Our platform, while very modest, is an ambitiong one, as there are 3 limits to its possibilities, pro- viding: the co-operation which it de- is obrtained. During the period of the war. our Champer like those of other cities be- came imbued with the spirit of Na- tionalism, at the experise of lesser lo- cal interests: now that the war is over and peace declared (not), we are still imbued with the spirit of Nation- alism>but of a localized nature. So then, our platform is “A Better Citi- zenship and a. PRetter Willimantic.’ On ithis platform, Without reference to rade. relizion or politics it becomes possible for us all to assemble and discu local policies with freedom and cgnfiderce. ¢ At present time a strong’ effort is bel made to enlist the interest and the co-operhtion of. those who, thouef speaking a foreign tomgue in additil to our own, showed during the st two years their loyalty to Al n institutions in a most prais orthy’ manner. w.utl-o hfie the support of all citizens who feel '.hu ir full duty is done when there are nQ outstanding grocers’ hills, We feel t those who enjor the plea- ing for the prevention o the coming vear and lend every | |been coming in far greater numbers Hits the Bilion Mark contribute daily a small portion of their time to Community Welfare, Membership is solicited not upon the promise of benefits to be derived by the individual, but upon’the states ment that we need the enthusiastic service of every man who will aid in creating “a better citizenship and a better Willimantic.” Three hundred and seventy-five of us.

NEW LONDON WITNESSING GREAT MATERIAL ADVANCE New London can look back upon 1919 with satisfaction and forward to 1920 with hope and confidence. The past twelve monthshave witnessed great material advance in this city. Much building has been done, both business and residential. Never were S0 many improvements made in a similar period of time in its history. Great building projects scheduled for 1920, among them the $500.000 jun- jor high school, Murphy Amusement THEODORE BODENWEIN President Company new theater, Methodist church, Bloom company silk mill, | Connecticet College dormitory, prom- |ise tremendous activity in the build- jing line. The re-organized Chamber of Com- merce has fully justified its existence. ‘It has inculated a new spirit of enter- prise and co-operation which is mak- ng itself p’ainly manifest. H deavors six new important in- dustries were located in New London jin the year. Several more should be added to this number in 1920 and cer- tainly will be if the Chamber's project f an ind ing condition. The most cordial relations t between its manufacturers and their employes.

Series have been. started semi-an- nually and with the ending of the coming period we will have completed five years of our .existance. In com- paring our history with older Associ- ations in our state we’/have found that it is the same as many of theirs, taking a few years .to disseminate the knowledge of its benefits to the person in the average walks of life but gathering increased momentum to its-activities' as it became ‘more widely known. All associations have founq like ex- periences during the last three years, little demand for loans for building. but many who have been pleased to make share loans on their money which had been acumulating from { monthly payment for the payment of their various pledges during the war ti ince January, 1919, ap- plicati ons for mortgage loans have than can be cared for. The United States government through its Labor Department has exact knowledge of the situation and izen that the man who has a family and owns his own home makes. Tor furthering publicity in this line it has appointeq the 3rd week in Jan- uary as “Thrift Week” and Tuesday, January 17th as “Own-Your-Own- Home Day.” Heretofore, compara- j tively few people of moderate weckly earnings have thought of their ability to purchase a home for their family but through the plafi of the present Building and Loan Association, they have but'to start paying on a few E.

It was not longer ago than January, 1919 that Connecticut passed the law authorizing us to sell Single. Install- ment Shares in addition to the month- ly payment method. This allows the person having money to invest to make a good dividend and help out our situation by ircreasing our loan- ing power at the same time. These shares carry the same dividend as the Long-term Shares. ‘Whatever is carned by the ‘Association Is distrib- uted to the acounts of its sharehold- ers and is not less than 5 per cent. Strong effort is being made to sell a number of hundred shares in, the 10th series and we ask everyone to consider in these days of prosperous wage for many a worker, how many they might justifiably take and start a regularity in their effort to save. “The first shares sold in the 10th ser- ies were to two ghareholders of earlier series who found they could period- ically put in a.greater amount than they first experimented with, one for five shares the oher for three.

