Members Of the Bridgeport ASSo- ciated Charities for Industrial Relief were deeply interested in the annual meeting held tals afternoon at The Stratield. There were many new features that engrossed their atten- ton and as it has been the biggest year that the society has ever had the reports contained much of i'm portance. Officers were elected to serve during the coming year and it was said that there would be one or two changes in the personnel.
 There are five large branches to this organization beside the parent body, the Visiting Nurses associa- tion, which affiliated with the main body about two years ago; the Day Nursery, the Girls club, which does a splendid work; the Orthopedic clinic, where poor children that are crip- pied may receive the best of surgical attention and treatament, and the Founding Relief. The Associated Charities has grown into a tremen- dous organization and is of much inn portance in the city.
 Two announcements of great inter- est were that the Day Nursery prop erty had been sold to the Bridgeport Christian Union as a site for it's new building. The Christian Union prop erty is directly on the site of the proposed Plaza, and after raising the money for the new home the Union had to look about to get a suitable site. The Associated Charities has purchased the Lyon property next to the Hall Home on Main street, find ing it absolutely necessary in view of it's greatly increased activities, 1o have more room to house them.
