If your pride and joy returns from school some twilight soon and, for supper, demands Q "Diz- zy Dean blue plate", or Q Robert Taylor pudding, Waterbury par- entS need not be dismayed.:
 It's all in line with the new system of the Connecticut depart- ment of health's attempt to en- courage school children to take Q little more time with the meals they must, in many instances, eat at the school or nearby. The names suggested are to try to make more appetiSlng the veget- ables and salads which find their place on school cafeteria menus.
 So, whom Junior calls for @ "Carl Hubbell salad", or Sister ex- presses Q particular wish for a "Joan Crawford dessert", give 1t to them. Provided, of course, that the ingredients can be de- termined by questioning of the children.
 For the sake of the health of their children, mothers are urged by Elizabeth o. Nickerson, direc- tor of the bureau of public health instruction of the state depart- ment of health, to watch more carefully what goes into the school lunch if 1t is carried from home, and to lend complete co- operation with the allied lunch and health program in the schools which the children attend. At the same time, Miss Nickerson inc vited mothers to write to the State Department of Health for information on proper nutrition.
 Problem
 The noon-day lunch Is 6 par- ticular problem with high school pupils, since the school session ex- tends over the noon period with only 0 short time permitted for eating. Therefore, in most ia- stances, pupils do not have time to return home for lunch, and de- velop the habit of gulping their food hurriedly and of washing 1t down with large amounts of li- quid.
 This habit should be discour- aged as well as that of slipping off to the nearest store to buy food of uncertain quality instead

Work of constructing the biggest
 lNH0 ever built in Connecticut, he Mew Middletown- Portland span Nh1ee the Connecticut river, has been rapidly pushed ahead during lne past summer, and despite many unexpected problems which con- frontod engineers during the course ol construction, the structure will ho completed some time early next summer ns originally scheduled, Highway Commissioner John A. MAcdonald stated today,
 Alieust saw the substructure, meaning the foundations, piers, etc., entirely completed, and the super Structure has been advanced within E4 per cent of completion, Work on tne approaches IS also well along. The final job in connection with the hridee will be the sizeable one Of building the deck, and this will take several months, Commissioner Mac donald said. Work on the bridge was started in the spring of le36, ct which time 1t was estimated that the project would require ct least two years.
 State Pays
 Cost of this new masterpiece of steel, stone and concrete will even. tually be about $3,50000, including approaches. The entire amount will Do paid by the people of Connecticut since no federal funds were ever made availablefor the project. The cost will be about equally divided bee tween substructure and superstruc- ture, the bid price for the former by the contractors, Merritt, Chapman @ Scott, having been $l,028,b03, and for the latter by the Bethlehem Steel company sl,085,639.
 Nest unique and most valuable feature of the new Middletown- Portland bridge from the viewpoint of the motorists who use 1t, and there will be thousands crossing the bridge every day, will be the fact that traffic will be interrupted ct no time. There will be no draw or lift to open for boat traffic be- low while motor traffic is delayed above. The bridge has been built with Q clearance of 93 feet above

 Nearly Completed
Dedication Not Expected Until Early Next Year-Big'
 Rest Bridge in Connecticut Offers New Features

1 the water level in accordance with War Department regulations, SO that ell river traffic may pass be- heath it while motor traffic may flow steadily over 46-foot roadway of the structure. Building the bridge at this height was more costly than would have been Q lower bridge with Q lift span, but, after careful study and calculation of highway traffic, department engineers deter. mined that the cost of constructing Q lower bridge plus the cost of lost time and gasoline to motorists would have exceeded the cost of the high level structure finally de. cided upon.
 Construction Features
 Including It's approaches built on piers on both shores of the river, the bridge will measure about 2-3 of o mile. The actual length of the main river spans will be l,2l0 feet, and will consist of two arch spans of equal length. The highest point of the roadway and the six- foot sidewalks on both sides of 1t will be l04 feet above the water while the tops of the arches will rise l98 feet above the river. The bridge goes down below the water to almost as great Q distance as 1t rises above 1t, for the maximum depth of the center pier at which the arches are tied in ll6 feet be- low the low water mark.
 The now completed substructure required 22,000 cubic yards of ex- cavation, 24,600 cubic yards of concrete, 460 cubic yards of ma sorry, 10000 barrels of cement, and 2,l00 tons of steel in caissons, pile ing and reinfrocing. Approximately $500 tons of steel Is now spanning the river in the superStructure.

NO PREFERENCE GIVEN
FOR COULEE DAM LABOR

Preferred counties bordering the
Grand Coulee dam have lost their
advantage in the placing OF labor
ers ON the huge project, according
to reports made recently. The
change was brought about by a
change in financing the project,
whereby funds for the completion
of the structure will be from diff
ferent source and the ruling will
not apply.
Since the project was started
the National ReempQoyment Service
was supposed to hire all men from
OkanOgan, Douglas and Grant
counties if the skilled and unskill-
ed men were available. Though
many men worked on the huge
project from the preferred coun-
ties many thousands have been
hired from other parts of the state
and nation.

MOST DANGEROUS TRAFFIC
PERIOD HAS ARRIVED

Driving during this month and the
next is more dangerous than at any
other time in the year.
This was the warning sounded to-
cay by David c. Guilbert, safety di-
rector Of the Inland Automobile asso-
citation, who pointed out that the ac-
cident curve which begins its annauI
upward climb in July reaches its high
est peak at tho close of the year.
"The average OATH ration, on the
basis of gasoline consumption, stands
at 26.1 in November, and 2s.7 in
DECEMBER, as compared with only
1874 in june" Mr.. Guilbert said.
|" Perhaps ono Of the principal causes
for this is the small amount of day
light at this time of the year. Car
operation during twilight and dark
ness is considerably more hazardous
than in broad daylight and during
December the peak evening traffic
rush occurs during q time Of practi
Gully complete darkness.
The fact that with the beginning
of winter the motorist must accust-
ON himself to more severe driving
conditions, such as sleet and snow,
also plays an important part.
"But whotever the reason, it is
cloar that the winter months call for
added measures of caution. The car
shocld be kept in perfect condition
and the motorist should more than ev-
or obey the injunstion:' Slow down at
sundown.'n
