 Mir. Martin of Newport offered an amendment which would conf1ne the expenditures Of the commission to moneys appropriated by the town.
 MT. OsNefl Of Providence said: T congratulate Mir. Martin upon finding the joker in this bill. Under this pro- vision it is possible for the legisla- ture to appropriate any sum of money for roads to be spent by this com mission in the town of Westerly"
 MT. Jennings resented the imputa- tion that there was a joker, in the bill. He declared that there was noth- ing to prevent the legislature from making such an appropriation for any citaafcr town and that this provision in the bill was merely intended to meet such a contingency.
 Mir Martins amendment was de- feated.
 Mir. Pressey of Cumberland moved an amendment providing for refer endum of the voters of Westerly on the bill.
 Mr. Langworthy of Westerly said that unanimous vote was passed at the annual town meeting in Westerly last June in favor of this legislation.
 Mir. Pressey's amendment was de feated on viva voce vote.

PARK STREET CHURCH
HAS SOCIAL CENTER

With so many men here in Bridge
port away from their own homes, the
desirability of meeting places for rest
and recreation amid pleasant sur
roundings has become increasingly
evident The Mems league of the
Park Street Congregational church
has decided to do what it can to meet
that need on the east side. 1t will
open the lecture room and parlors OF
the church for a E'Social Center The
entrance is on Park street near Bar
mum avenue. These rooms are attrac-
tive, we'll warmed and lighted. A
pool table is to be installed. There
will be games such as chess, checkers,
and crokinole for those interested in
games. Parallel bars, swinging rings
and some other gymnastic apparatus
are available, and other pieces will be
added from time to. time.
In the reading room will be found
the daily papers and some of the best
weekly and monthly magazines. At
present the social center will be open
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Fri
day evenings from Z to 10 O'Clock.
When devotional or social meetings
are in progress in some of the rooms,
it will still be possible usually to read
or play in other rooms. The social
center is to be open to all excepting
only boys and girls. Men not con-
nected with this or any other church
will be welcome.

This past year will be marked as
the one in which a, radical change in
the method cd conducting the home
was decided upon. The home wa@
originally planned and arranged for
private housekeeping, in suites of two
rooms each. For a small price an in
dividual could have one of these lit

This system is now to be discontinued
and the residents provided for in a
different way, the details to be worked
out later. 1t is not considered safe to
have stoves and fires in the resident s
rooms.
The society received 1egacies from
the following: Mrs. Mary Perry Sher-
man. Mrs. Susan Brothwe1l and Mrs.
Catherine j. Baldwin. the latter be-
ruests having been given for procuring
and placing headstones over the
graves of those persons Wt.o may be
buried in the burial plot belonging to
the society in the Park cemetery.
The amount received from member
ship fees was $436.50; from four new
life members, 500; from the annual
sale in March, $2S2.28; from dona-
tons. 500; from the Sewing club OF
Ten, $500.
AS this is the last gift the society
is to receive from the Sewing Club of
Ten (the club having disbanded) we
wish to express again very heartfelt
appreciation for all they have been to
the society. Coming into exisstence, as
we believe, on account of our finan-
cial depression in 1910 and 1911 they
have through the intervening years,
not only been a very great help finan-
cia11y, but have impaired that wonder
full strength and comfort which the
consciousness of having a friend al
ways brings. We are deeply grateful
liz o1A nc SiSfa
The needlework guild, as usually,
sent in a large amount of warm and
useful clothing for distribution among
our benef1ciaries, which were greatly
appreciated.
Among the residents there have
been two deaths. Mrs. Anna Deforest,
IS years and nearly. 10 months of age,
passed away Sept. 2. She had lived at
the home for many years. Mrs. Mary
A. Platt, 81 years of age, died Feb. 1.
Two new residents have come into the
home.
The home has been carefully and
generously maintained through the
year. The comforts of every day life,
both for the sick and the well have
been faithfully and well attended to,
and the days of feasting and joy have
also been given full consideration.
Christmas and Thanksgiving as we'll
as other occasions were duly cele-
brated. Through many special gifts
from Individual trustees and also from
others who are not trustees, much
brightness and pleasure above the
common, have come to the home peo-
pie.
Religious services have been held
which were much appreciated and en-
joyed.
The society takes this opportunity
to express very earnest thanks to all
who have added to the pleasure or
comfort of their benef1ciaries, who
have in any way aided the work.
Respectfully submitted,

The circular calling the convention
states that for many mOnthes past APP
pea.ls have come from Ireland and
from all parts of the United States
asking that a. national gathering of
Americans of Irish blood should be
held to consider the following prob
15ms and to take effective steps to-
ward their solution

and practices of Washington and JEFF
ferson, of Jackson and of Lincoln
may continue to prevail in this coun-
try.
(2) How best to preserve for Ire
land the remnant of her manhood.
90 How best to combat the infiu-
ences which misrepresent America to
ireland and Ireland to America.
"a How best to act so that at the
Congress of the Nations to be held, at
the end of the war, the legitimate
claims of Ireland may receive the full
est measure of consideration, so that
after her age-1ong sufferings Ireland
may again take her place among the

DR. Lynch praised the work of Miss
Kathryn 3. Hehir, nurse at the emer-
gency hospital, and declared her sal
airy should be increased He also ia
vored increasing the salary of Miss
Mabel l. Goldman, the charities de-
partment family visitor, rather than
appointing another to assist her.
Gentlemen, we cannot get, a, more
efficient person for that work. de-
clared the doctor.
Fireworks began again when the
items Of $22. 900 deficit for the equip
ment and SIS, 1854 building deficit at
Hillside home came up. DR.. Lynch
declared it was an affront for the
charities department to come before
the board asking for this amount
when they told the electors that the
home could be built and equipped for
SIZE, 900. President Behrens' was ques-
toned sharply about the item of 49, 900
for cottage in which the superin-
tendent and his family will live. The
members thought a less expensive
house would answer.
1T would be cheaper to have the
superintendent live at the Stratfeld,' .
said DR.. Lynch.

all. We have built a de luxe hotel
there was the comment of Commits
sioner Siemon.
Superintendent Gordon said that a
deficit of 81 ,200>in the amount for sup
plying assistance to needy persons
was caused by the influx of workmen
who came here seeking employment
at the Arms company and were with
out funds.
The board wants a, new auto trans
fer ambulance to cost $4,000. 1t is
proposed to do away with the old
horse transfer ambulance which now
makes three to four trips per day.
Superintendent Gordon called atten-
ton to the fact that the appropria-
ton for the $50 per month pension for
Mrs. Philip D. Hagerty, widow of a
lieutenant killed on duty with the fire
department. is exhausted. Money is
sion is to continue as long as she does
not remarry. In the event that she
remarries, the pension goes to her
daughter, Ethel, until the latter is 1 9
years old. The matter was referred to
the subcommittee on fire department
matters.
The board adjourned, subject to the
call of the chairman.
