clares For Helping Home misunderstanding for q
White Way Through Franklin Square and Main Street

Fer It's first business meeting this
year under its new board of officers
Thursday evening at the Buckingham
Memorial, the Norwich Business Mems
association had before it number of
matters of Importance to the business
life of the city. President Charles s.
Faircleugh presided.
Advertising Norwich was provided
for by several plans which it was
shown the proper committee was car
rying out or had in preparation. En-
velopes of the large size generally used
by business men have been printed for
sale at cost to the members of the
association, the envelopes containing a
cut of Bankers row." on Shetueket
street with statement showing
through figures of money on deposit
the Importance of Norwich as a bank
ing center. The association also has a
small circular cut which it loans to
members for use on stationery, the cut
containing q red flag within a circle,
the flag bearing the words Norwich is
on the Boom" and around the circle
are shown the population figures of
2s,226 for 1910 and the expected popu-
lation Of $4,000 for 1920. The associa-
ton is also preparing an advertising
circular which members are to use in
their mail, showing on it statistics as
to mail facilities, railroads, schools,
churches, banks, population, manufac-
lures and property valuation. In this
connection also the association intends
to take up the matter of urging that
all Norwich merchants and manufac-
turers, as some do already, make a
practice of printing on their regular
stationery some recommendation of the

ELKs' GERMAN NIGHT.
Norwich Lodge Members Feast Upon
Fare Of the FatherIand.

There was a big attendance at the
German festivities at the Elks' home

It was generally conceded that the
event went far ahead of any social SEES

success attained by the best efforts OF
their German brothers.
