Both courts open their sessions at 10 o'clock in the morning and no change has been, announced, which means that they will sit in New London at 11 ! o'clock SALVATION ARMY BOARD PLANS CAMPAIGN FOR LOCAL FUNDS I am very glad to give my endorsement to the annual home service campaign fund of the Salvation Army, sald His Honor, Mayor Herbert M. Lerou, Friday. The work carried on in our city {s worthy of the financial support of our citizens, the mayor added. : Friday the members of the Salvation Army advisory board met at the cham- ber of commerce rooms on Shetucket street and disaussed plans for the launching of the Salvation Army campaign next Mon- da ymorning. The campaign which has as its goal, $3,500. is to be held for the pur- Dpose of raising money for the maintenance of the local work. In the absence of E. W. Perkins, presi- dent of the advisory board, who was called out of town ,the meeting was presided over by Mrs. Eben Learned, the vice prsident. The advisory board was 'very en- thusiastic over the report submitted by Capt. Carpenter, for the relief work done here during the year, and they feel that after the people see what the army ac- complished from the sum recieved last year, so they can carry on this noble work. Mrs, Learned volunteered to provide two autos during the drive week to con- vey workers to different part of tho city and each member promised to do :"1 pos- sibel to see the Salvation Army go over the top. Mrs. Harry E. Higeins will have charge of the campalgn work on the West Side. It was decided to make an urgent appeal for voluntary donations to be sent either to the president of the advisory board, office Shetucket street, or Arthur E. Story, assistant cashier of Merchants’ National bank. who is acting as treasur- er of the advisory board. Presidential Endorsement Bvery person in this community who contributes to the Salvation Army’s home service appeal, will be in company with the great. who from the president and vice president .all the way down the line, are stanch supporters of this cause, says a statement Issued from campaign head- quarters. In every community, it is the men and women who are bigger: than their .own town, county and state, who help the Sal- vationists. Men and women of this calibre, and there are thousands of them. are al- ways willing fo uphold every movement designed to he'p humanity. Bvery citizen who joins the forces with the intention of alding the Salvation Army likewise joins forces with President War- ren G. Harding and Viee President Cal vin Coolidze who given encouragemenf both morally and financially. Last year the presid it nersonally gave $10,000 towards the construction of a new corps buflding in his home town, Marion, Ohio This is his 1922 message to all unfortu- nates conveyed to them through thei Dbenefacter, The Salvation Army: “Through the medium of the Salvation Army, which throughout its history has been peculiarly useful and helkpful, 1 want to send a word of greeting to those unfortunates for whom' the Salvation Army has accomplished so much. “Ithink we may confidently hope and believe that the most difficult part of that periol of industrial and economic depres- sino which followed the war, is now past. and that from this time forward condi- tions will improve. “It has been an occasion of great satis- faction to me, that throughout this dis- tressing period, there has been mani- fested all over the country so splendid a spirit of understanding and citizenship. 1 am sure that I do not exaggerate when I say that L believe in no other cauntry would such splendid orler and ' uniform £00d conduct have prevailed among the people at large, during a time which in- volved such difficult living conditions for great multitudes of people. It is because ocr people have shown such fortitude, such high civic idealism. that we are soon emerging from the distress and diffi- culties of this perioc Like his illustrious co-partner in the direction of the natlon, Vice President Cal- vin Coolidge, also gives of his purse and personality to the maintenance of the Sal- vation Army. He addresses himself to us all in this way: “The strong and the fortunate of earth can take care of themselves. The weak and unfortunate must be cared for by others. True charity consists in heipine the weak to become strong, in order that thereafter they may help themselves. This is thebasis of a religious civilization, the acknowledgment of the obligation that strength is given to be used for the general welfare, and power for the redemption of manykind. There is no organization which better exemplifies this fundament- al principle of human development than the Salvation Army. It looks through all the distressing clrcumstances which may surround mankind that it may use its strength to rescue and redeem all that Is rrecious in humanity. Those who serve their fellowmen In this capacity are de- serving of the suroort of all who des! to detnd and advance tne cxuse wf CIvi zation on a_clmmon brotherhood through a common Father.” * Has Governor Lake’s Approval Governor Lake's indorsement of the Sal- vation Army follows: “The Salvation Army in America has always rendered a fine service at home but I think a full appreciation of it only came to many of us after we had seen the work done among our soldiers durin: the World war. I feel that T voice the sentiment of everyone in the state of Con- necticut when I express my appreciation of your past work and wish you Gods:eed in your future efforts.” HIGHWAY HINTS IN EASTERN CONNECTICUT Division Engineer A.

When we asked her what kind of work was to be done there, she said “Go to the institutions and find out what Is needed.” So we first thought 1t wise to conter With the head of each nstitution and state our case, being very anxious to do nothing In the beginning whic might in- terfere with hospital rules, ete. We were most cordially recelved by some of the superintendents, although some did not understand at first the kind of work We were trying to do. However, in each institution we have found our way to the friendless and neg- lected, which is all we asked.

During this Jast year a welfare worker has been engaged at the hospital - Her duty is to investigate-the homes and cir- cumstances of patients when they enter and to place responsibility on a relation if possible, theredy often shortening the patient’s stay. Doubtless from now on we wil be asked to lend our assistance to the dio- cesan bureau for this kind of work. The tuberculosis sanatorium presents few problems of this sort. Our work there i3 one of mercy. Nowhere are vis- its so much apprectated. During the year we have made fifteen visits, given two entertainments, furnish- €d loe cream (by donation) to each in- firmary. realized money on hand-work for one patient, given praver hooks and con- tributed fifteen Christmas boxes, by do- nation also. The almshouse has usually abogt for- ty inmates, one-third of whom are wo- men. These women are all invalids; they are apparently cheerful, pleased to sce visitors and do mot ask for anything. However, there are many little things I am sure they would like. Last sum- mer we provided coffee on ome of our visits and since then we usually bring candy with us. While the old ladies en- joy this, it does mot drain very heavily on our finances.. The committes has been anxious for some to give the women a ride, but it is always so difficult to procure a number of cars for the same day that our cour- age has failled. If we should attempt it again soon, please encourage us. There have been two entertainments here and we are planning a sacred con- cert for May Tth. We have made twelve visits here. ..The Backus hospital visiting was left to the last as work in the other institu- tions scemed more necessary. Since November we have sent visitors every two weeks, and have brought dolls and tors to the children. and fruit and jel- Hes to the adult patients, Wishing to do our part with the other religions denominations in the city w>» raised $110 in December by giving a card party and made this our contribmtion to the linen fund.

It cannot bhe =o independent today. so as occaslon arises. we should Interest ourselves in it and thus make it really our hospital. Thers has bean some work done at the institutions br the soclety at large, in- stead of the Visiting committee. A year ago Miss Henrletta Steinkamp directed the work of providing May bas. kets far the patients at the tuberculosis sanatorium and at Christmas time Mrs. John McNamara was chalrman of tha committee which made the county hom chlidren and the Rock Nook dren happy with 50 dozes. Under direction of the regular chair- men, gixty women were glven gifts at the state hospita! and the men at the almshouse received tobacco and the wo- men baskets of fruit. An automobile ride was arraneed for tha county home children last July by Miss Margaret Murphy. About one-third of the children at the county home are Catholics. Although we have worked on non-sectarian lines alto- gether this first year. we should now look after our Catholic denendents het- ter and the first thing needed is Catho- lic boarding homes for chiidren. we need them today and should lose no time about finding them.
