P. Emerson of Boston, who fvas assisted by his co-worker, Miss Mabel Skilton. The lectures were given at Centér church house and demonstrations were held in various schools, public and paro- chial. The course was oven to_doctors, nurses, teachers, gocial workers and dieti- tians and 62 people availed themselves of the opportunity. The plan was to start a branch of the work in Hartford, as New Haven already has three workers. The purpose of the clinic was #o help others do the work and to train helpers to carry on the work, it being entirely ed. ucational and not XKlief work, and neces- sifating the services of a physician. Dr. Emerson gave the following pri- mary causes of mal-nutrition: 1, phy: cal defects (naso-pharyngeal obstruc- tions), 2, lack of home control, 3, over- fatigue, 4, insufficient good and faulty food habits, 5, faulty health habits, and secondary causes: 1, hereditary, cent., 2, poverty, 3 per cent; 3, tubercu- losis, 3 per cent., 4, congenital spyhilas, 2 per cent. One-third of the children were found underweight for their height and more mal-putrition was found among the rich than among the poor, and more in the country than the city. The causes Dr. Emerson listed of un- derweight were: 1—Tea and coffee. ' Growing tissues cannot stand coffee, and there are from | two to three grains of caffein in each cup of coffee. 2. Candy. Takes away appetite and should be eaten just after a meal, .but none between meals, 3. Insufficient sleep. Children in the growing years should retire at 8.30 p. m. 4. Faulty diet. A nutritive nurse will endeavor to have a childrdrink at least one pint of milk.a day, eat some cereal, bread and butter, some vegetable and some fruit, and children are asked to keep a diet list of everything eaten for two days each week at breakfast, mid-morn- ing lunch, noon meal, mid-afternoon lunch and supper—a rest period is given daily and it wlil take a child from 12 to 15 weeks to reach normal weight but once normal weight is reached a cHild will retail it. 5. Children should have #upervised reading ; one book a week is enough. 6. Inderweights should have no mu- sic or dancing lessons. 7. (a) The physiclan should examine stool for worms, (b) urine for possible kidney disturbances, (c) and tonsils for disease, as one-third of the underweights were found to have diseased tonsils. A rest period twice daily is an absolute necessity for conserving energy. Chil- dren are considered underweight when 7 per cent. below normal and overweight when 20 per cent. above normal—usually due to overeating. Dr. Emerson’s purpose is to have chil- dren who are underweight according to graduate and is given a framed diploma. The cg-operation of the parents is neces- sary 4nd parents are expected to come te the classes. Nutrition ds food assimilation. Chil- dren eat for growth and development; adults eat for energy and repair. Proper food is necessary for both. The signs of mal-nutrition are poor color, lines under the eyes, flabby museles, flat chests, round shoulders, protruding abdomen, mnaso- pharyngeal obstruction and parted lips, all of which can be corrected in childhood by heaith methods. Those interested should be the parents, the children themselves, the schools, all medical agents, all child helping organ- izations, the associate charities, the juve. nile court, the city and the state. The saving in the cost of cepeaters in the grades at school would pay the cost of nutrition classes, and as co-operation means making oneself fit to. work with, this co-operation makes the children fit for manhood or womanhood, and Dr. Em- erson says a tonic is unnecessary in childhood, claiming it is an excuse for ignorance, and that those who handle them for children are pill peddlers. He also claims that spoiled children are a menace to a community. Control in foods. Miss J. M. Pendleton of West Main street was the only local nurse to -take the course and receive a diploma. Rest periods were instituted by Supt E. J. Graham in the.public schools here on classes would prove just. as profitable, it is claimed. : WEDDINGS. : Smith—sSullivan, Miss Marion Josephine Su Franklin street, Quinzy, Ma: van of 27 niece of Mr, and Mrs. D J.

