of the Capital Traction company de-
livered the principal address. while ].
T Moffett, superintendent of transpor-
tation of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company, also spoke. Clifford
X Bergman gave a chalk talk, which
kept the audience laughing throughout.
Frank Dougherty. Lee Wilkinson and
T. F. Hill in vocal solos, with Paul
Proctor and Mr.. Ashley at the piano.
provided the musical entertainment.
The entertainment committee provided
a buffet luncheon. consisting OF fried
oysters and the usual accofnpaniments.
President Hamilton referred to state
ments which he had made at the or
ganization of the section a year ago,
and declared that the benefits which
he had predicted would result from
such an association of the officials and
employees of the company were being
realized. But do not think that be-
cause you have had a successful year
your work is finished" he said. 1T has
scarcely begun. Increase your num-
bers; increase your times of meeting:
promote constantly an interchange of
ideas that our knowledge may become
common property"