The artistic calendar shows whal old residents of the town well remem- | ber as the George D. Fuller store on Norwich Town- green, long since completely torn down, while next to it on what is now the corner of Elm avenue and Town street is the John Perit bullding, erected some time pre- vious to 1786. The gambrel-roofed building in the picture on the cal@ndar is the Perit house, the IFuller store the | smaller building to the left with its front gable- overhanging the first story. In the three story gambrel-roofed building with brick basement John carried on a mercantile business for some vears up to 1786. The smal- ler building was erected in 1835 by W m Cleveland, grandfather of President . Grover Cleveland., for his son-in-law, George D. Tuller, who u]’\ to the time of his death in April, 1882 conducted a grocery store in the pro- perty. In more recent years the en- tire property has been remodelled and the basement in brick is about all that remains to remind one of the earlier looks of the propertv. In her book published in 1895, Oid Houses of the Antient Town of Nor- the and following ‘mention of the Perit Fuller building: |one of the first Huguenot pastors in America bought the Jonathan Good- hue property. “Whether the old gambrel-roofed building on the corner of the burying ground lane was includcy, among the buildings mentioned in the deed of | sale or was later buit by John Perit, we are unable to say, but in building he for some years carried on a mercantile business, **** In 1736, the Perit house is sold to Asa Spald- ing. who resides here until he moves to the Gov. Huntington house jin 1801. In 1815, Luther Spalding sells the county uses and the lane between the house and the Perit shop for a jal lot. The jail, erected at that time, remains standing until the courts are moved to the Landing and is then shortly after burnt to the ground. The Perit house becomes the home of the jailer and from a tree in front hangs a sign of two crossd keys. In 1835 the county house and jail lot are sold to Wm. Cleveland, who builds for his son-in-law, George D. Fuller (the husband of his daughter Susan) the store now occupiedq by flale. The Perit houses passes into the possession of Henry whose heirs refain it for a while”. “In 1817 the Perit shop property had come into the possession of William Cleveland and after his death this and the adjoining land and store were deeded by the’ Cleveland heirs to George D. Fuller”. In the recollection of the older res- idents of Norwich Town, the Fuller i Store still remains as one of the land- was one of the typical old New Eng- land country stores, where the gossip | of the town was exch ged and where -barrel arzu- ment settled the affairs of state and nation. John T. Wait, the attorney, | whose name is so well remembered |among the older people, had an of- the Perit building and later O.P. ‘Wattles, also a well known attorney of that period, had his office there. For many vears too the brick base- ment of the Perit building was the | shoemaker shop of William Tufts. a contemporary of the Fuller store. For | the past 20 years it has been a m'u'- ket, Joseph T. Frazer and Lucius A. Fenton having been among the earher proprietors. The plot of land with the two buildings on it was left by William Cleveland to his two grandchildren, Harriet M. Fuller (the late Mrs. Lewis R. Hyde) and her brother, Cleveland Tuller, according to the in- formation obtained from members of the family, but George D. Fuller! had the use of it during his lifetime and ran the store, After the death of Mr. Fuller, the store was run for a year or two by John Manning, who had ‘been his clerk, and was also the Norwich Town postmaster., G. Avery Ray succeeded Mr. Manning as store proprietor and postmaster about 1884 and was him- self succeeded by one of his clerks, Herbert W. Hale, in 1894, who con- ducted the store for about nine years. During Mr. Hale's occupancy of the property the Fuller heirs had the buildings entirely remodelled and modernized. The original olg Tuller store building was entirely torn down, the Perit house sharing in the altera- tions which put the property in much its present form. While the rebuilding was in progress Mr. Hale conducted his store in the old Norwich Town schoolhouse, moving back to the old Fuller store site when it was ready for him. H. S. Young fo!)owed Mr. Hale in running the store and postoffice bot] occupying the corner building. The Fenton market was in the basement. In August 1915 the market was bought by William Smith & Co., who pur- chased the grocery store from Mr. Young in November 1915. After the ,|death of Mr. Smith the business was "lsold in January 1919 to Lewis B. Brand, who conductu the store at present and is\in charge of the postal sub-station in the building, both now oommying the corner property, the old “1_ November, 1913 Mrs. Hyde sold the entire property to Henry T.
