A table has been reserved by the actinf librarian, Miss Cash, on which are placed as fast as known, all books wished for an dneeded in the school work. A convience much appreciated by the Academy students as was shown Monday afternoon when more than twenty gathered to study the | several subjects given them for class} work, The children are also well cared for. A large table has been placed | under two electric lights and suitable books are kept there for their use. Fwo sterescopes with boxes of pictures are on a smaller stand.

Tilly and E. M. Pierson, now have defeats recorded against them. Harwood was the last to suc- cumb, but was recently beaten in a tournament game by Pendleton. The latter is in the 80 class and ran out his score when Harwood had amassed only 73 of the 120 he needed to win. Friswell, Bailey and Pendleton are yet undefeated.

Four children have blessed their un- ion, Robert Holmes of Providence, Charles, Avery and Gladys of this city. Mrs. Smith, the hostess, was married on the same evening 26 years ago. Realism of the Portrayal by Chapin Recognized by Y. M. C, A. Audience. Benjamin Chapin, in the character of braham Lincoln, thrilled an sudience hich packed the auditorfum of the! Young Men's Christien association to its limit Tuesday evening. The stage, was appropriately decked for the oc- caslon with American.fiags ir a pleas- ing manner. The monologue was in four acts, depicting four periods in the iife of Abraham Lincoln, The speak er was Introdueced by General Willlam A, Aiken, who referred to severa] oc- | casions upon which he had met the sreat_president, i In his appearanee Mr, Chapin exhib- | ited all the peculiarities and marks of distinction which we are taught were Lineoln’s, The audience saw the same lanky, awkward, hemely, ill ~dressed westener who ruled the affairs of the ' countr: the days of the civil war. | The sense of humor, the kindly spirit | and the devotion and resolution in car- rying out the business of his office | which are attributed te Lincoln, Mr. | Chapin depicted in a most realistic | manner, almost leading one te forget . that it was mot the real Limcoin, At | the close of each appearance Mr, Cha- | pin was given an euthusiastic burst of | applause. h Hall Whist, The winners at the whist in Parish haill, Norwich Town, Tuesday night, were: Ladies—First, Miss Mary Dunn, Dox of mote paper; second, Miss Juila O’Connell, 2 glass pitcher; third, Mary Miss George B.

There is one paper company which was much pleased with a Thamesville site, but it has not been heard fr-— in scme time. Chalrman King read the circular published in The Bulletin Tuesday re- garding a big plant that wanted to move from the west. Mr. King said he had written in answer that he thought no great interest would be taken in this so ‘soon after the paign, but since then he had found out that there was much interest here in the matter in buildine and foundry lines, and Mr. King recomrended the appointment of a commiitce uf cne or two to see the brokers and learn what the company was. Mr. Kinz also reported on the mat- ' ter of the improvement of the road to Groton and said that the secretarv of the navy, through the influence of Sen- ator Brandegee, had given the matter attention and had said there was no objection to improving the road through the navy yard. '‘Transpertation Committee. For the transportation committee, Chairman John T. Young reported amon- the achievem--‘s the removal of the trolley express track to She- tucket street, enlargement of the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road freight house and securing of Boswell avenue trolley extension. The report was read by the secretary. Adve g Committee. He also read the report of the adver. tising committee, John M, Lee chair- man, that 10,000 pamphlets, Norwich an Zdeal City, have been publishea and distributed. The committee had also pamphlet. The committes had also made one issue of the Board of Trade Quarterly. The subsequent issues were taken care of by F. W. Cary as | editor and the committee recommended that the office of editor be made perma.- nent. Public Improvements. Secretary Tibblts read the report ot John D. Hall for the public improve- ments committee. He mentioned the widening of Little Water gtreet. The smoke nuisence in the rear of She- tucket street buildings along the river had been remedied temporarily, but was getting to be verv aggravating again. One reason for this is found in the great increase of freight business. The report made a suggestion that the whole of the dock might be taken for a freight yard and might possibly solve the freight congestion situation here. Civie Committee. . For the civic committee J. C. Mac- pherson reported one meeting held at which every member had been present. The report declared for uniform grano- iithic sidewalks in the most traveled streets and also spoke for new sireet signs, signboards on highways for the information of automobilists, the es- tablishing of information bureaus and other direction signs about the city. Education Committes J. B. Stanton for the committee on education reported that it held one meeting. The payment by the town of Norwich Free Academy term bills had been accomplished., The most impor- tant school matter in the year had been consolidation of all dlstricts, with a uniform course of etudy. For the Playgrounds. The plavground committee report made by J. B. Stanton and A. L. Peale was read by Secretary Tibbits, show ing the summer and winter work. The total summer playground attendance had been 13,408. City Beautiful Association. O. L. Johnson's report for the City Beautiful assoclation was read by Sec- retary Tibbits. It gave in detall the reports of the department committees. The total membership now 1is 1,544, The committees reporting were on parks and trees, streets, publicity, bill- boards, schools, They detailed much work effectively done during the vear, with & convictien that the City Beau- titul awsoclation had accemplished much, It Is the purpose of the com- mittee to rouse a civic pride that shall make nus truly te deserve the name of the Rese of New England, Health and 8anitatien. Dr. P. §. Cassidy for the heaith and sanitation eeramitiee reperted that one | of the most important influences tow- ! ards impreved hygienic conditions was the opening of the tuberculosis sana- toriuf, the use of oil on the roads, thus cutting down the dust, and the estab- lishment of depots where antitoxins could be obtained free. The committee spoke for flushing instead of dry clean- ing of the brick pavements, better pro. | tection of food exposed for sale, medi- | cal inspection of public schools and in- spection of lodging houses. Treasurer’s Annuai Report. Preasurer C. Leslie Hopkins made his annual re ., in which he showed a working balance at the beginning of the year of §1,987.52, with receipts that included §1,393 for dues and $429 from banquet as wut itemis.

