E. Martin An“idea of the great ggod the milk station is doing is gleaned from a re- | port prepared by Mrs. J. E. Martin on the progress made this summer. The’ report demonstratés the.usefulness of the station and should be every man and woman who has the welfare of New Britain at heart. The report follows: “The milk station ror babies, which continues to contribute a great. and needed service to this community. “So -many of the illnesses, babies during the summer months could have been avoided had the mothers only knoywn the first prin- ciples of prevention, and it 1is - the realization of the need of enlighten- ment concerning those principles that has caused this wori to be carried on. “Every mother knows that a well baby is much easler to care for than a sick baby and fortunate indeed is the and how to do it,'in order to insure the baby's health and comfort as well as her oyn, but,all mothers do not know. /just 'what to do, 'althousgh #nxiouf and.willing, and the rilk sta- tion provides opportunities for getting this knowledge for dll those who wish to avail themselves of the - efficient sérvice to be had there. Service at Milk Station. “The service at the milk station re- solves itsélf into , several different kindg, all’ beneficial to the mothers Wwho, for the most part, have much to ledrn as to the proper care of their children. There is the preparation of the food from formulae furnished by physicians and sold to the mothers all ready for use; there are mothers’ meetings held every Thursday after- noan at which the mothers are -in- structed in matter of hygiene, cloth- ing, and diet for their babies; moth- ers are taught how to prepare the milk themselves, and there is valuable follow-up work in the homes of ‘the babies. * “Miss' Sarah’ Hamrick, who is in charge of the milk station this sum- mer, is doing a very efficient work there, her previous experience in in- fant welfare work making her espe- clally valuable for this service and her helpers are able “and | experienced trained nurses, who are nmdering her the best kind of earnest assistance. “It will be interesting to the com- munity to read the details of the work done at the station during the five weéks it has been in operation -this summer, as submitted to .the -milk station committee by Miss Hamrick in: her monthly .repo: ‘ "Slxty-three bgbies lu,vc been reg- istered at the station and at the pres- ent writing thirty-nine are being. fed there.

Baby Contests Planned. “During the month of August Miss Hamrick plans for two baby contests and offers a prize for the winner in each case. The first is for the best ‘cared-for breast-bed baby up to six morths of age and the second is for | the bBest ‘cared-for bottle-fed baby. The' conditions attached in eath case are that the mother must bring her baby to every mothers’ meeting on Thrsdays in August at 2 p. m. to be weighed and inspected. that a large number of babies will be entered. in these two contests. “In recent years 'much hds Deen means ofivreventing the Jlarge sum- mer mortality among infants, but much yet remains to be done, and an institution which aims to help in this work is deserving of the support. of by its effects. “May we not hope thi moral and financial support by the municipality and by private citizens will insure the of articles suggestive of the comfart were provided by a philan- thropic woman. “A number of breast-fed babies are being bfought to the station to be weighed, and it is Miss Hamrick’s aim to encourgge this kind of ‘baby, . of which she finds all too few in our city. “Many, mothers have been taught and are now . putting up their own formulae, and this is the underlylng 1im of the station. “The stdtion has been c&rrying ten sharity cases, but a numberiof these aave been taken over by thoughtful ~vomen who have each furnished $5 o carry a baby through the summer.

New London, Aug. 3.—In a 12 knat northeast wind and under gray skies the New:'York Yacht club cruising squadron started for Newport, R. I, at 10 o'clock today. The habor start was signalled at 9 o’clock fram the flagship Viking, and the varfous racing and cruising craft moved In- stately -procession out of the Thames to a point off Bartlett's Reef light vessel, where the regatta committee tug has established the starting line. Towering high above ‘even the 90- foot schooners were the top hammers of the two American cup tandidates, Vanitie .and Resolute. These single stickers, being special craft, were to race for prizes of their own and were not to compete for any of, the squad- ron runs cups. They were started be- fore the regular classes, so they might have all the sea room they needed. The cup yachts went away at 10 o’clock and the New York Club fifties and large schooners and auxiliaries were sent over after the smaller di- visions had been sent away in the wake of Vanitie and Resolute. SAFETY FIRST. The party of local people who left yesterday for Canada to visit the Shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre evi- dently believe in safety first, for prior to leaving, indentification cards were received from the town clerk and also a seal and stamp of the city. The cards contained the slogan of “New Britain busier, better ' bigger." Rev. J, T.

