Incidentally, the directors branched off into a gen- eral discussion of the needs o% Nor- wich as concerns recreation spots for its children and youns people, and a copeiderable number of _interesting and valuable suggestions were made, as the directors outlined the possible scope of the playground movement in this city and summed up the condi- tions and resources that are to be found. It was pointed out that there is a, large number who are not provid- ed “fith the proper opportunities for enjoying baseball and other sports and pastimes and there will be added con- gestion that will result with the in- Coming of one or two thousand ex- tra employes of the Hopkins and Al- lens _company, many of them with families. The directors would be glad to see the congestion, but it was desirable to provide opportunities for the children to enpoy themselves in spite of it. In consequence several of the directors took it upon themsgives to cast about and_investigate What opportunities might be offered for the extension of the grounds. President John B. Stanton presid. ed at the meeting and the directors present were Charles H. Haskell, Thomas H. Beckley, Arthur L. Peale and John M, Lee. They decided upon July 7ch as the day to open the grounds and were unanimous in ap- proving Miss Mary F. McKay's re- &lection to the place of supervisor.

H., July 1—President Wilson tonight foucheéd a _telegraph key at Harlakenden House which sent a flash to San Francisco and opened a “Wilson day” celebration at the Panama-Pacific_exposition. His act unfurled some flags at the exposition in the presence of 15,000 people. With Wo advertise exantly - asitis B A Clearance Sale that is different the Thamesville school grounds and suggestions as to supplying this de- ficlency were made. The need of a playground at High street was urged but the school ground is not large enough. There is no room short of Summit street and Round Pond ,and this would make an ideal place, but objections had been made on the ground that it was too public there. Various other places were talked of and it s possible the assoslation may be able to provide increased facilities, including a place to play ball some- where in that vicinity. On account of health conditions in’ the neighbor- hood it was decided to keep the Ho- bart Avenue grounds closed 2t least temporarily and so the four grounds to open mext week aye Lake street, the Falls, Greeneville and Pearl street. Arrangements were made to get the apparatus over from the almshouse Where it has been stored and to get new equipment or have repairs made Where needed. An offer was received from the Sa- chems of the Falls and the Yantic baseball team to play a benefit game on July 5th, if the Academy diamond could be sccured, and it was accept- ed_provisionally.

The state of Connecticut, and par- ticulerly the agricultural experiment station at New Haven, has for many years done useful work in the ex- posure and repression of food adul- teration. The 19th report of the chem- ical labratory of the station, just is- sued, gives in detail the work of the past year. The chief food products examined, including 1,541 ~ samples, were dis- cuits, crackers, laxative foods, dia- betic foods, wheat, bran, butter, stor- age eggs, milk, temperance drinks, and vinegar. Seventy-two new analyses of special diabetic foods are reported, thus bringing up to date the station's work on this important and much- abused class of foods. The present report, coupled with that of 1913, gives analyses of practically all of the dia- betic foeds sold in this coumtry and is of great value to those physicians who wish to provide accurate dletarie for their diabetic patients. Among the drug products examined, 377 in number, were bay rum, bella- donna plasters, blackberry brandy, malt extract and 130 proprietary medi. cines. The examination of these pro- prietary medicines takes up over half of the Teport and should prove of great alue to the citizens of this state. The list includes many of the preparations most widely sold and advertiseq in Connecticut. The report states that “possibly 20 of these may be passed as possessing some merit,” the remaining 110 being simple drugs eold under fancy proprietary name at an extrava- gent price, remedies absolutely worth: less for the diseases specified, or reme. dies containing habit forming or other dangerous drugs. The cold analytical data stand in startling contrast with the extravagant claime made for many of these products. A feature of the report of much in- terest is the summary given of the 19 annual inspections made by the sta- tion. These have ‘included over 26,000 sampies of food products, and the data are given in such a way as to show the relative purity of the different foods ‘Wwhen inspections were first begun in 1896 compared with that found in re- cent years. The simple foods show an average increase in purity from 59 to 90 per cent., while the compound foods, such as hams, jellies, table sauces, sode. water syrups, soft drinks, flavoring ex- tracts, etc., show only a very slight increase, from 27 to 34 per cent. These latter products, however, while gener- ally no more pure than they were 19 years ago, are as a rule honestly I beled at the present time, so that the consumer has full opportunity of knowing just what he is f man who was found last Sunday after he had been missing for a week, is t recovering from his experience of without food while he was hid- away among the tree stumpe where he was found near Murphy's St Byetilin, ) Food and stimulant that were given him immediate ly after he was found resored him at that time end he has grown constantly stronger as he has continued to take nourishment since then.

These have béen made by the work of the Salvation Army in locating peo- ple in the agemcy of employment for those out of work etc., and it is fondly hoped that when this report is read and considered that the needed sum will s00on be realized in order to carry on the work among the peedy and unfortunate of your city Street services on Bath street will be conducted on Wednesedays and Saturday evenings in good weather and your cooperation at the service will_help to carry on the work of reaching the outcast and drunkard.

For their midweek change of bill on Thursday, the Davis theatre had Will Oakland and his singing_quartette as the vaudeville feature. The reception these tuneful singers were accorded left no doubt that the bill can be called one of the favorites of the sea- son. Mr. Oakland’s lyric tenor and the voices of his associate singers were heard in a programme that captured the houses at matinee and evening. The first chapter of a new American serial picture, called The Diamond from the Sky, was shown on Thursday, in which Irving Cummings and Lottie Pickford, sister of the great Mary, ap- peared. A two-reel Keystone comedy with Chester Conklin was another fea- ture and the bill was a sterling one. Allowed to Leave New London.
