The reason for this is obvious. They o not wish to be isolated from their familles any more than is necessary. and with the type of case which mosty «ommonly comes to our attention if the patient is obliged to go, for ex- ample, to Norwich, the matter of the family visiting the patient be- comes quite difficult since the cost of going to Norwich is frequently | more than the remaining members | of the family can afford. I am re-| liably informed that New Britain is not the only city suffering from the | lack of sanatorium facilitics but that | the same condition holds true| throughout the state. This has been | known for some time and measures | to remedy the situation have been attempted, but to date not on a suffi- | ciently large scale to take care of all applicants. Location Not Perfect “The maintenance of a local! tuberculosis hospital, as we know trom previous experience, has num- | crous advantages, particularly with | reference to the patient. It has dis- | advantages in the fact that its main- | tenance on’ a small scale makes the cost per patient Migher than ft| would be in a larger institution. The | second fact is that while the build- ing was previously used for that pur- pose and ig quite admirably suited to it, the locgtion could hardly be con- | sidered peffect. To use that building again, or attempt to use it, would | most certainly cause difficulties, As | you will recall conditions from four | years ago when we maiptained the | tuberculosis hospital even then there | was great difficulty in getting pa- tients to go there because they know that the building had been used for | smallpox patients some 20 years| previously. The question that rises in mind is, with the building used for smallpox so recently as 1924 what | would be the chances of using it | satisfactorily for tuberculosis pa- | tients now. We realize that there is | no danger from the smallpox, but to | convince a prospective patient of that 1s much more difficult. “I hope this supplics the informa- | tion you wish, and if it does not please let me know what furthoer facts you want so that I can supply them to you, and may I also thank you for your interest.” | | About one-third of all the coal used in the United States today fs constmed by the railroads. | Rheumatics Poiso_l_led!

Robert Lacey of the law of- fices of Aftorney Thomas F. Me. |ceptibly as day blends into evening | fhgient Donough Klosowski built a structure un- der a permit issued by the building department, it being supposed that it was to be used as a garage. In the meantime, he was left without |a barn for his horse and he made Charles Waldron's application for a certificate of o cupancy to allow of the use of the garage as a stable. This move brought protest from the neighbors and they have appealed to the building commission, the depart. ment of health, the common coun- cil and the mayor's office to fore- stall Klosowski in his plan. Under a discretionary ordinance, it is possible for the health depart- ment to give Klosowski a special permit, in spite of the building de- partmant regulations which require greater distance from the dwelling than the garage now stands. Such a move is now in contemnlation and if it is carried out, litigation is | threatened.

When *Coquette” was first pro- duced in New York more than & | vear ago, it was greeted by critics as !a drama worthy of ranking with the | best. These same commentators placed upon the brow of Miss Hayes the laurels of real stardom for her skill in interpreting her character. Audiences who view the play on tour will agree that the critics did not exaggerate, The story of “Coquette” is familiar [to thousands whose interest in the theater is sustained. Norma Besant [lives with her father, a doctor, and "her achoolboy brother in a southern town. She flirts with all the eligibte young men of the community, mak- ing each believe that he, and he alone, has her heart. By a strange quirk of fate she actually falls in love with Michael Jeffrey, the one person who cannot qualify for ad- mission to her cirgle, and in defiance {of her father’ she meets him clandestinely, Her father learns of her adventure and with characteris- tic southern impetuosity, his anger aroused over revelations Wwhich , Michael has made in the heat of |anger, he seizes a gun and puts two bullets through Michael’s heart.
