Calling her maid, she instructed-her to wash the dress in Lux. In 30 min- utes the dress, dried quickly by electric fans, looked like new! “Every girl knows how marvel- ous her frocks look cleansed in Lux,” Miss White said—‘“and our own wardrobe department uses Lux regu- larly. Tests prove clothes can be kept gorgeously new looking ever so much longer with Lux.

Asked if she had any idea as to his whereabouts or his reason for failing to appear in court, she replied that she knew nothing whatever about the matter. County Detective Edward J. Hickey was asked whether the state would make any effort to apprehend Higgins and he replied that the usual course In such cases was to look to the bondsman to surrender the principal. Unless other proce- dure is decided on later, it is be- lieved no particular attempt will be made by the authorities to locate Higgins.

The policemen, who were in hiding while the transaction was being made, found the money on Higgins and he is sald to have admitted his guilt. Gorsko, who is sald to have driven Higgins to the mill, was held as an accesory and both were bound over to superior court after a hear- ing in Avon town court. Bonds in Higgins' case were set at $2,000 and in Gorsko's case at $1,000.

Leak, superintendent of [the Con+ ~ticut State hospital at | Middletown, speaking before the So- | cial Workers' club at the Y. W. C. ... | this noon. The speaker outlined the | constructive policy regarding Con- I necticut’s mental health problems which he worked out at the stion of the scc etary of the s board of finance and control, ward I%. Hall. Dr. Leak belcver that mental health is as much a medical prob- |lem as physical health and that no | new departments are needed to pr | vide proper facilities for improvi | the mental health of the state. The | existing mental hygicne division of |the state department of health, with |some necessary increase in staff. |could be equipped to handle the | problem as outlined. The first and most imperative need !in the state, according to Dr. Leak, | |is a sufficient number of beds for patients in state institutions. There lis also a necd for a new hospital to | care for the mentally ill and for new | buildings at the Mansfield State | Training school and hospital for the} | mentally defective. A hearing on | both these problems is scheduled {to be heard at the state capitol to- morro | The essentially preventive emphu- | |'sis in Dr. Leak's program, however, | | of the mental | hygiene division of the state depart- | | ment of health to include one full time psychiatrist, one full time psy chologist and two or three psychia- tric social workers. The department | would work for the general dissem ination of education along mentu| hyglene lines and would establish clinics where they are needed | Dr. Leak feels that it is of pri | mary importance to discover the mental problems of the young: people of school age. Through th ommendations would b made after a thorough study of each retarded child. The speaker was of the opinion that clinics established by the state should not be definitely continued. After a campaign for popular education along mental hy- | giene lines in a given town, the doc- tor suggested that the state found a | clinic there and maintain it long | enough to act as a demonstration, | soliciting the ad of town officials in operating it. The demonstration | should provide opportunities for correlating the activites of all inter- | ested sociul agencies in their mental health efforts. Ihe responsibility for providing the necessary social serv- | ice would rest on the town after the demonstration, and if possible, the community should provide a psy- chiatrist for the continuance of the | work of the clinic. | Miss Hester Crutcher, executive secretary of the Connecticut Society |ot Mental Hygiene, also spoke on | the work of clinics. She traced back the history of clinics from its start in 1914 and gave a brief outline o1 the work accomplished up until lately. Miss Crutcher told the gathering that too many people expect the clinics to work miracles or perform | wonders. Too many use the clinics | as the dumping ground for all their difficulties. The workers in the clinics do their uttermost to dis- cover the troubles of the children to them, However, many - parents fail to heed the ad- ‘h is given them by the clinic workers and then wonder their child fails to improve ely they tell others that the clinics are useless. According to the :peaker, the do all in their power to ap- proach and handle the child in the best method that is known. The work of social workers in the com- munity is made more effective through clinics. Miss Crutcher brought out many of the facts used by Dr. Leak in his uldress.
