Fitzgerald was elected president of the Central Labor union for his fifth year at a well attended meeting of the Central Labor union held in Carpentérs hall, Tuesday ev- ening. Mry.

During his four years as president, the organization has made _ rapid strides, and at present it takes in sixteen crafts in this city. When he took the leadership it consisted of but twelve, and through his earnest work- ing four new members have been add- ed during his regime. Mr. Fitzger- ald is a member of the Knights of Columbus and also belongs to t]-_xs Second Division Ancient Order of Hi- bernians. He is also president of the Molders’ union.

Cork- ery zave out the following statement of the finances of the Fourth of July Preparedness committee: All bills have been paid and all by check. The ex- penses were said to have been di- vided between the several committees as follows, each check being approved by the chairman of each committee: Executive committee $89.99, finance committee $82, fireworks committee $314 publicity committee, $315.50, decorations committee $172.47, music committee $204, automobile parade committee $56.26, literary committ $10.90, public safety committee $27, total $127. The total receipts were $1485.75, leaving a balance of $213.48. An adjustment . satisfactory to the Preworks committee and the Connee- ticut Fireworks company of New Ha- ven was made, a reduction having been made in the contract price for the fireworks. The balance will remain in the hands of Treasurer T. C. Murphy for the present and the books will be pre- served for future reference. It is felt that no more complete and satisfac- tory details could have been made for the celebration because the accounting betwcen the chairman of the finance committee, the secretary and the treasurer agreed to a cent. Emergency Tax at Shore Resorts. Internal Revenue Deputy Collector William H. Farrell has received noti- fication from Washington, instructing him to proceed in the coliection of the special emergency tax at the subur- ban shore resorts in this district. Many of the concessionists were of the opinion that they were not liable to the tax in view of the faot that they do business but a couple of months each year. The ruling reecivea today, however, sets that belief aside and suggests that such collections be start- ed immediately. Hadn’t Been There.

This may be the case with some schools, but the Norwich Business College differs in many ways from other schools, inasmuch as students receive real business training and before graduating are giv- en an opportunity *o do real office work until they are com- petent to assume the duties of a stenographer. Our students receive actual business training in our cfiice by doing correspondence for school and for outside parties. The above facts are some of the reasons why business men apply to the Norwich Business College when they want com- petent stenographers and bookkeepers. Now is the Time to Enroll.

Mr. Fanning is always interested in Nor- wich, which was his home for a time during his early manhood, and where his ancestor, Henry Wilson Fanning, @ blacksmith, once followed his trade. David Hale Fanning's ancestry is traced in America to Francis Fan- ning, who was granted land at New Londdn, Conn., in 1664, and to Ed- mund Fanning, one of the original settlers of Stonington Conn., a sol- dier of King Philip’s war, and in England to 1066 when the Congueror came. Francis Fanning krought to the New World the best aftributes of his English and Irish ancestors; and these, strengthened by pioneer = life, were transmitted to Edmund Faaning, and by him to John Fanning, born in 1357, also a soldier of King Philip's war, who received a grant of land at Groton.

Thomas Fanning the Revolutionary soldier, was the father of Henry Wil- son Fanning, who was born in 1786. died in 1836, surviving his honored father but elght vears. He was a blacksmith and followed his trade in Marlboro, Norwich, and Jewett City, Connecticut. He inherited the mii- itary ardor of his sires and when a second war was waged with Great Britain, he entered the _American army, serving as corporal of the com- =402 | pany of Connecticut militia, led by Captain Enos H.
