CHARLES WEIBELL
 TO SPEAK HERE
Lecture Wednesday Even ing at Bridgeport High School Relative to Care of Disabled Soldiers.

A very interesting illustrated lec> ture of wide intrest relative to the care of crippled and disabled soldiers will be given on Wednesday evening, May 21, at the Bridgeport high school, under the auspices of the Home Ser vice section of the Red Cross Dr. Lucy Osborne Wright of the Red Cross, New York city, where she had been in charge of the section devoted to the care of disabled soldiers and Charles Weibell, will be the principal speakers.
 MT. WeibelI, who has met with an accident before the outbreak of the war. which caused him the loss of both his legs, is a most remarkable character. His accomplishments equal the normal man in every way and he. participates in all activities which in terest him. He can play baseball and other sports and earnestly believes that his misfortune in losing both legs is not as serious as he had at first supposed. He will talk on what a. sol dier. crippled and disabled from the war, may still accomplish and be a happy member of society.
 The committee arranging the 1ec- ture include Mrs. Jacob Klein, chair man, A. Vincent, E. F. Hotchkiss, A. D. Mcdonald, Gerald Lineburgh, E. W. Carpenter, H. K. 'MalIett-
 A cordial invitation is extended by the committee to all interested to be present. Moving pictures will be shown to illustrate the lecture.

INTEREST SHOWN
 IN EXHIBITS

Demonstration at the Food Hut are attracting statewide attention and are becoming more and more inerest- ing to the women of Bridgeport. At the exhibit and talk by Miss Gladys Green yesterday afteL4oon at the Hut a large and appreciative audience was present. Miss Green had arranged a fine display of hats made up of
 crepe pink rose, linen, and checked
 gingham, suitable for sports wear and a number of dresses made up of flour bags.
 The use of commercial patterns. remodelling clothes and the pale"
 of the shirt were some of the things
 discussed and explained. There was
 a table showing how to mend by ma
 chine. which can be done more
 quickly and in a more satisfactory
 manner than by hand. Suggestions
 for alarming were welcomed and many questions brought up by the women
 we~e explained by Miss Green.
 The making of the hat was the most interesting feature of the after noon. Miss Green explained every step taken in the development of the hat and when she finally completed her work, the result was an attractive hat of checkered gingham. The Food Hut will hold a series of such | demonstrations to which all women 1 interested are cordially invited. EX- i hTbits of the work will be held at the Public Library throughout the season and plans are also being made for such exhibits at the North Main street library.
