The man in the baker's wagon, Man- der testified that - saw the two cars and both of them were on their right side of the road, and he was so excited and his horse so excited that he could not say which was to blame.

In these com- munities the college men hiked with the boys and attended their social gather- ings. The social events of the Saturd: were followed by a Sunday religious pro- gramme. The boys were led to sce that college men in many instances are strong, Christian men. As an outgrowth of the work started in Fitchville, a Poultry club, enrolling 11 boys has been formed. This is evi- dence of the vocational work that is be- ing promoted. The county committees, through its Secretaries, has maintained a close co- operation with Dhoth New London and Norwich city Y. M. C. On numer- ous occasion the secretaries rendered definite service by assisting in local pro- grammes. Six ex-service men have been awarded scholarships by the educatfonal comm tee. The scholarships cover 3 wide range of courses, and in value, total $412.. More than 40 different gatherings have been addressed in the interest of work with bovs during the past vear. In many cases the secretaries took charge complete church services. During July, 1919, the county com- mittee of this county, in conjunction with those of Hartford and Middlesex coun- ties conducted a successful camp for bovs on Lake Terremuggus, Marlboro, Conn.; 26 hovs and two adult leaders were onrolled from 10 communities of this county. From all the counties there was a total of 107 campers. This will be a regular feature of the work. A camp run by the committee is not only a vacation but an ideal arrangement for character building in the open. Following the hearing.of the reports there was an inspirational address by Hugh D. Maydole, international secre- tary of the county work department. The henediction was pronounced by Rev., | Charles Smith, pastor of the Baltic M. E. church.
