see or even hear of Judge Light with-
out an inward chuckling. When I came
to this city. a rather notorious member
of the great Order of D. and 0.. I was
immediately surrounded by scores of
cheerful citizens who told me that the
Judge was a poor man to tie to or to
be tied to. lie was dows‘and out--
politically dead. New men were com-
ing forward. l<must nottake him the
seriously. Ten years ago the judge had
been a great man. but now he was out
of the running.
"it just happened that in a rather
extensive acquaintance with men of
some prominence, senators, judges.
millionaires. i had noticed that a cer-
tain kind of man who was down and
out had a way of coming backv—of com
log back with powerwwith greater
power than he ever had before. This
kind of man has insight into present
conditions and foresight into the prob.
abilities of the future; and i found that
Judge Light had just these two great
qualities. And so I kept quietly chuck-
ling to myself and waiting. And you
all know what happened. ‘in the great
Democratic deluge that swept this
country, right here in Connecticut.
Judge Light as candidate on the Re
publican ticket went into office with
the highest vote on either ticket. lie
is today the best asset of the Repub-
lican party in the state of Connecti-
cut. and you can make of him in the
course of the next few years whatever
you choose—governor. as your toast-
msstor suggests; senator of the Unit-
ed Staies: let me say. llclhaps both

The Democratic Sweep.
"Now i are a Democrat myself-~an
incurable Democrat—-~and l have a no-
tion that in his heart the judge is a
real Democrat. who believes in in.
dividual self-reliance and in progress.
in lecturing in a dozen different states
the past summer. 1 have come to the
belief that. the present Democnatic
movement. is no mere party movement.
no mere swing of the people from Re-
publican party to the Democratic: but
it is a genuine insurgency. a tide. not
a wave. it means that political ms-
chines mnst operate upon the princi-
ples of the majority sentiment. it
means consideration of the Welfare of
all the people. Personally, i look up-
on tho judge on an insurgent. progres-
sive Republican.
"it was illustrative of the foresight
of this good man. our guest this even-
ing. that for many years. he has do
voted much time to a line of work and
ethoughi that requires a long look
shosd~at least ten years ahead. Those
who are connected with schools. who-
thor laymen on boards of education or
educators in tile-business «operating
the schools. should know that what
counts is the kind of man or woman
who is to be the product of the schools
out of this youthful material. l have
found in all my conferdnces with Judge
Light that while he can look present
facts in the face his greater power
is in understanding the future signitl
canoe of events. which upon consid-
eration is their true significance.
"1 have been among you but two
and a half years. and?! am grateful
to you that l have been counted in

applause. This disappearance, stimu-

Herbert A. Mathewson.
How the Nomination Cams.
The reply of Mr. Mathewson to the
toast was confined to a succinct and
highly interesting account of the sit.
notion in the convention that lad first
to the proposition to nominate the
judge and second to his nomination
‘ by the overwhelming vote of six to
one. “This nomination proved to its
the solution of the problem of how to
find the man who could himself odd
strength to the ticket and yet liar-
tuonise the conflicting factions. His
name was first presented st i oclock
in the afternoon. by it oclock we know sin
that we had a majority of the dslso'

the convention. The presence of the
name of Judge Light on the llspubil‘

The basketball fans who braved the
storm of last evening were well ro-
paid for any inconvenience, by seeing
two of the best games that have ever
been played on the armory floor. The
Sixth Company team played lightning
ball against as. fast a quintet as has

weather is considered. The fans kept
the excitement. high at all times and
the large ball rang with the shouts of
the excited motors. There is no doubt
but the Sixth Company team will do-
veiop a quintet» as fast as the one of
last year. and although the first two
games of the season were lost. the
pace is now started and it will very
likely be kept up.
Norwalk's lineup was somewhat
changed from the line started in than
