The accident happened | near the hlacksmith shop on Boswell avenue and at the point where the trollev tracks cross from one side of | the road to the other | was riding at a moderate rate of i spced, and just as he rounded the | curve he noticed a small bos directly { in front of his machine. There was not time .to stop the motoreyele before it would strike the jad. so he swerved the machine to one side. In doing this | it struck the trolley track, which is elevated quite a little at that point, sileways, and the shock threw him { off onto the road. Picking himself up. ! the driver limped to a nearby house and medical aid was sent for. Upon examination it wi jired man was badly cut about the head. had received a sprained elbow and knee and was cut about one leg. The injuries were dressed and Mr. Combies was removed to his home. The damaze to the motorcycle could not be determined Sunday, but it will probably be slight, although the en gine received a strain as the result of the fall White Cross Council White Crosz council, K. of C., ap- proached the altar and received holy communion at St. Mary's church at| the early mass Sunday morning.

The Club Department. | The first address was by Miss Alice { Hooper, supervisor of the club de- partment, who spoke in part as fol- lows: The club department of the U | Workers was never in a more flo {ing condition than at present. |ing the vear over 450 children have been enrolled in clubs and classes. The object of the club work is to help the girls socially and industrially so that they may become better home makers; and to teach the boys the privilege and responsibilities of good citizenship. Among the 450 children registered girls predominate, for it is much easier to find leaders for girls than for boys, and this notwithstanding _that last year under the auspices of the Men ‘and Religious Forward Move- | ment several {lluminating and inspir- | ing addresses were given in the city by leading authorities on the import- ance of work among boys, addresses that conserved the reasom, stirred the heart and appealed to the soul. Men of Norwich who have the inter- ests of their city at heart can do nothing more important than to take up the task of training the young foreigner of today for the loyal citi- zen of tomorrow and there is no more fitting place to do this sort of work, than in the boys’ clubs connected with the United Workers. Earnestness of Volunteers. The remarkable fidelity of the vol- unteer workers already In cannot be too highly commended. Of the large number who at the begin- ning of the year agreed to do regular work, only three or four have fallen out of the way and the substitutes have been correspondingly faithful. we can continue to have an band of single-minded, alert, per- sistent persons, who are ready to take upon themscives any duty which it may be necessary to perform, the club department will continue to make a efinite and essential contribution to the “big task of a sound re- | ment of social condition.” Incidental- Iy it may be said that many of the workers assert that they are recei ing even more than they are giving. To the supervisor such assurances as these are most helpful and encourag- ing for she would feel that gained for from a full measure of suc- | cess, if the value of his volunteer service was confined solely to children The materials for the Sewing classes i have cost correspondingly less than City Mission’s Varied Activities Described by Rev.

