‘ mswss SERVICE

Meet in Country Club—
Want to Aid the Small
Communities.

 

 

Ways and means of supplying small-
er communities with social service
'wore discussed at a luncheon of tho
Fail-field Social Workers held yester-
day at the Norwalk Country club.
The luncheon was attended by 31
members of the organisations.

Speakers on the program were:
Judge Jshn Hiliu of Bridgeport.
Judge Hall of Fair-held. ., Mrs. Norma
Anderson of the Bureau of Child
Weiiare audio. If. Strayer. president
of the association. The subject of
discussion was "Protection of Child-
rec."

The matter of better serving the
smaller communities of Fairiisid
county was brought up by lira An-
dcrson and ‘ files A. C. Wendoroth.
vice president of the Fairneld Social
Woriscrs. it wn pointed out while
Norwalk. eismfoxd. matron. Bride's-
.port and the Jirger places had social
workers. _ small communities
such as Weston. Norotoa. Dal-ion. stc..
did not have this social service mept
whsrs"it was supplied by the workers
in the iii-gar cities.

It'was pontsd out that the social
workers of the larger cities and towns
were over-w'orked without handling
the affairs of‘the smaller places. It
was further, pointed out that there was
a need of a social worker whose duty
would .be to take care of the smaller
community and also to form a County
Service Euhange. it was finally vot-
ed to appoint a committee to settle
the problem. '

Extreme heat caused
peculiar happenings yesterday.

Ray Aiken. plumber. placed' a
box of safety matches on the tin
roof of a house on which he was
working. Contact with the roof
caused the matches to ignite.

Charles Ashworth. employed by
the water commissioner of the first
district. stooped to pick up a piece
of lead pipe which had been lying
in the son. He dropped it in a
hurry. The pipe was so hot that the
lead had melted. Ashworth's hand
was painfully bilatercd.
