Editor. The Evening Sentinel:
We ask you to publish in your
columns the i‘ llowing expression of
our appreciation to those who co-
operated with us in making s. suc-
cess of the Kiwanis
held last Friday evening in the Not--
walk Armory.
To successfully conduct such s.
track meet involves close attention
to an almost unbelievable large
number of details. The Norwallt
day‘s games Were so successful only
because or the splendid co-operation
our organization received from all
whom we asked to assist n
We owe our thanks to
Lockbart ot . the local
Guard Unit for his courtesy in el-
lowing us to rent the Armory and
for his personal interest in the
success of our meet.
Our heariiest thanks are given to
our Fellow Kiwanian. John Lund.
superintendent of schools. and
the principals. teachers and super-
Visors under him for the wonder~
i‘ul interest and co-operatlon, shown
by them. The zeal of the faculty
members in arousing the interests
oi their pupils in track athletics and
organizing the various competitive
teams was unquestionably the ‘de-
ciding factor in making the track
meet thousuccess it was.
We are grateful to the Not-walk
Boy Scouts for their assistance in
keeping order. and to Mr. Charles
Lindoburg for his senices as an-
uounccr.
Thanks are also due to Mr. David
Horton oi the De Motto school
faculty. who ran such a, splendid
race against Johnny Holden of the
New York Athletic Club.
The Kiwanis Club thanks the gem
oral public for its support. The meet
was a. success financially. but the
extent of the success is not known
because there are still some returns
to be made. The proceeds will be de-
voted by the Kiwanis Club to fur-
ther its program of encouraging
s
Capisin
and also to finance some of the un-
der-privileged child work that is a
regular ’Klwanis activity.
Very Sincelely Yours,

How to Keep Well

Surgeon General. United States Public Health Service
LITTLE TIPS 0N CARE ‘
OF THE BABY
it is dimcull to formulate fixed
rules for the care or intents. How-
ever. I wish to stress a few of the
important measures that should be
carried out to avoid flaking the
baby's life until the most critical
period has been solely passed
in the hope that these suggestigs
may prove beneficial to mothers.
First of all, breast-feeding is most
important and should be continued
for the greater part or the first year
it possible.
If the baby cannot be nursed by,
the mother. modified cow’s milk is
the best substitute.
Keep the baby cool and clean dur.
ing hot weather. especially by prepvr
cloihing and frequent bathing in
tepid water.
Give plenty oi cooled. boiled wa-
ter.
Keep the tiles away from the bulls‘,
its milk. its nursing bottles, its nip.
plot and all utensils used in the
preparation of its food.
Never consider any intestinal dis-
turbance as unimportant or only
"summer complaint." ult your
doctor nt’lhe first sign or i nets.
Leo E Welsleder. clerk or the
Court of Probate, District of Meri-,
den having heard from Harold M.
Fiske, general secretary of the Mori-
den "Y." that there is soon to be a
“1"” building in Norwaik, writes to
people here through the editor of
The Evening Sentinel and urges
them to hustle to make the project
an accomplishment. His letter tol-
lows:
“When I became a member of the
Morlden Y M.(.. ..A in 1914 the As-
sociation was in a building which was
very poorly equipped for ‘Y' pure
poses. I am listing herewith a short
list of the necessities for a new
building as! found them in ion.
“inadequate social rooms: 9“
“No educational classes:
"Small membership with very low
active members;
“Gymnasium three nights up from
the street:
"Very small gym with old and
antique equipment;
"Three small showerbaths and a
smaller hot water boiler:
“Young men and boys were drift-
ing into places which did not have
the clean and wholesome fellowship
which pervades in the present Meri-
dcn 1'. M. C. A. building;
“lileager attendance at religious
classes and discussions:
“No dormitories:
"There was very little interest
than in anything connected with
the Y. M. c. A. and in rut if the
electric sign had not been out in
front of the building I believe a great
many people would never have
known there was an ocistion in
this city.
“The present building has been in
operation for about four years and
above listed disadvantages have been
remedied and a great many advan-
tages sided. The Meriden Y. M. C.
A. is the meeting place of most of
our young men and boys. The build-
ing is a bee-hive for industrious men
and boys. The membership of the
annotation is new about 1.500 and
everyone at its members take a great
interest in all its undertakings. Ed.

well attended. The gymnasium is in
demand a all hours or the day. Ll

that a better reeling has been created
ihloughout the stats among the Y.

and everyone is interested in the do~
ings of each others association.
" in this short way i lln\e tried to
give you my personal viewpoint as to
what change has been wrought in
the Moriden ‘l” through its new
building. The Meriden 'Y‘ means to
Moriden and to myself all that a
Young Men's Christian ‘ Association
should mean to a community of this
size. As to the tutors I can see
nothing but a continuance ot the
present spirit and a continued growth
of the association.

that in the near future I shall have
an invitation to journey to south
