British Journalist to Speak Sunday Night al Church
 Forum

George Slocombe. British journal ist and author, who just recently arrived from London for q tcn-wcek 1ecuire tour in Chicago, Boston, Philldalphia and other cities, will be the speaker at the forum of the Second Congregational church on Sunday evening, January 10 at 7:30 o'clock. His subject will be "The Europena Crisis"
 When there is no existing news in London or Paris, George Slo- combe goes in search of 1t. For over 12 years, "the man with the fiaring red beard has been known in Europe, India and America as q doer of outstanding journalistic deeds. And. further, as an unique personality. It was he who had the world famous interview with Ma hatna Gandhi in India in 1880 and initiated peace negotiations with Indian leaders which led to their release from prison and subsequent appearance at the London round table conference.
 It was his book Crisis in Europe" which, published just four days prior to the assassination of King Alex ander of Jugoslavia, contained q remarkable prophecy of that event. He has lived in Paris for 18 years, off and on, and his book on 1t, Paris in Profile' has been called by Ford Maddox Ford the best book about 1t he has ever read. He was president of the Anglo Amer ican Prcsss association of Paris. He was the first English friend of the famous French sculptor-genius Gaudier- -Brezeszk, killed early in the war. He is the friend of James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway and other writers and he was once the friend of Bernito Mussolini.
 MT. Slocombe's most recent book, published in April, 1938, is Don Juan of Austria" Tn April, 1897 he expects to publish two more books, "A Mirror to Geneva and Paris Personalities of the Ninetics."

Lease Expires, City
 To Erect Abattoir
Plans for New Slaughter House Approved By Beard of WOrks-O Ordinance on Signs Must Be Amended

Permission to erect a new city abattcir was granted last night by the boafd of works. Mayor Frank Hayes explained that theS lease on the building in which the abattoir is now located is nearing expiration and cannot be renewed. It is tn- derstood that the Waterbury Brew ing Company is to take over the building.
 The new building will be owned by the city, Mayor Hayes pointed out. thus making the cost of the abattoir cheaper in the long run. The struc- ttire will be built on city property at the old sewer beds in South Water bury. It will be one story in height. As the health department has charge of the slaughter house the request for the new structure was received formally from the health board. E.
 Action Deferred
 Further action on the proposed ordinance governing the hanging of signs was deferred again. It was explained that there are some clauses in the ordinance, as now drawn, that must be changed. In viev of the delay the board granted permission to g large number Of applicants to hang signs. Their petitions have been held up pending the enactment of the ordinance.
 The ordinance, as 1t now stands, requires all persons engaged in the business of hanging signs to pay a fee ranging from $2 to $10, depend- ing upon the size of the sign. The Gamc person must pay $t annual inspection fee.

CREDITS SUCCESS
 TO NEWSPAPERS
Salada Tea Co. Has Trib- ute for Efficiency in
 Advertising

Newspaper advertising, used con- sistently week in and week out, year after year without Interruption, K responsible for much of the success of the Salada Tea company, 1t was pointed out by officials of the com pany at their annual sales conyen- ton held recently.
 Early in January. the company will launch it's 1927 campaign which will marke its 18th consecutive year of consistent newspaper advertis- ing. During all these years. the corn- pany has grown steadily. Each year. newSpaperes have been added to It's list and through good times and bad, Salada tea has been adver- tised consistently, in only 6 few newspapers at first, then in scores, and now in hundreds.
 While newspapers have been used almost exclusively-thc Salada Tea company has always kept an open mind to other forms of advertising. From time to time, test campaigns have been conducted in other fhedi- Irns. The results obtained frem these many tests have indicated that newspaper advertising works best for Salada tea.
 Newspapers, from the big metro- politan dailles to the small country weeklies, afford a great market place for quality merchandise. No other medium provides such wide and thorough distribution. So corn- plete is the covGrage of every com munity that 1t would be difficult to find a place in the United States which is away from newspaper in- fiuence.
 Newspaper coveragc B so complete because everybodys is interested in the news, and the newspaper is the only medium that carries all the news. Even those who read little will scan the pages of the newspaper and are influenced by the advertis- ing seen there.
 5alada Tea company has always believed that advertising. whether newspaper advertising or some other form, is not something to be afford- cd. It is q method of buying busi- ness just as the operation of sales force is q method of buying business.
 Salada Tea company credits much of It's success to it's consistent news paper advertising. This policy coup led with the unvarying high quality of Salada tea and it's unconditional guarantee to wholesalers. retailers and consumers alike is responsible for the company's enviable position in the tea trade of America.
