J 18-17 New Era of Achievement Pre dicted by President Pelton Tho New Britain chamber of cojn nieroo held its annual meeting and banquet last, evening in the banquet hall at. the V. M . C. A. President K. W. Pelt on presided. A large per f outage of the membership was pres ent, at the meeting. Secretary L. A. Spraguc read his annual report of th work accomplished during: the past yea r. lie was followed by Ernest W. Christ who urged the members to do their utmost to support the United AVar AVork campaign. Five Directors Elected. Five directors were elected to hold office for three years. They are: George T. Kimball, representing ' the manufacturers; Rev. Samuel Sutcliffe, representing the. professional men; A. A. Mills, representing- the merchants and business men; John Ar. Lockett. from the general membership; and Frank M. Holmes. The 'directors will hold a meeting- soon to elect officers. President Makes Kepoi-t. President F. W. .Pelton then read his report which remarked that the New Britain Chamber of Commerce closed its fourth year's work last month, after the most unsettled year that the Chamber has experienced, but. it looks forward to a more successful year than ever because of the signing of the armistice and cessation of hos tilities. Th position of secretary of the Chamber has been very successfully filled by L. ,A. Sprague, who by his sincerity and straightforwardness has won a place in the hearts of mer chants in this city. Miss Mary Cnrtin also deserved a word of praise for her work during- the months between July, 1 91 7, and April, 191S. She is still with the chamber as Mr. Spragnje's assist ant. Her work during- the months in which. the chamber was without a cecretary was Ihe only thing that kept the organization in exist ence. A full time superintendent has been engaged for the Americanization work and the city is financing- the work. It is pleasing to know that. Nw Britain is,, foremost among all the cities of Connecticut in this work. The New Britain war gardens were very successful this year. Herbert Camp was chairman of the commit tee and Mr. Holmquist was superin tendent of the gardens. The number of gardens was increased this year from 700 to 1 250. Factory Men IIclp Nursery. The support of the factories was se cured in founding a day nursery. New Britain now has a modern day nurs ery, an experienced trained nurse, Mrs. Francis P. O'Brien of Vine street at the head of the. work, and Mrs. John II. Kirkham is general chairman of the day nursery committee. Mr. Pelton made a renewed appeal for more members and a closer inter est in the work of the Chamber of Commerce. After the dinner Francis P. O'Brien gave an address on the work of the New Britain Americanization bureau. I Marshal Foeh directed the German armistice representatives to take the Chimay-Fourmies-La Capelle-Guise road (towns underlined.) The place of the parley was not made public. Meanwhile, the British and French continue to pursue the foe in the di rection of the. arrows, while tho American First Army has taken the shaded area west of the Mouse river, including part of the Sedan. " Rather Chic This aerial photograph taken by a British Royal Air Force Pilot, shows a British hospital in France, shortly after it. was bombed by a squadron of enemy aircraft. The remains of four huts in which helpless men were blown to bits, are plainly shown in the foreground. Fourteen largo Red Cross signs distinctly painted on other huts, refute any claim of a mistake.
