By this means the two institutions will be equally benefited as the Home Economics Committee plans to divide the donations Teceived equally be- tween the New Britain General Hospi- tal and the Klingberg Children's Home. 5 In order to avoid duplication of gifts, effort and time, the usual dona- tions of financial contributions, fresh vegetables, jellies, cereals, condiments groceries, fruits, chicken—dare we mention turkey and candy—will be gratefully received by the committee of the Woman's Hospital Board as usual, with the hope of an additional gift of things mentioned for the chil- dren of the Klingberg Home. The Home Economics Committee will confine itself to an appeal for canned vegetables and canned fruit ex- clusively. An exhibit of these goods secured by the above named commit- tee will be made at various grocery stores in our city, with attractive posters bearing on the matter one week before Thanksgiving and we hope will have good results. To avoid confusion packages should bear the nanie of the institution for which they are intended, and name and address of donor.
