Series of Monthly Din
ners Is Planned by the
Chamber of Commerce

Laying preliminary plans for a series
of informal monthly dinners at which
propositions can be discussed for the
general advancement and welfare of the
city was the chief work of the board of
Directors of the Waterville Chamber of
Commerce which met Monday evening
at the office of Sec. ". H. X. Abbott.
The idea of having an inexpensive dinner
at these gatherings was advanced solely
with the end in view of making them
more attractive. Plans for civic indus
trial and moral advancement could find
expression at these gatherings and would
probably result in their being carried
into execution in some form or other.
1t is the intention to secure speakers of
note from different parts OF the State to
address the gatherings. October will
undoubtedly be the first month to see
one of the meetings.
