The cost of transportation amounted to $9.80, and all visits totalled $10.64. Tuberculosis Work. Several local tuberculosis cases have been under the care of Miss Heine- man, and some patients have been re- moved to hospitals for treatment, One case was treated in the Crippled Home in Newington. The home f{s now reported as being over-crowded and there can be no more patients re- ceived in that institution for some time. Miss Heineman has been very at- tentive to the children in the Gram- mar schools. She makes it a practice to call at the school weekly in order to report any cases of sickness to the teacher. Her work is greatly appre- iated by Principal Orrin L. Judd, who eports that since the work of the isiting Nurse has been instituted in 'lainville, there has been a decided lecrease in absentees at the school, lne to sickness. Miss Heineman has een called on many occasions to ach children during Sundays.

PLAINVILLE, CONN, The Red Cross branch in this town however, has urgently requested the people to aid them in their work and reported that some means must be taken within a short time to raise funds in order to carry on the splendid work. The present income is not sufficient to carry on the operations of the nurse for the present year. Any private subscriptions would be greatly appreciated and acknowledged ind the near future will probably see some sort of a campaign launched to raise money. Bandages or any other irticles which may be used convenient- ly by Miss Henieman would also be gladly received. Donations of that sort aid in saving money for the pur- chase of gauze, of which there is much used. The telephone connec- tion has been listed under the Plain- ville heading in case any person de- sires a hurry call to the office. Awards For Babies was also voted at the meeting last night to award a two dollar and a half gold piece to the most normal boy or girl attending the welfare clinic which commences next week, Thursda At this conference, Miss Spence, assistant to Dr. 1. T. Black, of th2 state department of health, will be in charge and render able assist- records of the infants in attendance. Local Doctors To Aid Practically all the local physicians have announced their intention of aiding in the welfare clinic. Dr. C. lLamphere of the state board of health at Hartford will also help and during the sessions, will keep the records of the infants in attendancs. He will award the prizes at the end of the clinic in the fall. A record attendance of mothers is Jooked forward to next Thursday af- ternoon at the town hall in order to meet Miss Spence, who has so readily consented to come to Plainville. The clinic will open at 2 o'clock and close at 4 o'clock. The firemen have voted to turn over their rooms in the town hall for the use of the mothers dur- ing the session.

The local High school people have lagged behind and this is attributed to the fact that there is no High school in Berlin, At present there are about pupils attending out of town High schools and this number is A steadily increasing from year to year, ithe speaker added. Mr. Showalter also will cost the town of Berlin $15,000 next year for tuftion to New RBritain in addition to the $1,700 for transpor- tation. He also said that a careful study of the local situation has shown that by combining the Junior and Senior High schools in one building it could be maintained at a cost of $100 per pupil a year, The speaker asserted, however, that the above price would not be po bic if the two schools were not hous together.
