Reports were received on the building of the German cottage at Settlers Village at meeting of the local German-American asso- citation last night in Concordia hall. Fourteen local German american societies were represented at the gathering. The report showed that over $500 YVES collected, more than enough to pay the cost of erecting the cottage.
 The group voted to have a study made of the history of the Germans in Waterbury. It has been generally agreed that Valentine Bohl was the first German settler but varying reports last night caused the group to make a study of the city's his- tory to settle the question indefi- nitely.
 A long discussion followed on the attitude of the delegates in en- dorsing candidates representing the German-American groups who are

 The other call brought flremen to the building at Harrison avenue and Leavenworth street, formerly the Warburton hotel. A watchman in a nearby garage had seen a tar mop left in pail of tar flare up. The fire was quelled in short order.

Although the bylaws of the or ganiZation do not permit the off cial endorsement of any member but it was felt that the German Americans should be represented on the tickets of the various parties and that the individual members should work for the representation of the German-American groups on either political party, outside of the organization. The name of a prominent German resident was very favorably received by the members but they felt that they did not wish to take action against the bylaws and as the delegates were not authorized to act upon the matter it was laid over until the next meeting.

Don "Knobby" Walsh and two friends, whose names your writer could not obtain provided the residents and visitors of Bayvew Sunday with quite bit of amusement when the trio marched up and down the beach and even went go in swimming in three very classy 1898 model bathing suits The suits reaching far down to the lads knees and then and having just loads and loads of space between their texture and the wearers bodies presented indeed udicrous sight, but the boys figured anything for little fun. And therein lies the tale Some practical okester while the trio were very busy en- ragged towing the suits around after them in the water slipped our hero Mr. Walshs suit off him. When Knob by discovered his loss you imagine his lack of poise his awkward demeanor all brought about by his dltfl- culties However, the situation well in hand for quick flash deprived hero hopped into the suit shared by of his companions and the two natators emerged from the water sufficiently clad in the one bath ing suit and proceeding la Siamese twins.

CLUB IS SEEKING
 IMPROVEMENTS
Sidewalk Desired Around Community House; Ball
 Committee to Meet
WASHINGTON HILL

The first fall meeting of the Washington Park Community club will he held Thursday night at the community house and all resi- dents of the hill whether or not they are members of the organ ization are invited to attend the meeting. Several important mat ters are to come up at the meet ing, the most important one to be the naming of a delegation to see the mayor and park depart ment on the naming of a police man to do duty at the community house during the winter months.
 Last year the club on several occasions asked that a policeman be placed on duty at the park but were informed that there was no appropriations for naming of the cop and when the club finally did deciie to go to the park board in body the officer was placed on duty shortly before the club was to go to the city hall. It is ex- pected that at tomorrow nights meeting the members will decide to go to the. park board as soon as possible and not let the matter finger on as was the case last year. Another important subject which is sure to be called to the atten- tion of the members of the club is the need of sidewalk in front of the community house and also walks leading to the rear of the building. The walk in front of the new building is in terrible shape at present due to the heavy rain fall and despite the efforts of MT. Single, the caretaker, who has been filling ir the washouts with sand after every rainstorm, still the condition calls for immediate ac- tion. Last spring when the ground began to thaw out the mud at the side of the community house was so deep that it wa snecessary to enter the building from the front entrance as there were no walks available to go around to the rear entrance which is now always used to enter and leave the building.
 After the regular meeting tomor- row night there will be meeting of the committee which is in charge of the second annual ball which the club will hold October 4 at the community house.
 Stan To Meet
 There will be meeting of the staff of the Voice of the Hill, the community clubs newspaper, to- morrow evening at the community house. Plans for the issuance of the October issue will be made.

YESTERDAY THERE WERE
 APPLE BLOSSOMS
BY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

YESTERDAY THERE WERE
 APPLE BLOSSOMS Just yesterday it seems, there were apple blossoms, Dazzling white in the bright suns glow; Today ripe apples hanging there Or piled up in neat row upon row. The orchards give forth pungent odor Of ripening fruit on the trees, . McIntoshes, windfals, and all the rest, Some drop at the hint of breeze. Just yesterday, it seems, there apple blossoms In the lovely Spring month of May; Today ripe apples are hanging there In the colder brightness of September day.
