many other cities, an "out thel building work" has been done inFadus- | trial plants. There is a demahd for such a service in Norwich, anh it lsi hoped that during the coninf year. some plans may be formulatfd herei for such a purpose.
 Changes in Force.
 There have been some cl,anges- in our paid official force during the past year. MT. Ely, who had seryfd most efficiently as boys secretary for six years, retired on July 1 to inter the overseas service. Because offthe draft however, he was obliged to change his training camp at Columbia uniTersi training camp at Colunmbia universi- ty. His place for the year was taken by Leon A. Dean. MT. Rindhard our, assistant secretary. is to pe particu- larly commended for the splendid ser vice he has rendered to the enlisted men. He has been most faithful in his duties and his influence has been far reaching. For the second season John M. Swahn has been in charge of the gymnasium. and the wort' of the past year has been even more satisfactory than that Of tho preceding year. if that be possible.
 It is a source of much qualification that we have been able ito retain the services of General Secretary Hill. for under his wise guidance and selfsac- rificing labors. the greatly enlarged work of the past year has been so successfully carried on It is of par ticuIar value to an association to re- tain the services of it's chief official over period of years, and I trust we may be able to keen Mir. Hill as our fny come.
 The annual campaign for funds to meet the current expenses for the year ending April 20. 1929, will be conduct ed during the week of June 2-9. The association is most grateful to all it's many friends for their financial as- Sistance. and I beFneak from them a continuance of their interest and sup port during the coming campaign week
 The Woman's Auxiliary. cannot speak too highly of the
 work of the Won!an's auxiliary. Thai
 which has been done during the past year surpasses the result of any sim liar period in it's history. The wo- men have been loyal to the associa- tion work in every particular and their lahors have been fully appre. ciated
 As ever. the press of the city has rendered a most helpful service, an( the great amount of publicity whnl /, has been so cheerfully given has mad 1 possible wider knowledge of the worl 1 of the association than could have 1 been secured in any other manner 1 The coming year will have it's npv i problems, asi well as old ones bat tn n Itfs N-o11 I.l f,f T for ] are counting upon your continued co i opera ton sd support.
 l Relying upon the sustaining powe i which cones from our one great com l mon Lord and. Master. we purpose f i enter anGhnr rear of service for tn 1 mon and boys of Norwich. without re gard to position, creed. or national i ity.
