The t-ouble started when Falcetti started to chase one of the Varriale fldrer off his grounds. In the fight that followed Ialcetti was struck n the shoulder with a brick. He then retained Cyril F. Gaffney to bring suit. The brick, however, brought his diverced wife to his aid to nurse him through the injury. The wife, Mrs. Virginia Bacomo, occupies half of the house in which Falcetti lives, the two never having divided their property after the divorce. Mrs. HBacomo supported her former hus- tand’s clalm with a nursing bill for 4250 and $100 board. When asked 'y Judge Ellis it she had become reconciled to her former husband after he got well, the womay an- swered that she was not crazy.

Child Health Day Indossed Hearty indorsement of the Con- necticut Child Health Day, May 1, was'given yesterday by Philo T. Pratt, state commissioner of agri- culture. He urged that theé program outlined for safeguarding health of the next generation be followed out not only in the cities but also m the rural districts as a means of building a stronger, heaithier man- hpod and womanhood in the state. “Child Health Day” coming as it does on the opening day of Connec- ticut Egg week gives the people a double opportunity to learn about the necessary foods in a child's diet,” sald Commissioner Pratt. “Eggs, I believe. have a distinctive place in the diet. Like meat, their protein content is high. Like milk, they contain most of the essentials for growth and repair of the body tissues.” May 1 is also known as “National Fund Health Day” and a dance and a card party is being given by the Kensington League of Women Vot- ers at the new storehouse of the Berlin Auto Sales company for the benefit of the Visiting Nurse. o y 11l in Meriden Miss Mary E.

George Wells wiclded the baton as song leader and guided his youthful fol- lowing through a maze of harmony. All of the music was familiar to the older people who will remember many of the old folks concerts of the past.