NEW YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION BUILDING NEWY.M.C.A BULDING READY FOR DEDICATION PROGRAMM — The new building of the Young Men's Christian association on Main street, op- posite the postoffice, has been completed and is ready for the dedication exercises ‘which are to be held .Sunday evening at 7.30. When the first view of the com- pleted building is given to the public of Norwich it will disclose the admirable arrangements that the association has made for the service it can give its mem- bership. In general plan the new bullding con- sists of the front part of frame con- struction, which provides for offices, men’s and boys’ departments, -ladies’ room, kitchen and dormitories, while in the rear is the new gymnasium unit. a new brick building containing a swim- ming pool and the most modern 'of gym- nasium equipment. » In the new building a big advantage in the work of the association has been accomplished by the separation of the men’s and the boys’ departments. This is done by utilizing the so-called Murphy house on the west for the boys' depart- ment and the so-called Lewis house on the east for thg men’s department. Con- necting these two buildings are the ‘gen- eral offices, with offices for each depart- ment separated. Men’s Department. In the rooms in the men's department are a large fireplace, two billiard tables, a ping pong table, tables for checkers, and a drinking fountain. One of the rooms is a large enclosed reading room. The furniture is leather covered. Boys’ Department. Provision for the games and entertain- ment in which the boys will find pleasure has been made in the départment given over to them by furnishing billiard ta- bles, ping pong tables, tables for checkers and dominoes. This department also has a comfortable atmosphere given to-it by a large fireplace, and a bubbling drinking fountain is provided, Kitchen and Dining Room. The floor below the street level pro- vides rooms for various uses. Here is the kilchen, which is supplied with gas cange, doubie enameled sink, two enameled drain boarGs and large dish and linen closets. Adjoining the kitchen is a large dining room which will seat 100 and will be used for al, events where refreshments and suppers are to be served. It will also be utilized for Bible classes and directors’ -acetings. One of the east rooms on this floor is to be a club room, and there is also a large ladies’ room. On this floor there is also an up-to-date laundry which will enable the ‘association to care for all of its own laundry work. The very latest machinery has been pur- chased and installed for this purpose. Ny to the kitchen is “a large room which is to be used for translent show- e Here non-members will be able to secure shower privileges which have be- come quite in demand during the past = several ars all over the country. Dormitories, On the second floor of the Lewis und Murphy proverty are 18 modern -dormi- tories. Hach room is of the size that is used generally thronghout the = Young Men's Christian association buildings throughout the country. New beds and bedding have been placed im the rooms, which have already veen ocrupied since the association moved out of the - old building on Broadway. On this floor also is a suite of nice rooms to be occupied by the janitor and his wife. In this way they will always be available in the running of the large new home. Gymnasium Building. Connecting with the feont part of the building is the new gymnasium unit buiit on the rear of the lot. On the ground floor level are the locker rooms with lociicts for 500 members, the men's and boys’ in separate rooms, with separate entrances and exits. All will be under control of an attendant through a system of electric buttons. Tiled shower rooms, 10 for the men and 9 for the boys are close to the locker rooms and on the way tc the big swimming pool. S Sixty Foot Swimming Pool. One of the proudest possessions of the new building is the handsome 60 foot swimming pool, which was the donation of a Norwich woman whose identity has remained a secret up to the present time. This is built 60 feet long and 20 wide and is of the most modern design in tiling. From a depth of 3 1-2 feet af one end it runs to 9 feet at the other, ‘where there is a springboard. Ladders along the side are provided to allow the swimmers to get out at several points. and the depths and lengths are indicated in figures in the tilework. The swimming pool room is finely light. ed by windows on the sides and large plate glass windows at one end. Along one side is a spectators’ gallery which will seat about 75. Ventilation and san- itary arrangements haye been given par- ticular attention in conpection with the pool. One of the regulations that will be enforced is to require that no one will be allowed in tHe swimming pool without first taking a shower bath, In the new unit construction with fire- proof materials has been used. All doors in this department are copper covered, not only insuring safety against spread of fire but also adding materially in ap- pearance. It is planned each year to give a course of instructions in swimming to boys of Norwich, which will give to the citizens of the city an opportunity to have their boys actually learn how to swim with the least possible danger. This will be greatly appreciated. Gymnasium. The new gymnasium is one of the finest of its kind in the state. It is a large finely lighted room, with the latest equipment in gymnasium apparatus. There are separate entrances for the men wire netting where the public can wit- ness the work without interfering with the classes. Just off the gymnasium floor proper is a large physical director's “office where a good opportunity will always be given to the director to keep in proper touch with all physical department work. Another feature added to this department is some knock-down circus seats suitable for the seating of some 200 persons. These seats can be erccted in a very short time and will be used for entertainments to be given on the gym floor. It is planned this year to hold the Y. M. C. A. course of entertalnments in this part of the new building. In one of the vacant spaces outside of the new building a modern moving pic- ture booth has been erected, allowing a fine throw into the gymnasium. It is planned to have Wednesday nights given over to social events in the gymnasium each week, thers being no schedules laid um classes arranged for this night. The lot on which the new home stands has a frontage of 130 feet with a depth of 200 feet, allowing an opportunity to carry on outdoor games. In the rear of the Young Men's Cheistian association building in Norwich there is ample room for tennis, volley ball and various other games. In fact, the new home is equipped for almost -any kind of an eyent that might want to be held. There is a large boiler room, 20 by 20 feet, in which is installed one of the very latest heating plants with every device that might be wanted to properly heat the entire building. Not only is there a heat- ing plant “But there is also a2 hot watec system which will carry hot water to all of the rooms on all floors. FORMER U. . MARSHAL BISHOP DIES AT NEW HAVEN Edson S. Bishop, a former resident of this city and for a number of years United States marshal, died Thursday in New Haven in his 79th year. Mr. Bishop was the son of Joel B.