Fifteen new names had been added during the year. Statistics Report Held Over. The report of C. H. Haskell for the committee on statistics was on hand, but was laid over to the next meeting that Mr. Haskell might be present (0| read it. For Joseph T. Fanning, Secretary Tibbits made report of progress in the | matter of the Sunnyside annexaticn to ! the city. Against Montville Telephone Exchange | When new business was called for, F. W, Cary brought up the proposed matter of forming a new telephone ex- | change in Montville. Te sald there were 2,500 subscribers in Norwich to ! whnom the 112 subscribers in Montville | could now talk without extra charge. If the new exchange is formed the! Montville neople will have only 111, people to whom they can talk without paying on extra five cents. Mr. Cary referred to an effort 24 years ago made | to create an exchange there which was | blocked at that time by the protest of the Norwich Board of Trade. Norwich and Norwich merchants and people are 80 much and so vitally interested in Montville that Mr. Cary thought the Board of Trade ought to be awalke to what the change would mean as a dis- ! advantage to Norwich. He read = let- ter from Commercial Manager Knight. District Commercial Manager k. H., Gray of the S. N. B. Telephone com pany made ‘the explanation that onl 30 of the Montville subscribers could get Norwich without paying five cents. The matter was referred to the ex- ecutive committee.

President Haviland, who was con- cluding his second term as president, made his annual report, as follows: Gentlemen of the Board of Trade: It is now two years since I have been occupying the chair as your president. One year ago I was reelected to that office. Hven were I inclined io be a candidate for a third term, third term- HENRY W. TIBBITS, Secretary For Tenth Year. ers today are mnot kindly Jooked upon. How well I have filled the position, carried out your wishes, or have ben- efited the city, each of you will decide in_his own mind. Permit me to say that T have tried to have this Board of Trade do work that will bear the criticism of years, that would tend toward betterment of the whole. We could not expect to please everyone. We hear unkind re- marks made now and then about our actions or our inaction. These eman- ate generally from someone who was never known to do or to urge a publis benefit.| They never originate an idea, | but are free to stand on a street cor- ner or in some club and ecriticise the actg of others who are at least trying to benefit the public at large, It would be much better for them to bring their bright minds into the Board of Trade rooms and there make their suggestions. We need them. Water Problem Selved. All fear of another water famine has passed, For over ten years we have vacillated frem plan fo plan, as te how best to increase our supply of wa- ter, The greatest hindranee we had in settling upen seme definite plan was polities, but there are times when even that curse te business has to give way before the will of the people. Stony Brook reservoir is built and will give us more water than Fairview, moers than doubling eur water supply. All honer to our local civil engineers, Chandler & Palmer; it was built in- side their estimate. Thermes and Mackay, The second large event that has transpired the past two years was the raising in 13 days of $78,484.85 for the Thermos building. Nothing ever advertised pur_city like this act of our citizens, North, south, east and west was proclaimed that Norwich, Conn., is a live eity By this act we have secured a plant costing $120,600, and a_manufactory that intends to em- plo{ 500 workmen, whose weekiy wage will average more’ than $10 each. They expect to make 5,000 bottles a day and on every bottle will be printed “Man- ufactured im Norwich, Conn.” This advertisement alone is worth a great deal of money, The Mackay Copper Process company plant. locateq adjoining the Thermos plaul, is asother valuable addition.

The widening of Little Water street adds much to the value of our whole- sale district and s a lasting mark of the good work of our association. A “pill already drafted to be pre- sented to the next session of our leg- iglaturo, asking that Bunnyside and Norwich Town be added to our city, is attracting attentlon and we hope that the same will be passed, These two sections separated from us by only imaginary lines, nefding and us- ing our fire depariment, police and water, being lighted at the expense of the town, of which the city of Nor wich pays about 80 per cent.

Norwich hae turned the corner and is now a competitor bidding for bus- iness interests to locate here. We no longer shun the dinner pail and over- alls. We ourselves are carrying the one and wearing the other. We have cheaper transportation, cheaper electric power and better sites | for manufacturing purposes than any other city in New England, and we know and can prove it; otheis are finding it out. The time is not far | distant when some may complain of | the factory emoke. I believe that there is a living profit | figuring only the difference in cost of | freight transportation and power be- tween a factory located on the Th river and one ten miles in the terior.
