UNITED CHARITIES, Helpful Work of the Year Is Shown in Report Given at Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the United Charities association was held in thelr rooms ol Valley strect Tuesday eve- ning at 8 o’cl e first business was the reading of reports, in which some interesting facts were produced. President M. E. Lincoln in part gave a brief report The report of Plerre Laramie, treas. urer, showed receipts of $1,8: and expenses of $1,718.79, with a balance of $119.27. About $1,050 of the ex- penses went for salary, rent, etc., and $600 directly to the poor. Some $50 of the first item, however, was for permanent improvements, for which there will be no need this year. In addition some $671 worth of sup- plies’ furnished by the town were dis- tributed and nearly $2,000 of garments distributed, which Were contributed by the donors. Besides this, about one-half of Miss Austin's time was spent for the town, so that one-half of her salary only ‘should be figured against the United Charities organi- zatlon itself. ss Austin’s Report. Miss Austin gave a_comprehensive report of the work of the year, which follows in part: At the time the work was taken up 28 families wero referred by the town for groceries. - Some objected to call- ing T9r their grocertes and in. the case of a widow who was working in the miil- the objection seemed reasonable and arrangements were made aoccord- ingiy. The list of articles of food were changed as the families became Detter known to us. Flour was given instead of bread. Rice, oatmeal, prunes and other articles of food were se- lected especially for the nourishment of developing children. The number aided by the town the last five months averaged six, four widows being aided regularly. When these 28 families were refer- red they were investigated not with the idea of finding something detri- mental in order that we might not |and have to give assistance, but in order that we might better know all the Te- sources and cf stances of their lives and with this knowledge help them to plan for a self-respecting in- dependence. In_ some instances the income was double, even triple what it was given at first, and to all ap- pearances, this statement in the home was true. It was some little time be- fore it was discovered that a family supposedly living on the $7 a week earned by the daughter, had a weekly income of $22. It toak time to get ail this information because the income came from such different sources. An- other woman was living with her sup- posedly poor father in a rear base- ment; she was able to work, as were her brothers and sisters, and the fath- er was found to own the house. deceptiens are not so much the fault of the people as they are the fault of the old idea that what can be obtained from the town is clear gain, The families in which thers were ablebodfed men were visited first and they were told positively that the town did not intend longer to support their familles; that they must get to work at once and if they could not find a job that the Unitea Charities would et one for them. This we were able to do in some instances. One man Who sald he was sick was persumded to have a doctor and soon went to work.. . He has been working ever since receiving no assistance from the town, Another man who recelved $i78 in |id food last year from the town and $127 during the six months before.the or- ganization of the assoclation went to first call He had beon - drinking: guite heavily, but now his pay is small and he says when lis bills are paid he has nothing left for.drink.

All no-plul cases are being investigated as well aa other -institutional onses The Infants’ Milk Station. The benefit of the milk station is hard to estimate, as the committes s interested not only in keeping babies alive but in giving them the right start that they may develop into a healthy| maturity. Children properly nourish- ed stand a better chance of keeping out of the jail and almshouse than rickety, illy nourished bables. The nurse found the mothers ready to learn and willing to be taught. They learned how to recognize symptoms and when to call a doctor as well as how to feed and bathe the babe. Many of our mothers wrapped the little ones in swaddling clothes and covered them with feather ticks, but before the three monthe’ work of the milk station was over they had adopted American methods. At first it was hard to make them understand the value of the weekly canferences, but the many help- ful suggestions which they carried home proved the value of these con- ferences and the mothers were quick to spread the news. One hundred and sixty-nine bables were examined and one hundred and seventy-three were under the nurse's constant supervision. Dr. Simonds gave his time every Thursday afternoon when the bables were examined and referred to the family physician if necessary. The certified bottled milk was sold from the station at a price varying with the family income. It was cooled in ice and carried home in a large tin pail containing emough ice to last through the day. One thousand two hundred and eighty-three quarts were sold during the three months. While e sannot estimate the far-reaching results of the milk station, records show that the infant mortality for the three months was reduced haif. Domestic Science Classes. The sewing classes as well as cook- ing classes are greatly appreciated by the girls who are gathering cach Sat- urday afternoon the Natchaug school kitchen to learn how ‘to cream odfish, make rice pudding and pre- pare the many simple foods that are nourishing and economical. Twenty girls sew while the other twepty cook, then reverse in order that each class may have one hour and a half instruction. These are all girls who wWould never reach the grades in which cooking is taught in the public schools, We have been most fortunate in hav- Ing a Pratt institute graduate domestic science teacher in charge of the class- es, as well as the assistance of mem- bers of the normal school dmestic sci- ence class. One girl sald the other day: “I have been so anxious for Christmas and New Years' to go, so 1 could come to the cooking class, for you told me I could come then. Wholesome Recreation. It is because the children are so in need of wholesome recreation that we have spent time and energy in plan- ning for those with whom we come in daily contact. They have eagerly grasped every suggestion for a good time, whatever the price they paid to. earn' it.
