 Mrs. King had rushed in to Saunders.
 Together they had descended the
 stairs The door of the study was
 open, and a candle was burnng upon
 the ta ble. Their master lay upon his
 face in the centre of the room. He was unite dead. Near the window his wife was crouching, her head leaning against the wall. She was horribly wounded. and the side of her face was red with blood. She breathed heav iIy, but was incapable of saying any thing. The passage, as well as the room. was full Of smoke and the smell of powder The window was certain l ly shut and fastened upon the inside. Both women were positive upon the point They had at once sent for the doctor and for the constable. Then, stabIe-boy. they had conveyed their | liniured mistress to her room. Both she and her husband had occupied the bed. She was clad in her dress-he i in his dressing gown, over his night clothes. Nothing had been moved in the study. So far as they knew, there had never been any quarrel between husband and wife They had always looked upon them as a very united couple.

There are five important food groups. Every one of these groups has a special purpose in nourishing your body. You need some food from each group daily in order to give your body the right kind of nour- ishment. It is important that you don't skip any of the groups. They are arranged a. follows:
 Vegetables and fruits help to keep nltny of the parts of the body run ming smoothly. It doesn't matter very much what kind you choose and the most expensive ones are often times not as valuable to you as the cheaper ones.
 Cerea1s-Bread and breakfast foods are made from grain, meal and flour which act as fuel to your body, help ing you to dit your work as the gaso- line burning in an automobile engine makes the engine go. They also help to give your body Q little building ma teTia1.
 Sugar and syrups are also fuel. They help to give flavor to the other foods They are the least fmpor- tant of any of the foods given in the five groups Sweet fruits including d1ded ones like dates and raisins, con tain much sugar and are better for children than too much candy.
 Milk cheese, eggs, fish, meat, peas beans are the builders of the body. They rep1enish and rebuild the parts

VISITING NURSES
 TO HEAR LECTURE
 BY MISS STACK

Miss Margaret K. Stack. the di- rector of the Bureau of Child Hygiene and the Division of Public Health Nursing in the State Department of Health, will speak in the hall of the Welfare building at s D. rn.. Friday evening, April 22. This lecture will be given under the auspices of the Visiting Nurse Association to the pupil nurses of the Bridgeport hos 4,it<aI and St. Vincents hospital. All others who are interested in hearing Miss Stack speak about the wgrk of
 the State Department are invited to attend
 Miss Stack became the director Of the Division of Public Health NurS-
 ing of the State Department of Health
 during the war when she was the field director of the children's work done by the Council of Defense of the state. Her knowledge of public health nurs- ing conditions in the state is wide spread and her work has been most important. At first the problem she dealt with was one of telling com munities what tHe public health nurse could do in their midst, and as Il con sequence, a number of townships en- gagged a, visiting nurse. After that, l the problem before her was to pro- l vide nurses with adequate training | and experience to do the work Miss l Stack has a most interesting aEA | charming personality.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-04-21
YOUR FOOD WITH PROPER
 CARE AND FORETHOUGHT

Milk is the most important in the whole list Don't skimp on milk. Buy at least a pint for each member Of the family No other food has the same value and no other food can take it's place Save on meat if you must by substituting dried peas and beans, but do not save on milk.
 Fats are also fuel. These are needed by hard-worl1ing people Elk pensive fats, like expensive fruits and vegetables, are no better for the body. Use drippings from bacon and other leftover fats. When the butcher tries to keep the trimmings from your meat tell him they belong to you. Children need a great deal of butter fat for, their growing bodies.
 By the careful selection Of the less exDensfve foods in each group, you can save money by combining them with just enough of these that cost more in order to secure the proper flavor and texture. You may eA- change one food for another in the same group. In this way, oatmeal may be used in place of wheat; vege- tables may be used instead of fruit eggs, cheese dishes or sometime: beans. may be had instead of meat but there is nothing that can take the place of milk for nourishment. We depend largely upon starchy foods and fats for most of the fuel il our diet. Cereals are usually tht l cheapest fuel food

WELSH CHORUS
 TO APPEAR HERE
 AT CONCERT

A concert being greatly anticipated here is the Welsh Mountain Ash Male Chorus which will appear here at the United Congregational church on Tuesday evening, May 5rd, under aus pices of the Mems Club.
 Wales has long been famed as 2 land Uf singers, for all who live in it's mountains seem to possess voices of rare beauty. T. Glyndwr Richards is the conductor and his chorus pre- sents not only Welsh songs and com positions, but the standard works of other nations as well. The men who make up the Mountain Ash Chorus are faultleSsly trained as individ uals and when it comes to collective work there is spOntaneity. unity and har- mony that is nothing short of mar velous.
 The Mountain Ash Chorus sang in Bridgeport about a year and a half ago under the auspices of the Manu- lecturers Chorus At that time they presented a program the variety and skillful execution of which made a deep impression all who heard it.
 Tickets for this concert are now on sale, and seats may be reserved without extra charge at Steinert's af- ter April tWenty-fourth.
