Taft realizes the potentials of this
matter and sees more clearly that
the results desired can only be
secured after months and perhaps
years of unremitting study and
work. From his presentation of
the scope of this matter, it would
appear that he fully realizes that
the high cost of living is the direct
product of the change in the econ~
omic conditions and social fabric
of this twentieth century. which

TRIBUTE TO 8. C. PALMER.
99 Second St, N. '1'.
Jan. 31,1911.

To the Editor South Norwalk Senti-
nel:

As one of his numerous "New York
boys," I cannot help expressing at this
time a few words in appreciation of
the late Seymour C. Palmer.

Although my friendship with him
goes back but three or four years i
think for: familiar with some sides
of his life that were only hinted at to
his South Norwal-ll friends and ac‘
quaintancoe.

You who know him in South Nor
walk were aware that he was fond of
New York. You knew in a vague way
that he was interested in some young
men in New York. But you can hard
ly know what a real scarce of inspira-
tion he has been to many young men
hero. 9

die was fond of having a meal at
the Mills Hotel of a Sunday just to
meet some of the Y. M. C. A. boys who
came there, to talk with them and to
help direct their pursuits in worthy
channels

Many are the yo1 113 «men with whom
he would make appointments in New
York. so to a church service, listen to
some magic in the park or perhaps
visit the museums, the attaches of
which have known his use for years.

He was always ahroaslof the times
in various brsuchcs’of knowledge and

was one of the best informed men 111‘

my pleasure to meet. His ‘mlnd war

motions for the new!

When last i saw hint, two weeks ago
his mind was alert it had idol none of
its quickness of perception. but i was
grieved to find that his physical fac-
ulties were waning. '

No one can tell how many are the
young men whom Mr. Palmer has help
ed:_ men in whose lives he came a:
critical moments as a deciding force.
fits interest In young men kept him
over young. He often wondered why
they were willing‘to "endure the com-
pany of an old war horse." We all
found in his mind a ripened wisdom
and a positive genius for common
sense.

His interest in matters nrchltectup
al is. i think, quite well known.
There is hardly, 11 building of any in:
portance in and around New York in
which he had not set foot and his 'mind
was filled with the roost amazing at-

them. it was nothing short of a treat
to walk up Madison or Fifth avenue
