Mayor A. N. Phillips. Jl'.. opened
the. show with a. short: address of
welcome and a few remarks outlin~
ing the object of the exhibition.
The mayor was followed by E. Y.
“’cber. president of the
Hospital. who spoke on the out-pa-
tient department of the hospital.
which will receive a. portion of the
proceeds realized by the Legion from
the exhibit. Mr. \‘Vchcr informed his
audience of the Work which was be-
ing carried on by this department of
the hospital. “There are many peo-
ple in the city who are
from illnesses for which they cannot
afford treatment. it is this class of
people who are treated at the clinic
absolutely free of charge with the
best professional service. “'e have
also a. visiting social worker who
calls on patients who receive» a first
treatment at the clinic and then re-
turn to their homes.
Iler duties are to see that the pa-
tient is receiving proper care in the
home and i0 educate the housewife
in the proper care of the patient.
"This is a. most worthy cause and
I call upon everyone present and the
people of Stamford to co-operato
with us in this undertaking." de-
clared the speaker. He also deplore'd
the fact that at the present time the
Stamford Hcapiinl was over-crowded
with patients. “\Ve have room for
86 patients and at the present time
there are 141 receiving treatment at:
the institution. There is no doubt
that we need better facilities at the
hospital and this situation we are
trying to remedy." said the president.

That Stamford's automobile show under the direction. of the

in the State Armory and voiced approval at the magnificent display

His ready ‘wit together with an in-

hit with the gathering. So much for
the entertainment of the show. I
The display of automobiles. all the
latest models giistened in the glare
of the electric lights parked on the
armory floor completely ”surrounded
by decorations left. by tile Masonic
Club since their annual ball last
week. was a wonderful sight to gaze
upon. Much praise was lavished by
the spectators on the committee of
the legion who had labored 633' and.
night for weeks in making the af—
fair 3. success.
As one entered the great drill shed
where many of? Stamford's "‘own"
had drilled in preparation for the
great conflict “Over There.” he was
thrilled with the sight that confronted
him. The automobiles were artistic-
ally arranged on the spacious floor
with aisles on each side. and in the?
center. to allow the auto enthusiasts
inspect the exhibits. From re-
marks heard there are many Stam-
ford people in the market for new
machines this season.
Outstdnding Displays
While every display was charac-
terized by its completeness and excel-
lence. among those outstanding were
those of: The Hayden Motor Sales
Company. agents for the Rec car:
.tlie National Auto Supply Compdny:
the H. S. Helander Company, and the
Tooker Sales Company.
The show will be continued this
evening and will run until Saturday-
night. It. is hoped» that many people
in the city will take advantage of the:
exhibition. undoubtedly the best. of
its kind ever held in Stamford.
