Norwich Commercial Travelers Are to Make a Showing. The road men for the wholesale Erocery houses of the city are on their mettle this week to make a Showing in what is called in the trade “canned £00ds week.” and every man is out to make his sales of canned goods show what he can do as a producer of business. Some figures from the federal cen- Sus report of 1909 indicate that the canning of food is one of the great rational industries. The report places a value of over 50 million dollars upon the canned vegetable output of Ameri- | can packers and a total value of over £0 millions on the annual product of Yegetables, fruits, canned fish and oysters.

With cigars reached, President Mac- | pherson soon took up the toastmaster's task in a capable manner, thanking first the committee for its part in the success of the banquet, the hotel for the excellent service, the florist for the decorations, and speaking of the priv- ilege it was to havé such a distinguish- ed llst of speakers.

They cffer nothing to their mem- bers as individuals except the chance to strive for the general good by help- ing to safeguard and develop the in- terests of their city and adjacent ter- ritory. It is therefore well for us, gen- tlemen, to remember that none of these i associations reach their highest de- velopment or their greatest effoctive- neas unless the members stand shoul- der to shoulder for civic and indus- tial progress. Growing Bigger and Better. Need I remind you that some of our fellow citizens who can always tell you how things should be, have taken keen deiight _in crucifying this Board of Trade for its lack of achievement as they viewed it, but here we are sur- viving this censure and growing bigger ‘and Detier and more influential for everything that pertains to our muni- cipal advancement than ever in our history ani I dare say to You tonight that no other organization in our city's career has had so much of real ac- complishment to its credit as this Board of Trade. As I stand here, gentlemen, 1 could close my eves and cail to vivia mem- ory Norwich as I first knew it, with its unpretentious post office on the hill, its Main streefs and Franklin square without vitrified brick and in a_much less clean condition than at present, no rail connection on the east side of the river, instead complete dependence on the Central Vermont road for all connections southward, a smail and unattractive rallway station at Ferry strect, no Broadway theater and no Central fire station and much less at- tractive banking and business struc- tures along our Main sireets. Tsen |do 1 open them and begin to realize | that we have made much progress and have many things to be thankful for. It was Longfellow who =aid: “Look not idly at the past, it comes not back Wisely improve the present, thine, go forth into the shadowy future without fear and with a manly heart.” Shall we hesitate to gu for- ward into the future at the time when everyone has been saying that Nor- wich was going ahead. | In my cfforts to find something of interest to say to you tonight the | thought kept insistently coming to me that things were rapidly changing, in Norwich, but courage is always an es- sential of business life and while we | all know the condition of some of our | local industries and the condition of the railway systems of New England, and that a revision of the tariff is pending always a nightmare to bus | ness, let us exercise our better judg- | ment and realize that we must g0 for ward, not backward: we must continue to do business and not weaken. Much to Encourage. With the remarkable improvement shown here during the past five years more than in any previous ten to my mind, we have much to encourage us and very little to tempt us to vield to the temptation of our besetting sin, pessimism and skepticism. | T shall not attempt to give you a lot | of statistics to prove that progress | for T know you are here to listen to | other speakers and I will not tire you, | but while we are about to entertain an Institute of State Dairymen is it not a good time for the Board or Trade | in_the midst of this food producing farming country to consider establish- ing a department of rural affairs that 1 encourage a greater intensifying of crop culture fn this community? ot larger farms, but more farms and |the Kind that will supply Norwich | markets. Let us continue io strive for better city and state highways and better sidewalke. We must cooperate to sustain and encourage our local in- | dustries. Let us continue to send forth the invitation to manufacturers to es- tablish within this territory and reap pitalists to join in the development of Norwich industries to skilled and unskilled workmen to fill the posi- tions in these industries. Let i strive to secure better railway connections particularly a through service betweén Boston and New York and in addition to th exert a proportionate offort to help in the development of the water front and harbors of New London county of eastern Connecticut, the state of Connecticut and of New Eng- land. Most of us have had it borne in upon our lives that the Grand Arch- itect of the Universe in His_infinite wisdom planneq these New England States with their hills and their val- densely populated sections of these United States with freedom from ex- tremes of weather, but he has also left ith us the sacred duty to stretch forth a helping hang to such portions of our great country as suffer dire dis aster, and I am sure it is \oncing the sentiment of thie Norwich Board of Trade to say that our hearts filled to overflowing with sympathy for the suffering and afflicted peoples of the flood district in the middle west. Introduced Mayor Murphy. Presideni Macpherson concluded by introducing Mayor Murphy. who Shoulg throw open the guests the gates of the finest in New Eng- land Mayor applause as to city Murphy was given rousing he responded as follows I wish to extend a hearty welcome to our city 1o the honorable gentle- men we have as our guesis (unight I take this opportunity to expr vou my thanks for the assistance arc giving me a& mavor of vour particularly to vour vArious com- mitfees who are working to bring more nanufacturing industries here. Sidewalk Improvement. Never hefore has there heen sc many improvements asked for in all parts of the city as at the present time. for | improved streets and sidewalks. The | sidewalks. especially, are in a deplor {able condition: this is something that this assoclation and the citizens in | general shouid take up and discuss at lour next city meeting. Upon inves tigation I find that the city has lost in litigation and paving damages a !large sum of money, caused by defec- tive sidewalks. It is about time that every property owner interested him- self in having his sidewalk in a | proper condition for pedestrians and thus avoid a large loss to the city. ‘We can well afford to take a lesson [from our sister city of New London iin the manner in which they have taken the management and control of | the sidewalks, laid and made them | uniform all over the city to the great advantage of appearance as well as the practical use and safety of the pedes- | trians. I would suggest {hat this matter of better sidéwalks be a subject of dis- cussion at some meeting of the Board of Trade at some time before the next city meeting. To my mind this Is a very important matter and one in which every msn, woman aud child is interested. 1 do not wish It to be un- derstood fhat I want (o burden the property owhers with exira expense ch @5 campelling (hén (o put in granolithic walk: Aboul elght years ago B movement for better walks was started which resulted In the property owners repuiring their walks, aca from you elght to ten miles of sidewalks were repaired, either from pride by the property owners themselves or by compulsion from the city government.
