(BY THE ABRIGADORIAN)

Harry Danaher, caretaker at the WigWam Reservoir, for nearly 40 years, was buried Monday. The Old Hill or rather the Abrigador of old knew him well. And why shouldn't we? Didn't he live up here among us for various years before he was appointed to the position he held for so many years. He was married here, he lived here, and he with others repre- sented this section in the old Company G of the Nineties, when the members of the National Guard wore regulation blue uni forms, attractive to the eye, and the envy of all young men who didn't belong to- the militia.
 Cheerful Disposition
 We knew Harry Danaher well; the papers said his first name was Patrick, but we knew him by no other name than Harry. He was a cheerful fellow, happy, and gra- ciouLs upon all occasions, and friendly with everybody. Why, in the days when our district was represented on the volunteer force of the fire department, Harry was a member of Old Rose Hill, then comprising many of the best known residents of the old and famous Hill. His employment was ill the old Jewelry shop, Steele and Johnson's, now a defunct fac- tory. He was employed there when he went to the WigWam, just before the new century arrived. What busy little institution the old Jewelry shop was; the same was true of the old Webb shop, and the Clock case shop, both of Mill street and both of which have since gone into the discard. Hundreds of our old time residents worked in these places, including many of our young women. They all seemed to be well pleased, and satisfied with their work. They were 8 jolly lot Of girls, too. They lived well; their good parents saw they had almost everything it was possible for working people in the old days.
 True, the daily wage, was not what it is today; it didn't have to be to attract; we lived better, we think, in spite of the great strides of so-claled improvement. At least we felt better; we didn't worry over our jobs as we have to do to- day. The family larder was al- ways filled and we never went hungry. The family head on the Hill years ago was good provider; he made sure of this because he worked steadily, and saw that the home was never neglected.
 Served In Company G
 Harry Danaher served in Com pany G under the we'll liked and much respected, Capt. Alfred J. Wolff; our memory is that Harry was a n-commisioned officer. His uniform was immaculate, his build or figure had a military bearing, and he marched gallantly with head erect and in keeping with the rest of the military or ganization. His days at Mantle at the annual encampment were made enjoyable by the popularity of the man, among members Of other units as well as his own. He was at Mantle at the time hun

P. H. ('Harry') Danaher
Late Caretaker of Wigwam Reservoir Known Among Veterans of Company G, Old Rose Hill Fire Company - Cheerful Disposition Widely Admired.
ireds of Waterburians celebrated

dreds of Waterburians celebrated Governors day; when special trains were run on Friday of en- campment week for the benefit of the parents and sweethearts of the members. Harry was among the committee of welcome; he seldom let Waterbury resident get past old Company G street. Dinner was provided for all, as we called the midday meal in those days.
 Yes, Harry Danaher, has gone the way of all, but he is bound to be remembered by the hundreds who knew him when he lived up here among us. And then, too, by the hundreds who visited him at the WigWam. The grounds in and about the Morris reserviors were kept in tip top shape by Harry; he was indeed a faithful city servant, as the late City En- gineer R. A. Cairns used to refer to him. Strange, it seems that the two men who really supplied wat CT for the people of Waterbury for these many years, seemed to go at almost the same time. Harry Danaher is severe loss to the good family he leaves behind.
 Impressive Service
 It did us good to see a Water bury clergyman officiate at the funeral of MT. Danaher, the Rev. John McGrath, pastor of Saint Thomas's church, Thomaston, where the funeral took place, and himself a native of Waterbury. Father McGrath was too young to remember Harry Danaher as a military man, but he got to know him later as an active member of his parish. The service was most impressive, and the singing exceptionally fine. We like to see Waterbury natives officiate at funerals of well known Waterbury persons.

