BOARD OF TRADE PROSPECTS.

DC~hAtC VI iiNEltpiN ltCCl IN -
The tentative plans laid last night to
bring the Barre Board of Trade back to
it's former activity should appeal to
every person interested in the progress
of this community. The Board of Trade
has done some very commendable work
for Barre in recent years and can point to
some signal triumphs of concerted effort
Its record is far too good to be allowed
to sink into insigniticance for any reason
whatever. Moreover, there is much that
an active organization of this sort can
do, which does not fall within the dis
tinct provinces of three or more other
organizations in town to do The mer-
chants association has some special
problems to solve; the manufacturers
association has also, and so has the
quarry owners association; but they
collectively have problems which can
best be solved by an organization which
embraces all. That organization is the
Board of Trade. There is plenty of work /
for this more inclusive body to perform.
Hence there is need for refrigeration Of /
the organization. When the adjourned |
annual meeting is called together at the
rooms next Wednesday
evening, April 26, there should be a
large and representative attendance of
men, all of whom should be ready to
END their cooperation in worthy com
munity effort. Everybody get behind
and push!

Among the varied activities of the
Barre Woman's club is the art exhibit
which is to be held in Rowland hall
Thursday afternoon and evening of this
week. This is somewhat out of the usual
line of work done by this organization
but the nature of it is such as to appeal
to large number Of people. As the ex-
hibit is open to the public and at no
charge whatever, there should be many
people to take advantage of the oppor.
tunities presented there.
