After hearing the merits the credit rating book as explained by W. S. Townsend of Hartford at an open meeting held at Buckingham Memor- lal on Monday evening under the aus- pices of the Mercantile Bureatf of the WNorwich Chamber .of Commerce, a number of local merchants announced their intention of joining the proposed movement to establish a similar sys- tem here in Norwich. The credit rat- ing system is now being used with much success in the larger cities of the state and in cities of a number of other states. The meeting was called to order about 8 o'clock by the chairman of the bureau, Frank G. Aubrey and the first business to come before the members was the election of a secre- tary to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Leo Kronig. Dr. C. A. Spear was unanimously chosen as sec- retary and_took office immediately. Secretary Spear read the minute of the last meeting and they were ap- proved. The matter of by-laws for the newly formed bureau was then taken up for discussion. Charles 1. Smith, a mem- ber of the committee appointed to in- vestigate and report on by-laws, pre- sented a copy of the by-laws used by the mercantile bureau in Providence. Mr. Smith was requested to read the by-laws and after hearing the reading it was voted that the chair be em- powered to appoint a committee of five to draw up a suitable set of by- laws from the by-laws committee's re- port. Chairman Aubrey appointed the following: Charles I Smith, F. W. Guild, C. E. Smith, Dr. C. A. Spears and John E. Fanning. They will re- port later. C. Bdward Smith, Dr. C. A. Spear, F. W. Guild and W. R. Baird were ap- pointed members of the executive committee to fill the vacancies on the committee_caused by the resignations of P. J. Morley, R. F. Smith, J. J. Moore and James L. Crawford. The reading of communications to the bureau was postponed until the next meeting so that the time could be devoted to the talk on the credit rat- ing book which was delivered by Mr. Townsend. Mr. Townsend told of the large per- centage of business that is being car- ried on under the credit system and explained to the members how ths credit rating book would save dollars to the merchants. The book in ques- tion if put inti service here will con- tain the names of every purchaser in the city who makes purchases on credit. Opposite his name will appear his rating, that is, the book will tell at a glance whether he is a prompt payer, a slow paver or a patron who does not care to pay his bills at all unless he is hounded by the merchant. By means of this book a merchant would be able to tell at a glance whether or not a customer is worthy of_receiving credit. Mr. Townsend exhibited the book that is used in Pittsfield and which contains the names of 21,000 people in that city and vicinlty who buy on credit. After his talk he answered a number of questions relative to the es- tablishment of the system in this city. Charles W. Pearson, secretary «of the Norwich Chamber of Commerze, read two communications he has jus received relative to fake schemes that ahe being carried on in this state with more or less success. One of the schemes is being carried on by two men who have been operat- ing in Connecticut soliciting personal aid. The story is_practically the same in each case. The gentleman claims to have a sickness or brain fever which has left him deaf and Aumb. He s now raising money to learn to operate a_linotype machme or some- thing of the kind so that he can make a living. One_gentleman claims the name of F. A. Shannon and states that he was a telegraph operator for the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western at Newark. Investigation brings the report that this claim is mot true. Tn regard to the other fake solicita- tion going on in Connecticut the com- munication states: Parties are covering different sec- tions of the state selling little pamph- lets called The Mothers and Children’s Aid Magazine,, said to be the official organ of the Mothers and Children's Aid_society with headquarters at Co- lumbus, O. The method is to employ someone locally, when possible, to sell the pamphlets, giving them 3150 a day, providing they sell 30 or more copies. The impression is given by the local party selling the magazine that the profit goes for the aid of the anti-tuberculosis movement. The lo- col party is usually perfectly honest in_her opinion. The writer says he has been inform- ed from parties in Ohio that the Mothers znd Children's Aid society has been pronounced a fake by the Ohio State Board of Charities. A party claiming the name of E. Clifford has been canvassing the resi- dential sections of some cities takinz orders for the Empire State Hosiery Works, New York, selling three pairs of hose for $1. A complaint has come where the order was given and the | money paid but the hose not received. A letter addressed to the company at the address shown on their printed card is returned by the postoffice da- partment stating that the party could not be found by the New York post- office department. The second communication read was relative to the operations of parties in different sections in_the state, claim- ing to represent a Philadelphia Pub- lishing company, ané stating that they are taking Interior pictures of vari- ous mercantile and other establish- ments for the purpose of showing them in a book which they are to pubd- lish shortly. An investigation has re- vealed the fact that wherever these people have operated they have at- tempted to sell pictures and that mo far no report has been obtained which will verify their claim that they pub- lish books showing these pictures. It has been found that these people have attempted to take pictures in the interfor of manufacturing plants and the suggestion has come from reliable sources that possibly the taking of pictures in mercantile establishments is only a blind and that the real pur- Pose may be the securing of pictures of the interiors of manufacturing plants. 2 After the business meeting those DPresent enjoyed a buffet lunch. Mr. Townsend said Monday night that he intends to get to work on the furthering of the rating book system in this city as soon as possible. TWO COMPENSATION CASES. Papers Were Filed by Com Donohue Monday. Papers in two compensation agree- ments were filed with Clerk Parsons in the superior court on Monday by Compensation Commissioner J. J. Donomue as follows: The Ponemah Mills, employers,Taft- ville, and Joseph Brillion, employe, Taftville Bmploye was injured Feb. 25th when he fell from a staging and suffered lameness.

The Myrkle Harder company opened a week’s engagement at the Davis the- atre on Monday with Bought and Paid For, the play that made New York sit up and take notice. The Myrkle Har- der company is well known to the Norwich theatregoers, for they make an annual visit to the Rose of New England, and when they appeared Monday afternoon were given a warm welcome by a very large house. The attendance at the evening performance was even larger and the production was woll received. The play was pre- sented just as the New York thcatre- goers saw it at The Play House, where it had a run of ten months. Jimmy Gilley carried the comedy part well and kept the house in a state of ex- pectation all the time he was on the stage. P — AT THE AUDITORIUM, Vaudeville and Moving Pictures. Carmen, the much talked of Para- mount feature moving picture, which is being shown at the Auditorium the first three days of this week, attracted good sized houses at all performances Monday. The film is produced by Cecil B. DeMille and is very artistic, beauti- tul, and is full of action. Tn the wonderful arena scene dis- playing the methods of bull fighting over 20,000 people were used in the cast, and the leading roles of charac- ters were selected from the best movie actors In the country. Besides the feature attraction, there was a two reel Pathe comedy entitled The Tom Boy. This with the addition of Some Baby makes up a bill of Screaminets fomav mictures. BARBERS’ SMOKER.

Olives Tomatoes Macaroons An application for a received for the Uncas Power company of Uncasville was made Monday In New Haven be- fore Judge Thomas of the United States district court by Mrs. Nellie M. Alexander of Providence, R. I, repre- senting 380 of the 3,000 shares of cap- ital stock of the company. The Uncas Power company furnishes power to several concerns in and about Norwich. Mrs. Alexander claims that the company, which was at one time owned chiefly by persons in the east- ern part of the state, is now controlled by Boston interests, that it has made no reports to the state secretary and that it is losing money. The application was opposed by At- torney Samuel C. Morehouse, who ask- ed that it be dismissed on the ground that the federal court has no jurisdic- tion in the matter. Of Another Kind.
