Norwich camp was organized in No- vember, 1900, and closes this year with a membership of 78, having made a gain of about 15 in the year, but it is looking forward to an agressive cam- paign for new blood, which is to begin after the first of the year, when Dep- uty Joseph H. Hughes of Hartford is to come here. In the staff of officers elected he will find pushers of experi- ence in Modern Woodmanship, for Mr. Preiffer has already served five terms as consul a number of years ago, and Clerk Condon, who is also a deputy, has held _the office of clerk since 1902. Deputy Mussell is also an influential member of the order who can be count- ted upon to advance the interests of | Norwich camp. PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.

FORESTERS. Court Sachem, No. 94, endorsed the administration of the past term by re-electing Irving J. Forbes as chief ranger at its regular meeting held on Thursday evening in Foresters’ hall James Ward and George Fox were tell- ers and Alexander Carberry inspector for the election, at which the offices were filled by the following list: Chief ranger.

It was voted that these should bé in- stalled at a smoker to be held-the first meeting night in January, and the fol- lowing committee was named to be in charge: Henry Clements, Cornelius Kennedy, A. G. Crowell, Fred Cartler, Joseph R. Portelance. The financial secretary was directed to secure past chief rangers’ jewels for Brothers Bray and Crowell, which are to be presented at this time. The officers of the two local courts are to be invited to the smoker. Court Sachem closes the year with $5,000 in the treasury, which is a considerable gain in assets in the past twelve menths. Court City of Norwich, ND 63, had a banner attendance for the past term at its meeting Friday evening in For- esters’ hall. The most interesting part of the meeting was the reports made by different sub-committees, and especially the standing committees, hich made their final reports for the year. When the reports of the finan- cial secretary and _treasurer were read, it was a pleasure to those mem- bers who attend meetings only oc- casionally to-learn that after the large amount of money paid out for sick benefits, medicine and death benefits, the court js still on the gain both in membership and finance. The next order of business was the election of officers for the mext term. The election was marked by the old- time rivalry and the following were elected: C. R, W. T. Mahoney; 8. C. R. Gearge Dolan; financial secretary, T. day evening in President Frank J. chair and a good attendance.

The past year has made a new record for initia- tions, thirty haying - been received, which is the best the division has ever done, and there 4] three applica: tions presented at meeting. The contest for the emblem which is to be given to the member securing the most nmew names closes with the in- stallation of officers, which is to be at the first meeting in January, so that there is still time for some of the members to make a final spurt. Edward J. Mclnerney, who has been the particularly efficient and faithful recording secretary for the past five years, declined to be considered for re-election, so that a new name had to be presented. The following was the list of officers chosen: President, Frank J. Murtha; vice president, F. J. Brennan; recording secretary, John E. Reddy; financial secretary, ~John F. McVelgh; treasurer, P. J. chairman stamding committee, J. Finnegan; sergeant at arms, N. McInnis; sentinel, William A. ples; physician, Dr. F..J, Harpe They are to be Instailed at the first meeting ‘in January.
