New Britain's contribution to the nation-wide better will be $2,000, plans and the baby campaign according to present money will be spent in maintaining a milk station at the Burritt school from the close of school in June until late in the fall. It is planned to hire two nurses, one to serve two months and the other three. To offset some of the expense of previous years it is planned to teach mothers to use the modified milk formula instead of doing the work at the station. Miss Mary Kiniry will probably be engaged as nurse for the entire season and another nurse for two months. At the close of the sea- son a baby contest will be held and prizes awarded to mothers whose in- fants have shown the greatest im- provement through the milk station service. dvertised Letters s a list of letters the New May 1, The following remaining unclaimed at Britain, Conn, post office, Mrs. P.

Of the delegates named in Massachu- setts, New Jersey, Ohio, Arkansas, Washington, and Mississippi, all ex- cept the forty-eight in Ohio were un- instructed. The most interesting feature of the primary elections last week was in Massachusetts, where Colonel Roose velt’s candidacy was submitted to the people. The result was disappoint- ing to his adherents, and, taken in connection with the sentiment in some of the Western states against warlike preparation, has convinced many who had thought that Colonel Roosevelt would absorb the presi- dential situation that he cannot be nominated at the republican conven- tion. In Massachusetts the highest Roosevelt candidate for delegate at large received 43,925 votes as against 62,470 cast for Governor McCall, one of the four candidates for delegate | at large running on an uninstructed ticket. Four years ago Colonel Roose- vent received 83,000 votes in the Massachusetts primaries, as against 86,000 cast for Taft. Massachusetts was Roosevelt's po- | litical Gettysburg,” said a republican leader. He added that Justice Hughes undoubtedly was the ‘‘choice of the people,”” but was not entirely accept- able to the bosses, who had it in their power to overthrow, in combin- ation with Roosevelt, the sentiment existing among the masses for Hugh- es. The political leaders are repre- sented by men clearly opposed to Justice Hughes, because they fear, from his attitude while governor of New York, that he would not recog- ! nize them in the distribution of pa- tronage. convention were CASTORIA For Infants and Children, The Kind You Have Always Bought | Bears the | Signature of > m IYOUR BUILDING PLAXS, BE'SURE AND SPECIFY REYNOLDS’ FLEXIBLE ASPHALT SHINGLES REYNOLDS’ SHINGLES Have been chosen in preference to other types of roof material beca and maintenance cost already more than or weather They are exceedingly low in first cost They are durable, having been on roofs with no apparent change in appearance They are guaranteed.
