Preliminary work for the part they are to play in making a grand sue cess of Merchants week here from April 18th te 18th was discussed on Thursday evening at a committee meeting held by Norwich council, No. ger, United Commercial Travellers.
 One of the first things decided upon was a name for the big feature which they intend te conduct and they de- diced that the best and most descrip- tive title that could be given it was the Norwich Industrial and Good Home Exposition. As an indication that they intend to spare no effort to make this the banner event in any thing of the kind that has been seen around here and truly an attraction that will bring people to Norwich, they have engaged F. M. Prescott. of Nal den, Mass, to have it ih charge. He has national reputation for conduct

tended that he shall outshine himseH for the benefit of Norwich Merchants week in which the Commercial Travel CTS are cooperating with the Board ot Trade.
 The lines that are to be mapped out for the Norwich Industrial and Good Home Exposition are to be little different, a little bigger, little better, and little handsomer than anything that the city has seen and will be formulated with 8 particular intent to make it a handsome and artistic feature that cannot fall to ap- peal to those who come here. As sug- sested by the name it will give oppor- tinity for displays of a large variety, taking in both the merchants and the industrial concerns of Norwich With in a few days the work will begin to- wards arranging for the attractions that will be presented at the eNposi- tien.
