Your correspondent has spent the
last week attending the county board
meeting at Madison For this reason
the news items are scarce, SO will have
to fill in with a little write up from
Madison. The board were invited to a
supper at the Public Welfare associa-
ton last Thursday evening. A major
lite of the members attended the con-
ference and supper. The purpose of
the conference was to acquaint the
members of the board with the meth
DDS of relief work done by the associa-
ton. The members were shown through
the nursery and free clinic maintained
by the association and their work ex-
planned by Mrs. John S. Donald of the
Mothers Pension board and others
Here the poor people may bring their
children and have them examined for
eye, ear and throat trouble, and also
their teeth. They have dentists and
doctors who come there certain days
every week and do this work free of
charge. The free nursery is one feat
ure of the good work done here The
mothers may bring the children there
when they go to their work and come
and get them in the evening when they
return to their homes. Mrs. William
Kttle in explaining the work done said
that these mothers earnings amounted
to 10 thousand dollars per year and this
was made possible by having this nurs-
cry. Some of the mothers came for
their children while the board were
there and they appeared well contented
The building they are occupying was
given to them by Mrs. Villas. q Brief
talks were given by Judge Hoppmann,
Rev. Hunt and others. The members
Of the board attending were very much
pleased with the visit and could see
that this association and the county
could work harmeniously together in
doing relief work. AS was explained
there the funds for operating the asso-
citation were raised by volunteer sub
scription in the city, and so the work
was intended for those in the city, but
If application for an examination came
from outside the city they would not be
turned away. They are doing good
work and should receive all the encour-
agement possible.