Your potato dope in yesterdays
issue is our peeve No. 1.
Far be it from the Washington
Early Crops, Inc. to advise growers
to plant potatoes this year. Neither
will we throw a wet blanket over
those growers who have planted or
who have made arrangements to
plant potatoes.
Neither you nor the names men
toned in this issue are competent
to forecast what the deal will bring
forth. r.. .s -
Who knows or can say that with
the decreased cost of seed and with
proper fertilization that this is not
a better year to gamble on growing
potatoes than it was last year.
We will not have you ask for our
opinion, but will give it neverthe-
less. We will say frankly, we do not
know. We will say, however, we
discouraged lot of growers last
year. We would not have planted
ourselves last season, but we would
not hesitate to do so now.
The few acres, more or less, in
the Kennewick district are immater-
ial to start with. Results depend
more on other districts that are
larger producers and also very much
on the capacity of the public to buy.
There are many factors that can
easily upset this write up.
Last year the South produced q
large surplus of early potatoes, pre-
sumably, on land that cotton grow
ers were paid for not raising cot
ton. Our information from the De-
partment of Agriculture shows that
this will not be repeated this year
and the paintings of early potatoes,
excepting in Florida and Texas, is
less than it was year ago.
We do not profess to see into the
future and are glad such is the
case. Neither can you nor any Of
the parties that think they can.
Also want to mention in this con-
nection that some of these parties
who are throwing wet blanket over
other potato planters are planting
heavily themselves this year.
Should we have a fair crop of
potatoes even at a moderately fair
price, we will assume that you will
feel pretty rotten about the article
written in your news column.
What the object is in printing
such stuff we would not know, but
it is anything but a fair proposition.
They do not know and neither do
you.
We have few more peeves on
file that you may hear on later from
us.
Yours truly, H. Krack, Manager,

To Encourage Appetites

If child lacks appetite or re-
fuses to eat well chosen and well
cooked meals, 1t may be due to
some other health need. He should
have plenty of sunshine and fresh
air, outdoors and in the house.
Sunbaths in the direct sunshine
or with sun-lamp may be helpful.
He should be put to bed early and
given the opportunity for at least 10
to IL hours of quiet, unbroken sleep
at night.
He should have rest in the day.
time, nap or periods of complete
relaxation. Outdoor play is essen
tial, but not in excess of the child's
strength.
Eating between meals. nervous
excitement or anxiety, too much or
too hard exercise or defects such as
decayed teeth, diseased tonsils or
adenoid growth may be causes for
lack of appetite at mealtime.
A child who, without reason, per-
Sists in not eating, is probably a
sick child and should be put to bed
until health Is restored.

Forbidden Foods

Some forbidden foods for young
children:
Even If q child under six years Of
age can digest these articles Of
food, their digestion takes longer
and is more difficult than that Of
simple food. Rich or highly flavor
ed food spoils the appetite for plain
meals and take the place OF the
parts Of the meal which are essen
tial for growth.
Meat-canned or dried beef, salt
or canned fish; duck and goose; all
pork, except crisp bacon. Meat
should be boiled or baked, not fried.
Vegetables-Au fried vegetables,
cucumbers, green corn. dried beans

Feeding the Pre-School
Child

BY the end Of the second year,
a generous mixed diet should have
been established and given in 8
meals a day. The child should
have been taught to eat what is
placed before him and to feed him
self. &
Tact, patience and intelligence
are needed to teach proper food
habits. Meals should be served at
regular hours and there should be
no feeding between these hours. No
emphasis or irritation should be
shown by the mother in regard to
what the child eats. The meal
should be an incident and not a
dramatic event in the child's day.
The child's likes and dislikes
should never be mentioned before
him. If lack of appetite prevents
him from eating d meal, nothing
should be said about it, and no food
given until the next meal. Once q
child feels his Importance and real
ICES he can upset q whole family by
taking or refusing food, the mis-
chief is done. ...
New foods should be given in
small amounts at first and gradu-
ally increased. Amounts of food
necessary for the best growth diff
fer with each child and with each
year of his life. Infants and small
children do not have strong food
tastes, but like bland foods. Food
dislikes are usually suggested to
the child, either from the struggle
over feeding or the mother arous-
ing an emotional reaction to the
food in question. or to poor feeding
habits or from bad example.
When the child is learning to
feed himself, the mother should oc-
cupy herself in some way, such as
sewing or reading, and not allow the
child to feel her insistence and an
xiety over his eating.
She should be near to make sug-
gestions and complete the meal, but
a calm, impersonal attitude must be
maintained.
Food for children should be
simple, well cooked and attractively
served. The quantity should be
nearly equally divided between the
three meals, with the heartiest meal
given at noon.
