ported the serious prevalence of the

opening of mild weather brought new
broods. In ma parts of the county
the wheat straw is tipping over large
areas.

Who Is Going to Run the Chamber of Commerce?
CHAMBER coMMERCE CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE

uninhuenced by any other consideration than merit.
 This is democracy reduced to its sim plest form. Fitness, in the opinion of
 his fellow citizers, will alone determine whether member shall hold office. Abil-
 ity and willingness to serve his commu- nifty will alone keep a man in office once
 he has been elected to it, for it is ap- parent that any director who fails 10 measure up 10 the expectations of his fellow members will not be reelected. How the committees will be chosen was explained in the answer to the
 question of what the Norwich Chamber
 of Commerce can do.
 Under the modern plan the member s
 forum will be an important feature of the expanded Norwich Chamber of Com merce.
 It will be the medium of communica-
 ton between the officers and the direc- tors and the membership. It will ire
 quently hold luncheons and meetings ringing together the membership to in vite the presentation and discussion of new projects It will check up the pro-
 gress of the work of the committee IL will have speakers on important sub jects to assist the community in the so-
 lution of it's problems. It will be dy-
 namo which will give motion and action to the chamber of commerce as an or ganization.
 The members forum organization is
 so planned that it reaches by distinct
 groups the individual members and is thoroughly alive to the thought and pulse of the membership as a whole It is an organization within an organiza- tion and is responsible for the efficien- cy of the association and its financial standing. It is needless to say that the members forum is made up of all the most progressive and ready workers in the organizations.
 The whole purpose of the chamber of commerce, first and last is to bring to- gether the most responsible and capa-
 6le men and women of the city and keep
 them at work for the good of the city. Through frequent social meetings the acquaintance of each individual member is broadened, friendships are established and there grows up a confidence and
 optimism which are the two intangible hut compelling forces which carry a community forward

FOUND GAS LEAK WITH
 MATCH; FIRE FOLLOWED

Leaky gas after employees of the city gas department had been at work blow ing out the pipes at the City Lunch. lt- 1s Broadway, furnished the material for an explosion and fire in the kitchen there Tuesday night just after 6 o'clock. Homer Fraser. one of the proprietors, furnished the flame when he flashed a lighted match around the gas range where he thought the leak was, iSit the leak apparently came from joints in the pipes under the floor. where there was body of escaping gas that ignited. The firemen had 10 chon up a small portion of the floor to get at the blaze but tho damage was slight. although the trou- ble caused great inconvenience to tho restaurant.
 According to Mir. Fraser and Jerry Reavenell, proprietors of the restau rant, they had had men from the city gas department working there during the day, and after the workmen lef' l the oder of gas was very strong. Johr White a dishwssher in the kitchen. wal so affected by it that he had to give uI work and go home. The restaurant meI consider it is very fortunate that thei kitchen had good overhead ventilation which probably saved them from sucl serious explosion as would have re suited if the gas had accumulated in small, poorly ventilated room.

Answering the third of series of five questions most often asked during a chamber of commerce reorganization campaign.
 Who is going to run the Norwich Chamber of Commerce?
 The members are going to run it. In the modern civic-comme rcial organiza- tion, which is what Norwich is going to have at the end of the campaign, every member is on an equal footing. Each pays the same dues, each has one vote only each has the right to nominate for office, each has as loud a voice as any other in the making of the program of work and each will be called upon to ex- ercise all these rights.
 Under the old plan, nominations were made by jcommittees, committees were named by the president alone or in con sutation with the secretary. and quite often the program of work. if there was one. was built by one or two individuals Naturally thi is system led to one n1an control or control by a small group. The member who felt that he was one of the obscure majority was too indifferent tc come out of the background and pres ently after joining the organization. he substantially withdrew and in a year or 
 interested
 The expanded Norwich Chamber oi Commerce will be conducted along the new plan-again the boiled-down result of dozens of experiments-of insisting that the members, all the members, shall say who shall hold office and be direc- tors and what blanks shall compose the platform or program of work.
 It is fundamental principle of the expansion campaign that the full mem bership shall direct the thought and life of the organization.
 When the election of the new directors and officers takes place new method will be used. The election machinery is of the simplest character. Each mem ber will be provided with ballot bear ing the name of every member so ar ranged that he may vote for whom he chooses. A complete printed list of the membership will be a part of the ballot The men elected to the board of direc- tors will be the ones receiving the larg est number of votes, cast secretly and

that s25 is too much, but tell you, gem tlemen, would rather pay s25 for some thing than s6 for nothing.
 The Age of Cooperation.
 The final speaker of the evening was David c. Addie, former assistant sec retary of the chamber of commerce at Minneapolis Minn. His topic was The Chamber of Commerce, Peculiar Insti- tuition. In part he spoke as follows Norwich, like all other cities, needs cooperation. Nothing can be accomplish ed unless men work together. The cham Der of commerce is a distinctive orgaIS- zation, found only in America. It is an opportunity to think and live for Nor wich. Just to the extent you do that, you will be successful.
 1 Organization through the chamber of commerce is necessary because we are l living in an age when tremendous things are being done We must visualize the | world that is to be. The conditions chal- | lenge the faith of men.
 l The molding of opinion counts tre-
 mendously. The nineteenth century was
 an age of business for business sake | The 2eth century will be an age when
 business men are going to organize their l thoughts along a higher level and yet bt better business men. The old policy oi dog eat dog" has had it's day. We have gradually come to the principle of coop l erstion in the interest of all.
 Just as you serve your city, so arr you the man Norwich has the right tC expect you to be. Leaders are born il service. Norwich is bigger than any O us. Our land and business values ar'
 worth something not because of any thing we have done, but because of wha somebody else before us has done. Gu city challenges us to get into the gam
 with all our strength.
 There are three main lines of endea
 vor want to touch upon. The first i business activities. Isolation is impos Il sible nowadays. All must work togeth fer.
 Second, municipal affairs where "
 cooperate to improve our system of cit
 government and benefit by the experi ence of other cities. Third, civic affair ; when men and women work together . side by side for the civic betterment c the community.
 The chamber of commerce must hay directing force. It must build on ideali : because after all. ideals count mos America is a series of communities. Think. feel and live for Norwich bt : cause Norwich is you.
