It is entirely in keeping with previous actions of the board in honoring deceased citizens in whose lifetime they have contributed many civic accomplishments calling for just such recognition. The name of Kingsbury is old and honored one in this community. Of recent years the city has been the beneficiary of many acts of kindness the part of the Kingsbury family.
