EMS OF BOOM.
There is room in Norwalk and
Q 'upport waiting for more than one
‘ service club. The Kiwanis Club by
it a long series of creditable achieve-
‘mente has made a name and place
, “for itself in the hearts of the resi-
" ants of this city. The Lions Club.
there is not the slightest doubt. will
do the some.
I We understand there is a feeling
among members of the latter organi-
ation that the local press is inclined
to favor Kiwanis activities in the
alter of publicity and give a com-
aratively small amount of space to
{meetings and projects of the Lions.
“1 . If this is true. and the contention
, .is opened debate. it is only because
I the Lions Club has not as yet per-
lected its lines of communication
with the press. The Evening Senti-
‘hel welcomed the Lions Club on its
inception here and now and in the
tuturs is ready to give it full cooper-
sites.
A “small town" newspaper is nec.
essarlly limited in type setting
equipment and the only request we
mks is that material for publica-
tion reaches our omce sumciently
‘ only to be set into type before the
rush of "spot news" for the day’s
paper begins to "break."
\VIS‘E WORDS
Like a. pleasant breeze helping to
dissipate the fog of hatred, which a
recent speaker in Norwalk tried to
create by heaping upon the head of
the recently arrived foreigner all
hints at abuse, were words in the
FWanhington's Birthday address of
President Coolidge.
.vfie referred to the immortal Wash-
Mn, as "the great example of
" tor."
“We shall fall in our estimation and
understanding of him" (George
intermission). Mr. Coolidge said. "on.
us we remember that during his
7life time he helped to build a place
trellglous worship: in his will' he
reviled for institutions of learning
and in his farewell address he em-
phasised the spiritual values of life.
But what he did was even more
. eloquent than what he said. He was
a, soldier. a patriot, a statesman;
. font in addition to all these he was a.
‘ great teacher.
”He believed our political institu-
tions were superior to those of other
gonntries. but he never preached ha-
‘tsed of all things foreign and he
' made large concessions in the nego-
‘ tiation of treaties for the settlement
‘nf: disputed questions which were
a. {or the advantage of foreign‘nap
' (ions. He believed that obligations
Twin mutual. that what we expected
51¢ receive we should be ready to
give. both in the field of oitieenship
and in the larger domain of inter-
national relations. He clung to re-
alities. That was his greatness."

Editorial ‘ Views

PARKING.
(Bridgeport Telegram.)
The proposition that the first town
successfully to solve the parking
problem will command the trade of
a. region for one hundred miles
around seems to have a. good deal to
recommend it. One thing is certain:
All attempts at meeting the parking
problem in Bridgeport thus far (ans
the same may be said for all other
cities in Bridgeport's class) have
been very poor compromises. or eye.
sions of the real problem.
Twenty minute parking. for in-
stance, is a compromise. thet‘fails
utterly to meet its purpose. The av-
erage business conference or shop-
ping visit. counting the time taken
to and from the parking place to
the destination cannot be conclud-
ed in twenty minutes. As‘one man
put it:
"Twenty minute parking is a good
fine-getter for a city." ‘
Perhaps it is an old-fashioned
view. but it seems that the people
who come to a. city to trade ought
to be accommodated. not arrested.
The problem in Bridgeport is not
insoluble. City Engineer McElroy
has already laid out a plan for the
creation of important public park-
ing spaces. by the extension of Her—
rison street and the condemnation of
some blocks of old buildings lying
between Cannon and John. In this
way a. very large. permanent park-
ing area might ‘be created.
But a. more immediate benefit
would be a change in the present
parking rules in the Business sec-
tion.
These rules should be as follows:
No parking before 9:15 a. in.
No parking after 4:45 p. in.
Two-hour parking between
above-mentioned hours.
This arrangement would clear the
streets for traffic by no-parking
during the rush hours, and would
allow leisurely parking for shopping
purposes in between times.
Why not give this plan a real
trial? It would be something of
a. novelty to seek to accommodate
the people who are down-town for
business purposes instead of making
it diffcult for them. The out-of-
town visitor who runs into a sum-
mons through an infraction of some
unsuspected and unnecessary park-
ing rule does not come again.

Editor's note: This is the first of
a series of five articles on typhoid
fever.
There has been a marked de-
crease in the number of cases of
typhoid fever slnco‘liloo. By look-
ing backward over the course of pro-
gress in disease prevention within
the last quarter of a. century much
cause may be found for gratification
ondpcncouragemenlz.
Typhoid fever has had ll. promin-
ent place in the bills of mortality
over all civilized countries. Fron:
time to time over wide areas it has
prevailed as a veritable scoursge.
in some of the wars of modern
times it has killed more than were
killed by bullets.
The cause of typhoid is a micro-
scopic plant. ,or germ as it is called.
so small that the individual mem-
bers can be seen only with the old
of a. high-power microscope. Min.
ute as it is. this plant. like other
plants. depends far its existence
upon favorable soil. The favorable
soil upon which it grows is. human
tissue.
How Germ Lives.
Outside of the human body it dues
not live for a prolonged period of
time. Various investigators have re-
ported that the typhold bacillus may
live for 1:: days in crude sewage.
four months in butter. five days
in homemade cheese. and 33 rink».
in ice cream.
It reaches human tissue by 10:132.;
swallowed. Once it has been 3“ ,
lowed by a. susceptible pen“;
and finds its way into the llssu
of that human being. it multipli- « l
rapidly and produces a condition
known as typhoid fever.
The germ of ty hold fever is i‘lis- .
charged from the ody of' the Enffll'
ed person in the waste material’
from the intestines and the kidneys.

waste material may be conveyed 10?.

Cutting the Rate. ;
Most of the reduction in the prov- l
alence of typhoid fever in the Uni-"
ted States llurlng the lost In years
has resulted from sanitary progrcssl
in the cities.
In our rural communities. which‘
are the source of our food supply?
and now also the source ot‘ most of ‘
our typhoid fever infection. sanitary
progress is being made slowly and
in spots. The lack of rural sanita-
tion is of critical importance local~
ly and should be a matter of na-
tional concern. ‘
The typhoid icvcr rate can be out
in the country just as it has been
in the cities if local health author-
ities are provided with facilities for
carrying on the necessary campaign
of education. and we could partake
of our food'such as milk. lettuce
and other raw vegetables with a
much greater degree of safety,
