A, A'UXILI_ARV HELD OPENING MEETING INVITED TO GOME. Dressmaking Concern Asked to Look Over Place for Their Business Here. Willimantic, Nov. 2— The regular meeting of the Board of Trade was held in their.Main street rooms Tuesday evening with a good attendance. The most important report ' heard was that of the membership commit- tee, which in conjunction with the special committee recently appointed laid ir the names of 21 applicants for memtership, with others to follow soon. New blood and renewed enthu- siasm in this organization bid fair to make 1915-16 a record year. Rev. Willilam S. Beard for the enter- talnment committee presented their plans for the coming year as follows: Nov. 9—A military evening at the request of Company L, when it is probable that General Coles ana Col- onel Goodman of Hartford, with the officers of the local company, will tell of the plans for increasing the effi- clency of the <Connecticut National guard. Nov. 30—A dlecussion of the charl- ties question, whether the United Charities association is doing what was expected and whether it should be cortinued. open meetings. Dec. 7—A supper and meeting for the new members and an entertainment by local members which will be in the nature of a grand get-together meet- ing in the interests of the organiza- on. After the first of the year there will be several meetings given over to the discusslon of civic questions. In addition the rooms will be of- fered for the use of the women's inter- ests in raising an amount of money to build Windham hall at the Connecticut Woman's college. A letter was read by the secretary urging participation in, the~ National Chamber of Commerce,”and it was voted to apply for membership. Corresponding Secretary W. C. Nor- ris reported hearing from a Boston dressmaking concern which wanted 6,000 feet of floor space and plenty of electric power, and said the space had been fcund and the cohcern notified to_come on to investigate. There was some discussion in regard to inadequate telephone service, and a vote was passed which, while stating the appreciation of the members for the kirdness of the company in cover- ing a large territory with the local ex- change, requested more prompt -and accurate service at the switchboard. Mr. Norris etated that First Salect- man E. P. Chesbro was showing a commendable desire to listen to the advice of the biisiness men in the City and that there were several questions, such as the disposition of the old town property on Church street and the two buildings on the high school property, on wkich the opinion fo the assocla- tion might be of value. It is probable that a short discussion of these mat- ters will be held at the meeting of Dec. Tth. The meeting lasted about an hour, adjourning at 9.20.

The meeting ‘was’ conducted by the president, Mrs. H. M.

International committee and Ge eral Secretary Green of the New Lon- don association. - Mr. Green gave a de-. scription of ‘the new building which the New London association is to have and Mr. Rugh spoke briefly but vividly and impressively of the association work in China and of the oppartunitfes that the future holds there. for a great work that will win the nation for Christianity if the association has the support to_arise to its: opportunity. One, of .the particularly. .interesting announcements made was of the plan that has been pérfected by which the auxiliary is to give the opening enter- tainment at the new amusement hall and theatre at the Norwich state hos- pital. This, it was teportéd, was to be an amateur 'vaudeville entertainment that will run for two nights and for which amateur talent that is the best in Nor- wich, and is close to professional abil- ity, has been enlisted and promised.

OLD SOLDIERS' COMPLAINT. Governor of Opi n That Food Is Not Well Served at Noroton— Doesn’t Like Dormitory Plan. re- Some time ago complaint was made to Governor Holcomb alleging unsat- isfactory conditions at the Soldiers’ home at Noroton, involving the food furnished. The governor has received from the officlals of the home a menu for each meal during the week. The governor does not think. there s ground for reasonable complaint con- cerning the character of the food fur- nished at the home. As the governor understands the _situation the com- plaint is not so much against the food as the way it ie served. Care has not been, taken to make it appetizing. In’ the complaint to the governor it was. stated that the hash furnished for breakfast was fried in cotton seed oil and some of the inmates were un- able to eat it. 3 John Dunn. now’ a resident of Brooklyn, N. Y., but at orie time com- missary serzeant at the home, called on the governor and confirmed - the complaint about the manner in which the food was served. Mr. Dunn en- listed from Hartford In Company D, First Connecticut cavalry, and served during the Civil war. The question of the dormitory ac- commodation has been considered by Governor Holcomb and he does not think the system Is ideal. but it would be necessary to rebuild the home en- tirely if it was decided to abolish the dormitory system and the changes this would necessitate would involve an ex- pense which, perhaps, the general as- sembly would not authorize. Governor Holcomb thinks it would be much better to have the inmates of the home sleep in rooms, each room to contain two or three beds, one bed for every man. It might prove a feas- ible compromise. John H. Thatcher, Hartford member of the hospital board of the Soldiers' home, i= also of the opinion that the dormitory system ought to be superseded by something Rt ‘"Wa.. their” raler: wfl]b-no .&, hz‘n-:- Wonderful Remedy results for stomach, liver and. intesti- nal allments.

OUT-OF-TOWN COMPANY WANTS TO BUILD HERE Has Offer to Make'to Norwich Hous- ing Company. latest ~development about through th: in Norwich to meet the demand to be created through the influx of employes for the Hopkins & Allen Arms com- pany is that one or more-out-of-town Building and realty companies, nclud- ing a vidence company, have of- fered to take hold of the construction of houses in this city, though. the offer has not yet officially come before the Norwich Housing company.so that it could be officially taken into consider- ation by them. The suggestion is that the out-of- town company should take the hous- ing company’s order for the number of houses they desire to bulld after the Housing company has secured the land for locating them. The building com- pany would ‘take a mortgage on the houses. In this manner it is suggest- ed that more could be done than if the Housing company were confined to the work that it could do with the amount of money that the stock sub scriptions would make available. It is believed that arrangements along such lines may be_ made. President Walter F. Lester of the Norwich Housing. company has_been authorized by the directors to make an offer for one parcel of land. Secretary. John J. Corkery has been given the same authority regarding - another tract. The directors have already made an ofter for a third piece of real es- tate. TESTIMONY FAVORABLE TO REAR ADMIRAL LITTLE Given by Lieutenant W. G:. Childs, Whe Was His Assistant. Boston, Nov. 2.—A conversation in the course of which Rear Admiral Wilkam . Little, retired, refused to accept the batteries of the submarine K-2 until her bullders had. agreed to make good any defects that might develop, was described at today’s ses- sion of the courtmartial of the rear admiral on charges of neglect and careless methods in connmection With his duties as inspection officer. The testimony was given by Lisu- tenant Warren G. Childs, who was assistant inspector of machinery at the Fore River shipyar while the sub- marine was under construction. He said Admiral Little called the atten- tion of S. A. Gardner, representative of the Electric Boat company, builders of the submarine, to conditions _that might arise from the presence of lead drops in the battery. Mr. Gardner, Lieutenant Childs said, agreed to stand back of the battery, so far as damage from lead drops was concerned, throughout the life of the battery. To this Rear Admiral Littlo replied, according to the witness, that he must have the company’s word for such an agreement and this was se- cured by telephone. Lieutenant Childs was not positive. that there was such an agreement in writing, but he could “almost swear” thiat he had seen a let- ter from the company officials in Whici. they agreed to stand by the life of the battery of the K-2 provided they were not obliged to overhaul all the bat- teries of this type. Admiral Little described according to Lieutenant Childs,” that so_far .as he was concerned he had no: fear that there was_anything serious the matter with the battery. Under. cross ‘exarn- ination Lieutenant Childs said that in his opinfon the battery was in’ excel-. lent condition when accepted. l.publlclll Confidence. spublican’ ~campaigners . ‘do mot bellovo that leaving Mr. Marshall off the ticket will make any difference worth noticing In-the actual’ result— ‘Washington Star.
