Annual Report Explains Need For Health Center in City-Of1cers For Year Elected.

A plea for public health center was made by Miss Cora M, Beale, ex- ecutive secretary of the New Britain Welfare association at the annual meeting of the board of directors last evening. Miss Beale's report for tho year was as follows: ,E7
 To the Directors of the Welfare As-
 sociation of New Britain:
 The name of this society has been changed from the New Britain Char ity Organization to the Welfare asso- ciation of New Britain. The change of name means no change in the pur- pose, character, or work of the or ganization. The word Welfare has been chosen in place of Charity" in order that the name might more ade- quately describe the character of the work done. The work Is indeed of a charitable nature in the true sense of the word, as we endeavor to ex- press our love toward humanity by serving our fellowmen. A society in- terested in the welfare of the needy gives service and not aims. It is easy to give, but to give wisely is difficult. The Welfare association places the greatest stress on it's work

Since the world was peopled,. human beings aevs been placed in families upon this earth and constructive work is lest if the emphasis Is put upon the inai= vsaaa4 seeafately from the combined group called family, in which he he= lohgs.
 - Aends Helping Hand.
 A speaker at the national confer enee of social work said, IA city is as good as It's police force." We go step further and say, "A city is as good as It's average. family standard" :" Look at the standards of the homes in your community; take the aver age family group and their methods
 or living will express the standing of your community in morals, culture,
 and citizenship. Some families have been shattered, some are struggling to
 keep together. The Welfare asse-
 citation lends a helping hand to as- sist them fight the battle and regain
 their normal standing and to rebuild, | if possible, the shattered circle. Fam
 fly rehabilitation is a difficult task. The social worker has need for
 deep insight into human nature and for the Judgment. knowledge, and ability gained from training along lines of social service, psychology, and economics.
 Friend of the Family.
 Throughout our land every sizeable city has its trained social worker. The work of social service among fami- lies Is no longer. an experiment.; all
 through our country the value of or ! gan1zed social work has been proved.
 Many a city owes much to its welfare organization. As the association be- | comes friend of the family. 1t finds
 that most of the constructive work
 must be done through the children.
 Most of the problems are there. as | family work and child welfare are in- separable.
 Home Vs. Institution.
 l A poor home is generally better
 than a good institution, and home is never broken up because of pover- ! ty alone. Sometimes illness means a temporary breaking of home ties, but unless the moral tone of the home endangers the child, or the parents are otherwise wholly unfit to have supervision of the children, they
 should not be released from the re-
 sponsibility of bringing up their
 family. When all else has failed and
 the state must become the parents for
 the neglected child, the problem
 arises of obtaining the best suitable

A few drops of "Outgro" upon the
 skin surrounding the ingrowing nail
 reduces inflammation and pain and so toughens the tender, sensitive skin
 underneath the toe nail, that it can not penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns naturally outward almost over night. "Outgro" is a harmless, antiseptic

At the court game the Babe proved

one of the largest OF its kind ever

He was with the Hoover expedition
at one time He was in Russia with
the American forces, and at other
times in the Balkans. II was while
he was in Belgrade that he was in
formed by a fellow officer stationed
at Constantinople that a Turk near
the city was proclaiming his ffsttc
prOwess and inviting quarrel with
my one who dared dispute It.
The Captain grabbed the first
means Of transportation and FASTENED
in that direction Accompanied by
several other Americans. Mabbutt
sought the pugnacious person and
found him at q seaside place a days
ride from the Turkish capital. The
little group Of officers reclined In the
sand and waited. The terrible Turk
approached clad only N a loin cloth
and fez. A discussion occurred And
the Captain challenged the "eat-' n

called for the gloves They were

and stepped In to slaughter him.
Then two things happened. The

the battle for that day. But there is
sequel. One of the officers. not