The autémo- bilist smashed into the milk dealer’s wagon on Sand Hill last night with disastrous results. ) The accident occurred on what is known as Sand Hill, a lane running between Stanley street and Pratt sta- tion.. Chief Rawlings investigated the affair and arrested bo:n men. It wag found that the only lights on the ay- !"tomobile were the tail lamp and twe dimly burning side. ights Which no lights ahead. Dezzani admitted that his searchlights were not sf working order and that only his il lamps were burning. Judge Kirkham ruled that the law says all automo- biles shall be equipped 'with lights which will throw a lignt a certain dis- tance ahead and as the lights of the accused did not comply , with that law he was guilty. Dezzani explained the accident by saying Falk had no ligat on his wagon and was also on the wrong side of tHe road. Falk pleaded guilty to not having a ugm on his wagon and Attorney M. D. Saxe spoke in His behalf, * He said Fn.lk has been in the habit of getting home before sundown but last night's storm held him up on the road so it was dark before he got back. It wis because of this that ne aid not lnve a lantern on his wagon. Dobruck-O’Mara Feud- Once again the Dobruck-O'Mara feud was given an airing in court to- day when Peter Dobruck was charged by Mrs. O'Mara with throwing some black colored liquia on hér newly panted house at the corner of KEast Main and Wilson street. = Dobruck is the third member of the Dobruck fam- (ily Mrs. O’'Mara has had arrested in | the past few menths, the ‘wife and son having been” tried previously. | Mr. O'Mara_recited her tale of woe at length and said that at 6:40 o’cldck ‘Sunday morning she wsaw ‘Dobruck | near her house with a bottle of some | black fluid in his nand. She algo | saw the same stuff smeared on her héuse and saw traces of it on . the | shrubbery and also on Dobruck’s clothes. Assistant Proseutor J. G. Woods told the court he thought the. stale had secured a conviction but as Deb- ruck had denied the accusatin and the | state had introduced no evidence to - show that Dobruck haa thrown | contents of the bottle, Whatever it might contained, nor had even intro- duced any corroborative evidence the court. discharged the accused. in making his decision Judge Kirkham said it seemed strange that if Dobruck had committed such an act he would have appeared boldly with the bottle | as. Mrs. O'Mara said he did. “I don’t think you have quite mnade out a case. Discharged,” said the judge. Attor ney M. D. Saxe appeared for the ac- cused. ' Piggery Case Continaed. Onee more the case against J. Dob- rowski, charged with keeping ani um- licensed piggery n Clinton . streét in violation of the health ordinance, has ! been continued..

Yester- day morning the boys raided the ap- ple tree and took about a half bushel of stomach aches. A number of em- ployes were sent out from the factory and they surrounded the . tree and boys, holding the lads until Sergeant Bamforth arrived and placed them un- der arrest.

Dillen’s AMidavit Shows There Are About 30,000,000 Péople Dependant Upon State for Rations. London, Aug. 3—Sir Frederick I. Smith, the solicitor general, at.yes- terday’'s session of the meat casés, before a British prize cour’, produced a swora affidavit by Major Erick Dillon, 2 member of ‘the gen- That -eral staff, giving a British estimate, which he says is approximately cor- réct, showing that the number of persons serving in the German army and under the control of German mil- itary authority aggregates 10,000,000, Thé statément was produced in sup- port of the crown’'s contention that ! people employed in some of the or- dinarily civillan occupations are now in thé service of thé German govern- ment and no longer part of the civil- | ian population, and that, therefore, the foodstuffs seized by the British | intended for government really was Major Germany's military forces. I Dillon’s figures follow: A—Under arms on two fronts, in nd on lines of communications, 4,000, B—In training in G-m-.ny, 750,000 C.—Casualties, including constant 2,000,000. all, of which are ‘specially for war the military au- used and organ and are controlk thorities, 500,000/%; E.—At Krupp's arsenals and fac- tories, and. other arsenals and facter- ies concernéd in the manutacture of war munitions, 750,000, F—In coal mines and in factories, concerned in making &rmy boots. clothing and other articles necéssary in the equipment and provisioning of | the armys 2,000,000. Solicitor General Smith argued that the German government regerved th cargo | | title holder by virtue right to substitute rations allowances to Ll wives of these men, Therefore, mod- erate figure of two uponaum for each of the 10,000,000, he sald there would be 30,000,000, who might be dependent upon the state for rations; that it would be fair t6 assume that in all probability the seized goofls | were intended for government use.
