ing into consideration that during the
past year we cleaned up note of 1891,
we show a net increase in available
assets over last year of something like
$500 or $500
Our organization now numbers 200
resident members and 81 nonresident
members, showing Q decrease of II
during the past year.
One thing | would strongly recon-
mend is that each committee be APP
Qortioned its work to do, and that a
chairman of each committee call ms
associates together and talk over ways
and means of increasing interest ana
making more useful and beneficial the
board of trade by such consultations
rather than to leave all the work of
that nature to be done by two or three
of the leading officials.
[ also sincerely hope that within the
next year or two some nice, cosy rooms
can be obtained as board of trade
up in conspicuous manner some of
the leading goods manufactured in the
town of Brattleboro, and have a place
fixed up in such a manner that we can
invite our friends from out of town
70 MAKE tntlf headquarters IHeTe. II
seems to me that something along this
line would stimulate interest in our
work and be of general benefit.
1t is greatly to be hoped that we
will soon experience activities along
all business lines, so that the coming
year will be one of the best ever ex
perienced in our board of trade work

Secretary

President Durham said he had no
formal report to make, having gone
over the year in review with the secre-
tary. He said he had the pleasure of
calling the business men together nine
years ago for the organization of the
board of trade and that he had at
tended every meeting of the directors
except when obliged to be absent. He
emphasized the fact that in a commune
ty like this there were more important
things to be attended to than an eff
fort to get new industries. People are
continually saying that ''they ought to
do this and that, and he thought
that they ought to be the board of
trade. He considered that the board
had fulfilled its mission thus far. The
president believed that a wise move
was made when it was agreed not to
advertise in booklets, as he considered
that such advertising was thrown
away. Reference was made to the
growth of the spirit Of unity and co.
operation among the business men and
of the service which the board has
rendered to the community in an.sedu-
cational way. He then introduced the
speaker, President Thomas.
Vermont Historically.
As a preface to his talk President
Thomas spoke in complimentary terms
of G. c. Fits, whom he said gave the
Middlebury board of trade remarka-
bic talk on Vermont 5 industrial pos
sibihties, and of F. E. Perry, who in
troduced the state prohibition bill. He
expressed his belief III commercial or
CARNATIONS, saving that people were
disposed to underyalue the man near
by and that no organization was so
we'll fitted for bringing all classes to-
gether as a board of trade. He knew
of no town in which Vermont loyalty
was more marked than in Brattleboro
Vermont S position historically was
| then discussed, the speaker developing
his theme from a scrap Of paper in
| the historical archives of Middleburv
| college which mentioned the organiza-
| ton of the Northwest Educational So
ciety. By northwest was not meant
what we now know as the Northwest
| The Northwest then was the territory
which constitutes this state. Vermont
was the result of an economic move
ment. An economic movement brought
our fathers here from Massachusetts
and Connecticut. With the exception
of the Connecticut valley and few
other limited areas, neither Massa
chusetts nor Connecticut possessed the
fertility that Vermont possessed, and
our fathers came here for material
gain and considered this the North
west Thus Vermont was the first state
to be established away from the At
lantic seaboard and was the beginning
of the movement which has spread tc
the Pacific coast.
All this, the speaker said, has {
bearing on Vermont character. There
is something in our blood that make:
