The executive board of the Connec-
ticut Woman Suffrage association will
meet next week at the summer home
of Mrs. George ll. Day at Fenwick.
The meeting will undoubtedly be ful-
ler titan is usual in the summer; for
several members of the board who are,
accustomed to go out of 'he state in
summer are staying in Connecticut to
carry out various forms of war work
that they have undertaken. All the
work done so far in co-operation with
the National and State governments
and with ‘iir. Anna Shaw’s committee
which forms the woman’s division of
the National (‘ormcil of Defence will
be reviewed, and new plans arranged.
The Suffragists are raising about ten
thousand dollars for their war work.
Of this $800 is being raised in each of
five counties for the. expenses of a
woman food demonstrator. in New
London and Middlesex counties the.
Stt'll‘ratgists are giving in eaclr$1,0thl for
a similar purpose: in New Haven
county the money is being raised for
other purposes, much of it being for
the maintenance of a suffrage farm
training sclrool-~~the liner-brook farm
mar llerhy. Money has also been lib-
erally contributed'for other purposes.
Miss Rose tRwyer, who is an ac-
knowiedgcd expert in connection with
mental troubles due to meningitis and
nerve shock. has been asked by the
government to go to France to work
among the many victims of ncrve
shock there. Before accepting the of-
fer she is making an uppeul for the
food whiclris absolutely necessary for
these poor victims if they are to have
a chance of recovery. She states that
in all cases of nerve shock and nerve
exhaustion sugar is vitally neceSsary.