| Bishop and was born in 1844 in Madisos this state, and spent a part of his bo: hood in Guilford. He was ecducated at| the Webster school in New Haven and at Detroit. At the age of 18 he enlisted in | the\26th Iowa volunteers, Co, £, of which ! his father was captain. He served until| 1865 and was mustered out with the rank of captain, June 6, 1865. Mr. Bishop ceturned east n 1865, lo- cating in Norwich, and engaged in busi- ness here. Ten years later he was ap- pointed a deputy sheriff during the term of Sheriff O. N. Raymond. He was chair- man for six years of the West Chelsea school district. Leaving Norwich in 1878, | he located in Guilfard, but returned Here in 1895 and was deputy sheciff under Sheriff George O. Jackson. He had 13 years of _experience as EDSON 8. United States marshal, receiving his first appointment under President McKinley on Aug. 8, 1898. and was reappointed in 1906 by Pregident Roosevelt, serving until 1911, when he was succeeded by Marshal Hawley of Bridgeport. ' Since leaving Norwich, Mr. Bishop had resided in Hactford and hal also con- ducted a summer hotel at Mystic. He was prominent in republican politics and had been on tW6 republican town committee in Norwich. He had heen a member of the Grand Army for many years, a former adjutant of Sedgwick post of this city, and a past department commander of Connectiout. He was also past department commander of the Sons 'of Veterans. He waN a past master of Somerset lodge, No. 34, F. and A. M, a member of Franklin chapter, No. 4, R. A. M., and of Franklin council, No. 3, R. and S. M. He also belonged to the Army and Navy elub of Connecticut. Mr. Bishop was twice married. his first wife dying in 1901. He leaves' a widow and one daughter. A son, Harry, died several years ago. » BISHOP, Regarding a report that ke was being considered’ for the position of president of the Uniyersity of California, Dr. Ar- thur Twining Hadley, president emeritus of Yale, stated that he had not heard of and boys and there is a space shut off by | the offer. ; | coal added. | grid will admit sufficient air over the fire. GIVES ADVICE TO THOSE WHO MUST USE SOFT COAL With official estimates that in the fall season just beginning only 60 per cent. of the normal annual supply of anthracite can be produced, and the deduction that many householders who normally use hard coal must use bituminous coal in their furnaces., the Connecticut fuel ad- ministration - has prepared Instructions relative to the use of soft coal in house heating. _ The best substitute for anthracite from a standpoint of cleariiness and ease of operation is coke, says Thomas W. Rus- ®ell, Connecticut fuel adminiNrator, but here again the supply is inadequate and the householder will have to “all back on bituminous coal. Though bituminous coal is dirty to handle, requires mofe care in firing and gives off considerable smoke, it costs less and in the better grades is higher in heat value and contains less ash than anthra- cite. ‘Where a variety of bituminous coals are available, the householder should choose a low volatfle coal. Though not necessary to have the coal sized, as is the case with anthracité, f#t will be found cleaner to use coal which aas been screened. | If it is found that excessive dust is caused when firing the coal, this can be reduced by slightly wetting the coal at'the front of the bin as if is being used. ‘When burning bitumihous coal instead of anthracite in the domestic furnace, it will be necessary to use an entirely dif- ferent method of firing. Instead of leveling the fuel bed and putting on fresh coal in an éven layer over the entire fire box, the coke and partly burned coal remaining from the previous firing should be pushed as much as possibic. to one side of the fire box and the fresh coal thrown into the empty side so as to leave some of the barning coal exposed. In thiz way the green coal is heated slowly, the volatfle gases are given off gradually and are ignited by the burning coal, instead of going to waste up the chimney unburned. After a little experimenting, it will be found possible, with most furnaces, to fire so that at the next fring the bed of coke will have become built up on one side of the furnace and thée other side will be comparatively empty. If thjs can be brought about. the green coal can be thrown into the empty side without first pushing the coked coal back to one side. However, if it is desired to heat the house quickly, the goke should be broken up and pulled in an even layer across the whole grate and be allowed to burn there until the house is heated. It can. then be pushed to one side and fresh The proper regufation of drafts varies so much with every combination of fur- nace, chimney and kind of coal that it can be determined only by trial. In gen- eral, regulate the fire as much as possibie by the damper, check draft and ash pit door, not by opening .the fire door wide. Immediately after firing, the fire door should be left partly open until smoking has stopped, but ordinarily the fire door By opening the grid in the ash pit door, more or lrss, the combustion may be made more rapid or retzrded. To get a hot fire, the grid should be obened wide. To check the fire so as to carry it over night, it should be almost closed. The exact amount the grid is opened to pro- duce the desired results can be deter mined only by trial. Do nét clean the fire oftener than necessary.” For the average bituminous coal, shaking déwn the ashes will be re- quired only once a day, and then shake only until glow of the fire is seen in the ash pit, not until burning coals .appear.
