A. Zegeer of Jewett City writes The Bulletin as follows: Under date of Jan. 15th The Bulletin has the following editorlal: “Bvery man does not find pleasure in having his name in the pa- per. It looks well in a marriage no- tice, but there are many places in which it is positively annoying.” In proof of the above, in another there is the following statement: is indignant at his treatment, as he says he loves the girl and belicves she love him, but is influenced by her brother 'Abraham, He claims the brother was the cause for the changing of the wedding dates so many times.” S far as the above concerns my sis- ter "Alice, Joseph does not by his very acts show a very loving spirit. And as regards myself, the melodramas are weird burlesques, so far as any con- sideration of truth is concerned. The relations claimed by the plain- #Iff to exist between the partles, will undoubtedly show a different state of facts, and in view of the result I re- frain’from making any comments pub- licly as to the merits of the case it- self.

Nov. 20, 1908, and conducted by Musical | X%, EXCELLENT WORK Department of flnihd Workers has Accomplished Much as Shown by Report of Social Worker Emily S. iiamblen. — ' At the meeting of the City mission committee of the United Workers on Friday there was received the report for tne year from Miss Emily S. Ham- blen, social worker. She has complet- ed her services here and gone to other fields. Her work was thoroughly ap- reciated by the committee, her excel- ent power of organization baving ac- complished much, and it was with much regret that the committee Te- ceived her resignation. The report gives a comprehensive re- view of the year's work in the City mission department and the committee feels that she has given them a broad- er view of the work than they ever had bafore. The report 4n part is as follows: Nineteen hundred and eight having been a year of extraordinary depres- sion, much rellef work, with its ay- companying requirements of investi- gation and a large amount of detail labor, demanded from the social work- ers time which they would have cho: en to give to organizing and construc- tive work. The aspect of the work, which ob- viously assumes the form of a public responsibility, is the spectale of so many hitherto self-supporting families seeking public and private aid. Here we must recognize the fact that em- ployment is the one and only solution of the difficulty, It preserves the in- tegrity and seif-respect of the family, it spares them the humiliation of be- ing “Investigated,” it renders pauper- ization impossible, it gives in the home that atmosphere of self-reliance and independence in which the children should grow up. Did Work at Park. Our most fortunate arrangement was that made last spring with the com- missioners of Mohegan park. By this we have been able to apply the work test to every able-bodied man and to save from disaster some familles which under no circumstances would kave been willing to receive alms. During the spring months our men cut and piled about eighty cords of wood which came to the United Work- ers in return for labor done and has since been sold. The commissioners kindly gave land for gardens that mwight have been remunerative, as they are In other places, if the long drought and their unprotected location had not been too serious obstacles to success, As it was, much labor was given in return for aid which the United Workers could not have re- fused, During the summer and fall months men were supplied in Bhifts for the work of developing the park, In return for which the United Workers have received considerable donations from the park commissioners. This co-op- eration, we can safely say, has been satisfactory on both sides, and is il- lustrative of what might be done to- ward an economical and educational plan of relief if all the social agencies of the city would come to & common understanding. The park work was given to heads of families; for unmarried men little could be found except occasional places on farms or hours’ work at the coal yards in return for meal tickets. Many who are not tramps have earned their dinners in this way during the past year. In fdct, the ratio of real tramps now visiting us to those who came In the fall of 1907 is about one to ten. It is well within bounds to say that of the meal tickets used two- thirds were earned. In the matter of labor, women and children have been in the main dealt with on the same lines as with men. For nearly al] clothing supplied either a nominal sum has been charged or an equivalent in labor requested. The women's sewing class has had a many sided usefulness, The boys and girls have rende‘r, their returns for favors given by ing errands and by mending grain- bags, The money received from the bags and from the sale of garments has gone Into new material and shoes. Other work" given has been night nursing, household assistance, cob- bling, lodging, baby tending, dress and suit making at home, etc. One Lousehold supplies us with a laundry class where women not profiicient may take lessons any Friday afternoon. In short, with each family a busi- ness account is kept which is bal- anced and shown at the end of the month. Our people have no fear of being pressed for what they cannot do, and we feel that they are getting a training which no looser method of rellef would give. The method does not simplify the work of the depart- ment, but it systematizes it and di- rects it to profitable ends. Nurse from State Hospital. Through the kindness of Dr. Pollock of the state hospital, the United Workers have had since last February the dally assistance of a visiting nurse, This work has been of inestimable