Chairman Eastern Connecticut Devel- opment Committee: Dear Sir:— I want to send you just a line, to give you if possible, some idea of the appreciation on the part of our mem- bers who were present at the banquet at which the members of the Eastern Connecticut Development committee Wwere your guests on the evening of Feb. 21. The 50 members who attend- ed from our association were largely those who attended the banquet a year ago, and many of those in securing their tickets remarked: “Norwich set the standard so high last year she w hardly be able to g0 ome better this vear,” and so it seemed until we were ushered into the dining hall, when we found that even if Norwich set a high standard a year ago she had discov- ered a way to go one better this year. We are still hearing echoes from the banquet as our members meet on the street, and it was a happy idea in arranging the telephone programme, which ion to us all in the clear- your members had splendid ¢ miles of wire. cerely, J. C. TRACY, Willimantic Board - of Past President Trade. New London, Conn.

Putnam, Conn., Feb. 26, 1916. Chairman Eastern Connecticut Devel- opment Committee: Dear Sir:— Our people regard the banquet held In Norwich Feb. 21st under the au- |spices of the Eastern Connecticut De- velopment committee as a huge suc- |cess. They are unanimous in praising ithe excellent cuisine, efficient service and attractive setting of the dinner it- self. The programme of entertainment was most enjoyable. Transcontinental telephony was an impressive novelty to most of us. The local committee of arrangements comes in_ for hearty pirillse on the adequacy of its prepara- tion. The most impressive and satisfying feature, however, was the class of men brotght together on that occasion. The average callbre of the men and their representative character were obvious. Bringing together 250 of the leading men of eastern Connecticut was a tri- umph for association metho The union of forces such as these must stimulate pride in this region and pro- mote its best interests. Progress in the future will inevitably result. Sincerely yours, J. HARRIMAN, Secretary Putnam Chamber of Com- merce.
