Winger, Was Recently Announced As the winter, thoroughly and tra- ditionally of New England, goes on, and its storms have piled the snow high, the members of the younger set are rajoicing. Theirs are the pleas- ures of sliding, skiing, and skating, all of which have been gaily indulged in this past week. The open country with its snow covered hills has been the scene of active, happy groups as .they enjoyed the sports which the heavy snows have afforded. Sleigh- ing, old-fashioned and delightful as it is, has been excellent and many have been the parties which have set forth to the jingle of the sieigh bells. LR Mrs. George Christ and Mrs, Ed- wards Case chaperoned a varty of young people on a sleigh ride to Un- ionvil'e this afternoon. Among those going were Miss Fay Kattenbury, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Kat- tenbury, Miss Flva McKirdy, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. W. N. McKirdy, Miss Dorothy and Miss Natalie Case, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. D. Case, Miss Virginia Humphrey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Humphrey, Miss Margaret Christ, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. W.

The second of the Twilight Musi- cales to be held at the Shuttle Mea- dow club deepened the sense of ob- ligation felt by music appreciators toward those members whose interest and generosity have made them pos- sible. Last Sunday afternoon's af- fair delighted a large audience, pre- senting a program general in its ap- peal. Judson House's seclections were fa- miliar and human, giving him splen- did opportunity to display the sym- pathetic charm of his voice. Those who applauded him in full apprecia- tion of his work would have been glad to hear him in more ambitious compositions, but would not care to surrender the pleasure he gave in his singing of the more simple ballads. His interpretation of Burleigh's “Ne- gro Spirituals” was especially enjoy- ed. Mrs. House (Helen Weiller) who always pleases, was at her best in her singing of Taggart’'s “"Autumn.” Her work added the touch necessary to the complcte artistic success of the afternoon. New Britain people are glad always to hear the Mendelssohn trio. Her- bert 1. Anderson's violin and Henry Schauffler’s cello, inspired not only by their own skill but also by the dom- inating musical leadership of Theron Hart at the piano, have won a high place in the opinion of musicians of the community. Sunday their work was marked by an artistic finish that strengthened their reputation. The solo work of Mr. Hart, especially in Elgar's “Salut d'Amour”, was splen- did. - . .

Each time scores of requests are received for appoint- ments to such committees as finance, appropriations and cities and bor- oughs, and as only two senators and | eleven house members can go an any | one committee, many requests must be changed, other committees are substituted, and tsome disappointments are inevitable. Undoubtedly the sen- ate president and the speaker con- sider the hardest job of the session over when the list of committees is complete. It is always a Jong and tedious process. A perusal of com- mittee personnel, after the gommit- tees were announced gives one the impression that both house and sen- ate committees are headed by con- servative, experienced, capable men. As a whole, the membership of the committees is the same. The so- called independent or ‘“radically in- clined” element is sitting outside the pale of good committee membership.

NORTH WAS VISITOR IN CITY OF ESSEN Believes Unemployment Will Fol- low Occupation of Rubr by French The occupation of Essen and the Ruhr valley by the French will no doubt bring about a considerable amount'of unemployment in Germany, according to O. B. North, a member of the sales department of the North & Judd Mfg. C, of this city and a brother-in-law of Congressman John Q. Tilson who spent several weeks in Coblenz and surrounding territory on a business and pleasure trip last sum- mer. Mr. North told a representative of the “Herald” that he found indus- trial conditions at their best in that section of Germany while he was visiting there, but if I"rance occupies that territory she will no doubt send all of the raw material into France to be used and in that way will throw many Germans out of work. Plenty of Work, Wages Low As conditions were in the summeéfy however, almost everyone was work- ing but the pay received was smail and the men and women never kept any of their money after receiving it inasmuch as the rate of exchange changed so often that a week follow- ing its receipt a workingman's pay might not be valued as high as the week previous. The money was spent as soon as it was received, In referring to conditions in gen- eral Mr. North said “The German peo- ple secemed to me to be satisfied with [the American and English troops in that territory but the feeling of re- venge was terribly strong against the French.” ; Everything was peaceful in that section of Germany, Mr. North said, with the WBritish soldiers in Cologne and the Americans along the Rhine. Does Not Favor Recalling Troops Mr. North said that personally he did net favor the recalling of the American army of occupation by Pres- ident Harding and especially at the present time when the troops might be needed in Europe. He said that he found the majority of men in the United States service to be happy and quite contented with staying in Ger- many for the next fow years. Many of them have married German girls, Mr. North stated, and have their own families in Germany. “There is no doubt that France has an object in occupying this terri- " Mr. North added,” inasmuch as it is the home of Essen, formerly Germany's greatest munition center and if the French are in this city and territory the Germans will not be able to make any kind of war munition or machinery to be used against the French.” It was the opinion of Mr, North that the Germans will not contest the oc- | cupation of that territory by France inasmuch as they are unprepared for war and could not resist them at pres- ent.
