O. Ro- dier, who is on a vacation in Canada, Daniel T. Shea, the first vice president, conducted the meeting. It developed at the meeting that between 175 and 200 shares in the 11th series have been taken up. New applications for loans were re- ceived and tbe meeting scted on three building propositions. Because of the increased number of shares taken in the 11th series the meeting was able to act on a greater number of loans than has been usual in the past. | A summary of the assets and liabilities jof the Buildng and Loan Association as! | presented in Secretary Smith’s report | follows: | Assets—first mortgage loans, $20,97 share loans, $3,267; supplies, $40; in stallments due and unpaid, $86; cash in bank, §1991.81; cash in hands of treasurer, $230.95; cash in hands of sec- retary, $10. Liabilities—due shareholders ' on in-| stallments paid, $24,421; dues paid in advance, §$175; reserve fund, $17.96; dividends credited, $1,335; undivided pro- fits, $651. The receipts for the six month period were $12,087.98, and the disbursements 3 The cash balance on hand June 30th was $2,222.16. . DANIELSON MAN BROUGHT TO HOSPITAL FROM CAMP With 553 state guardsmen from New Londoii, Norwich, Danielson, Mystic and the First Separate company, infantry, of Middletown, safely barracked, and With everything moving like clockwork, despite the newness of camp life for nearly two- thirds of the privates, the Third regiment, Connecticut State guard, is on camp duty at Camp Major Rau and Col. Eugene T. Kirkland is greatly pleased with the des- patch and cleverness displayed by the officers and privates. The camp grounds is in the best con- dition in several years, and the scores of first night visitors, which included wives and families of officers and privates, was just as interested in the things they saw as though it was a regular army regiment encamped instead of the state militia. Comments by officers tend to prove that the Third regiment is there with the “wallop” this vear, for it has started with a snap and pep that is/far ahead of the Second regiment recofd of last week, dur- ing the first day. The first day is always the dog day of camp. Despite the enthusiasm and eager- ness displayed by the rookies and officers, the work was such that when guard mount was over at 6 o'clock at night there were very few who wanted to take a dip at Pine Grove, and there were few ab- sentees from camp during the evening. Just a word about the rookies. They are more numerous this year than in the past camps held before the war, and they feel the importance of their station. On Wednesday night, which is “graduation” night for the rookies, they will perhaps be a humbler lot. Great things are in store for them. It is significant that several blankets have been tested as to textile strength. The hospital had a few minor cases to attend to Monday. One unlucky private cut a finger, but was in line at evening parade. One private dropped during drill in the afternoon and had to be taken to the hospital in Colonel Kirkland's car, but he recovered within a few minutes and was excused until guard mount. The state headquarters did not plan for some many men and the result was a chaos over cots, etc., late in the after- noon. Before the last man was.in dream- land, however, each man had his cot, brought in a rush from Hartford. The matter of food is making some of the men a trifie peeved. The trouble is with the supply hcuses where some of the food was purchased, according to one mess sergeant. He said that he has enough for his mess for one day, and the supply is supposed to go for three days. He promised that his men will not starve | and hints of a foraging expedition to an- | other mess, where food is piled high, were made. | The camp was so well guarded that there was little chance for thieves tn_ break in. That is all that the guard is for this year, apparently. The men are put on their honor, and instead of being forced to sign passes for leave from camp at any time, especially evenings, the men are put on their honor to observe the regulations. They may leave camp and may return as they will up to 9.30 p. m. They must be in camp at the latter hour, and at 10.15, when taps are sounded, th must be safely esconced in their “down cots. If a man abuses the regulation and | s out until long after time allowed | he will have a fine chance getting past the guards, and then he will get three square meals a day—in the mill. | There seems to be but one complaint in | camp, especially from the Norwich bat- GRAND CLEAN-UP ABLEMAN’S SHOE SALE LADIES’ WHITE BUCK AND WHITE KID SHOES— NEARLY ALL SIZES $3.45 LADIES’ VALUE UP TO $10.00 MEN’S SHOES Leisure Line, Louis and | For Work and Dress.

Raymond of New York will be the principal speaker at the open meeting of the chamber of commerce this (Tuesday) evening. Mr. Raymond is known throughout the business world as one of its most forceful and successful speakers on industrial problems. He represents the inter-racial council, an organization composed of some 700 ofj the largest industries in the United States including many in Connecticut. The council includes not only our largest industrial establishments but also repre- sents the 32 largest racial groups in the United States, through committees com- posed of their leaders. The great racial problem that interests the manufacturers at the present time is not emigration, which has largely been cut off, but it is immigration. few days ago in New York there arrived in one day over 8,000 immigrants. It look- ed encouraging, but a careful investiga- tion showed that the majority were wo- men and children and many of the others were returning reservists. The net amount. of new. labor coming in is very small. One of the special points Mr. Raymond will present to the members of the cham- ber of commerce is the advantage to themselves, as well as to the foreign born already here who desire to bring rela- tives and friends to this land of promise, of having- better immigration laws. At ‘Washington today there are over 300 bills affecting immigration, the majority of which would keep out of the country incoming immigrants for many years. One of the purposes of this meeting is to acquaint the manufacturers with a proposed bill which the members of the inter-racial council have approved and which has met with the approval of the racial leaders connected Wwith the council. This bill would do away with the literacy test now required, but would place into operation a selective system of immigra- tion that would allow the able-bodied worker to come in and keep the agitator out. Increased production is one of the sub- jects Mr. Raymond will speak on and he has a fund of information which has been of great assistance to members of the council wherever he has them. addressed 0 2H05 PHATE B + BITRO-Phosphate. ‘There are other “phosphates” but mot in brain and nerve cells.
