DARTMOUTH CLUB OF ESSEX COUNTY, NEW JERSEY

On the evening of Jan. 2, there was formed in Newark, N. J., an association to be known as "The Dartmouth Club of Essex County." The occasion was a banquet, held at the Washington, which had been arranged by a committee from the recently formed undergraduate organization, "The Dartmouth Club of the Oranges." There were present about forty Dartmouth men, graduates and undergraduates. The speakers were D. C. Bliss '92, of Montclair, Rev. H. J. Chidley '06, of East Orange, W. M. Ross '09, of Hanover, and Prof. C. H. Page of the College faculty.

The purpose of the new organization is to promote the interests of Dartmouth in this locality, where the college competition is especially high and Dartmouth none too well known. A further purpose is, of course, that of social intercourse.

The following officers of the club were chosen: President, Rev. Howard J. Chidley '06; vice-presidents, Don C. Bliss '92, Francis J. Urquhart '87, Thos. Welles '17; treasurer, Philip Chase '07; secretary, George W. Putnam '05.
