AMERICANIZATION CONFERENCE 1S DATED FOR HARTFORD On Nov. 19th the state department of Americanization in co-operation with the Manufacturers’ association of Connecticut is to hold at Hartford an industrial and educational conference on the co-opera- tion of these interests in Americanization k. ™ The conference will be in the hail of the house of representatives in the capi- tol building and will be from 10 to 12 a m. and from 1 to 430 p. m. The morning session will be given up to se- lected speakers. The afternoon will be devoted entirely to open discussion from the floor. The basis of discussion will be certain conclusions reached at the recent Ply- mouth Massachusetts conference between industry and educ-tion and at a recent Connecticut conference. Copies of these conclusions will be available for all The importance of this conference can- not be underestimated. The full co-oper- ation of industry and education is abso- lutely essential to the solving and proper handlirg of a problem that is described by some of the most prominent authorities as the most important problem con- fronting our goverrment today, and by no means second in importance to the edu- cation of the child. What are the obli- gations of citizenship for all .concerned? in For Ex-Navy Men. Ex-navy men should remember, says the recruiting station, that November 17, 1920, is the last day they can stay out and get the four months bonus. If they have been out nmear a year, they had better get back in the navy. So why not get the easy money, 30 days leave, any place in the country that you want to go to. No red tape, reenlist you in an hour, send you away with a smile, and a pock- | et full of money.
