DANIEL.sON

Grant Haywood, government inspec- tor of cloth in the mills of this town. has organized boys club. to be known as the DanieIson Athletic club. He already has about forty paid sub- scriptions as charter members. This town has no inducements for the young men. It has noe place for them to go on cold winter evenings and stormy days. yet the public wonders why so many of our young men loaf about the streets and visit the pool reoms and other places. The organ izfng committee has already obtained rooms which are to be furnished suit ably as soon as possible. A reading room, which will contain all the latest publications, as well as a circulating library, will be part of the programme. A music room will also be installed. which will include a player piano and Victrola. Social affairs are to be given throughout the winter months and all ready a minstrel show is under con- struction. Four basketball teams art to be trained and as there is much good material to pick from it is in- tended to defeat all corners in the line. Track teams. and swimming reams are to be organized. The support of the townspeople ought to be given to this worthy cause. The club will be well represented at the field day to be held at Connecticut Mills Labor Day.