benefit to us in enabling us to know our people better and to help them more effectivelyff It is hoped that the time is not far distant when most pa- tients may be asked for the nominal sum which should be charged, Words of appreciation are due the dentists of Norwich for the amount of work they have done for our people without remuneration. At al] times our requests for help have been granted, but during the summer, special hours were devoted to our patlents, whereby we secured in all about one hundred and fifteen appointments and had the teeth of nearly seventy patlents, chiefly children, put in perfect order. In some cases better general health has been the evident result, If this beginning of dental inspec- tion and care should gro wto the pro- portions of a denta) clinic, as has been proposed, the originators would be much gratified If the business princi- ple could also rule here, a nominal sum being charged for all work. Even during the summer a few collections were made for material used and al- most all brushes were paid for. In our statistics we do not tnclude patients sent to the dispensary, but its removal to Washington street has been of much advantage to our work. Our people have received there great care and kindness. In our search for causes of social disability the matter of following the health of our people has sedmed very important to us, and the physicians of Norwich have, very genmerally, co- operated with us in the most kindly spirit. In some cases of obscure dis- ease the patients have had as scien- tific care as could be given under any circumstances, Friendly Visiting Department. A word must be sald about our friendly visiting department, The ac- tive list is not nearly as long as the importance of the work demands. If assistance to families not able to bear their own burden alone is to be given effectively and in any other than a hand to mouth fashion, the family problem must be studied in the home. The policy In each case should be carefully thought out and judiciously applied, ‘This is possible only when some one person Is acting as a friend. A friend can do what no other insti- tution can accomplish. In one case a young Irish woman, wife and mother, was made comforta- ble in circumstances and easy in her mind fer two months before her death by consumption. She had lived through months of suffering before the friend- ly vieitor had become interested in the family. X Another family, owing to the non- employment of tather and the se- > CITY MISSION rious.illness of the mother, seemed al most on the point of dissolution when our friendly visitor began her calis. But through her efforts the mother was so cared for in institutions and at home that she regained her health, the family wag removed from unsani- tary to healthful surroundings, and the home wtas held together until the father again secured regular employ- ment, ~The family is now a most promising one, In another home, a young girl who was helpless as the result of an ac- cident was sent by a friend to an in- stitution where she is being restored by medical treatment to physical effi- ciency and where, under instruction, she s revealing such talents as to foreshadow for her even a brilliant fu- ture. These are only random exam- ples of what this quiet work of friend- ly visiting may do: B Records Carefully Kept. All records are carefully, though privately kept, with a view of accur- acy up to date. No order is ever giv- en without an inquiry regarding the latest facts in the case, Stories often come to us regarding the unworthiness of families whom we are assisting, and we never fail to follow them up to the last haunt of rumor; but much often- er than not we have found that they have risen from an imperfect knowl- edge of the facts or had birth in some old circumstances which we could not in fairness take into account. The routine work is now divided into de- rartments which are self-moving un- der confident assistants, and no long- er require detail work and constant supervision of the head worker. No weach department of class and club work is under the direction of trained supervisors who have as defi- nite aims in the courses they are giv- ing as we look to find in the instruc- tions of the schools. One noteworthy development of our system has been the formation of the people's singing class under the conduct of Mr. Geer. In closing, the changes must again be rung on the word co-operation. A great public duty lies at hand to be done, New elements have entered In- to the civic life. If des d, or even ignored, they will bec menace to the community. Bitterness and un rest will gro wout of gegregation, mal- adjustment, mutual misunderstanding and class or racial prejudice_ A rich- er and higher general life will inevita- bly resuit from a reciprocal attempt to comprehend the other point of view and to form judgments with absolute justice. The still unassimilated pop- ulation of Norwich has much to give to the city’s industrial, scientific, ar- tistic and religious life. What more irspiring task than the one of finding and developing its concealed possibil- itles? One generation must not in our eye scondemn the next. Perhaps the most unproductive pair of foreigners in the city have a child whose teach- ers declare him to be the brighest pu- pil ever entered In their classes. And to leave that unfolded life Is one of the chlefest regrets of your worker as she severs her connection with your great work. NORWICH HAD SMALL DEATH RATE IN DECEMBER. Thirty-One Deaths, with an Average of 13.4 Per Thousand — Marriages and Births in November, The monthly report of the state board of health shows that there were 1,273 deaths during the month.

