A meeting of the Bastern Connecti- cut Develépment committee, with President Joseph T. Cruttenden in the chair, was held in Foresters' hall on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock with four: principal matters discussed be- fore it. First, It was decided not to change the name of the orgenization to the ‘Bastern Connecticut Chamber of Commerce. The. question of Wheth- er the small pamphlet, Push, should Dbe published quarterly was disposed of by appointing a committee of five to confer with the newspapers of the territory as to whether they would publish a page or less on the develop- ment committee's work. The com- mittee to take this up is H. S. Doton of New London, J. E. Vaughn of this <city, Rev. W. S Beard of Willimantic, F. E. Bitgood of Danielson and L. O. Williams of Putnam. A vote of thanks to the Norwich Bulletin was passed for a recent ed- itorial entitled, “Bigger and Better Eastern Connecticut.” The question of establishing a joint credit bureau for all the affiliated as- sociations was discussed and was passed over to the next meeting. Upon discussion of a summer outing Mr. Humphrey, Mr. Chidsey and Mr. Doton of New London said that that city would be glad to have them come there, and that invitation was ac- cepted. The May meeting, which will be the annual meeting, is aleo to be at New London, and at this President Crutten- den said they would have someone to talk upon a health subject. He said Connecticut was interested in having eliminated from it vacation typhold, which was one of the things that Ntw York was passing out to her neigh- boring states, and especially to Con- necticut. Firet Selectman A. W. Lillibridge was present and was asked to speak about the grange, which he did brief- ly, and H. R. Branche spoke of the six Branges in this part of the state which are at present engaged in an effort to own their own grange homes. A. E. Cherry made a report on the Norwich Building and Loan assocla- tion. and a vote of appreciation was passed to Rev. W.'S. Beard upon hie action in declining a call to e Chicago pastorate and deciding to stay in Wil- limantic. A vote of thanks was also passed to Secretary C. W. Pearson for the part he haq had in securing favor- able legislative action upon the bill reducing the amount of wages subject to attachment for debt. Alfred P. Perkins, fleld secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States of America, was pre- sented by President Crutfenden, and gave-a history of the organization, told of its purpose and described the method of obtaining opinions of busi- ness men throughout the country on matters of general business interest. Then he referred. in his talk to the methods of party referendum matters. An educator of business opinion as well as an expression of it was urged upon the members of the BEastern Connecticut Development committee as the most vital means for stimulating the interest of business men in_smaller associations- and in matters often too much neglected by men of business. FUNERAL. Michael Kelly. At 8.30 o'clock Friday morning the funeral of Michael Kelly was held from his home, No. 76 Union street ‘with a requiem mass at St. Patrick’s church at 9 o'clock, Rev.

Work in Order of the Temple, There was a large attendance on Friday evening at the Masonic temple at a special meeting of Columbian commandery, No. 4, Knights Templar. It was for work in the order of the temple. secretary of the National Chamber of ‘Commerce, was the speaker Friday night in Fo hall, before the Norwich Chamber of Commerce, giving. the 30 members present a very clear idea’ of the scope and intent of the National Chamber of Commerce. To the Norwich men he said. he brought the greeting of the largest commercial organization in the world. He was introduced - by President ‘Willlam H. Cruickshank, who conduct- ed the meeting and when Hr.mn. had finished speaking, the e Chamber of Commerce voted unani- o Jmously to join !h. ‘body which Mr. Perkins represented. Quoting the words of Mr, Wheeler, first president of the Natfonal Cham- ber of Commerce, that “Commercial organization is the most significant influence for good that has developed within the United States within the present generation. Mr. Perkins went on to describe very completely what the National Chamber of Commerce was aiming to do. It has been making a study of un- occupled markets and credit and fin- ancial conditions and placing this In- formation at the disposal of its mem- bers. By the referendum vote, which VETERAN IN THE U. S. POSTAL SERVICE, m A. Wells Concluded 35 Years on Friday. Major Wil Senior in point of service by several. years in the Norwich toffice, Major Willlam A. Wells on Friday concluded 85 years of actua] service in the post- office, having entered the service when he was just out of school. Only two Besides himself are now living of the original six who were in the service when he received his appointment in September, 1876. This was when the late . George Bidwell was postmaster and the late WILLIAM A. WELLS, Charles H. Dillaby was assistant post- master, and there were six employes in the postoffice at the time. How the service has grown in the 35 years that have passed is indicated when it is stated that under the present post- master there are now 75 employed in the main office and the stations. He was the first city carrier appointed and served-as a carrier in different parts of the city for over 22 years and for a number of years has been in charge of the free delivery, where his thorough knowledge of all branches of the ser- vice is reflected in the high standard that is maintained in that department of service to the Norwich public, who recognize that the Norwich free de- livery is the best in the state and that all mails go out on time, even in the Christmas rush. That such a record is achieved speaks volumes for the work- ing plan that has been figured out and is put into practice under Major Wells. During the first Cleveland adminis- tration he was out of the postal ser- vice, but he has served under five dif- ferent Norwich postmasters and in four different locations in the _city. During that time he has seen and ex- perienced many changes in the differ- ent policies of several postmasters general. Major Wells is a 32 desree Mason, a past officer in several Masonic bodies and an active worker in that fraternal organization. As a postoffice employe he is an earnest advocate of the pension sys- tem for government employes, which now has the support of a constantly growing number of legislators who have seen how often a government employe has put in the best years of his life in the public service, only to be discarded at the end.

He was given a rising vote of thanks and was also asked a number of ques. tions, which he replied to in an in- teresting way, telling of the weekly bulletins on trade and legislative mat- ters which are sent out to its mem- bers by the National Chamber of Com- A, Brnest Cherry, secretary of th Norwich Building and Loan associ: tion, gave a report of the progress that had been made in organization, stat- ing that the first series of shares would be begun on July 1st and that already 140 shares had been subscribed for and many more were expected.
