NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, JANUARY 3, 1927. J. Eucharistic Cenclave, Florida Disaster, 2 | cizi Polar Flights, Among . Highlights. By CLARK KINN. AIRD Copyright, 1926 ¢ What were the most im- portant happenings of 19267 No one can say with wisdom, if | the measure of the importance? of an event is its favorable.or - 21! unfavorable effect upon the public welfare. We shall have| to wait and see. For all we| know, the one thing that will make the year 1926 memorable | a hundred years hence is the! fact that it witnessed the dis-' covery of a powerful new ray by Dr. William David Coolldgc,‘ the possibilities of which are so vast as to be incomprehensible .at present. It is easy enough, however, to pick out the events which most engrossed the public in- terest during the year. Uni “All T know lS what 1 read | dis in the papers,” Will Rogers brags and apologizes. In knowl- edge of what is going on in the world, that is true of most per- sons. And the matters and| persons which received the | areatest attention in newspa- pers in 1926, were: Prohibition. The international euchar- istic congress of the Roman Catholic church, in Chicago. The Florida disaster. The congressional elections, and the Vare-Smith “slush} {unds.” “Peaches” “Daddy” Charles | all 3 | pre u. ove 'ing i a wh enu ma lici tat el Va 161 ver: fou mil famn cre: reay the Ma and fen Browning.

Mexico’s enforcement of re- ligious laws which limit the| influence - of the church in non-secular affairs. Efforts of the governments| to collect war loans from for-| eign governments. France's struggles to avert!fo economic disaster. [ The British general strike. Civil war in China. Polar exploration from the air. Countess Cathcart, who in- troduced the public to a new word, “turpitude”. The oil scandal trials. Joyce Hawley's champagne bath. Heavy swimming traffic the English channel. | No attempt is made here to list these in the order of their| importance or the prominence given them in the press, and it will be noted that sports events are omitted. (They are considered elséwhere.) Following is a chronological account of the events of the|Brl vear which seem to be most| vignificant: § Jan. 1—James muny man, new York.