Growth and Development in Norwich in the Past Will Be Shown at Board of Trade Meeting. At the meeting of the Board of Trade on Monday ovenlnf lantern slides will be exhibited showing the growth and development of Norwich in the past from several “village sites.” A number of old yrints showing vari- ous parts of the city have been photo- graphed and lantern slides made. These old views show unocsupled land where now are houses and business blocks. Original drawings and early photo- graphs have been loaned from which slides have been made. The geographic conditions of Nor- wich will be discussed and certain suggestions made in regard to the con- trol and guidance of future building and works of public improvement which may well be kept in mind by the Norwich Bosrd of Trade in stimu- lating the enlargement and improve- ment of greater Norwich.

Olympic Hall a Pretty Sight for Car- nival—A Great Success. Olymplc hall was flled to overflow- ing 1’333., evening with a fashionably dressed company attending the carni- val and reception given by Prof. J. J. Kennedy and ‘his dancing classes, as- sisted by Miss Lena Rogers. The bril- liantly lighted hall was attractively decorated with ropes of white, .aven- der and purple paper forming & cam’py under the ceiling. Under the direction of James TF. Drew, the Cadillac orchestra rendered a fine concert programme before the grand march at 8.30 o'clock. The con cert numbers were tne follow!g: March, Steel King (St. Clair); over- ture, Morning, Noon and_ Night (Suppe); selection, Medley Popular Alrs (Remick). The(pwrrumme opened with a pret- ty grand march in which fifteen couples, led by Mr. and Mrs. George Lambert, marched down from the stage to the floor, forming an aisle down the hall, through which marched in the remainder of the class, led by Professor Kennedy and Miss Lena Rogers and two tiny tots, Raymond Harris and Viola Carey. The march was carried out very effectiyely and opened the first half of the following rogramme of class numbers: E Grrl:lnd march; Rainbow dance, Miss Irene Everett; Dutchess; hornpip Master John MeNally, Miss Viola ekip rope dance, M walta; castanet dance, Miss Jennie Swatzburs ym- pic tow step; clog and jig, Misses Rogers and Banfleld; Boston; parasol dance, Miss Hattle Sprague; buck dance, Miss Nellle Brady; five step: conversation dance, Master Raymond Harris, Miss Viola Carey: two step; cadet dance, Miss Gladys Reeves; hornpipe, Misses Banfleld, Walz, Swatzburg, Sprague, Everett —and Reeves; lanciers; serpentine dance, Miss Everett; snow dance. All the varied dances were per- formed with great credit to the little participants and their instructor, and encores were numerous, falling to the clog_and jig Of Misses Rogers and Banfleld, and_especially to one cute little couple, Master Harrls and Miss Carey, who were recalled several suc- cessive times. Miss Everett's grace- ful serpentine dance was also a favor- ite, and all the little dancers were showered with flowers by their admir- ers. The first half closed with the fea- ture number, the snow dance, in which a pretty effect was obtained by letting fine paper fall from the ceiling on the dancers. All the solo numbers were made more effective by being danced in the spotlight, operate dby Mesers. Young and Lucas of Sheedy’s theater, Significant testimony to "the popu- larity of Professor Kennedy was giv- en as the first half closed, when Mrs. Dwight Reeves, in behalf of the class, presented him a handsome solid gold seal ring, suitably engraved. The pro- fessor made a brief acknowledgment in_appropriate words. For the balance of the evening after the intermission a programme of nine numbers for the class and thelr friends was carried out, The committees for the evening: Master of ceremonies, Georgs P. Poole reception commit- tee, George Lambert, William Caples Herman_Jackel, Jr. George P. Poole George Leonard, Archibald Buchanan arrangement committee, Harry Steb- bins, Eugene Bush, H, H. Wilmarth.
