Phone 1322- LOCAL YOUNGSTERS ARE AT BIG FAIR States Exhibition The New Britain youngsters who are participating in the Junior Achievement exhibit at the tern States league exposition, which open- ed in Springfleld yesterday, are having the time of their ung lives living in the great outdoors, camping, eating the best the land affords and exhibit- ing samples of their handiwork be- tween times to admiring throngs of people. A staff representative of The Herald, who visited the exposition vesterday was surprised to find that, with tl.> possible exception of Spring- fleld, New Britain seemed to be more fully represented than any other com- munity. Besides a club, represented by Francis Bradley, Oscar Steinke and Adaline Hulburt, of th aily tion hible school, in charge of Mrs. G. A. Porter, one composed of Alton Brown, Ralph Crandall and Monroe Harwood represents the independent teams, of which there are two ex- hibits, and a team composed of John McCarthy, Milford Muecke and Ed- ward Frawley represent the city play- grounds. Miss Esther Miller, who made such a brilliant success in the city playgrourd work this past sum- mer in introdncing the junior achieve- ment movement, and who is secretary treasurer of the present Junior Achievement council in the city, has charge of her group and Miss Lillian Williams has charge of the indepen, dent group. Mrs. Porter, who has charge of the vacation bible school, is the president of the local council. Five Local Exhibits. There are five exhibits from New Britain. The playground exhibit and the exhibit of the independent clubs combine to occupy one large booth and show an elaborate display of toys, fancy work, rubber mending jobs and some remarkable - specimens of doll hats. Numerous interesting photo- graphs of a number of different clubs in the city, such as the Trinity Doll to Mother, Up and Doing. Flying Eagle, Jolly Workers, etc., are on dis- play here as well. On the opposite side of the same booth, facing the next aisle is found the Daily Vacation Bible school work. Here again are seen some clever examples of rubber mending and an intelligent young man from the school is on hand at all times to tell those interested just how the work is done. A second exhibit on this side, making New Britain exhibit number four, is a model of the daily vacation bible school by Rev. Fred- erick H. Wilkins, the founder of that school and its superintendent ever since. Rev. Mr. Wilkins, who leaves this city next month for Buffalo, has been authorized by the Eastern States league to organize the first daily va- cation bible school in the city of Buf- falo. He is attending the exposition, driving there each day from this city, s0 as not to interfere with his church duties, at the special request and In- vitation of the Eastern States league In another booth, which was not quite ready for exhibition when the exposition opened yesterday, but which, with the assistance of Mrs. Porter was made into quite an inter- esting display, was that of the Junior Achievement club organized among the members of Troop Boy Scouts of by the scoutmaster, Freder- ick L. Fay, director of religious edu- cation at the South church, and Wal- ter L. Williams, of 53 Hart street, who, with his wife, has been very active in achievement work since the founding of the vacation bible school. This ex- hibit is confined mainly to woodwork- ing and shows some remarkable ex- amples of skill. Toys and wooden ornaments which at the same time are usefu!, attracted ccnsiderable atten- tion and were second to none in the emtire exposition in quality and work- manship.

It is one grant panoramic | continuation of fun and frolic. It is a continuous circus with the animals, the horse races, the midway, the soda pop men, the hot dog and sandwich booths, the ice cream cones, the Boy Scout drills, with their rustic cabins, the toy cotfages into which they can walk and play, the real live fish, such as they often see on the family dinner table, now swimming around in glass tanks ingenious filled with running water; all these and many other won- derful things delight the children every da The kiddies are living in an honest- to-goodness up-to-the-very-last-min- ute camp. They are provided with comfortable beds of the most ap- proved style, a profusion of heavy woolen blankets and a daily program which keeps them exercising in the open air and teaches them, in the form of a week's vacation, valuable | points in personal hygicne which they never can forget. Hot and cold water are supplied continuously in the camp shower baths and a field hospital on the ground takes care of all possible minor injuries, such as cut fingers, stone bruises, stomach ache, etc. Pleased With Food. And the food. “Gee,” said one en- thusiastic youngster, “you Jjest ought to see the eats,” and the menu as described makes the hearer'’s mouth water to hcar the youngsters tell about it. Sunday dinner had for its| center dish nothing less than old- tashioned, New England style, roast chicken. Chicken soup started the meal and was followed by the chicken itself, accompanied by large ears of | roasted corn, mashed potatoes, celery, bread and butter, cookies, a choice of coffee, cocoa or milk and ice cream in individual bricks. And the best part of it is there is no limit to the amount provided. One voung man from New Britain is said to| have been seen passing back his | plate for the fourth “cargo” of ice cream and chicken. *“And say," said Mrs. Porter, “they certainly know how to feed these children in the way the children like best. Just think, cereal with peaches and cream, bacon and, eges, apple pie and milk for breakfast. And they let the children eat to their heart's content. The only think I'm afraid of.” she continued, “is when thcy get home their parents won't be able to provide food to sat- isfy them, they will be spoiled for common meals. But,” she added, “for fear the rature of the food might be questioned, “they get nothing but good, wholesome food and the very best in quality Among the New Britain people who visited the camp were Mrs. Fred Hewitt, who was there Saturday night, W. L. Willlams, who was on the grounds Saturday morning, and yes- terday Thomas Lacey of this city was present. As for tunate through triends ROYAL ARCANUM MEBTING. New Britain council, Royal Ar- canum, will hold its regular meeting on Tuesday night. Matters of in- terest to all will be taken up. Past Grand Regent William E. Fanning, of Hartford, will pay an official visit to the council, representing the grand regent. A social time will follow the meeting. Refreshments will be served.

IS DANGEROUS MONTH This Month, October and November Show More Accidents Than Any Other in Year. ! Hartford, Sept. 19.—Saptember, {October and November stand out as the worst months in the vear for au- tomobile accidents. Records of the motor vehicle department show that nearly f the 230 motor vehicle fatalities in Connecticut last year oc- cured ~in that period. November {took more lives than the other two months. This is attributed to the fact that weather conditions are more ‘danger- ous for driving at that season of the vear. Skidding is common under bad weather conditions, especially on leaves in the fall. Fogs are frequent and windshields are more apt to be dimmed. One of the reasons for choosing a week in September for the present Safety-First effort was to try to head off a large percentage of the usual fall accidents. Bad weather calls for more care, without at the same time, providix any criterion as to just what to zuard against or how to drive, Motor Vehicle Commissioner Stoeckel pointed out today. Heavy rains or snow dim the windshicld and obscure the view of the operator and make the condi- tions of the road slippery. They are causes which cannot be corrected by human agency and the only way in which acdidents into which the weather eénters can be lessened is by the adoption of extra precautions which shall have in them ample fac- tor of safety. The driver must go slower, must not drive into chances and must remember the responsibil- ity which is on him. Skiddnig is not so common in the winter as in the fall, because the driver expects the dangerous condi- tions then and takes care for them.

Eack year several are killed and many in. jured, usually at night, because o fauilure to raise the umbrella and look around. Bad weather calls for redubleé care from the pedestrian. He has no dimmed glass or obscured view which he cannot guard against and a burden of care is on him. The remedy lies in increased care to meet unusual conditions and must be ap- plied by all users of highways and streets alike. @ Thousands Thank Dr. Leonhardt who discovered Hem-Roid, the com- mon-sense Pile remedy.
