WANT OLD LINEN
 FOR ARMY RELIEF
Salvation Army Plans Campaign Of Collection Of Discarded
 Cloth For Bandages

A campaign for collection of old linen which will be steri1ized and used for bandages for the wounded in the war is being started in this city by the Salvation Army Signs have been
 prepared announcing the need which will be displayed on all the wagons of the Army that everyone may be re- minded of it. Adjutant E. J. Atkins will receive contributions which may be sent in at the officers headquar- ters, 30 Elm street, and Captain B. Stewart at the Industrial Department 515 Housatonic avenue.
 Linen is a thing that almost every one can give, and the army has taken for it's share in the great work of re- lief this necessity which, although it costs nothing to give, yet must not be understood to mean any idle task on the part of those who are prepar- ing to take an active part in the work.
 The campaign has already been giv- en great impetus in New York, the national Headquarters of the associa- ton, where a large part of the gigan- tic plant Of the Salvation. Army has been given over to collecting, storing, preparing and shipping the linen, cot ton and gauge bandages which are being showered in upon the workers in generous response to their ideas.
 It is not only linen that is wanted, although that. is the most desirable sort Of cloth. E1verything that can be made into bandages, which means ey- erything but flannel and woolens, Is wanted, white preferred. Gauze will be especially welcome, and absorbent cotton as well. All of this will be gathered at the headquarters. assem- bIed, and shipped on to New York, where special machinery has been in- stalled by the army to sew, wrap and sterilize the bandages. After this they are shipped on to Europe to be distributed. No country is specially favored. It is not a Belgian relief fund, nor Prince of Wales fund, nor a German fund. All these countries will get the benefit equally as well aS France, Russia, Austria, Servia and Turkey, or any others that may be visited by the war. The Salvation tation across the Atlantic by the steamship lines. and the local com mittee will visit the offices of the companies which carry between here and New York in an effort to obtain the same privileges for it's shipm ents. The committee confidently expects that the request win be granted. The hotels and boarding houses are expected to be generous giVers to the fund for here as in no other place is there so much old linen in the form of sheets, pilIowcases, shirts, handker- chiefs, etc, that either has been thrown away or that can well be spared. And every contribution, even though it consists of only 3. single chief, will be welcome. There is only one request made, and that is that 1 the donors will send their contribu- tions as clean as possible.

CENTRAL CHARITY
 BODY IS YEAR OLD

At { o'clock tomorrow eThursday) af- ternoon, the first annual meeting of the Charity Organization Society of Bridgeport, will be held in the sun and directors for the coming year will be elected. While the society has been in actual working order only since
 the first of February. it is a year ago this month since Morris Willows, of the American Association for Organiz- ing Charities was brought to this city
 to study conditions and methods of relief Upon his advice, the present Charity Organization Society was formed soon after his report was made.
 Men and women who are prominent in
 charitable fields of the city were pres
 ent at the meeting and it's officers, members of committee and board of directors consist of many people who are high in the business and profes- siona1 world.
 The society is now incorporated. Its officers and board of directors meet monthly to direct its affairs.
 Since the official opening of the so- ciety in February, the work has been very effective, although handicapped by the enormous load produced by business depression. [ The city has responded much better than it was really expected that it would.
 Leet B. Myers was engaged as gen. eraI. secretary of the new organiza- ton, and with Miss Marguerite Boy fan his assistant and one visitor, they have already shou1dered the great bur den of s60 cases. About one-haH of
 these cases have been reported by the Department of Public Cases, where the number of cases to be investigat- ed are too many for the one visitor, and in return, the Department of Pub lie Charities has in many cases given relief to the eases reported by the so- ciety, thus accomplishing a fair ex- change. The majority of the other half of the number of cases were re- ported by other societies, churches. lschooI teachers. city and private Tly-

Don't scold your fretful, peevish child. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign it's little stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with sour waste.
 When hstless, pale, feverish. full of cold breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally. has ston- ach-ache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give a teaspoonfu1 of stCalifornia, Syrup of Figs, and in a few hours all the foul waste, the sour bile and fermenting food passes out of the bowels and you have well and playful Nchi1d again. Children love this harmless "fruit laxative,'' and mothers can rest easy after giving it, because it never fails to make their little }.sinsides' clean and sweet.
 Keep it handy, Mother! A little given today saves a sick child tomor- row, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 50 cent bottle of "Cal- ifornia Syrup of Figs,'S which has di- rections for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle.

 The underlying plan of the society is to never give relief to d family without providing some plan for. it's reconstruction. Personse and people are aided to regain their self-support- ing standard.

Reasons for this are nu- merous. A mention Of the enormous stock they carry, with the low selling price attached to the goods, coupled with quick. service and polite atten- ton has all helped to make Davey Bros. a household by-word in mary homes of today.
 It wasn't many months after their opening Of their fist store when they branched out to make store number two, which Is situated at Main and George streets, and which today is en5Byfng the same prosperity as the West End store.
