Fanning, a Long Islander, who shipped with the Lutzen as she lay off Ambrose channel, told it. Aroused by a member of the crew asking protection, Fanning found a table smashed in the forecastle and two of the crew intoxicated. Kirk entered with a revolver and tried to handcuff Felix. Felix resisted and three shots were fired. Felix died shortly afterward. “He received a Christian burial," said Fanning, “I conducted the serv- STARK SUES WISKS Constable Brings Action for $1,000 Agninst Woman and Son as After- math of Alleged Tobacco Theft.

Stark has brought suit against Mrs. Mary Wisk and Walter ‘'Wisk, her son, for dam- ages of $1,000, arising out of an al- leged tobacco theft from Martin Grabowski's farm in Cromwell sev- eral months ago in which Wisk was implicated. Property to the amount of $1,300, owned by Mary Wisk, has been placed under attachment. Wisk was sued in Middlesex su- perior court and judgment rendered against him some time ago. Con. stable Stark, at the opening- of that suit, had attached Wisk's Republic auto truck, but returned it to Wisk after receiving a receipt from Mrs, Wisk for the amount involved in the attachment, which was $800. The judgment was not satisfied, re-deliv- ery having been refused and in the meantime the car had been allowed to depreciate to the extent that the constable regards it as worthless and now brings suit for $1,000, Y.

Undernourished children are brought up to par physically by hav- ing their diet changed, and super- vision of certain phases of the fresh air schoolfi form a portion of her work. Miss Logan's work has had consid- erable result in teaching parents the importance of giving young children milk to drink instead of tea and cof- fee, Today this society has about 220 cases on record, about 61 being in in- stitutions. ~ About 60 new cases are reported every day. ’ Another important factor is the clinic in Booth's block, where under- nourished and tuberculor children are examined and treated. It was this clinic which first started the move- ment which resulted in the New Brit- ain dental clinic. At the request of Miss Logan 30 tuberculor children defective and neglected teeth, pyor- rhea, cavities, etc. Dr. J. 8. Irving, who made the examination, gave it ad his opinion that the teeth condi- tion was responsible for the tuberculor condition. Dr, Frank Zwick, at that time chairman of the board of health, be- came interested, the New Britain Den- tal society got back of the movement and a public drive gave the clinic the start, eventually getting it into the city budget. The fresh air camp at Burlington is another valuable adjunct to the fight to stamp out tuberculosis in this city. Many youngsters have gone to this camp, pale, weak, emaciated and undernourished, to return health- ier, happier, a rosy glow of vitality in their cheeks and considerably jn- creased in weight. As a result of the items of proper diet, sanitation and healthful habits taught the chil- dren at this camp, whole families have benefited. The Tuberculosis Relief society has asked for $4,195 of the drive for $50,- 000 to be conducted by the United Community corporation beginning April 2.
