Already Proving EfHeaeieus and Eco.
 nemieaI-Pian for Visiting Nurse.

Two recent innovations in the line of charitable work in this city will be watched with interest by the resi- dents of Willimantic during the next
 ties association, has already been or
 ganized, the directors elected, per-
 manent secretary selected. and a large
 number of organizations have joined.
 In addition, many individuals have
 joined as sustaining members, paying
 dollar 8 year or more toward the expenses of the association.
 Miss Nancy Austin, the secretary. a woman of experience and tact, is daily at the rooms used by the association, on Valley street, in the old armory building and is already doing efficient of them stated Saturday that the sav- ! ing in needless expenditure and the ! duplication Of effort had already | amounted to considerable In his opin- ion, if conditions had remained as bad
 as they were in the early winter, even l then, under the system now in use, not over 60 per cent. of the goods and l money spent and distributed at that ! time would be used now.
 Where in many cases the city or | some society or individual was giving
 away eight and nine loaves of bread | to a family at a time, now flour is given, and bread baked by the ----1an of the family. One case was reported where the wife Of a man working in the mill was III. There was 8 baby in | the family, and 1t seemed as if the
 man would have to give up his work for a time. to take care of his wife
 and child. Miss Austin found a place ! for the child, where 1t could receive 1 good care temporarily, and herself carried 1t from it's home to the oppo-
 site end of the city.
 In this way, the man stayed at work l and they are being helped over hard period with no loss of self Prospect, and
 without becoming much of a burden
 on the town.
 Another scheme which ought tc prove benefit is the visiting nurse idea put forward by the St. Joseph's hos pital auxiliary, which will go into ef- 1 feet about May 1st. The duty of the | nurse will be to visit all sick persons 1 who may need her attention, and who can be tended at home as we'll as or better than at the hospital. and to in- struct her patients and others where necessary in the proper rules of san- itation and health. thus preventing disease as well as aiding in it's cure. The nurse is to receive no compensa- tion personally from her patients. but as their circumstances may allow, small payments may be made by those whom she visits, the money to go to
 the fund of the auxiliary for further
 work in this line.
 By an agreement between the two
 bodies, it is extremely likely that the
 visiting nurse may be called in by the
 United Charities when needed. and in
 this way true cooperation obtained.

NORWICH RUNARour STRUCK.
Mansfield Car Runs Into That of
 Charles w. Dow.

A runabout driven by Charles W. Dow of Norwich and a Ford run by a MT. Collins of Mansfield were in col Hsion Saturday morning at the cor ner of Main and Walnut streets in this city. MT. Dow was driving west on the right hand side of Main street, when the Ford car came out onto Main street from Walnut, and col lided with his car. MT. Collins was turning to the left togo east on Main street. The recent traffic rules adopt ed by the aldermen state that in such cases the drivers shall give the one on the right hand the right of way. As MT. Collins was on MT. Dow's right hand. it would seem as if the former had the right of way.
 Mir. Dow was away again inside of an hour, but Collins car will be laid up for several days for repairs.

season that fruit-growers in a

ceaseless war against them,
The bee expert of a well-known

broken all records by destroying
no fewer than 307 nests. This
means that, including the wasps,
grubs and eggs, he has killed

wasps. One nests, a record for

every morning at chapel. We

One of them, is the "Wach am

has a tune enthusing to any

we use are really not as good as
those in the school song books
but the tune is the same. It
