NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, THURSDAY‘ 25TH ANNIVERSARY - OF THE HOSPITAL Triple Celebration at Shuttle Meadow Club on April 6 Owing 1o number of war tim tertainment, our coal shortage and a hindrances unavoidable in our Hospital Benefit En- usually arranged in February by the Woman's Hospital Board, will take place on April the | 6th at the Shuttle Meadow Clab and will be in the form of a whist party and The Dansant. As there is a dou- ble, nay, even a triple significance to this proposed entertainment, a more than usual attendance looked for, a more than usually liberal support for the excellent cause it seeks to pro- mote is anticipated. Wh triple reason? you ask. In the jour New Britain General was incorporated in the year 1893 s we ought to celebrate the twenty- fifth anniversary of its inception. 1In the Year 1898 it opened its doors to our typhold afflicted soldiers returning from the Spanish War. Thus giving us a reason and an opportunity for celebrating its twenty years of use- fulness to our citizens to those of our neighboring ‘towns and to the strang- er entering our gates. Thirdly is not a philanthropic organization than can do and does more vital service to mankind than a hospital. And when we consider that during | the time of Its existence 12,138 pa- tients have been admitted to our hos- pital to recelve medical or surgical treatment, when we consider how many mothers have come away fron: there with their precious babe clasped to their breast, there ought not to be a man or woman who would not consider it a privilege to answer to the call for financial as- sistance for an institution that helps to “Keep the Home Fires Burning.” For that is what a hospital does fully as much as any established civic activity in a community. It restoves the ill to health and enables them to attend to “their hame fires” again. Tor the sake of the “Home Fire,” the memory of which each being carries n his heart, the soldier fights the foe, the father and son courageously at- tend to their daily round of often dan- gerous duties for wife and child, for mother, brother, or sister. To “Keep the Home Fires Burning,” our patient, courageous women each day anew grapple with their diversified and ab- sorbing problems how to accomplish the best and most for those belong- Our hospital is a four- ply combination of all these necessary qualifications. It is a home for the ill, a temporary nursery for children, a training school for nurses and home for those employed for the ben- efit of the ill. Yes, mistakes occur; they do in the best Tegulated homes! Not all leave satisfied? No, but wo must agree that to have cared for 12.- 138 patients in 20 vears deserves some first | committee credit. And if these are matters thot require remedying, let us, as loyal anc helpful citizens, put our shoulders ‘o the wheel and set the difficulty right Let us make our hospital the best hos- pital through our real interest and generous support. Yes. the third Liberty T.oan drive approaching—and the Red Cross needs our continued help, and endless appeals to help worthy causes ap- proach us from day to' day. But practice makes perfect, ‘giving in- spires giving. It is a surprise to most of us to realize. how much we can accomplish when called upon to rise to the occasion. The occasion how is our worthy, hard working, struggling hospital. Our “bit” as our “best” are needed to ‘‘Keep Tts Home Fires Burning.” Citizens, do help to this hospital benefit the best is make ever. soon as the arrangements for the whist party and the dansant are completed detailed account will be given in the papers, by the auxiliary of the woman’s hospital a hoard ELIST TORELL ESTATE Contractor, TRAU Former Building ‘Who Died Recently Left Fstate Which Totals $39,377.94.

March 21.—New democratic leaders assembled night for a reorganization banquet were greeted by a message from President Wilson, as national from President Wilson, as national head of the party, calling upon them | to rise to the test of a new time when old party slogans have lost their sig- nificance and to commit themselyves to disinterested service to humanity. In a letter presented by Secretary Tumuity, the president said the ne- cessity for his staying ‘‘on the job™ made it impossible for him to be Present, but it was clear that in the Present posture of affairs in New Jersey he could not overlook his re- sponsibility to point out what he be- lieved to be the duty of the demo- crats of the state in a great hour of | crisis. THe reviewed briefly he record of the party while he served as g ernor, declaring that in every act legislatton ‘‘we cut a clear pathw of public service” and gave the peo- | ple a government they could feel was | their own, unhampered by speciai privilege. “A time of grave crisis has come in the life of the democratic party in New Jersey the president wrote, “a time when its friends and supporters must face the facts of the situation if they would serve the cause of free government in New Jers Every sign o these terrible days of war and revolutionary change when cconomic and social forces are being released upon the world whose cffect litical seer dare venture to ture, bids us search our hearts through and through and malke them ready for the birth of a new day. we hope and believe of greater oppor- tunity and greater prosperity for th average mass of struggling men and women, and of greater safety and oppertunity for children. “The old party slogans have their significance and will mean nothing to the vater of the future, for the war is certain to change the mind of Tiurope as well the mind of America. Men everywhere are search- ing democratic principles to their hearts in order to determine their soundness, their sincerity, their adapt- ability to the real needs of their life, and every man with any vision must see that the real test of justice anad right action is presently to come as it never came before. The men in tha trenches who have been freed from the economic serfdom to which some of them had been accustomed. will ig likely, return to their homes w a new view and a new impatience all mere political phrases and will mand real thinking and sincere actior “Let the democratt~ party in New Jersey, therefore, forget vthi but the new which be called render.

The party which to this test will receive the support of theo because it deserves it.” Secretary Tumulty told the that in his opinion they had to a letter which embodied pel of democracy of this “Those principle he 5 resent the outpourings of the heart of one of the greatest leaders of dem- service re to | npon to days and tion which are of embody { it can be met have genuine sym- rises a listened the new, 10rs ocratic forces in the world at this time—a leader whose moral weight and influence Is as dominant in the councils of Burope as it is in the councils of the democratic posts in our own country.
