JOLLY 11531111
NETS $50 FOR
PLAYOROUNDS

School Children Enjoy
Entertainment
At High School—Get
Health Hints

The Jolly Jester's visit to Norwalk
Saturday Was a tremendous success.
As the result of his visit about $50
will be turned over to the Play-
ground Fund. 1,220 children of
all ages enjoyed the entertainments
at the High school auditorium. It
was found necessary to have three
performances to accommodate all
those who wanted to see the antics
of the Children's Clown. Great was
the glee of the children when the
Jester came riding in on his hobby
horse and all through the entertain-
me t he held the attention of the
chil ren. ‘

The Jolly Jester proved to be a fine
vent‘iloquist and his captors with
Minnie Spinage, Charlie Carrot.
Jocko, the monkey, the trick violin
andzHarry the schoolboy, were on?
joyed by one and all. The Jolly Jes-
ter showed the children in a very in-
teresting and amusing manner what
the rules of good health and hop
plness are. He introduced the chil-
dren to Minnie Spinnach and her
cousin. Lucy Lettuce and to Charlie
Caz-rote and ' his cousinKMMy
Turnip, Jimmy Parsnip, Robert Oh-
ion and Paddy Baked Potatoes.
Jocko, the monkey, “‘11 a. great suc-
cess and showed many interesting
sides. of the good health rules.

The chase of the cofiee- pot called
forth great applause and the en-
trance of Harry, the schoof boy, who
didn't like tea. created an uproar.
The children were dellgllted with the
clown and his jolly antics and his
irrepussible desire for milk. “All
present saw the clown leave with re-
gret for they enjoyed him greatly.
Each child received a. health rule
card alter the performance.

The affair was under the auspices
of the Home and School League and
all necessary arrangements were
made by Mrs. D. A. Shambaugh to
whom great credit is due. The tick-
ets were distributed through the
Schools, one mother being assigned
to each school. A committee of
teachers and mothers acted as ush-
era.

The Home and School "league
thank the parents and teachers for
their co- -operation. Special mention
should be made of one Knudsen
school teacher who devoted the
whole of Saturday morning to the
welfare of the school children by
escorting forty of them from. the
Knudson school to the High SChOOl-

The tickets at the morning per-
formance were in charge of Louis
“’ood. In the attemoon, Mr. and
Mrs. W. Waldron had charge of the
tickets at the 2 o'clock performance;
Mr. and Mrs. George Ingham had
charge at the 4 o 'clock performance.
The affair was primarily for the
welfare of the children and also for
the benfit of the public playgrounds.
It is expected that about 850 will be
turned in by the Home and School
league to the playgrounds commit-
tee. The success of this affair-was
very encouraging to the Home and
School dengue and it is hoped that
other entertainments will be arrang-
ed for the school children.

Alice Hill Chittenden

‘ Speaks 0f Coolidge

And the Coming
Election

 

 

 

Two interesting-speakers addressed
the meeting of the “'omcn's Ite-
publlcan association held in the sun-
parlor of the Royal James Inn yes-
terday afternoon. The first speak-
er was Miss Alice Hill Chittenden of
New York, chairman of the com-
mlttec on national affairs of. the
New York -\Vomen’s Republican
association. The other speaker was
Harry R. Landls. assistant commis-
sioner of immigration, Ellis Island.

The meeting We . presided over by
Miss Mary Riderfchairman of the
Third ward. The members voted to
make Mrs. Minerva Davis, who re-
cently resigned as president of the
association, honorary president. The
resolution to this effect was passed
by the executive board at a meeting
held previous to the meeting of the
association. and was unanimously
accepted by the association. It was
also voted to hold a luncheon at the
Country club early In June.

'Mrs. Lllllan Sherwood Ncwkirk
entertained with two groups of
songs. The first group consisted of
negro splrituals. The two songs in
the second group were "Dawning"
and “Top 0' the Morning.” Mrs
Newkirk was accompanied by Miss
ally Belts.

Miss thttenden talked on: “Edu-
cation ln Politics." She told of the
framlng of the constitution. and of
the wonderful foresight of the men
who framed it. She said that they
realized that many governments had
failed and they wanted to be sure of

this one. They wanted the consti-
tution to be a guide to all future
legislators of the country. Miss

Chlttenden described the executive,
legislative and judiciary bodies, and
explained the workings and powers
of each. In regard to the powers of
Congress, she said that the people

Senate not lmpeaching Daugherty,

doesn‘t the president declare war?"
The president. she declared, cannot
declarewar for this poweriests with
Congress.

Miss Chlttenden described a na—
tional convention which she attend-
ed elght years ago, telling of the en-
thusiasm of the delegates. and the
red tape which surrounds everything
that was done.

A book of President Coolidge’s
speeches, thCh has been recently
published was also spoken of by
Miss Chlttenden. who said that she
thought it. would be worth while for
the association to own. some copies
for the members to read, for they
contain some of the finest docu-
ments ever written and show the
splendid courage of the man who
wrote them. and how well ‘quallfled
he is to be president.

In speaking of national conven-
tlons Miss Chittenden said that. this
was probably the first time that the
delegates would go to the conven-
tion with only one candidate in
mind for their party. Sire said that
the party could be very sure of Pre-
sident Coolidge's ' nomination but
of his election they could not be so
sure because of the Democratic can-
didate and the party issues will prob-
ably make it a. hard fight.

"This summer, then." she con-
cluded, “will not be a. summer in
which to rest and play. but a. sum-_
mer in which to work if you believe
in the Republican party."

Mr. Landls spoke on: "Immigra-
tion Regulation, “'ay and How."
and gave his hearers a. clear idea. of
the problems faced by the workers
on Ellis Island: as well as by those
who make the laws about immigra-
tion. He said that since 1820 our
population has increased nearly one
hundred millions and that more
‘than a. third of this tremendous in-
crease has been due to immigration.
He told of the change in the char-
acter of our. immigration. whlclLbe~
gap to take place a few yérs prior
to 1890.

“Before that time." he continued,
"immigrants who wanted to settle
on the farms and take up hortic-
steads in our public domains came
over in’large numbers, but when the
desirable homestead: were no lbnger
to be had for the taking, these peo-
ple who'wanted to be farmers and
land owners stopped coming in such

large mbers. At the same time, the
fact system was developing in
industry, with a.‘ demand for a. vast

supply of cheap inborn. The old Im-
migration would not supply that de-
mand, so em layers began to raw
on the limltl reservdlrs of man
power In the south and east of Eu-
rope and western Asla. These new
comers were of an entirely dlflerent
type. By 1910 this so-called new im-
migration constituted 75 per cent. of
all who came to this country each
year. . 1*

prominent Norwalker. The premium

increase, in this particular case,
am \111tcd to $3.
According to local insurance

agents, however, the rates on dwell-
ings have not been increased gener-
ally. It was said that the rates in
this one particular case was increas-
ed because of increased fire risks
through certain changes made in
the building.

The comment over the case has.
for the most part, condemned the
fire insurance companies on the
ground that Norwalk has spent
many thou‘sands dollars in adding to
its fire equipment as well ya adding
paid firemen to the department and
deserves a. decreased rather than in-
creased rate of insurance. The rate
of insurance today on dwelling
houses "is 22 cents for each $100 of
insurance for one year; for three
years the rate is 55 cents a hundred.
