PILGRIM BROTHERS \ EAT AND LISTEN
Interesting Talk on Business Develop
 ment and Manufacture by Mir. Green of New Milford.

The Pilgrim Brotherhood's April meeting, last Friday evening, was we'll attended by not only members of the Brotherhood. bat others, including members of the Business Mems Association and invited guests. The formal talk by MT. William G. Green, of New Milford, on the subject of "BuSiness Development along Manufac- turing Lines." It was well-considered, thoughtful and valuable address, full of helpful suggestions and historical and industrial facts bearing upon the subject of business development, especially along the line of manufacturing, and was listened to with intense interest by the assemblage. '
 MT. Green is a pleasing speaker, a gentleman of agreeable personality, man. ifestlY sincere in his enthusiastic study of the problems that confront the busi- ness interests of the small towns. and exceptionally capable of expressing him self clearly and intelligibly upon that, or any other subject. He interspersed his remarks with numerous anecdotes and witty allusions, and altogether not only made most favorable impression upon his listeners, but gave them something to think about, and incidentally dropped a few hints that will probably be utilized in future plans of the Canaan Business Mems Association. It is not unlikely that an effort will be made, at some future function of the Business Mems Association, to secure the services of MT. Green for an address along similar lines to that of Friday evening, as President Lyles, of the Association, and member of the Brotherhood as we'll, was deeply interested in MT. Greens talk.
 At the close of hls talk MT. Green answered numerous questions pro- pounded by different individuals, and elucidated several points touched upon in his address. He is secretary of the thew enterprises committee" of the New Milford Industrial Club, which corresponds to our Business Mems Association, and is admirable qualified as an authority on that feature of the problem of industrial development.
 At the close of MT. Greens talk an appetizing buffet lunch was served. which was provided by Caterer Leach, consisting of sandwiches of several kinds, doughnuts, coffee, and etc. Rev. Mr. Gillette, under whose supervision the affair was ''pulled off," was master of ceremonies, and made everybody feel at homo and at ease. He performed equally well as presiding officer, head waiter, reception committee-in fact in every capacity in which the exigencies of the occasion placed him, and made it point to see that everybody had a good time.'
 A committee of three. consisting of A A. Hubbard, George Mather and Judge George w.. Ford, was appointed to arrange for the brotherhood supper, May 19, when the Hon, George B. Chandler of Rocky Hill will deliver an address. It is proposed to make this affair specially attractive and an opportunity given to as many gentle men as can be accommodated to hear the distinguished orator. It has been suggested that the ladies of the church be allowed to get up and serve the supper, which has heretofore been done entirely by the mere men of the Brother hood.
