G. G. Clark spent a day at the Eastern States Exhibition in Springfield, Mass., in October. With Ned Warren ’Ol, he examined the New Hampshire state exhibit, under the personal es- cort of Gov.

In addition to the wives of the men in town also there were present Mrs. Gan- non, Mrs. Hawkes, Mrs. Johnson, and Mrs. Parker. And there were two guests, Mr. C. W. Robie and Mr. C. C. Fifield.
