Fairfield

Under the leadership of Stats Po- lice Sergeant Virelu, several officers descended upon Fairfield yesterday afternoon and raided several barber shops and a lunch room in an effort to stamp out punch board gambling which has been in existence here for many months. The state officers tseized the boards but made no ar rests.
 Warnings were given to the own- .ers of the places where the punch boards were in play that if they wers found again with the boards they would be arrested. This game of chance has been the regular indoor sport" for many FairfieIders who have money to spend. It has been one of F,airfieid's winter sports.
 A perplexins problem brought up by the confiscation Of the punch ,soards Is "who gets the prize and do we get our money baek?' This prob lem will probably be discussed at some future debate when the wits of the village will engage in a battle of words. But, most likely the entire matter will be dropped regarding the return of money invested as it Is hint ,d that some of F,airfteld's prominent ] :itizens and eSRxehgoers have been

Egg Dealers
 Hear The Law

About 300 wholesale and retail egg dealers of this city and nearby towns were present at a talk given yesterday afternoon at the Welfare building when State Food and Dairy Commits sioner Thomas Holt outlined the re- vision of the law concerning the sale of cold storage and incubated eggs. finder the new law any egg which has been held in refrigeration for more than IS days is held to be a cold storage and all crates containing such eggs must be stamped with letters at least two inches high and one-half inch broad, "Co1d Storage Eggs" and all card board containers must bear the same wording in letters one and one- half inches high and three-quarters of an inch broad. Violations of this law will be prosecuted from now on.

Miss Helen E. Shelton. of 654
 Laurel avenue, and Miss Gladys I.
 Thomas of 514 Central avenue, have
 been honored at Mount Holyoke col
 lege, by being chosen members of the
 Mount Holyoke College carol choir.
 The group is composed of about 130
 of the best voices in the school and
 will give two concerts, one in Spring field auditorium on Friday evening, December 16th and the second in AeHan hall. in New York, Tuesday afternoon. December goth.
 The program will consist of the Christmas carols of many nations, tn- i cluding the English, French, German. Russian and Bohemian, dating from the 18th century onward. As all carols are sung without notes and in i the native tongue, a great deal Of study is necessary. Some of the most beautiful carols are sung 8 cape1ia ! (unaccompanied.) The harp, violin
 and cello accompaniments used for some of the others and the organ se- | lections have been carefully arranged | to blend with the delicacy of the girls 1 voices, and to keep the fresh simple l Christmas spirit which pervades the l whole program. The proceeds Of the concerts are used in the Mount Hol- ! yoke endowment fund.

 Now under the new law. if neither of the persons applying for licenses in Connecticut Is a resident Of the town, the clerk may not issue a l- cense i'll the fifth day following the request, unless the Judge Of Probate in the district where the impending wedding is to be celebrated decides in writing that public policy or the physical condition of one of the par ties makes it necessary to effect the i11 arriage without delay.

ENLARGED TOE JOINTS.
By EDNA KENT FORBES

ENLARGED TOE JOINTS.
 If you find that the joint at the end the foot join is growing larger. you should take immediate measures to correct it. A sufficiently largo toe Joint is a bunion. It is not only Some chiropodists will tell you that there is nothing to be done for a joint that has become enlarged, but I am much more optomistic and I think that if you will faithfully follow this advice, you will be pleased with the results:
 First of all, you must change the type of shoes you are wearing. An enlarged toe joint is probably caused by shoes with too short a vamp or with toes that come to a point and so draw together the toes of the foot. Purchase yourself low-heeled shoes which have a straight inner last, room enough for the toes and a sui ficiently long vamp. In other words. get shoes that fit.
 Then try this exercise. You will find that the big toe is rather stiff and hard to move. Take hold of it with the fingers and begin to move 1t up and down and out from the foot and back again to the other toes. Do this for at least, five minutes and do it every day In a short inc, you will find that you have made the toe flexible so it can be moved easily. Keep uD this exercise every day. It
 
 unless you wear very bad shoes in T deed. 1t may even nelp to reduce the large joint.
 There are various healing lotions which can be used. Some chiropo 4 dists recommend iodine. but before, you use this. I would advise you tcl ask your doctor how often the join should be painted.
 Fatty:-It should take, at least three or four months to throw off 3 . pounds as you should be building II good firm muscles while you are con suming the fatty tissue. Tomatod are not fattening and neither are tn other things you mention. If yol need a diet chart from which il make your food selection, send 1 stamped addressed envelope and 1 shall be glad to mail one to you.
