tWATERBURY EVENING DEMOCBAT, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2i 1900.
JUST AT
ETls" season of the year'almost every
one should be happy. Chirstmas gen
erally brings good cheer and happi
ness to every heart. Let us say right
here that we are continually looking
for the happiness of our citizens, par
ticularly our patrons. Speaking of
happiness reminds us how people can
unintentionally make themselves iin
happy. For instance, if we advertise
n big bargain with one pound for a
certain date, and yoa forgot the date
you'd be very angry, wouldn't you?
Again suppose you were invited to be
present at a happy dinner party, but
you forgot the date wouldn't you feel
mean? ' Indeed you would. Well,
suppose our citv fathers promised you
they'd have "Hamilton Tark" ready
for a grand opening on a certain date,
and suppose, for some unknown rea
son, it was so (oh, what a supposition.!
and you forgot the date, therefore you
did not attend, wouldn't wou be mad?
ITes, sirree. and so would we. ou
Bee. by forgetting dates, you. often get
left. There are other dates' whiclu by
forgetting, cause you no end of trouble.
Kow to help you avoid missing dates,
pound our nice tasting tea or rresn
roasted good quality coffee, with a
beautiful calendar for HUH. Its an
ornament for any parlor in the city.
There is no big plaster of an advertise
ment on the picture, either. Say. a
look at our 1901 calendar will briiis a
look of real happiness to your counte
nance, without fail, at

; " One of the things brought out in the
discussion relative to school expenses
at the met'ting of the aldermen W ed
nesdav night was mat the training
school saves the city the salary of
three teachers. The principal argu
ment some people were putting against
the institution when it was about to be
reopened was that it would entail an
expense which the taxpayers should
not be asked to bear. The school
officials and others who had taken the
pains to familiarize themselves with
the plan contended that it would be
a saving to the district, and the result
proves the latter view to have been
correct.

Prof, ssor James E. Grafton, of the
High school, was happily remembered
this morning of the approach of the
Christmas holidays'. Miss Leta Hol
comb, in behalf of the pupils of his
room, presented him with a handsome
silk umbrella, while yesterday after
noon he was the recipient of a gold
pen from the members of the Anabasis
class. Mr .Grafton thanked the pupils
for the gifts, although protesting that
he did not deserve them.
The public schools. St Mary's paro
chial school and the Convent De Notre
Dame closed to-day for about a ten
days' vacation, school re-opening on
Wednesday, January 2.' In almost all
the schools, exercises in commemora
tion of Chirstmas day was held. In
some rooms the children had Christ
mas trees, while in others they had
Christmas boxes, where they stored
their gifts for each other. The teachers
were also remembered with pretty
gifts from their pupils.
The soiree given by the 1901 class of
the High school in tlie High school
building last night was an enjoyable
affair. The room in which the! tlancing
was held was tastefully decorated with
flags. The evening's amusement open
ed with a piano solo by Miss Minna
Storms. A dancing program of twelve
numbers tLen followed, for which
Professor Leo Curley acted as accom
panist. The dancing of the Virginia
reel by the entire ensemble was the
closing of an evening of rare fun and
amusement.
