The association was fortunate In be- Ing able to have at tho meeting Clar- ence l.. Clark, president of the West Haven association. Prof. J. c. Tracy, formerly president of the West End association and Felix Chilllngworth. its present president. These gentlemen gave a synopsis of the work that has been accomplished by their respective associations and spoke also along the lines of policies that might possibly be pursued by them In the future, and from the remarks of these gentlemen the field to work In and the results that may be obtained can scarcely be overestimated.
 As to our own association, we feel that 1t is well started und that the ul- innate results will be such as will make our village one of the beauty spots in this section of New England. All the association asks is the hearty cooper ation of every man, woman, and child in the maintaining of cleanliness and the improving of unsightly spots in our village, and if such cooperation is re- ceived the results cannot but be great and far-reaching.
 After the remarks by these gentle men, the question of entertaining the Governors Foot Guard together with the governor and mayor was taken up. By a previous vote the association ex- tended an invitation 10 this organiza- ton to spend their field day, May 20, ,.itl, ,,e tba oocantapco of Uhich tue deem an extreme honor, and can only show our intense appreciation of this honor by giving this organization such q hearty welcome and pleasura ble day as will make them feel that it was good to be with us,
