That their efforts have been crown ed with a large degree of success la attested by the many things that have been accomplished during the paat 1 1 months. Whtlo It la true that no new factories have been added. yet the direction of the' year's activ ities has taken a different course, working, however, toward prosperity and a higher cltlrenship. No new business concerns have been added by the board, but they have taken a high hand In almost everything else. It was indirectly through the board of trade that an interchanging switch is to be built between the Pennsylvania and B. & O. lines. The new switch will mean the saving of much money to the business men of Wooster, to say nothing of the convenience.

O. line, yet it Is a fact that the legal committee of the board had taken up the matter with Co lumbus authorities.
