Referring to the completion of 40 years’ activity by the Arion club, of which Dr. Jules Jordan, a native of Wilimantic, has been director from its organization, the Providence Journal says editorially: There would be general regret if last night's concert of the Arion club should actually ‘turn out to be the final one of the organization. For 40 years the club has upheld the best traditions of choral music in Providence, and although the and more than should be put upon tha shoulders of any one man, it seems as it there ought to be enough sentiment in the' community and enough genuine interest in good singing, to insure its permanence, 1 In the forty years of its history it has given 150 concerts. Among the artists who have sung with it are some of the best known of the last and present gen- erations. It has trained many local voices, inciuding some that have atained to more than a neighborhood fame. A club with so lonerable a record, a record of 40 years under a single director, Dr. Jules Jordun, micht properly look forward to 40 ars mote of pleasurable and profitable cxistence. - { A meeting of merchants Interested in Willimantie Dollar day was held Wednes- day morning at 10 o'elock at the Chamber of Commerce rooms.
