CIVIC' MUSIC ASSOCIATION IS FORMALLY INAUGURATED Executive Committee Ap- pointed With Arthur G. Kimball Probable Choice for Chairman. A decisive step forward was taken i esterday in the formation of a! Civie Music association, when at & meeting at the Burritt hotel of rep- | resentatives from luncheon and other clubs it was unanimously voted to form such an association; that an executive committee be appointed, a survey be made, a budget prepared, and other plans determined to bring | about the desired end. The executive committee was ap- | rointed at once, consisting of the same personnel as that which drafted | the previous plan, namely, Theron ' W. Hart, Arthur G. Kimball, W, C. | French, Leland Plerce and Geor, Hahn. The committee was empo ered to add to its membership as de- sired and will elect its chairman at a meeting to be held within a few days. The chairman probably wiil be Mr. Kimball. Mr. Hart, & com- mittes chairman heretofore, stated he did not consider himeelf able to conduct such an important under- taking. A meeting of the club representa- tives and the executive committee was called to take place at the Bur- ritt at noon next Friday, at which time further important steps will be taken. It was reported that the luncheon and other clubs of the city are favor- ably disposed toward the innovation and would do all that can reason- ! ably be expected to further it. The. women's organizations were also re- vorted as giving unstinted favor. Upon the matter of guarantees, the | scntiment, as handed over by repre-, sentatives of the luncheon clubs, was | that there be no attempt made to bind them to furnish a stipulated number, but it was pointed out there | was a potential number of guaran- tors in the luncheon clubs who would be ready to back up the idea in this manner as individuals. Letters were read from three cit- ies to which Ralph Benson, secre- tary of the Chamber of Commerce, had written regarding the workings of civic music associations. Replies; from a dozen other cities were an-| ticipated. All the replies read at/ the meeting yesterday were favor- able, several being of some length. | One letter, from Mansfleld, O., where conditions similar to those existing| in New Britain appear to prevail, | was particularly {lluminating. | The question of whether dramatic and lecturing attractions should be| included in the focus of the associ-| tion’s plans for the first year was debated at some length and brought forth disclaimers. It was pointed out that there was a considerable | divergency of view as to what con- constituted attractions of this type capable of interesting people devot- ed to this species of entertainment. The prevailing opinion at the meet- ing seemed to be that it is best to concentrate upon musical affairs, at| least the first year, and after that job has been well done to expand| later. This is a point, however,| sull to be definitely settled by the committes appointed yesterday, pers haps in conjunction with the group | of civic club representatives to tore-’ gather next Friday. W. C. French, who made the original suggestion that dramatics and oratory be l1ook- ed after by the association, is a member of the committee to help straighten out this angle of the ac- tivities. The Choral soclety continues to| be included in the ministrations of | the association so far as it has pro- gressed. The prevailing opinion as voiced by delegates present was that the Choral society is a definite part of the city's cultural activities and | has earned in full measure the un- stinted support of the other clubs active In forwarding the assoclation movement. | The outlook was considered | bright for the adding of a goodly | Iist of guarantors to the association, many men in the city having been heard from, directly and indirectly, that they are in sympathy with the {dea. It was stressed that in every city where the cultural life of the community was looked after, it became the duty of men and women of means to assist in forming a fund with which to operate. The Musical club and the Choral society in this city both have had such| guarantors, and these, it was deem- | ed certain, would readily affiliate | with the Civic Music assoclation in a similar capacity, and that many others could be added to bring about an enlarged program of events in the city. The main result of yesterday's meeting was that the movement to form a Civic Music association has| definitely crystallized into a working organization having the backing of the clvic clubs-and that only the de- tails remain to be worked out by the committes and representatives of the organizations supporting the idea. Allege Fraud in Suit Transfer of Real Estate Seeking to satisfy a judgment and claiming that transfers of interests were made from one defendant to the other, with the intent of hin- dering and defrauding creditors, suit for $1,100 damages has been brought by Louls Croll, through Ed- ward A. Mag, against Sebastian and Josephine Clancl. The writ is return- able in the city court the fifth Mon- day of May and Deputy Sheritt Martin H. Horwitz served the papers. The plaintiff claims that on April 25 last he reccived a judgment in the city court against Sebastfan and Bantl Ciancl for $890.26 damages and $20.81 costa. The judgment has not been satistied, he claims, He further sets forth that the de- fendant, Josephine, {3 the wife of Sebastian and the lattér, while