Tt Is evident that the slogan at the hotel is “Help and support any cause which will benefit the citizens and the city itself,” said one of the leaders in the campaign Sunday. An example of this fine spirit was displayed when on Friday Assistant Manager Hanley of the hotel presented a handsome five pound 0ox of chocplates for those on duty in the booth with/a request that the chocolates be disp of by sale and the proceeds added to the fund. The committee desires to express their appreciation*of the courtesy of the man- agement of the varfous places in which hooths were located and they also pub- licly express their thanks to the workers who spent fong hours in the booths sell- ing seals. The booths closed Saturday night. Over 1,800 new cases of tuberculosis have been reported by Connecticut phys clans during 1921, and during the year many of these cases have been reached by nurses supported by the sale of -the Christmas seals. Through this means, many tuberculosls patients have been advised where thev can obtain proper treatment and some are on the road to recovery, thereby making Christmas a happier event than would have been the case without advice. Tn 1921 there were 1.039 deaths from tuberculosis of the lungs from January 1 to October 21st, which indicates the probable decrease in deaths t year as compared with past vears. This shows that even though the population of the state is increasing, tuberculosis is not increasing. The money recelved from the tuber- culosis seal sale fs spent in informing families of mersons ill with tuberculosis how tuberculosis can be prevented and how they can obtain proper treaiment. Eighty-five per cent. of the money re- celved from the seals | sspent in the community where thew. are sold. Ten per cent. goes to the state organization, and 5 per cent to the national organiz- ation.

It was announced hefore the girls had left that a total of $1,400 had been raised in cash and for- warded to the treasurer in New York for the rellef of destitute students ‘in Europe. How thig record will compare with similar gifts from other will not be known until after Chr . but 1918 and 1920 Cor it col- lege girls contributed the per capita amount raised for this purpose in any of the men’s or women's colleges in the counity. The total $1,400, this vear is the gift of some 375 girls.

A representative group girls met and each individual indi- dividual indicated what she thought she could give. The 25 figures—were 'added up and the total divided by 25, the average that became the foal of the campalgn.

Sleeping in the open, ‘I! observed the heavens .and was drawn to the study of astronomy all his life as one of his favorite pursuits. In the winter nights, with his father as his only Instructor, he advanced into higher mathematics, figuring on the hearthstone. He entered Yale, studied medicine and surgery, also took a course in Yalwl) vinity sehool, as religious question: terested him deeply. He pald his wi through years- of study, singing in con- centg and church. In 1852 he went to Californfa, but re- turned in 1854 and decided to make Norwich, his home.

Successful in his profession,‘he was not only highly esteemed, but loved by his friends and patients and was often called “The *Beloved Phyvsictan.” His wife was Miss~May, of a promin- ent southern family ; they left one daugh- ter, Mrs. Gertrude Haile Lanman.
