SUFFRAGIST TO
 RAISE SIOO,OOO

Hartford, May 27-In order to help in training the women of Connecti- cut for intelligent citizenship with the coming of complete enfranchisement the Connecticut Woman Suffrage as- sociation is planning a comprehensive program of education that is intend ed to reach everyone of the states coming citizens.
 This announcement was made to- day by Miss Katherine Ludington, president of the state organization, who also explained that plans are be- ing rapidly completed for raising S100, 1000, which is the estimated sum needed to enable the association to meet its responsibility to the state, she said.
 A distinct innovation in the raising of the sum sought will be that the appeal for funds will be made directly to the general public. and an intens- i've campaign will be conducted throughout the state from June to June 16. This is said to be the first time in the history of suffrage that any state organization has gone to the public for such help.
 !, The campaign for funds will be conducted by a state campaign com mittee of which Mrs. Samuel Russell. Jr., of Middletown, has been chosen ! chairman. Other members. of the state campaign committee include Mrs. Willard FTeck of Bridgeport.

CHILDREN CAIN IN WEIGHT FROM
 USE OF MILK IN SIX WEEKS
Experiment Tried In shelton School Shows Splendid Results Miss Mateson Reports Sm aIles Gain of Half Pound and Largest Gain of Three and Half Pounds From Use of Milk

As has been assured time and again by the eager milk campaign workers a couple of months ago that milk Is undeniably q most necessary food for the growth and health of the child, the result of the novel experi- ment in the Shelton school proves and certihes the real value of that principal food-milk. The experiment consisted of a six weeks diet on milk in which 22 children participated through voluntary action. Reports submitted by Miss G. l.. Matteson. Domestic school teacher at Normal school, who was in charge of the squad, shows that the greatest gain in weight obtained by the children was three and three quarters pounds and the smallest gain was q half pound in the six weeks
 In speaking of the matter today. Miss Ntatteson said: "Of course, the principal object was not the increase in weight of the children that we were striving for. but rather to stim- u1ate the interest in the youngsters for a greater use for milk, which could only come through an eXperi- ment of this kind, where they could see the value of it themselves. It
  the child could not afford to set milk at home Many of the children who tried the experiment, simply did not ike milk ana were never taught to use 1t as a food at home.
 We fed the children every day with a pint of milk, and occasionally gave little talks whereby they learned how to prepare the food; why it was absolutely necessary for them; and why they must urge the use of it at home. It was splendid opportunity to show our children the value of the milk and in the meantime. l hope, it will be a foundation for the milk stations for school children"
 IL was immediately at the close of the milk campaign carried on in the city under the auspices of the Fairfield County Farm bureau. that the orEanizatien of the milk diet squad was suggested by Miss Helen Irene Weed. Home demonstratinG agent, Miss Weed had personally known of a similar experiment tried out in New Hampshire by a Home Economies worker which had proven very successful and she thought it would be a splendid idea for any school in the city to do likewise.
 Tho faculty at the Shelton schoo: were prompt in accepting the idea and gave their strong cooperation in carrying out the entire plan. Miss Matteson was in charge of the feed ing and Miss Ludlum. the school nurse. assisted with the plan at the homes. She visited the parents of the youngsters who had volunteered to form the squad and explained the
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-05-27

necessity of accepting milk as a food for the children.
 And the children, who drank milk every day by order of Miss Matteson, before and after school studies, have now grown to like the food and ab- solutely demand it at home.
 The interest of the children in the milk and the knowledge they have gained through the experiment mean a great deal" said Miss Weed, today. Tt was a@very scientific plan, and I am glad of the fine results obtained"
 The milk was given through the generosity of various milk dealers in the city.

The Story Of the
Good Samaritan,

Once upon a time a man was
travelling along q road. He was
on his way from one city to an.
other. This road was not q safe
road like our roads. It was very
lonely, and beside it there were
rocks with dark hiding places.
Often bad men, called robbers, hid
among the rocks, and watched for
men passing by. SO that they might
steal their money. Robbers were
hiding there this day l am telling
you about They sprang out upon
the man and struck him, too, and
hurt him terribly; then they ran
away. The poor man lay by the
way-side, and he was hurt and
very badly bruised. The robbers
had nearly killed him.
