AS we reach the final sum-
ming up of the year 1913 I be-
tieve it can be said in truth that
Norwich has proven herself a
city of remarkable stability and
resources, in the face of an I'M
precedented series of discour-
agements during the year just
closing. To the character, intel
ligence. thrift and common sense
Of our people alone can this be
attributed and after all is it not
true that calm, thoughtful and
deliberate judgment have won

1t would be the height of hypo-
crisy for anyone to pretend that
the future promised immediate
improvement in general business,
but Norwich has withstood her
misfortunes very well and we
are bound to feel a gradual and
steady improvement during the
coming year 1914.
We are going through a period
of readjustment such as has sell
dom been experienced in the his
