The present charter has been in existence since 1871. Changing conditions have caused the charter to be o incumbered with amendments that its real vaule has been lost. The revaluation” committee reported progress and the hope was expressed that the matter of an assessment on an equitable basis will receive favorable ac- tion at the hands of the voters.

Arrangements are being made for an industrial exhibit at the county fair next September. No doubt an exhibit such as planned will be a revelation as to the variety of products turned out In Norwich, Secretary O'Rourke said after the meeting. The last exhibit of this kind held in Norwich took place at the armory ten years ago. The establishment of 2 new boat line from this city to Watch Hill and Block Island came up for -discussion. The di- rectors voted their full co-operation in the movement. It is felt that this will ‘provide an excellent means of recration for the public of Norwich. If the new boat line is estahshed it is possible that the :namber will hola an outing at Block Islaid this sumpcr. The plan includes the chartering of *hc steamer for the day and a heon at one of the island hotels.

There is such a markad difference in origin and training between the two young ladies who thave been appointed to represent Connecticut at the Foun- tainbleu School of Music at Paris this summer that it is not unfair to mention the first of them as a characteristic product of this state. Miss Johnson of Hartford was born in New York and ed- ucated mainly in its schools. Miss Hig- gins of Norwich was born in that city, educated in its common schools and in the famous Nerwich Free Academy, and graduated from the Connecticut College for Women at New London. There are other features of Miss Hig- gins’ character and attainments which i should attract Conmnecticut -attention. She present: a rather rare combination of musical and practical liter- ty and ambition. In the Con- necticut college she won and held for each of the four years the Theodore Bod- enwein prize for excellence in journal- ism. This also has a sugeestion for the pride of Connecticut, in its reminder of a man who has made his way from the hottom of the mewspaper business to be one of the highly successful publishers of the state, and done it by .his own in- dustry and ability. He couldn’t have done a nobler thing than the encourage- ment of the sort of girl who held his prize for four years, and now gets first fappointment as Connecticut’s interna- tional music representative. This is the sort of genius which Con- necticut can produce under the spur of ambition. This suggests the possibill- ties of the state. That is why Connec- ticut can take pride in such showing without doing itself harm.—New Haven Register. not exactly Only one The wise man seeks a woman with an independent fortune rather than a for- tune with an independent woman at- tached.
