FAVOR APPROPRIATION FOR
SECOND TURBINE GENERATOR
Gas and Electric Commissioners Show
the Need of Bettering Equipment in
Face Of Growing Rusiness-WiIl
Cost $4,000.

The board Of gas and electrical COM
missioners petitioned the common
council for an appropriation of about
$37, eco from the depreciation fund for
the purchase and installation of a new
turbine generator at the electric plant
The matter came before the executive
committee Monday evening, at which
time it was thoroughly discussed with
Superintendent Bogue and two mem
bers of the commission showing the
need, after which the appropriation
was sanctioned. 1t will be reported to
the council next Monday.
1t is desired to install 1000 kilowatt
unit to take care of future business.
There are several prospects for large
power users, and also to insure the
failure of assistance from the Uncas
Power company. If the Uncas Power
company should be unable to give help
such as being received now, the station
is not properly equipped now to carry
the day load. because the business has
increased so much in the past year and
the prospects for further increase are
as great Business demands the addi-
ton, which viii cost about $37, 900, to
come from the depreciation fund which
is on hand and will mean no extra
tax The money is now in the hands
of the city treasurer.
The commissioners will contract for
the generator very soon, but it will
have to be made, and it will probably
be six to eight months before it will
be installed. 1t will be three times the
size of the one now in operation at the
station.
The commissioners in their state
ment referred to the fact that business
is increasing very rapidly and in order
to be prepared for the future they must
provide in advance. They pointed out
that the city will probably secure much
additional business from the Thermos
Bottle company when located here, and
they felt that it is practically assured
that it will be. They will operate their
factory by electricity and there will
also have to be some extensions to
provide them with the gas they will
require. Commissioner Story was IN
able to be present because of another
engagement, but it was said he ap-
proved of the entire plan.
There was brief discussion regarding
the plans for the widening of Little
Water street but nothing was done, al
though the matter will probably come
up at the council meeting next week
on the matter of establishing a grade
for the southerly side of that street
and the westerly side of Shetucket
street.

In his study of children he finds
that the boys and girls will take the
right way If it Is open to them. Play
stimulates better morals. and morals
school play and business life are
bound together The schools have the
solution Of the problem in their hands
II is said that 70 per cent. of the
school children leave school defective,
They look on school only as school
Gymnastic work. which Is cut and
dried, is not liked by pupils. IT IS
rot spontaneous, the pupil doing Just
as he is told today SO that t becomes
mechanical. Play ought to be pur-
poseful not haphazard running about.
The benefit of purposeful play will
be great. BY observation. imitation,
and teaching the pupil will graually
change.
Where there is such play and play
grounds there should be skilled lead
ership to make 1t successful and play :
grounds need trained supervision.
From the moral standpoint there
should be no playground without prop
er leadership. Undirected play is
public danger.
Business houses know the value OF
recreation and man hire men at good
salaries to provide recreation for the
employees. 1t overcomes trouble and
is an economic force.

SURPRISED DOCTOR
Illustrating the Effect of Food.

The remarkable adaptability of
Grape-Nuts food to stomachs so dis
ordered that they will reject every

of a woman in Racine, Wis
Two years ago" she says, Il was
attacked by a stomach trouble so
serious that for a long time l could
not take much Of any sort Of food.
Even the various kinds prescribed by
the doctor produced most acute pain.
We then got some Grape Nuts
food, and you can imagine my sur
prise and delight when l found that
I could eat it with a relish and with
out the slightest distress.
When the doctor heard of it he
told me to take several small portions
each day. because he feared I would
grow tired of it as l had of all other
food.
But to his surprise (and that of
everybody else), l did not tire of
Grape-Nuts, and became better day by
day. till, after some weeks, my stom
ach entirely recovered and was able
to eat anything my appetite craved
my nerves, which had become sc
weakened that l feared / would be-
come insane, were also restored by the
Grope-Nuts food in connection with
Postum which had become our table
