Lynde of the Associated charities for some weeks. Subsequently the case was turned over to the state aid department at Hartford for investiga- tion. The investigation developed the fact that Mabel King was born in Norwich and was married in Winsted in 1398 to Albert King. They maintained a residence in Torrington from 1899 to 1903. She has not held a permanent residence in any town or city of the state since that time. Her four years’ residence in Tor- rington leaves the responsibility for the future care of the woman up_ to that town. Through the efforts of Mr. Lynde in communicating with the first selectman of Torrington, that town has agreed to stand the expensc of her commitment to any institution which the authorities may select. It will remain with Judge Calkins to decide what disposition will be made of the case. According to phy- sicians who conducted the examina- tions_the case of Mrs. King is one for the Home for Feeble Minded or a woman's reformatory. The fact that there is no reforma- tory for women in the state, and the Home for Feeble Minded is already overcrowded, will necessitate an_ap- peal being made to Governor Hol- comb. Sheuld this action be advised and result failure, it is barely pos- sible that Mabel will be provided with carfare to pay her passage to Tor- rington, where shc may become a le- Zal charge.

Four nt ail day, n ail ” other volunteers old ‘who are al T king ment are doing a noble work interests of the cenmsus. They have devoted considerable .time and energy to the checking, etc. which is by no means the easiest work in the world. Today it is hoped that a large force of volunteers will show up to do a little towards helping aiong the final which are now being prepared for the canvassers who will visit.the houses in an effort to get the names of those who have been skipped in the census taking so far. It is suggested that any men or boys over 16 who have not yet fllled out their blanks do 80 at once at the nearest information bureau. This means just so much less for the canvassers to do next week. Don’t ask the state headquarters in Hartford of the Connecticut bureau of military census what town of the 168 in the state is the “piker town” about which there has been so much talk the past two or three weeks, for the headquarters will not tell you. In fact, the answer given there last night, was that there now is no “piker town” in the whole state of Connecticut. When Governor Marcus H: Holcomb had called upon every town and city in Connecticut to help in the Connec- ticut military census, each to the ex- tent of taking the census within its own borders, and one town had writ- ten to the committee of assistants to the governor that it could not do the work unless it received money with which to. pay census-takers, that town was promptly dubbed “the piker town of Connecticut” at the state headquar- ers. At the same time the opinion was expressed that, after its officials un- derstood what was being done and re- alized that other towns were taking the census by patriotic volunteer workers, the “piker town” would promptly step up to =cratch. This view gproved correct for the commu- nity which once was known as thc piker town” has organized volunteer workers and is’ makinz a better rec- ord than some towns which were well under way when it was still in the “piker” class. If every town will continue in the good work it has already well under way, according to the state headquar- ters, the census work will go through without a hitch. At present all the towns are working hard to see that theirs is not the last in the state to get its returns completed to state headquarters. A No, there's no use now asking state headquarters what is the “piker town” because there “ain’t none.’ Hundreds -of Connecticut trained nurses are ready to respond promptly to an emergency call for service, it is shown by their returns in the Connec- licut military census, now in progress. e splendid response of nurses of the state or outside its borders to re- spond to emergency calls either in the state or outside its borders has more CUMMINGS & RING Funeral Directars - and Embalmers 337 MAIN _STREET Oppesite Post Offies 'Phene 238.2 Lady Assistant ing the last three years had resided with her son.

The first asks if the nurse would respond to such a call in the state and the second asks as to willingness to re- spond to a call for service anywhere.
