The day was raw and attendance was smallei than expected. This was an afternoon and eve- ning event with supper and spe- cial entertainment.

Morse, president of Mutual said the directors were ready to disband and merge with the assodation. Directors of the Association have appointed a mar- keting committee. Association Sec- retary Gilbert T. Beaton said the Association by-laws authorized such a committee but he thought it desirable the members vote their approval, which was done. On the 28th a special meeting of Mutual members was held at Wareham town hall on call of Secretary Chester Robbins to confirm the merger. It was decided that one strong organization would be bet- ter than two less strong. Arthur Handy, vice president of the Association presided at the business meeting in the absence of president Frank P. Crandon, who at the time was in Arizona, visiting his daughter.
