 "The activities and work accom- plishcd by the day nursery are very little knoWn,' Miss Feonry said. The nursery was formed during the world war. in 1Hl> All children are ad- mltted to the nursery regardless Of religion. color or age. At present the home looks after 1u children q day, although at times over 50 chill dren have been aCcOnlln odatel. Th. small number al present is due 10 unemployment conditions. A child is given a complete examination by the board of health before being admit ted to the nursery The nursery proved to be very hcalthtul during the past winter. not d single case Of any disease being found.
 The nursery charges - cents q day for the upk."p ot the child. The nor. children the less the charge. The place is opened every morning at 6:3o o'clock and il is pitiful to sec the condition Of some of the children who are brought in for care. Many times they are undernourshed end have. very little warm clothing. The older children are washed mp and prepared for school. At $50 o'clock breakfast is served and at ! 80 o'clock hot dinner is served to the smaller children. They arc then washed and put 10 bod so that they will be out of the way when the school children arrive. The school children are then washed and fed After every meal t toothbrush drill is held. After the school chil- drcn have returned to school the smaller tolS arc given toys and other things tC amusc themselves, They ar. allowed to make all th" noise they want brcaus. the nursery be- liev"s that activity in the child is the keynote of life.
 "rhc present nursery has proven 10 be very insufficient 10 take care Of the needs of the children. The quarters are cramptd and the rhll- .lrcn do not get 'hv air and light they should, Besides the speaker, there is only one other girl working at tho nursery and all the work of cooking, washing, ironing. etc. falls upon the shoulders ot these two. Most nurseries have recreation rooms, Kindergarten classes of the highest types but these are missing ill this city. A new homo will be opened shortly at q Winter street and many modern lmproveme ents are expected to be installed there, This new home was made possible by the late Benjamin W.

 In refusing Remus bail pending d hearing on an appeal from the de cision of the third district court of appeals at Lima that the former
 bootleg king is sane. the supreme court also denied a request to vacatc the entry of the appeal.

 The resolution has been proposed by subcommittee of the clubs committee on national affairs, the Times says, and will. come up for action at meeting of the full com mittee at o'clock this afternoon.
 Ieling Is Tense
 The paper says that feeling be- tween tho vets and drys i'll the club has become so intense that resigna- ton of some of the dry members is feared if the committee should vote 10 submit the resolution to the club and it should be adopted.
