LOOKING TO PARIS.
Board of Trade is Trying to Stir Up
Interest in the Exposition.

Board of Trade is Trying to Stir Up
Interest in the Exposition.
The Board of Trade has it's monthly
meeting at it's rooms on Foster street
Thursday evening Notices have been
sent out to members by Secretary
Charles E. Squier, and large attend
ance is desired, as many matters of
Importance are to come up for action.
The Worcester Board of Trade, in
common with like bodies all over the
country, is out for big American ex-
hibit at the Paris exposition. In no
way, it is believed, can the power and
greatness of America be better brought
home to the people of European coun-
tries than through fine exhibition.
The American Steel and Wire com
pany is going to have a big and varied
exhibit, and yesterday W. P. Palmer,
general manager, c. t. Boynton, gen
eral sales agent, and A. N. Crane, as
sistant sales gent, were in the city
consulting P. w. Moen in relation to the
plans. They were the guests of Mr.
Moen at the Worcester club.
The Board of Trade has received as
surance that other firms are deeply in
terested and will surely have exhibits.
1t is planned to make the exhibit as
varied as the industries of Worcester,
with view to proving the claim OF
the city to be the greatest manufac-
turing city of it's size on the planet.

men, whose average age is less than
IS years, are putting their parents or
those upon whom they are dependent,
to considerable expense on top of the
banquets of the debating clubs, and
suggest that the price of the banquet
tickets be limited to SIPS, and that to-
bacco be eliminated from the bill of
fare. Certain members of the class say
they will not accede to the conditions
imposed by the committee, and will
hold the banquet whether the commit
tee consents or not.
1t has been customary to obtain the
consent of the committee when the
school has contemplated anything of a
special nature, and members of the
committee feel that they will be backed
up by the fathers and mothers and cit
liens generally in the stand they have
taken in the matter.
Another thing suggested was that the
annual rumpus caused by attempts to
kidnap the postmaster or other class
officers be dispensed with. The seniors
fail to see how they can control the
actions of the younger class men in
this respect. The matter will, in minds
of the committeeman, adjust itself
within short time.

WAGES ARE HIGH HERE.
Secretary Squer Explains Why There
is No Advance in Worcester.

Secretary Charles E. Squier of the
Board of Trade, in commenting upon
the recent increase in wages that have
gone into effect in Fall River and New
Bedford, said yesterday that Worces-
ter has no factory elements that will
compare with those of the mill cities
Here a high standard of skill is de-
man6ed by employers, and good wages
are paid. 1t is this reason, he said, that
accounts for the fact that Worcester
wages have not gone up like those OF
Fall River and New Bedford. Wages
are already a great deal higher here.
