Members of the Chamber of Com- merce who avalled themselves of the cpportunity presented by the civic bureau, last evening in the appearance of B. J. Lathrop of New York city, one of the most brilliant speakers on the tubject of city planring, were well paid for their attendance. It is to be regretted that so few grasped the op- portunity., Several members of the common council were in attendance and from the information .they ob- tained they should be in a position to offer valuable suggestions to the re- cently appointed city plan commission, The meeting was called shortly after £ o’clock by Chairman S. H. Holmes of ‘the bureau. The minutes of the previous meeting were read by, Secre- tary Andrews. Two changes were made in the by-laws caliing for meet- ings of the committee to be arranged Ly the chairman at his desire, also for the calling of a special meeting after tcn members of the chamber has re- quested one, Work. 4 Chairman Holmes expressed his re- gret that the meeting was so poorly attended. He outlined a number of the matters that have been under- taken by the civic. bureeau since its formation. The first was the tubercu- Icsis work, whereby -the relief work has been placed on a becier basis and 1he city has provided money for fight- ing the ‘‘White Plague.”” One of the matters that has been closeiy followed by the bureau has beén legislation. He said that the committee has bgen alive to matters at the tapitol during the last session' of the lawmakers. Particular attention had been’ paid 'to Chairman Holmes 'Reviews Bureau’s |. Lamp Announcement On and after July 1st, this Company will sell to its cus- tomers the new 100 Watt Nitrogen Mazda will take the place of the 100 Watt Vacuum Mazda Lamp. The Nitrogen Lamp is the last word in the manufacture of incandescent lamps. The efficiency of the 100 Watt Nitrogen Mazda is 16 per cent. greater than the 100 Watt Vacuum Mazda, giving you 20 candle power more light with no additional cost of operation. The life of this lamp is about 1000 hours, thus giving you 20,000 additional candle power hours over the Vacuum Mazda. The Price of these Lamps is 50¢ each. Lamp, which Come in and see them and be convinced. . the hame rule and the charter revision |. acts. The bill that proposed to charge the parents of High school 'stodents for their tuition fee was killed tlirough good_work by the committee. “It’s dead and let's hope it stays that way,” said the speaker. Street railway ex- tensions is another object the commit- tee is working for. zealously, the speaker said. ‘‘While tne Chamber of Commerce does not take all’ the credit for the proposed extension of the north end trolley 'line, still ' it worked hard on the project and hopes 1o see it completed before next fall,”” sald Mr. Holmes, He spoke of the manner in'which charities were being handled at the present’ time and the nnvestigation of soliciting about the city, which, he said, he knew was ac- complishing considerable good. Juve- rile work is one that tne committee is: ‘much interested in, said the epeaker. $ !} “The greatestiassets to New Britain are its hoys and girls and not its fac- tories or its buildings,” the speaker said. ‘He also spoke of the new American idea which is being worked out by the committee, in which the poor, ignorant foreigner ' will be ‘shown the hespitality of the American people by the outstretched hand to help him along. The committee con+ cucted a successful clean-up’ cam- pdign last spring and weas ‘insttumen- tal in having a fence built at the ‘depot, which shut off the view of an unsightly dump. i The committee has also taken over the public Christmas trec celebration, which has proved to be such a success ihe past two years. It is also interest- €l in the occupational ‘survey of the city, the historical soctety of research and the distribution of ashes and the manner in which dumps about the city | are . conducted. ¢ Superintendent “Holmes urged that the 1dea of heolding a public affair from time to time similar ta that of the Burritt day several years ago be encouraged. He sald he was cer- tain that all who took: part in that | memorable affair had no regrets for so doing. He thought the study of city gov- ernment ought to be taken up by the committee, and comparisons be made with other cities of the manner in which they are conducted. “There is no criticism to be offered, however, about the manner in which New Brit- ain as conducted, as there is no evi- dences of corruption here, and there is very little to criticise,” but the best is none too good for New Britain. It ig cities like this that are the hardest to study city government,” said Chair- man Holmes. Twelve . Years Studying Planning. Mr. Lathrop was greeted warmly after his introduction to the ‘‘au- il dience.” He said that he was en- gaged in the newspaper and magazine business prior to taking up the study _of *city planining,” in which he has | completed twelve years of service and i has traveled thraughout the country making observations and studies on the subject.. He said he believed | there is no such a thing as private busihess, even to collecting garbage at fifty