NEGLECNEDz EDzCHILDREN ARE
 UIsCTTSEu IN REPoR

The placing out of dependent and neglected children in Connecticut is con- sidered in detail by the child welfare commission in the second volume of it's report distributed in part Tuesday. Stud ies of the present system of organization in this state, the previous history of the children concerned and their present cir- The commission has confined its atten- tion in this section to description of ex- isting conditions leaving the queston of proposed statutory changes as it stands in the first volume of the report published in January.
 'The study of private placinexout agencies" says the report, shows them to be doing effective work in limited field. It indicates that cklld-caring inr stitutions are realizing the need for train ed workers to deal both with admissions and placements.
 The study of children placed out from the county homes has served to en- phasize the fact that there is both a lack of adequate facilities to care for depend ent and neglected children. and a failure ] to make the best use of the facilities which exist.
 "A child may be placed in q foster | home by the county Commissioners. the superintendents of the county homes. the
 
 bureau or the state board of charities After placement he may be visited by any | or all of these persons or by none" l AS a result of this division of power | and the reported lack of investigation and | supervision. the commission finds tha' "the placed-out chltdren of Connecticut have been found to be overworked ex plotted, poorly educated, poorly trainet and twisted and thwarted from norma development. More than twice as many foster parents took children for the ser. vice the children could render them al took them for the service they might ren der to the children"
 As a basis for it's report the commis sion studied the cases of 157 children. or ten per cent. of the 1883 children a present placed out from the count homes. In addition, it made a genera study of 142 other county home wards Difficulty was encountered in locatin. children, as nearly one-half of the ad dresses given in the records were founc to be incorrect. For instance the re port says, '1n endeavoring to locate girl about whom nothing had been seer for seven years, the trail led from charity organization society to priest. t closed orphan asylum, to a lodgin house keeper. to a restaurant, to a pO lice station, to a relative, to the child home where the mother denied that he daughter was the child in question. an finally to school where the child wa found and Identified"
 i, The establishment of a state bureau C ,d child welfare is recommended by tn , commission as a means of oo-ordinatfn and supervising the work of placing GU children The hearing of the bill creatin this bureau Is scheduled for Thursday March 10.

OBITUARY.

Ambrose Darling passed away at his home in Salem, March 3, at the advanced age of 95 years and months. Though his strength had been gradually failing for three years his condition had not been serious until he suffered slight shock a few days before his death and a sud- den cold terminated his life.
 MT. Darling was born in Amenia, Duchess county, New York, July II, 1925, and his early life was spent in that vicinity.

 Mir Darling was man of unusual ae- tivity, successfully operating a large farm until past ninety years of age. He retained till late in life an inimitable hu- nor and gift for clever anecdote. AL most to the end of his life his memory remained unelouded and his narratives of | life and people of nearly a century ago were unfailingly delightful. His helping hand, ever ready for friend or neighbor, and his genial personality will be long re- membered by all who knew him. Such a | life of sterling, honesty and worth is a 1 blessing to the community in which it was lived.
 Funeral services were held at his late home Sunday at 2 o'clock. Rev. W. S. | rNL My God to Thee was sung by MT and l Mrs Clark of Salem. Burial was in the family plot at Leff1ngwell cemetery.
