NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1926. BUSINESS OUTLOOK IN COUNTRY BRIGHT Increase in Employment of| Skilled Mechanics Forecast Hartford county's captains of in- stry accompanied by many busi- ness men, comprising a gathering of over 200, enjoyed a sheep roast at Take Compounce this afternoon. It was the annual outing of the Manu- facturers and Employers' associ- ations and was one of the most successtul held in recent years. Din- ner was served at 1 o'clock after which games of skill were partici-| pated in by the younger element. Charles B. Cook, chairman of the entertainment committee, presided over the after dinner exercises Smith's singing orchestra enlivened the feast hour with catchy music and popular songs. Thomas J. Kelley gave a brief re- port on business conditions. He sald the industrial outlook wae most en- couraging for factories indicating steady and remunerative employ- ment for the 56,000 men and wom- en employed, building was active and merchandising reflected general prosperity of industr predicted steady additions of s ed mechanics to the working forces of Hartford county plants from now on Dr. Willard Scott of made the after dinner which was a sort of literary mosiac, sparkling with epigrams and pleced together after no accepted patfern cave the speaker's own free will He was introduced by Chairman Cook as a “mental coc tapic was “Today's Trend of Ideals, He described the “settled” period 25 one in which people were emi- nently worthy, respectable and or- derly in all thelr ways, when changes were infrequent and inconsiderable, were usually deprecated as dis- quieting, if not actually alarming.

He paid a T to the m. in which the whole nation took up th challenge of war, and to the sports- anlike qualities called into play by that perilous event. He urged that our attitude now towards the pres & problems of peace be on ti ime high level of moral chivalry. Those who served on the enter- tainment committee with Chairman ook were Carlisle H.
