Hartford but It Is more than a collec-
ton OF dry statistics and formal his
fory-it - the tale OF bridges since a
big trunk was first used to span a

now occupies the site.
The first bridge across the Connect.
cut IN sConuecticut was that connectinr

was a covered bridge. 1000 feet long

A WINTER WISH.

From where the owlets meet and screechr

The cracking pine. and cedar gweo;
Bring. too, a clump Of fragrant peat.
Dug meath the fern;
The knotted oak
A fagot, too, perhap,
Whose bright fame dancing vfnkinR,
Shall light US at our drinking;
While oozing sap
Shall make sweet music to our thinking
Old books to readi
Ays bring those nodes Of wit.
The brazen- clasped, the vellun wit.

Brooklyn Charity worker Speaks.

The election of officers concluded the
business of the meeting and then Mrs.
Clarence A. Carr. associated with the
Brooklyn bureau of charities, gave a very
interesting talk on the work in Brook
'lyn. Mrs. Carr laid special emphasis on
the value of the follow-up work of the
volunteer worker after the trained work
er had made an investigation of the cases
where aid was needed. 1t is not only
necessary to nurse a poverty stricken
family back to health, but it is equally
as necessary to see that this family be-
comes self supporting. Mrs Carr told of
various cases where this had been done
with marked success She also spoke
of the value of reasoning with families
regarding their living conditions and adj
vocated that as much help Should be
given the needy as possible, but above all
try and make the family self supporting
either by finding employment for the
family or in helping the younger men,
bers to secure an education that would
make them self supporting citizens. A
number of interesting cases where this
has been worked out to advantage were
cited by Mrs. Carr.
Mrs. Carr was given a rising vote OF
| appreciation at the conclusion of her taIk
as was the choir and others who had as
sisted at the meeting. The beautiful,
flowers that adorned the presidents table
on the platform were the gift of Miss
Louise Ernst.