in- solvent, at various times transferred | to her various interests in real es. ! tate, with the intent of hindering and defrauding his creditors. The plaintiff seeks to have various inter- sth cleared up and he alzo claims | damag | | | young: wirs tooted thelr horn at him SHALL TOWN CLERK MUST BE BIG HAN Berlin Resideats Say Arthur L. Woodraf Fils the Bill A city clerk in a large communi- | ty must necessarily be a capablg | person. But the job of town clerk in a small town such as Berlin is one which entails all the virtues and cannot harbor one of the vices to which most normal persons are ad- dicted. He must be a superman. A visit to the town clerk's office of Berlin where sits Town Clerk Ar- thur L. Woodruff as he has sat for many years, enlightens the visitor on some of the trying duties of a small town officlal and in particular those of a town clerk in a communi- ty the size of New Britain's little | mother. Unalded except for an- occaslonal | typist who helps with the routine part of his variety of daily business, Mr. Woodruft signs and fills out all manner of forms, gives advice to inquiring residents, listens to tirades against things with which he has in slightest connection, sympathizes with persons who are in nced of sympathy, congratulates thosc blushing couples who come in for marriage licenses, pats proud papas on the back and generally sults his mood a hundred times a day to fit the case before him. | From dog licenses to marriage | licenses, from musty old deeds to the birth certificate of some newly | arrived Berlinite, Mr. _Woodruffe rushes through his day tBuching all the phases of life with an adaptablili- ty of manner which has earned him | the friendship of all the people of the community. Several curlous cases have come before him since his inauguration in the position some ten years ago. At/ one time a young couple came from Meriden to procure a marriage license, packed and ready for their wedding motor trip which was to be- gin immediately after the ceremony. | Sadly the town clerk told them about the rule which makes it a | necessity for out of town residents | to wait four days before a license is | given them. Shaken but still daunt- less, the young folks returned to | their home and were married in that | town, a setback which did not in | the least reduce their happiness, ac- cording to the town clerk’s story. On thelr way north again on their in- | te ~d trip, the newly married | as he sat in the window and gayly waved their home town certificate | at him as they sped along the road. | Aside from the executlve dutles| of the town clerk there are many dnties which would try the temper | of a less capable man than the in- cumbent. In the winter with the, mercury hovering close to the zero mark, he arrives early in the morn- | ing, builds a fire to warm the old and barn-like structure, shovels the snow off the front steps and walk ! | and s ready to do business as the opening hour of 9 o'clock. On Tuesday evening, the time for the regular weekly session of the Berlin town court, he keeps the fires going in order that justice might not be tempered with chilli- | ness in the sesston which convenes | at 8 o'clock . | With work piling up, kindlings to | be chopped for the small stove | which heats the office, members of the town's various board requesting Information on certain subjects, | townspeople crowding the office with requests, complaints and idle chatter Mr. Woodruft Has seldom been known to lose his even temper no matfer how useless and how in- sistent the arguments which deter him from his waiting work might be. Allke to republican or democrat, | Mr. Woodruft holds the respect of everyone with whom he has deal- ings. The same in misfortune and under the smile of the “fickle gypsy” he has won the admiration of those who have envied his faithfulness to | his own ideals. To top the long column of his dutles, Mr. Woodruft is the recipient | of most of the fire alarms which come to New Britain from the southern neighbor, the restrictions | being that one town officlal must | vouch for the summoning orm«,} local apparatus. In case of fire as! in other instances, the name most | famillar to Berlinites is “Mr. Wood- | dufr.” Winchell Smith Play On South Church Screen | One_ ot Winchell Smith's stase | plays, “Thank You,” is to be shown | on the silver screen at the South| church, Sunday evening. The scenes | are laid in “Dedham, Conn.” | The Rev. David Lee, a pastor of a small New England village, is the central figure of the picture. His salary is so pitifully small that his parishioners dole out left over food and supplies to enable him to eke out an existence. The parishioners believe it bet-| ter economy to save on the par-| son’s salary and give him the oddsk and ends from their tables. It is| irksome to one of Pastor Lee's spirit and self-respect, but his Christlanity is stronger than their miserliness, and he refuses to be ! driven out. | The role of the Rev. David Lee is portrayed by Alec B. Francls, The other principal parts are played by George O'Brien and Jacqueline Lo- gan, while in the supporting cast are such stellar names as George Faw- cett, J. Farrell MacDonald, James Nelll, Marion Harlan, Vivian O den, Edith Bostwick, Frankie Bailey and William Courtright. m Special Notice Don’'t) miss the May Festival and Supper given by St. Mary's Sodality, May 24th, from 6 to 8, at St. Mary's school hall.
