GRoToN IRON WORKS NOTES
 WILL MATURE APRu. sR,

Notes of creditors of the Groton Iron Works, maturing April 3, are being pre- sented at New London for collection. The notes. however are payable at the Trav- elers' Bank and Trust Co.,, in Hartford, which has trust mortgage on. property of the company. As April is Sunday, the notes will become due on April 4.
 From statements made by Attorney Burdette for the Groton Iron Works in the superior court in New London last Friday afternoon, it is considered very douetful if the company will be able to meet the payments of the notes, which will then go to protest. The notes were issued year ago and were for 40 per cent of the amount of claims of credit DTS. Nine hundred and fourteen of the notes were issued at the time.
 The series of notes which became due on October 5 caused some trouble by tardiness and complications in the pay ments. which was finally adjusted by the payment of 20 per cent of the amount of the notes and issuing new notes for the balance.

 lack of space to- accommodate them. An increase In the number of cots fer chil-
 dren necessarily involves an increase in every department. particularly in the
 training school for nurses.
 During the past year 100 children between the ages of five and 10 years have been under the care of the Sisters of St. Joseph at St. Johns school in Deep
 River. The limited accommodations at the home erbarrass the sisters in their effort to provide for the dependent chill dren who turn to them for refuge and
 support.
 Tn order to solve the problem or the | dependent by the r:ost constructive meca- ods a program has been planned by our | social bureaus in Hartford. New Haven fand Bridgeport that is designed to re-
