Tells How Family of
8 Live On $32 A Week
.The presentation of a model bud-
get. to cover the expenditures of a
family of eight persons depending
upon a weekly income of 832.50, by
Miss Marie Nelson; supervisor of the
Home Economics department or the
New' Haven Visiting Nurse associa-
tion, was one of the interesting de- .
velopmapts of the round table con-
ference of social workers in
Stratfleld hotel. Bridgeport, Monday
afternoon.
The hypothetical family visualized
by Miss Nelson consisted of the hus-
band and wife and six children.

years of age. The food allowance
consumes almost one half of the
weekly income, $16.26 being up-
portioned for the purpose. divided

$2.52; boy, 11 to 12 years of age.
$3.08; girl, 11 to 17 years of age.
$2.59: boy. seven to eleven years of
age $1.96; girl. seven to eleven
years of age. $1.82: chlld_ four to
seven years of age, $1.54; child, one
to four years of age. $1.33.
This program calls of an expen-
diture of $18.06, but it is estimated
that a ten per cent. saving will be
effected, bringing the total to $16.26.

six heads: Milk, 83.15; bread and
cereals, 83.50; fat, $1.50; moat. fllsh
