Fairfield Social League Promotes Workers Rights Plan
The Fairfield Consumers' League, active in town life, advocates better hours and pay for women workers in garment making and retail stores. At its annual meeting at Mrs. William B. Glover's home, officers saw Bessie Betts replace secretary Bessie Child while auditor William A. Wheatley was dropped after moving to Middletown. Notable members include F. H. Brown, Rev. F. S. Child, and many Glover, Hinckley, and Wakeman families. A separate incident near Edgecombe Terrace involved a 30 year old man breaking windows and furniture after heavy drinking, bound by ropes during a hostile episode. A marriage license was issued to Edward P. Morehouse and Miss Luella Wade for a home wedding. The town plans to light 50 gas lamps pending selectmen approval. The 8th grade Congregational Sunday school studies modern heroes and heroines, and Miss Iva King hosted Miss Ruth Bristol.
