 Pupils Better Of In School
 During the recent stormy weather schools have been in session as usual with the exception of one-half day session for the pupils of the first foul grades. Many children are better of in school in stormy weather than play. ing out of doors in the snow about their homes or on the streets. Int teachers examine the children closely to see whether they are wet from snow before they are allowed to take theii seats. The school nurse examined all the children in the Israel Putnam school during the severe snow storm Monday to make sure that no one was sitting in wet clothing.
 Parents who are notified that theii children are suffering from malnutri ton are often puzzled to know exact l ly what the term malnutrition means Malnutrition does not mean usually that the child is not getting enough t' eat; he may be getting enough food but food of the wrong kind Malnu triton more often means that there l something wrong with the child s' that he does not assimilate properl, what he does eat This faulty assim ilation may be due to defective teeth tonsils and adenoid erowths A chil is not suffering from malnutritio necessarily if he IS under weight.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

In the fifth consecutive victory of the season the Putnam High school triumphed over Wells High of South bridge. in the hall at Southbridge last Saturday evening. The game was played as the preliminary to a fast game between Southbridge and Springfield town teams. and there was a large attendance The Southbridge quints. put up very little opposition and Putnam led at half time by g to 3. and al the end of the game, 90 to i2 The refcreeing was strieter, ap- parcntly. than either team had been accustomed to play under, as Ii per sonal fouls were called on each team, and two men on each side put out of the contest with four personals. For the last few minutes. because of the few substitutes that had been brought to Southbridge the local team had only four players on the floor Harrison. the regular center. was not on hand, and Mccoy started at center, with Donovan taking his place as forwars
 l wo 0ames ontght
 The double header with TourteIlotte High and Woodstock Academy comes of this evening in the gymnasium. The entire game with Woodstock, rat ed the stronger of the two teams, will be played. and then the entire contest with Tourtellotte, the former starting at s o'clock, and the latter shortly be- fore 9. Putnam is expected to win both. unless some unexpected mishap occurs.
 Plainlield Coming Here
 The game with Plain6eld High in this city will be played next Monday evening instead of Friday evening, as originally scheduled, the latter date having been selected for the Junior Prom. The Plainfield contest will doubtless be an interesting one. the town to the south usually presenting a strong lineup. This is league game and will have considerable bearing on the championship of the Quinebaug Valley league.
 Whether or not the school will play  two games with Foxboro is still unde- cided Two games were scheduled, but now the management IS endeavor- ing to cancel these contests, in order to play better known team, and one perhaps that is stronger.

Motorists who accompany The Light
automobile caravan on its visit to
Pleasanton Sunday afternoon are
promised an afternoon of unusual d.
version. In the first place, there will
be all the features which have made
past caravan tours so pleasant in ad-
dition to several others, arranged by
this newspaper and the cooperating
dealer to make the afternoon enjoyable
in every respect.
Until recently the road to Pleasan-
ton was in such bad repair that very
few San Antonians were willing TO
visit the Atascosa city in their cars
and consequently very little is known
here of the beautiful scenery and many
interesting attractions in that vicinity.
In the last several months, however,
the Pleasanton-San Antonio highway
has been paved the entire distance,
providing one of the most delightful
lzssTes to be found in this section of
the state.
The Light caravan tours so far this
season have been confined to points
north and east of San Antonio. The
country south of tbs city, which boasts
scenery just as beautiful as any found
in other directions will be visited by
the caravan for the first time Sunday
when the trip is made to Pleasanton.

As on the New Braun Is tour, The
Light has arranged to send over a
truckload of ice cold soda water. The
Winerich Motor Sales Company has
announced it will provide truckload
of watermelons. So there will be
plenty of refreshments for all.

The caravan tours have proved a
success beyond The Lights fondest ex-
pectations. Although only three trips
have been made, on the average of 1000
motorists are now accompanying the
caravans.
The Light extends an invitation to
all motorists who desire to visit
Pleasanton to join the caravan Sun

driven makes no difference, the flivver
owner being just as welcome as the
man who drives limousine.

THE CAPITAL

Human hearts are the same all

have universal appeal, no mat

Irritation of the volume of short
stories written by Aniza Yezierska
which comes to the Capital theatre
tonight and Thursday. The dra-
matte and spiritual qualities that
marked Miss Yezicrska's short
stories have been retained in the
picture-the author herself has
borne witness to that fact. The
photoplay also has the same heart
appeal and the same humor.
The story of this family which
crossed the ocean to New York in
search of liberty, justice, and the
lofty ideals which they believed
were to be found here, is told nat
urally and yet most dramatically,
with an underlying stratum of hu-
NOR and comedy which nature
mingles in the comedy of human
| life.

potash and Pcrlmutter," when he
first saw the picture run off after
having been engaged to write some
of the titles. f.. Mason Hopper di-
rected the photoplay with his ac-
customed skill, sympathy and
knowledge.
The cast lives up to Goldwyn's
reputation of providing the best
casts obtainable for its produc-
tons. Bryant Washburn and Helen
Ferguson have the leads. Other
big roles are acted by E. A. War
