The average French farm has not
been improved as the American one
has within the last generation. The
radio is rare; automobiles are even
rarer. The standard of living is
undoubtedly higher than before the
war, and currents of life now flow
freely through the French country
side, but the peasant still thinks of
his life as a dull one.

Preparations have begun for gala program to attend the formal open ing of the new club-roonns of the St. Thomas Holy Name Society on Tuesday, December 13. No definite plans have been formulated as yet, but it has been decided to have 8 parade as the primary event of the evening.
 The club rooms, located on Barnes street, were converted from home purchased by the Holy Name Society several weeks ago. Remodeling and reconditioning were started almost at once, with the active members bearing the brunt of the work almost in its entirety. Today, the major part of the work completed, the finished product is beginning to take shape. Neighbors and friends are congratulating them on their fine work.
 The club-rooms are to be used for all business meetings of the Holy Name, and also as a recreation cen- ter. Martin Crean is president of the Holy Name Society and Christo- pher Griffin, vice-president. Rev. Joseph Donnelly is chaplain.
 Successful Party
 The card party held recently by the St. Thomas Holy Name Society in the basement of the church was a huge success. Almost five hum dred dollars was realized from the joint affair, said Martin Crean chairman of the affair.
 The card party was well attended by church groups from all over tht city. The types of games played were varied, the choice depending or the whim or aptitude of the person Suit-jackets were removed, sleeve: were rolled up, knuckles reddenec and all formality discarded as the evening wore on. Supremacy in the different contests were decided for another year, turkeys were tucked under respective arms, and the de- hghtful evening came to close.
 Chairman Crean was asssited by Thomas Foley, president; Christo- pher Griffin, vice-president; Edward Coughlin, secretary; and Bernard Burns, treasurer.
 Communion Services
 Approximately one hundred mem- berS of the Holy Communion class oi 1927 and 1928 of St. Lucy's church will receive communion in body al the Branch street parish Sunday Members of those classes are asked to meet in the basement of the church at approximately 7:45 o'clock Communion. will be served at the S o'clock mass.

operating until midnight but II O. clock has been the hour at which young men members were supposed to leave the lobby, and go home.
 Reasons Outlined
 The social committee and the Young Mems Council recommended the later hour for the following reasons:
 1. In stormy weather, members could wait until the storm abated.
 ?. The taverns stay open until 12. The YMCA should match the taverns, and promote temperance.
 3. The last busses leave the cen- ter at 12. showing that 12 o'clock is closing time in Waterbury.
 4. Industry has 3 to Il D. m. shift which gets out of work at Il. The folks are sleeping at home and the Y offers the only welcome spot.
 B.. The YMCA bowling alleys and billiard room are now open rntif>12. After the games the members like to finger bit and chat and cool of in the lobby.
 6. Dances and parties wit hgirls are allowed until 12 D. m. The stag parties for young men only, must close at Il o'clock. If they are not allowed to finger in the lobby, they often do so outside.
 Secretary Smith states me of the YMCA slogans is The YMCA is run by its members Therefore when this unanimous resolution came from two such representative bodies. as the Senior Inter-C Club Council and the Central Social, Committee, the executive committee voted its approval. subject to a one months trial, as proposed by the council and the social committee"
 Changes Necessary
 up to 1925, the Central YMCA was closed and the door was locked at 10 p. m. and it was not open on Sundays, but it has been the policy of the local Y to build itself into the life and meet the needs of Wa terbury. All three branches, North End. Brooklyn and Central are, this year. open on Sundays and holidays. Two bowling alleys and billiard rooms in all three buildings have operated until midnight, but the other features have closed at II p. m. By this vote, the YMCA closing hour is now 12 o'clock midnight.
 Many interesting pieces of friend ly service have been rendered at the Central YMCA during the late hours of the night, because ''le YMCA is the only one of the social agencies which keeps its office open all night"

COURTS DECISION
 UPHOLDS FINDING

Judge Earnest c. Simpson in finding of Compensation Commis- sioner James M. Lynch in the case of Leonard Madeo of BOA Congress avenue against the L. Suzio Con- struction Company of Meriden. He dismissed the appeal of Madeo from the refusal of Commissioner Lynch to award him compensation.
 Judge Simpson held that the merits of the case were confined to medical testimony, which although conflicting. was more in favor to the respondent that the petitioner Findings on such testimony cannot be corrected or stricken he stated.
 He also ruled that the petitioner took improper procedure in his ap- peal, in that he asked for an en- tirely new finding from Commis- sioner Lynch, instead of citing particular portions of the original finging in which it was claimed error had been made.

HYMN. OF PRAISE
By CLARENCE HAWKES. (The Blind Poet Of HadIegl

@ EDTroRs NOTE: Clarence Hawkes. ~The Blind Poss .. Ea for the United Press following Thanksgiving Is AssocationsJ There are reasons for Thanksgiving In this festal day and year, With our nation tranquil living
 In world of hate and fear. With dark war clouds over Asia,
 And with Europe fighting, too, Still no shadow aims our pleasure,
 There's no war cloud OCT our blue For these things we thank Thee, Lord, Gathered round the festal board. There are grains and fruits a-plenty, So our people will be fed In this land of Gods great bounty,
 None will want for daily bread. There are houses for the needy,
 There is shelter for the poor. Though his raiment may be needy,
 Let no suppliant pass thy door. Invite him in to meat, instead
 Twill turn your fare to heavenly bread There are schools in every valley,
 There are churches each hill. To these bulwarks we should rally,
 Social evils they will kill. To the Pilgrims God give glory
 For those men who wrought so true. In our hearts we keep their story,
 All inspiring, ever Forgive us, God, if we forget And miss the mark that they have set. Not in gold, and not with treasure
 Do we build the finest things. Dead the race that's drunk with pleasure, Rowing in the courts of kings. But in trust and faith and honor,
 As the Pilgrims built of yore On the shores of time we garner
 Things that live forever-more God help US then, Thanksgiving time,
 To keep their faith that was sublime.

BY LOGAN CLENDENING, Nj. d.
PERSONS on a reduction diet
want to reduce the easy way, but
II they stick on the diet they will
not have to have recourse to magic.
They all want to know certain
things:
Alcoholic beverages: ALI alco-
hollc beverages are potentially fat
tenlng. Beer contains about 10
grams of carbohydrate a bottle, or
10 calories. Alcohol itself has a
fuel value of 21O calories an ounce.
A Dry Martini cocktail has 131
calories; an ordinary highball $50
calories; glass Of Sherry wine
about 38 calories.
Exercise: It is not necessary to
take exercise in order to augment
reducing diet. The diets we are
living furnish only about 700 to
400 calories a day, which is under
lne needs of an average adult body
al ordinary activity. Exercise will
aelp a little bit in reducing, but
"hen II Is remembered that it has
Oeen calculated that it requires
only about 1000 calories for a per-
son of $50 pounds weight to climb
Fixes Peak, it can be seen that
exercise actually does not reduce
oy itself. It has the added disad-
vantage that it creates an appetite.
Which is already plague to the
reducer.