Varlous phases of the activity of the ! usual { United Workers were disclosed at the service | It | earnest | djust- | she had | this seasén for in addition to that which has been donated to the clubs we have been utilizing every- thing which was left over from last vear, both from Miss Aiken’s sewing classes which have been discontinued and from ours. One of the largest bills for materials $12.44 (which means twelve hundred and forty-four fees) has been paid by the little seam- stresses from their own funds. Among other things we are trying to teach the children that to get something for nothing is not only undignified but dishonest. As far as the teaching ol cooking is concerned we have been able to do but little, for it is extreme- 1y difficult to find ladies who are will- ing to attempt to teach cooking. Many of our volunteers are becom- ing greatly interested in the boys’ and girls they meet from week to week and in several cases have ministered to the special needs of children under their charge. Instances of assistance on the part !of individuals might also be related, | particularly in cases of families who, with no financial aid from the United ‘Workers have been helped over hard ! places, and It is evident that to ail who are engaged in this service. “The inward voice Is saying, ‘Whatsoever thing thou doest To the least of mine and lowest that thou doest unto me."” Mrs. Frank ‘A. Mitchell spoke of some phases of the work of the state | beard of charities and its co-operation | with other boards and organizations. She clted interesting cases of work among children/ and spoke of the kindly assistance of public officials and of the general desire that more might be done for the county home children who had attained the age limit of the jurisdiction of the homes and were left practically without guardians at a critical age. City Mission Work. City Missionary C. spoke in part as follows: Reading between the lines, and clothing with flesh and blood the bare | skeletons of the City Mission daily and weekly office reports, discloses a varied and useful interchange of busi- ness transacted, of telephone calls, {and calls at the office by numerous persons for many purposes, as well as |calls from the office by the mission- ary and his assistant and the district nurse, in answer to diverse needs. Mr.” Northrop ran over hastily the office reports for February, filling out he abbreviated notes of the daye’ doings, and showing the kind of work | that goes on month by month at and { from the mission rooms. | To illustrate: Of the 30 occasional orders given for fuel, food and cloth- ing, 20 were for fuel for those who seldom call for it; most of the cloth- ng was to supply a committed girl and a tubercular patient. The food orders were to meet special sickness (Continued on Page Eight.) Northrep PAINTERS WERE IN CONFERENCE WITH BOSSES Latter Offer Them $16 for a 44 Hour Week. Saturday night at the Buckingham Memorial a committee from the paint- ers’ ang decorators’ union attended a meeting of the boss painters and pre- sented before the dozen bosses present the request that thte union madc some time ago for a new wage schedule to_go into effect on the first of April. The union men who had been getting 5 per day, or $16.50 for a 45 hour week, had asked for $16.50 for a 44 hour week, which would give them a Saturday half holiday. At the meeting aturday night at which H. Blackledge presided, the committee of union men | | presented their side of the case and then retired After considerable boss painters voted to offer them 016 a week for a week of 5 1-2 days, which is at the rate of nearly 36 1-2 cents an hour, where the request that the union men made was for 37 1-2 cents an hour. The committee is to present the answer of the bosses to the union. discussion, the FESTIVAL CLOSED. Father Mathew Society Had Four Successful Nights in T. A. B. Hall. The four nights' festival * of the Father Mathew T. A. society came to a successful close in St. Mary's T. A. and B. hall on Broadway, Monday evening. Dancing was the chief feature of the evening and commenced at 8.30, Inst- ing until midnight. The attendance for the evening numbered over 300 people and the different committees reported an excellent business. The committees who conducted the closing of the affair comprised County Director William H. McGuinness, Pres. ident Thomas Buckley, St. Mary’s so- clety: President Joseph Bellefleur, ‘ather Mathew's T. A. soclety; John J. Connelly, chairman of festival com- mittee Leadore J.

Ward of the Otis libraty staff resumed her duties Mon- day after a visit in Washington since before the inauguration. She was the guest of her sister, Mrs. Samuel B. | Gailex and also visited Mrs. L N. Da- vis, the latter giving a large tea in her honor during her sta; Clerk-Carrier Examination.

If we wake up in the middle of the night and reach out and cannot find a match we feel insulted. Every match is a potential conflagration, as every fire is of the same size when it starts. No match should be admitted inside a home except the variety which ignites only on the box. No father who has will al- low a “strike anywhere” match in his home, Inspection System. The mental habits of a people are a vital factor in affecting social pro- gress. It is the mental are maintained for the exclusive pur- pose of extinguishing fires. It is ob- vious, however, that fire departments have 'large possibilities for service in preventing fire: regret to sayv, vet largely potential. Every fireman, from the chief engineer down to the drivers and pive men, should be regularly detailed for in- spection service. Three or four hours a week for each man, going into base- ments, attics, courts and allevs, keep- ing down accumulations of rubbish— which spring up over night—locating the storage of inflammable ofls and explosives, would keep the city clear of its most persisient fire dungers. Every fireman should In turn cover every section in the course of six months. One would thus check up the inspections of the other, and local conditions would become a matter for conversation about head- quarters. Fire Prevention Day. The American people are not dull in comprehension nor are they slow to act once the necessities of a situation are made clear to them. The awak- ening of the present vear manifested by the observance of “Fire Prevention Day" in many of the cities of the Tnited States; by the appointment of fire marshals and the amendment of fire marshal laws and by the teach- ing of the fire hazards In many pub- lic schools, indicates that wo as a people will not much longer tolerate our pitiful impoverishment by the fire waste. It is true that so long as ou wooden cities_stand they must occa- sionally suffer dlsastrous fires with, oftentimes, shocking loss of life; but with the growing disposition (o hold thelr carelessness. before the par of public ‘opinion, many of our moSt pro- 1fic causes, of fire will disappear.

It carried the suggestions. however, that the members of the Board of Trade would be glad to hear about the tariff or other legislation in Washington. Fear not. 1 shall not indulge in the realms of prophecy, mor is this the place to make too many predictions. You will recall that last ycar there there were more ex-members of con- gress turned loose on the fourth of March than ever before in the history of the country, and they can all teil you how it happened. We have just dispensed with the services of a chief exccutive who, whatever his short- comings may have been, proved him- |self both a good fghter and a good loser. An Ambitious Programme. By no means have I forsaken my political convictions of a life time, but I do wish for the nbw administration its full measure of guccess.

