 OanIeison Men to Be Invited.
 An invitation is to be sent to the Danielson Business Mems association to send representatives here on the evening of February to the meeting at which the formation of a Building and Loan association is to be discuss ed.
 It is felt by some local men engaged in forwarding the movement for the new, association that Danielson men may be interested in coming into the both as investors and It is also believed that some plan might be worked out under which the two towns could use the same association to meet conditions now confronting them. Danielson wants new. houses as badly as does Putnam This being true, 1t is held, there might be advantage in working through one building and loan asso- ciation rather than two.
 In any event. the Danielson busi- ness men would certainly be interest," ed in what the speakers who are com ing here will have to say about build ing and loan associations and how they are successfully conducted in va rious cities in Connecticut and else where outside of the state.
