The Windham County Farmers' as- soclation meets at the rooms of the Doard of trade this afternoon at two o'clock. The Eastern Connecticut Development committee is also sched- uled to be present. The afternoon will be given over to a “Farm Boost,” the meeting of the development commit- tee following that of the farmers' as- sociation. Crowd Expected at Special Meeting. In contrast to the short town meet- ing of last week, which laid a six mill tax in five minutes without any fire- works, it is expected that Thursday night's special city meeting will be one of considerable action because of the opponents and adherents of per- manent paving. The meeting was called by Mayor Dunn at the request of a considerable number of ‘tax-payers to revoke the action taken some weeks ago, when the city voted five thousand doliars for permanent paving. Already the argu- ments pro and con are being bandied about, and the orators are getting in shape for tomorrow's battle. Senti- ment seems about evenly divided at present.