Consress appropri- ates over one billion one hundred mil- lion dollars a year, and we are con- tinually devising new methods of rais- ing the revenue. After eight years of, intimate association with and close observation of public men in Washins- ton, I can say to you that you will not find anywhere the world over a more, patriotic cr high-minded set of me who want to do the right thing all of ‘the time and are not satisfied with be- ing simply honest in their service, and no political party has a monopoly of these aualities. Suggests Commission of Expert: It is the history of the country that business disturbances have usually fol- lowed tariff revision. It seems inevit- able. No one really wants or means to hurt our industries. The free soup house is mot a thing of joy. We may boast of our individual independence, but it has no existence in fact. We are all dependent upon each other, and the misfortunes of one particular busi- ness reacts upon all. 1 do not expect to see, nor is it altogther to be desir- ed that the tariff shall be taken out of politics. but I do hope and believe that a_commission of business and ec- {oromic experts with power to recom- mend to congress would go a great way towards removing some of the criticisms that are now made, and| would in large part do away with the peridocical . disturbances due to tarift | revision. Politics and Business. Politics and business are now so closely related that it 1s difficult to discuss one and ignore the other. The country has been going through an era of agitation and some recrimina- tion. Some of us thought we knew what was the marter, and all manner of remedies have been suggested and some applied. The full clinic will be in operation after April ith.

It is the| solemn duty of every good citizen to see that neither combination hurts the | other and that both work for the good | of all. T regard this as more important | than the tariff or many other absorh- |Ing " problems that we have to work | {out. Regard for New England. | _In the past New Englang has financ- ed, explolted and promoted the young- er sections of the country, but they think they are now able to walk alone, and about the only things that are handed us now are the securities of the Northwestern Lumber company, Eucalyptus, Laramie, Hans Peak and | Pacifis railroad, and a Columbus phae- | ton. It is promised that lemons will be | put on the free list. There will then be an opportunity for us all. This is | the ‘first time In the history of the { country that New Fngland has not | had a_member of the cabinet, and the | first time in about years that Con- | | necticut has not had a member of the | tariff making committee. But for ons {1 do not despair. Function of Board of Trade. I have sometimes thought that one | of the chief functions of a board of | trade was to furnish a mark when oth- | ers were missing for those whose chief aim in life seems to be to try and pull something down. Norwich 1s whatever we see fit to make It. We are not as good as some of us think we are, nor | as bad as some of our own people have advertised us to be. It seems to de- volve upon Mayor Murphy and myself | torght to furnish a little local color. For one, I am grateful that we can now all take a bath without a twinge of consclence, and that we are no long- er pointed to as a city that cannot pro- vide its own recessities. Thec ost di- rectly and_fndirectly for our long Best of Resources Here. We have resources at this end of the ! State that are not exceeded in New England. Among thém undeveloped | water powers, competing railroads and | tide water. If the money which has| been made in Norwich had found lodg- | ment here in the development of its Tesources and Industries, instead of having been sunk in get rich -quick schemes, we would be at least the third city in the state in population. 1f we were less wedded to our idols and thought and talked less of our| glorious past and the wonderful achievements of our ancestors we would have more reason to expect that ' the future will be generous with us.| A few men in a community of great inherited riches are too liable not to be a source of strength. Many men | of moderate means acquired by their own efforts are a tower of strength. If the money made In Norwich in the past during the high tides of busi- ness had found emplovment here, the grewth and prosperity of this clty would have no limit. The banking capital of & town is a good advertisement to attract business. It needs to be emploved in the town in | arder to help it It is a rather vain| thing otherwise. The accumulation of @ large banking surplus employed else- where contributes but little to our city. The spirit of friendly helpfulness weuld contribute much to the progress and growth of any community. Assets in Young Men. The chief asset of any town Is its voung men. Encourage them to stay here. Give them the same opportunity thut others have who come from abroad to make their home and their living with us. They have not had it| in the past. We welcome all who come but let us not unduly exalt the strang- er within our gates to the disadvant- age of those who have their beginning here.

Toastmaster Macphersan closed the banquet about 180 a. m. by calling for a rising vote of thanks for the speak- ers, Committees in Charge. The two committees in charge of the banquet, whose work made it such a notable ‘success, were the entertain- ment committee, consisting of A. S. Spalding, Noah Rogers, Jr., N. A. Gibbs, G. L.
