Holy Name Society Has
 Elected Officers for the
 Present Year.
 Under the auspices of the Ladies of | Charity, St. Vincent de Paul, an all | star concert is to be given in Polls | theatre on Main street, on Sunday | afternoon, January 27, at o'clock | Owing to the very crowded conditions | at St Vincent's hospital the need for more room has become imperative and | the proceeds from this concert are to | go toward fund to build a new wing. The Ladies of Charity, St. | Vincent de Paul, is the auxiliary of St Vincent's hospital and was found ed on April 1, 1906. This society has rendered the greatest service to- ward the upkeep of the hospital and it is it's hope that the public may have keen realization of the worth mess of this charity.
 It was felt that charity begins at home and that as it is necessary to care for the local patients and those who may be expected in the near fu- ture to say nothing of those who will come from the other side when this terrible war is over, the addition to the hospital was very much of a ne- cessity. The care of the sick is a charity that we will always have with tn hn nTf- ed. An excellent program is being arranged for this concert which will be announced later.
 Miss Caroline RuutzIRees of Greenwich, is to preside over the meeting of the Fairfield County Suf- frage Association, of which she is the chairman, on Friday, at the Stratfield. Reports of the different leagues will be heard in the morn ing at Il o'clock and there will be a luncheon at 1 o'clock. In the af- ternoon new business will be taken the Federal amendment. It is ex- pected that delegates will be present from seventeen 1agues.

Beck it, e-president; Frank P. Munich, secretary; Louis F. Langford, treas urer. The report of MT. Langford showed that the society was in ex- celIent condition. It was announc ed that members of the society who are serving their country, be re- tained in good standing and be en- titled to all the benefits of the so- ciety.
