The first picture shown was of & road laid in Massachusetts in 1801, still in good shape and needing no repairs. ~ The pictures showing the operation of the plants, and the care- ful way in which the component parts of the mixture are measured, were par- ticularly _interesting. In addition, streets having heavy traffic such as iston and Huntington streets, Bos- were shown. ‘Warrenite, said Mr. Clewley, is a mixture of large. medium and small trap rock, gravel, etc., bound togeiher in cement, with varying proportions accurately’ determined to the kind of sub-soil. The lecture was well aitended, and much interest was exhibiied in the subject. Mr. Clewley and his assist- ant, Charles’ W, Dilworth, distributed pamphlets containing the methods pur- sued by Warren Brothers and testimo- nlals from all over the country. There are roads of this material from Cal- gary to New ,Orleans, in Honolulu. South America and abroad. Mr. Dilworth was the gentleman who made arrangements for the talk through Rev, William S. Beard, chair- man of the entertainment commitiec of the Board of Trade. and he express- ed mmself to a Bulletin reporter as more than pleaged with their reception in Willimantic, saying he had been treated with the utmost courtesy and made many friends while in town ‘At the conclusion of Mr. Clewley's remarks he was given a vote of tnanks for his interesting talk, and it is cer- tain that the cause of good roads received a stimulus from his visit, D.

The company was'well balanced and formed an excelient supporting cast for Miss Robson in the title part. The play was by James Forbes and held many_a laugh and many clever lines. The scenery was well chosen and the production finely staged, alitough on account of the facilities of the theatre it could not all be used.
