Norwalk may well be proud of its fine new high school building in West avenue, which is thoroughly modern in all of its appointments. and has a teaching force that is second to none tn‘nie state, And, best of all, there i , comes simultaneously with the open- ' log of the new structure, the announce ‘ meat that the school board has adopt- ed a. course of studies approved by the state board of education, tiiat _ makes the Norwalk high school a real ‘ college in the .ings are little more high school in every respectr—one from which a graduate can enter any land without extra months of special preparation and ex- animations. DISGRACEFUL As THE BRIDGE. ’ in planning for a new Washington street bridge, careful consideration should be given to the probiéin of elim- ,‘ diluting the rows of wooden buildings that. abutt either side of the approach and are equally disgraceful with the Whole structure. Most of these build- than shacks, hare grown up wart like. and even now some of them carccn so badly "'that it would not be surprising to see them collapse. The sanitary arrange- ment is also so poor that the health authorities should long ago have done something to bring about an improve- ment. CONGRESSMAN HILL PLEASES VERMONT. Voters of the Fourth Congressional District, who have expressed their confidence in Congressman Hill by pluralities ranging from five to fifteen thousand in the past fourteen years. may feel gratified to learn that their judgment is highly appreciated all ov- er the country. During the Vermont campaign Congressman Hill delivered Several powerful addresses in that state. One‘of these addresses dealt with the guarantee of bank deposits, an issue in the present campaign. This address, together with the en- llghtened discussion of the all absorb- ing tariff question, delivered in this city at the Republican congressional convention, has been widely circulated all over the country, and has been freely discussed in the newspapers. It is gratifying to note that the com- ments have been generally favorable, ' and even in instances where the com- ment was unfavorable to Congress- man Hill’s deductions, it was admitted that the Connecticut man had band- led the subject with an ability that showed the master mind, and it was acknowledged that his discussion of financial and tariff questions showed a grasp that was comprehensive and convincing. ' Fortunate indeed is Connecticut in - having theservices of such a leader on a subject that is recognized all over the world as the most intricate that legislators have to deal with, The Fourth District, therefore, not only does itself proud in retaining the ser. vices of Congressman Hill as its rep- resentative, but it also confers a fa- ‘vor upon the state and the nation. which redounds greatly to their bene- fit—Bridgeport Post.

There's dignity, wealih and good-ful- lowshlp them; there are men fat and lean, short and tall: There‘s the youth who nc'or saw a convention before, and the warhorse who‘s been to them all. i There‘s vet'ran “Newt" llnrtriuu. as spry as of yore notwithstanding he's seventy-two— What he ‘don't know about the po- litical game there are few politicians that do— He's the author of many a good pub lic work, the father of Putnam State Park. He keenly enjoys being out with the boys—he's of age, but no “old patri- arch." Here‘s General Ilishop a‘sirolling ghis'way, a chip of the sturdy old tim- er, Wo beams with good-fellowship all the year 'round—the same in July as December. He's statesman, and huntsinan. and fisherman too—and the delegates say that “Hen" Bishop Most surely and easily could if he would. yank the gubernatorial fish up. i Your friend Homer Cummings. of national fame, is likewise exposed to the lightning.

And there stands that Norwalker, Johnny J.

There's Bryan Muhmi, of the war- horse brigade—that quiet man there near the door— ’l‘he hero of countless political hat- tles, and good for a good many more. He's chairman upon the Executive Com. where there's usually lots of rag chewing, But with Bryan on deck in the chair. it is safe to expect there will be some» thing doing. There's Senator Donovan—Jerry the bold. who’s famed for good humor and wit. There's one feature visitors always seek out at the State llouse-aud Jer- ry is it. For he's always in tune for a frolic or fight, and he‘s caustic with tongue or with pen. And he‘ll get a reception to do his heart good when he comes to the Sen- ate again. Permit us. kind friend. to present to you now, Mr. Sullivan, Hartford's ox- mayor Who thrilled the convention with el oquent speech and sat in the presi- dent's chayor.

Fred Mullins is leaning against yonder column—— Fred abandoned a Park City public “soft snap" to take up a profession more solemn, He's dignified when the occasion re- quires, and he’s one of our kind when it doesn't. And he'll vote for a friend who will vote for his friend. in spite of dad. uncle or couslnt. The Elm City mayor, "Jim" Martin. is here—that innocent. boyish-faced man, Who beat out the welloiled, slick running machine. the very first time that he ran.
