Berlin News WANT APPOINTMENT CF VISITING NURSE Berlin Woman Says Over 200 Have Signed Petition TOWN MEETING TO ACT “fiss Chotkowski Sues For $10,000 For Collislon Damages—Legion to Parade—Grange Fair Ends Suc- cessfully Despite Storm. The flood of names that marked the circulation of the petition for a district nurse is an indication of the popularity of one of the most fmportant questions of the day which will be included in the call for town meeting, sponsors of the movement said today. Under the chairmanship of Mrs. Henry Hooker the roll call has included over 200 pames of residents who favor the idea.of the nurse and with such a large portion of the voters demand- ing that the movement be included in the call for town meeting, there is little doubt that the issue will pass when a vote is called, it is sald. For some years different groups have been actively interested in the question of providing such service to the needy and it is thought that this year will see their efforts con- summated. The present activity is sponsored by the Kensington League of Women Voters and represents the first large health measure attempted by the organization. The workers for the movement are Mrs. George . Green, Mrs. Florence fith Mrs. Amelia Green, M Mary Lardner, Mrs. John Moore Jr., Mr Clarence Baldwin, Mrs, Fred Peck, Mrs. Leon Alling and Mrs. Paul ker. Besides the committee, many members of the league are doing personal work in an effort to pass the measure. The clergy of this place are heart- {ly in favor of the proposed move and have lent thelr efforts to the workers of the drive in obtaining the vote at the town meeting. G rs. The measure calls for the follow- | fng action: The appointment of a trained nurse for service in the dis- tricts that comprise this town, the work to be under the supervision of Health Officer Roger M. Griswold; calls for the nurse to be made to Dr. Griswold or First Selectman George B. Carter; townspeople knowing of needy cases to report to cither of the above: the service to be in co- operation with the superintendent of schools for service to school chil- dren. The nurse is to make dally visits to maternity and aceutely il patients; give treatments and do surgles early treatment of cases of sickness; visit homes which contain turbercn- losis cases and treat them subject to the advice of a physician; assist in the examination of school chil- dren; visit the home of school chil- dren found to have a physical defect and advise the parents of the need and means of correcting the trouble; give proper prophylactic measures throughout the community. Tt is known that during the past year there have been several case that would have been relieved b the presence of a district nurse, especially among the poorer resi- dents who did not have the means of supporting a regular nurse, and it is thought that the citation of /thesa cases will be a big aid towards the procuring of the service. The cost of a district nurse will be approximately $3,000 for the first year and $2500 for succeeding years. The nurse's salary would be approximately $1,800 and the first 1 dressing; teach the value of | Offers grand selection for gift to the bride-to-be, the newlywed, the anniver- sary, the church bazaar, or for your own home use.

Brings $10.000 Suit Yadvega Chotkowski of Kensing- ton through the law offices of Stan- |ley Traceski of New Britain, has | brought suit against Bert and Made- lene Sandberg of Kensington for 1$10,000 damages as the result of a |recent automobile accident. The { writ fs returnable the second Tues- | day in November in Suporior court. Miss Chotkowski suffered a frac- |tured skull when she was struck by an antomobile operated by Mrs. sandberg as she stepped off a bus in | Kinsington. It was found at time that the driver did not have | any registration card and Miss Chot- | kowski’'s attorneys state that Mrs Sandberg was negligant in her driv- ing. The driver was arrested under charges of operating without a li- cense and her case has been con- | tinued until Miss Chotkowski is ahle to appear against her. The injured girl is still under doctor’s care at her home in Kensington. To Hold Parade Bolton-Kasica Post, American Le- gion, will hold a parade this evening lat 6:30 o'clock starting from the Grange Hall to advertise the post's dance that will be given at - the grange tomorrow night. An elimin- ation dance is planned as the fea- ture of the evening. All members of the post are requested to be present |at the hall this evening at 6:30 o'clock to take part in the parade. A committee from the Ladies Auxil- iary has been appointed to work with the post members in making the event a success. To Attend Convention Mrs. John Pinches, state organiz- | er of the Tnternational Sunshine so- ¥, is planning to attend the state convention to be held tomorrow in Waterbury. The convention will | meet in the First Methodist church fand Mrs. Pinches has arranged a speech dwelling on the progress made by the organization in forming new branches as well as junior chapters of the association. Fair Closes | Despite the downpour that made | the last night of the Berlin ( nge | Fair hard to attend, the organization held one of the most successful nights since the beginning of the fair. 1In raincoats and slickers and rubbers they came. In closed cars, in | open cars with curtains pinned up, in open cars that were open to the clements they swished through the welter of wet to the door of the | Grange hall and entered into wormth of the lights, shaking off water like Newfoundland dogs. Playing hard to drown out the | constant drum of the rain on the | roof, the orchestra dispelied any downheartedness that the storm had brought and the couples re- volving around the floor soon filled | the dance space. Booths called | their wares and groups tried their | luck at baffling paddle wheels and other games. Down stairs pr rves | shone upon the shelves to be de- manded by purchasers falr ladies passed out home cooking and fancy work made by fair Grangers that young men purchased without removing their eyes from the fair Grangers' faces. Merriment ranged high and as the clocks were shoved backwards, an extra hour was glven to the attendance. In a blaze of laughter the shouts and music, the Grange fair closed and the event was over for another year. The Krazy Kat Kensington boasts another attrac- tion with the arrival of Jack Giana's Krazy Kat that wandered into the store Saturday. The feline is evi- | dently a cross between a rabbit and a cat as its tail is an abbreviat- | ed ball of fluft that marks the cot- [ton tail.
