BUSINESS MEN’S BANQUET. [ Live Organization Celebrates Its First Anniversarv—President Prince Re- views the Year—Address by Rev. E. A. Legg. The first annual meeting and ban t of the Danielson Business Men'z cciation, a live organization, was eld in the dining hall of the Attawau- an hotel Tuesday evening, the me bers assembling at about 8.15 meeting is mentioned first, but as matter of fact it was deferred umiil after the members had dome full justice to the very fine array of good things Landiord Stephen D. Horton had provided. The dining hall was pretti | 1y arranged and when the members | gathered it was e scene of much animation, good r and good will, a predominant feature being the exceed good fellowship dis- The b banguet was thoroughly enjoy- flow of good nature ed. e | throughout the veriod spent at the ta- bles. The menu was as follows: Blue Points on the Half Shell Consomme Olives Celery Radishes { .

At the post-prandial exercises Pres- ident Nathan D. Prince of the associa- tion presided. Fis welcome to the members and their guests was followed by the regular business meeting for assing on routine maitters, and this v reports of officers and heads of com- mittees. In his annual report President Princ» sadd: “In the early part of this year u few of our business men, realizing th~ advantage to be gained by friendly co- o eration, suggested a conference, with e idea of organizing a business men’s association or reorganizing the Board of Trade. We all agreed as to the ne- cessity of the Board of Trade, but up on a further exchange of ideas it was decided that an organization that would strive for a feeling of good fel- lowship and co-operation upon the part of our local business men as a whoie would render a signal service to Dan. ielson and its people.” Reviewing the work of organizaiion, “Meetings “were cajl~ ré- wiil closc | n to Danielson | | tive weeks, these finally resulting in | the organization of the Danielson Bus- iness Men's association, with 27 char ter members. This number has been | gradually increased to 83. The asso- ciation immediately began to consider matters for the improvement of Dau- ielson. One of the first things taken up was a change of terminai for the trolley freight line. This was neces- sarily slow work, because of condi- tions, but the result sought was finaily secured and, T believe, is an improve- ment to the’ borough and a benefit to the merchants. “Later in the year a special com- mittee of the association was appoint- *d to confer with borough ofiicials rel- ative to having better lighted streets in the business section, with the result that not orly was this result obtained, angement of the lighting i service and a great improvement in it ; throughout the borough. ! Matters of clean streets, merchants from public peddle without a license, { chants in clo - xnd other occ; protecting vendors who charitable ad- . building a_connect- ing lin ite road with ihe Rhode Isiand via South Killingly, op- on to granting of additional li- s and a committee to confer with the borough board of health for the burpose of securing better sanitary conditions in some se: ough were all given attention at various meetings. though the past vear has ts there a ill very im- i matters to con and diffi- ‘uit tasks to underts Our depot facilities should be improved, even though this necessitates an appropri- ation from the borough. The attrac- tivene: of a new, well lighted, heated jand ventilated building would be a g improvement. A trolley express ervice from New London and Nor- j wich has been agitated and can beé :ured should our members deem it an advantage. Rebuilding of Main street after the method so successfully used Pnumm and removal of all the busir ection is ed improvement.” Relative to Kiilingly’'s debt, Mr. g ce id: “There a steady in- ase in the town expenditures and in the town debt. This matter must be squarely faced and overcome. We can- not afford to stand silently by and pass on to the next generation a town crip- pled with an ever-increasing debt. “Let us enthuse our people and them aroused over Ds ‘mt1~-1n4 PO bilities. Tet them w about our stores and industries and get them in- sted in home enterprises. remem- that pride in our community is one of the greatest assets that a town can have.” Reports Presented. Mr. Prince, in el Following his addre a very pleasing ‘introduced the other officer: s of committees having reports to make. F. E. Bit- good reported as treasurer, Judge Ha ry E. Back eéxplained important fea- tures of the new compensation act. E. H. Keach reported for the grievance committee, D. E. Jette for the mem- bership committee, A. I.. Reed for the finance committee, I.. J. Morin for the sanitary committee, A. P. Woodward for the advertising committee. These reports showed the organization to be in a thriving condition. Rev. E. A, Legg’s Address. The address of the evening was by Rev, E. A. Legg, pastor of the Metho- dist church. In a talk of half an hour Rev. Mr. Legg presented some thoughts that held the closest atten- ) tlon of his audience and gave the mem bers much to think about. Team work b% the business men s the surest way of securing efficiency in serving the community, he said. There i3 a new note being struck in he business world, said Rev. Mr. legg, emphasized by Theodore Roosevelt under the head of Character and described by as man-making as a chief end of iness endeavor. He who desires his income from public patronage is a public servant and this applies to the small merchant as well as to the large corporations and the great monopolies, was the thought elaborated upon by the speaker, whose whole address pointed the way to the transaction of business on a high plane of honor and indicated the possibilities for eliminat- ing the unworthy and the unscrupu- lous from the ranks of those in the business world, OBITUARY.
