 I The executive council of the Forest
 CTS of America held their regular quar terly meeting in this city last Saturday
 Among other business transacted was ] the making of arrangements for the
 biennial convention of the order, whicI
 was to have taken place in this city or the second Wednesday in May, 1903 On account of the limited hotel accom- modation at present to be had in this
 City large majority of the courts haC notified the grand secretary that il their opinion it would be impracticablt to hold the convention here. For this
 reason it was voted to hold the conven
 ton in the city of New Britain, the courts of that city having sent an in ] vitation to the council to do so, pro
 vided it was found impracticable tt
 hold it in Waterbury. This mean;
 quite a loss to our city, as there will bt
 about $50 people in attendance, mos 1 of whom would have spent three days here. However, there is no doubt bu
 what the next convention will be helG
 here as Waterbury is by far the mos
 important city in the state as regards | the Foresters of America. the member
 ship here being nearly twice as large
 as that of any other city in Connecti
 cut. Another matter of interest trans
 acted at the meeting was the awarding
 of an American flag to Court Cham | plain of this city for having made tho l largest increase in membership durins I the last six months.
