Reports were given by the various offi- cers showing that the society is In a sound condition. A. Buol was again elected president of the society and the other officers were also re-elected. There was some little discussion dur- ing evening in regard to the society taking over the entire relief work. The menibers have been acting the past few years only in order that the work of disposing of the seals might be' cars ried on and they had no intentions of taking over all the duties as the:city had already promised to take over the work if it were a success.

Bodley was elected. The enlarging of the society's work was taken up at soma length by Dr, T. M. Reeks, superintendent of the health department. Dr. Reeks brought about the question when he inquired if it were possible to have the man- aging board membership increased in order that larger collections of money for the work might be made.

At the present time there are three members of the health department doing tuberculosis work. The tuber- culosls work will have to be done by the society if the work is separated from the work of the health depart- ment. Both President Buol and Secretary King sald that they understood, when the society was started in 1908, that the city would take over the work after it had been shown practicable. They considered that the society members did not have the desire to take over all of the work. Dr. Reeks said that the various health departments would need more money but that he did not expect to ask for more for the tuberculosis re- lef work. With private individuals handling the work the other depart- ments of the health board could be developed much more and still the tuberculosis work would not be neg- lected. Mr. RBuol said that Miss Carroll had talked to him about having more women on the managing board and he though if the soclety were made up complctely of women it would do much better. To increase the num- bter of hoard members it was found that the by-laws would also have to be changed but before doing this the proposed change wonld have to be advertised in the newspapers. George P. Spear proposed a ‘resolution which was adopted by the members. Miss Carroll told the members that the fiscal year for the city ended on March 31 while that of the society ended in January which made a little confusion with the reports. It was decided to change the meeting time unt{l April and another resolu- tion was proposed by Mr. Spear. The joint resolutions follow: be changed and number of managers increased at a meeting to be held at the call of the president after sald meeting has been advertised and that a vote be taken on such an amend- ment. Also that article 4 section 2 be changed to read that annual meet- ing for the clection of officers be held in April LODGE WILL CELEBRATE. New Britain City Lodge is Now Twen- ty-six Years Old.