cents a house, for if you are so engaged, “you are doing a splen- did business and God Bless You.” He sald the example set by a city has much to do with the growth of its boys and girls. ‘When no atten- tion is paid to such as ash bins, gar- bage cans and the like then the chil- dren manifest the interest in the city that they would not under other con- : d digestive fluids, and strengthen bnerves that control the delicate proy es of digestion. ter you begin taking Dr. Williams” ic Pills the first sign of returning is usually an increased appetite. you find that what you eat: causes and if you exercise a reason- t of care in the selection of you will' have no more trouble, ist sells’ Dr. Williams’ iet, book called “What ditions, Stanley Street an Object Lesson. Speaking from a local standpoint Mr. Lathrop said he visited North Stanley street during the afternoon and spoke of the recently laid cement road and improvements. He said: I noticed that the cars stap at Fran- cis street, which is” in a fast grow- ing seetion of the city, and further down there is a beautiful plot of ground to be utilized as a park. Then ‘| why PBefore placing this concrete road did mnot the. citizens have the fore. :Ichwo jay ~tracks there and save 1 ¥ the necessity of digging up the street later, and wasting a considerable amount of money for it's bound Lo come.” ' This furnished the foundation tor'! his talk on city planning, because ¢on- ditions are just as he pictured and | are what the residents of the city have seen on too numerous occasions where they build a concrete road and then dig it up because some one wants to install a sewer connection in his house. Mr. Lathrop spoke of similar gonditions . that’ he found in, Rich- mond, Va., where a bridge was built, at an enormous expense which will have to be replaced soon by another one on account of the neglect of those in charge of the city to carry out ideas along city planning lines which would have eliminated this conditions of affairs. g “From the 'Atlantic .to the Pacific, conditions are 'about the same,” said the speaker. A/ Ta Walnut Hill park, one of the tost pleasing’ tributes ever paid ‘to that beautiful site was given by Mr. Lathrop. He iillustrated his idea of city planning when he spoke of the Stanley Works, whose massive ~con- crete building stands out pre-eminent in" the distance. He spoke of the various men in charge ofthe erection meeting from time to time and. dis- using the plans until at its completion, everything was in its place, and there was no tearing down of its walls or} ripping up of its floors to place some electric wiring, or do some other work which might have been overlooked but for the fact that the company em- ployed city plan ideas in its erection of the building. He spoke on the matter of laying out a city and gaVé ‘en ‘interesting de- scription of /difficulties in'‘large cities regarding transpértation - congestion, due té inadequate terminal plans. “Don’t shout for larger cities," —— urged the speaker. “When you have a city that is fit for 53,000 :people to live in then it is all right for 63,000 and when you have, people will flock to | your city in trains, aeroplanes and|erty in her own name. bicycles and some will walk.” Speaking on housing conditions the speaker said that he had seen people come from countries that hoasted of their beauty and flowers hut after spending a short time in the cities, they became ‘‘slobs.” The city of Berlin, Germany, has grown foar times in size.since it adopted the cd&' planning. He urged that the peaple of NeW |yesterday as they Britain co-operate in this moverent and get together with the city plan commission and discuss the subjeet. At the close of his spee¢h Chair- man Holmes called for a rising vote P. S.—We have amall stock of the 100 Watt Vac- uum Mazda Lamps in stock.

Bissell of Hartford were settled were about to be tried in the court of common pleas. Dr. King sold Dr. McNary a dental business in this city on a conditional bill of sale and claimed that Dr. Mec- Nary had not lived up to the obli- of thanks, which was extended to Mr. Lathrop. B UPHOLDS NON-SUIT. Joseph Clark Still in Possession ' of Tdvery Business. ° Judge Joseph P. Tuttle in superior court yesterday denied the petition 6f the pldintiff in the suit of E. Schultz, administrator, against Jos. eph H. Clark, to set aside a non-suit judgment, thereby permitting Clark to retain possession of the livery busi. nless transferred to him by his father, Bernarl Clark. Joseph H. Clark was executor of the will of his mother, Bridget Clark, but was removed and E. W. Schultz was appointed administrator of the estate. Mr. Schultz brought suit to compel Joseph H. to give an account- ing on a livery business which the plaintiff claimed was owned jointly by Bernard and Bridget Clark. Joseph H. contended that the business had been owned solely by his father and | had been transferred to himself. Law- | v gations. Bissell sued to recover for rent for Dr. McNary's office at 183 Main street. BIDS ON NEW SCHOOL, The town of Newington has sent out a call for bids on the addition to the Newington Center school.
