DOES NOT BELIEVE IN PREPAREDNESS. New York Man Airs Views at State Library Convention. Henry W. Kent, formerly curator of Slater library, Norwich, now assistant secretary of the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York city, told the members of the Connecticut Library association, at Waterbury, Thursday, that he did not believe in prepared- ness, and he did not believe in “these demigods” who are running around preaching preparedness, but he does believe the manufacturers of this country must prepare to .com- pete with the manufacturers of France and Germany by sending their designers and experts to the libraries and museums to get material for maintaining and improving their par- ticular_industries. Mr. Kent delivered “Museums” before the the Library association, gatkered in the Assemily hall of the Mattatuck J@storical Society for their annual meeting. There were about 80 librarians at the forenoon session. Mr. Kent made his remarks on pre- paredness near the close of his ad- dr after he had told of the prac- |tice 'of American manufacturers of abr jewelry, carpets, rugs, furni- ture and women's hats, in sending their experts and designers to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in order to secure designs for the manufac- fgre of their products. These design- an address on members of who were s for years past had visited France and Germany and other European countries annually, to get their de- signs, but the war conditions last year and this vear have barred, the design- ers from Europe. These manufacturers, he said, were surprised to find that at the Metro- politan museum there were interest- ing and rare old objects in the collec- tions which wouid make admirable patterns for their needs. It was not long before the building was fairly swarming with designers, copyists and photographers, and the museum had entered a_most interesting field of use- fulness. He said that both during the war and after the war American manu- facturers would have to go to the mu- seums and to the libraries for the de- signs and patterns so necessary to their industrial life. Mr. Kent frankly told the librarians that he thought fewer books were be- ing read now than formerly and said that procf of this was in the wonder ful success of the motion pictures. People would much rather see things, hie said, than read what someone else might say about tnem. He advocatel the establishment, in the corner of every library, of a permanent exhibi- tion of prints and etchings and said the libraries should create a respect for hooks and should teach people how to select and buy books and bibliograph- ies. He said that in museums the of- ficials were always very polite to col- lectors of art works and in many in- stances these collectors, in time, do- nated some of their coliections to the public. He advocated such a courss among librarians. OBITUARY. Mrs. Jeremiah McGrath. Mrs, Jeremiah McGrath dled at her home, No. 21 Oneco street, Friday noon,’ after an illness of five or six weeks.

Ninety-six Towns in the State Vis- ited by Supervisors. Searls Light, agent of the state board of education, who will have charge of the distribution of the docu- ments which the state board of health will turn over to the state board, is making arrangements for their di: tribution. The documents will refer to 13 subjects relating to sanitation and hygiene, including the following: common drinking cups, common house i house fly, infec- of school " children, mosquito problems, presen- of ophthalnua, neonatorum, scarlet fever, smallpox, suggestions to producers and dealers of milk, and treatment of persons rescued from drowning. The colored map of the state in Mr. Light's office shows there are about 96 towns in the state visited by the 82 supervisors. The following towns do not come under the list: Woodbridge, East Haven, Clinton, Westbrook, Old Saybrook. Chaplin, Andover and Plainville. These towns are eligible, but thus far they have not taken any steps to take advantage of the system of state supervision to improve their schools. The system of school supervision in Connecticut is uniform, unlike that in Massachusetts, where each super- visory district has a system of its own. The state board of education of Vermont intends to adopt this state’s system of supervision as being capa- ble of producing the best resuits.

School Children Will Be Inspected For Contagious Diseases by Dr. Cas- sidy. Dr. Louis T. Cassidy, recently ap pointed medical inspector of the pub- le schools, will start on his duties on Monday and also Miss Charlotte M. Albertine, visiting nurse will = as- sume her duiies on the same day. A number of people are in the dark as to what the medical inspecton means. It means that the school children are inspected for contagious and iInfectious diseases, cleanliness and mental conditions. The inspector upon finding any defects makes a re- port to the parents regarding the con- dition of the child and refers them to their family physician. Children who are found to have contagious or Infectious diseases are kept out of school thereby protect- ing the other children. If a case of contagious' disease is found the in- spector has the schoolroom thorough- ly fumigated and instead of closing the rcom for a period of time he in- spects the children daily, thus sav- ing the closing of the room. This protec the children and saves time In school studies. The visiting nurse accompanies the Inspector. Several inquiries have been made in regard to the inspection, some being of the opinion that the inspector rend- ers treatment but this is not his duty. He only recommends and protects the children from catching contagious and infectious diseases. MAY SELL PROPERTY AND FRANCHISES.
