The navy department has recently made, arrangements to: give an honor placard to the family of all young men who enlist in the naval service. This is a specially designed card to be tacked to the front of the young sailor’s home and states that a dweller there has enlisted in thesnavy- M. 8. Brainard, chief radio electrician, in charge of the local recruiting station, states that he has réceived many calls from families of enlisted men asking that they be given one of these honor cards but because the naval epart- ment_has made " provisions for the recruiting stations to give these cards only to men who enlist now, he has been unable to do so.. However, Chief Brainard explains, it will be possible for. families of men older in the serv- dce to get these cards by applying to the commanding officer of the ship on which their relative is stationed. “The, recruiting office today issued a statement declaring that the navy ts in need of many more recruits as ships cooks. An order has also been received from Washington ’stating that machinists mates are needed. All men who have served in the navy as magc! mates are needed. All men who have served in the navy as machinists mates can enlist, with this rating providing they have served their full time. Others are subject to examination. The pay in the navy has also been increased, effective June 1. The In- crease is pro rata, but to the appren- tice seaman it means that instead of receiving $17:60 per month he will receive about $33 per month. WAIT UNTIL JOHN GETS HOME! - Yielding to the wanderlust or spring fever, John Cherneski, aged 16, of 328 Church street, 18 being sought by the police upon complaint of his mother, Mrs. Eva Cherneski of the same address, who alleges that not only has John been away from home for the past three days, but gave up a remunerative position ‘two weeks ago and has been associating with a crowd of young fellows who have an aversion to work and prefer to hold down sidewalks and. curbings. She informed the policq that she is much worried over John’s conduct and de- sires that the authorities take him in charge and teach him the error of s ways. Assurance was given. that the men on street duty will be on the Tookout for him and inform her, if he is located. 4 l\foveltxes Red, White and Blue V.Pviace Catds, Post Cards, Greeting Cards, ps mfiCapm Flag Seals, Silk Flags, Decor- IGNORANCE SLAYER OF YOUNG BABIES Mothers Willing to Learn and ’nut. Is Where Milk Station “Does Its Bit” (Contributed.) It is estimated that about half tho Ibubles who die before they are a year ial‘ are killed by nothing more or less than ignorance. Mothers are not ig- norant from choice but from lack of opportunity to obtain information. “Infant welfare or milk station were organized to supply this need, to give to the mother the opportunity of obtaining expert advice on the care of the baby. She learns, perhaps, that by drinking a quart of milk a day she may be able to nurse her baby through the summer and so avold the danger of summer dia- rrhoea, she learns that although her baby is not gaining fast in weight it may not be necessary to wean him because one bottle feeding a day may be enough to produce the necessary gain; she learns that a little milk and water and sugar is not the proper food for her baby, that he néeds cer- tain definite proportions of the food elements in milk to meet the indi- vidual requirements. “It is upon the infant welfare sta- tion nurse that the chief burden of education falls, the doctor is respected and looked up to, but the nurse is an intimate friend and adviser. She visits the home daily, if need be, in- structs the mother in the preparation of the' baby's milk, and shows her how to make a simple ice-chest and impresses upon her the importance of keeping the baby's milk clean and cold. She teaches her how to bathe and dress the baby and how to make a bed in a basket so he may be put where he may sleep and live In the fresh air, and answers gladly the in- numerable questions thut a mother can ask.” ‘We are asking citizens of New Brit- ain to make this information available by supporting the milk station. The cost is moderate- It is far cheaper to keep a baby well than'to care for it in a hospital. AL R s PICKING REVOLVER TEAM. Officer Rival Leads in First Ellmina- tion Contests. Crack shots of the police. depart- ment, rated from the averages of the recently completed tournament, are engaged in an elimination shoot for places on the six-man team to be picked to meet teams representing other departments throughout the state. The first of the elimination shoots was held last night on the range at headquarters with the following av- erages out of a possible clean score of 30: Chauffeur Matthias Rival, 27; Policeman Anthony Walinczus, 26; Sergeant Theodore Johnson, 24; Po- liceman Michael Massey, 23; Police- man Frank Hahn, 21; Policeman Herbert W. Lyon, 20. Several shot far below their form displayed in the tournament. Others will shoot tonight and it is expected that the members of the team, selected from the six highest in the elimination -shoot, will be named soon. A tentative meeting with a six-man team from the Hartford police department has been tentatively arranged to take place in that city next week. In the elimina- tion shoot, a new police service auto- matic, secured from- the Colt’s con- cern of Hartford has been used. STAR ANDREWS IN THE TOILS. Apparently finding the weather un- favorable for planting and in search of other flelds to conquer, Star W. Andrews of West Main street visited th center of the city this morning and appeared as a principal in a bout with John Barleycorn. The latter dealt a knockout blow, the victim being found groggy near the New Britain National Bank buildiag on Main street by Policeman Herbert W. Lyon. In the patrol, he was carried to a cell at headquarters and is scheduled to be a member of the class in police court tomorrow. HOLNDAY WARNING BY POLICE. Because of the presence of ‘key workers” and other crooks in the city recently, police officials warn the public to be more than usually alert tomorrow, both relative to the wear- ing of valuables that would be an easy prey to pickpockets, and in leav- ing their homes so that entrance can be easily secured and valuable loot secured, if entered. Precautions, if taken properly, say police detectives, will materially aid in foiling ' the crooks who have seemingly made New Britain a periodic visit. HARVARD CORPS TO BE TESTED, Cambridge, Mass,, May 29.—Recog- nition of the Harvard Reserve Officers Training Corps by the war department will depend largely upon the report to be made by the inspector- of the dopartment who will review the corps | at the stadium on Friday.

Mrs. Gleason also left another $100 in trust with Rev. Father Daly or his succes- sors to be used as deemed wise for the relief of the deserving poor chil- dren in St. Joseph's parish. Relatives in Ireland were not forgotten, the sum of $60 being left in trust with Rev. Father Quinn or his successors in the parish of O’'Callahan Mills, County Clare, Ireland, to be divided equally among the children of Martin Grady. If no children are now living the money reverts to the estate. All the rest and residue of her es- tate, Mrs. Gleason willed to the presi- dent of 8t. Thomas’ Seminary in Hart- ford to be held in trust for twenty- five years or more until the income of the residuary fund at the rate of 6 per cent. shall amount to $300 per year. Then the fund is to be spent according to the following specifica- tions: Any deserving relative of Mr. or Mrs. Garvey anywhere in the world, on proof of relationship and providing they wish to take up the study of the Roman Catholic priest- hood “can, if they have the proper lit- erary qualifications, have the use of this fund to take a six years course at St. Thomas’ Seminary, provided their expenses do not total more than $300 per vear.
