Norwich bulletin., 1909-01-09

At the December meeting of the
local physicians a committee was APP
pointed to take into consideration the
matter of a hospital for Westerly, and
devise ways and means to achleVe the
desired result. At the January meet
ing Thursday evening this committee
made report that was encouraging and
showed active and earnest interest on
the part of the committeeman that re-
ceived the heSrtiest support of the rest
of the members.
The committee reported that a MEM
Der of the society had offered to do
nate from three to five acres of land
on Vincent Carr hill, an admirable hos
pital site. This is high and dry land,
an ideal location on account OF It's
healthy surroundings and its nearness
to Dixon square, yet removed from the
more or less noisy business and manu-
featuring section of the town. This
same public spirited and generous
memb Der also volunteered to present "
the hospital association. when formed,
a modern hospital ambulance and to
otherwise give aid when the hospital
became a reality.
The report was enthusiastically re-
ceived, and a committee was selected
to consider a plan of raising the funds
required for the proposed institution.
As the citizens generally are interested
in this movement, it is not believed
there will be much difficulty in raising
sum of money sufficient for the
praiseworthy purpose.
The Medical society voted to invite
the Rhode Island tuberculosis commits
sion to display the tuberculosis exhibit
in Westerly at its earliest convenience.

EXTENSION TO SHOPPING BAG.
Idea Of Practical Value That viii Be
Weleomed-Idea Capable Of
Development.

A novel shopping bag is made in
exquisite leather with the usual clasp
and handle, but having an added
length that when the shopper starts
out with her bag empty is folded up
and clasped to the side Of the bag.
After the regular supply OF small pur-
chases has been made and the accu'
mulated samples threaten TO over
now and burst all bounds the exten-
sion side is unclasped without even
opening the bag, which becomes twice
its original size. Indeed. 1t would
hardly be straining point to consider
It, in its extended condition. a one
night bag, for II the finest of night
dresses were used and the daintiest of
travelling helps they could all be got
In without a doubt.
A look at these leather shopping
bags will show the clever woman how
the idea could be developed in broad
sash ribbon for fancy work bag that
would hold little or much in the way
Of embroidery. In making the ribbon
bag the buttoning up of the extension
side would have to be rather complete
three enameled buttons at least
would be required to hold the wide.
soft ribbon in place.

1t is cut on long graceful lines and
fits the figure snugly When worn ex.

for evening it is usually made with
elbow sleeves and a low rounded neck
But when worn with day frocks lonr
tight sleeves and high neck may be-
utilized.
There may be a plated or gathered
founce finishing the skirt put on with
heading Of heavy lace insertion. al

deep hem would probably be more in

The slip is fastened down the back
