A brief shower in the middle of the after- noon had little effect upon the attend- ‘ance and -none upon the comfort of those present, us all were protected by the leafy roof of the wigwam.

Lerou's move to clear the jitneys, out of Rose alley and to establish new traffic regulations for them was voted by the members of the Retary club at its week- 1y luncheon Wednesday at the Wauregan house. The mayor invited any members of the club who could do so to attend the hearing Friday in the superior court upon the jitneymen's application for an in- junction to restrain the city from putting the new traffic regulations into effect. President Joseph C. Worth presided at the luncheon and two new members, Charles J. Twist and Alex McNichol, were introduced and formally made members. Charles R. Butts, assistant secretary and t urer of the Norwich Savings society, gave an .instructive and enter- taining talk along banking and fire insur- ance lines. He spoke first of the Norwich Mutual Insurance company, of which he is the treasurer and the only officer. Its history makes a unique chapter in fire insurance annals. It was formed in 1794 by a dozen or fifteen Norwich people and the first policy was written on a house at Norwich Town and is still in force. One of the early provisions was that houses insured in the company had to bear a label to that effect, which was usually a plate over the front door. After a few years the company was able to return to its pelicy holders 100 per cent. of their premiums and for man ears now the policies hava been renewed from year to_year without costing the hoiders anyth The company now has $12 000 at risk on about 145 buildings, in- cluding two of the town's school build- ings at Norwich Town, and is probably the strongest fire insurance company in the world. At the time it was formed there was only one fire insurance com- pany in this country, the Ben Franklin of Philadelphia, but the Norwich company is now the oldest one that has been in business continuously, for the Ben Franklin had one period in which it did no business, although it later resumed and is now a going concern. In. speaking about the banking’ busi- néss Mr. Butts related something of the early history of the Norwich Savings so- ciety, which he said was organized in 1824; primarily with the idea of encour- aging thrift and providing a place where the ordinary person might profitably place his money, as opportunities for the &mall investor were not many in those days. The first deposit was of $200, made on July 24, 1824, by Dorcas Mans- field. The bank started in the rear room of -the Norwich bank, which was where Shannon’s corner now is, and the savings society ;was at first open only on ‘“the first and third Mendays of each month, in the forenoon.” Mr. Butts spoke of the founders of the Savings society as illustrating the type of men then in the community And added the interesting bit of information that the banks of Norwich today have a total of available banking capital of $36,000,000, which on a population of 30,000 means an average of $1,200 per person. It is doubtful if many cities can make a bet- ter showing.

TROLLEY COMMITTEE REJECTS PLAN FOR STATE STRIKE At a meeting of the general commit- tee representing the trolley employes of the Conneeticut “company, held in New Haven Tuesday night, the tentative plam of the motormen and conduetors of the company througheut the state to call a strike was rejected. It was pointed out at the eting that such a plan would turn the public against them and at this time when the situation in Conneecticut is one causing the company heavy losses because of the jitney problem, such a step could not be considered. The com- mittee suggested that before further ac- tion was taken by the men the company would be asked for advice in the matter. The dnvasion of the jitneys has caused hundreds of trolleymen .to lose their jobs and this ‘meeting was far the purpose of deciding ways and means of confronting the problem of lost positions by jitney competition.
