necessary amount for the latter has not
yet been fully subscribed. but enough
has already been given to justify the
federation in assuming the expense. con-.
ident that the remainder will be pro-
vided. There should be added a third
general appeal and that was through
the Christmas seal sale the net amount
raised for the tuberculosis work being
$2l6.50. This amount was less than the
preceding year, but the decrease was
due to the general business depression.
The federation would most apprecla-
lively acknowledge the following gifts:
Quinebaug Company 800, Goodyear
Cotton Company 500, Danielson chap

The federation also gratefully ack-

given by the Windham County Tran
script and the Norwich Morning Bulle-
tin in keeping before the public the work
being done by the organization, and II
the appreciative estimate of the quail
ity of the service rendered.
The federation is affiliated with both
the state and national association Of
public health nursing, by which connec'
| ton 1t is kept informed as to the WORK
being done elsewhere by organization!
similar to its own.
A noteworthy addition to this repori
is the fact that Mrs. E. H Reach. dur
ing the seven years that she has served
the organization as president, has nevel
been absent from a regular meeting.
Measured by the value of the work o
the federation to this community IT
membership should number hundreds in
stead of scores, and the unwaverlng 10y
atty Of those who are making possibl
i this splendid service, should be an in
centive to many others, that the futur
may record even greater things than tn
past.
