Dear Members and Friends: With the advent of spring, work will progress on the Rogers house. We expect to get under way with a bang! Plans call for the building of a two-flue brick chimney, with a living room fireplace, building of which to start in a couple of weeks. At last the roof of the house will be closed in. Since the cost of the chimney will be $1100.00, our treasury will need help. May we remind you, if you haven' t paid your dues, please, won't you do it now? NOTICE: At this meeting we will auction off the oil painting of The Mohegan Congregatiaiial'IQhnhch. The picture is 18 by 24 inches, and was painted by Dr. Bellos. The church was built in 1835. This would make a nice addition to any home, besides being part of local history. A yard and bake sale is planned for May 17th, at The Town Hall, starting at 10 A.M. till ? We will need all the pies, cakes, cupcakes and goodies we can get, also yard sale items, so when spring cleaning gets under way, be sure to save your trash and treasures for the yard sale. If you didn' t attend the anniversary meeting in January, you missed a very enlightening demonstration of furniture and metal refinishing by Tom West of The Montville Furniture Stripping & Metal Polishing Co. He was most gracious in answering all questions relative to all methods of refinishing wood and metal. The Society wishes to thank him most cordially. Andy Aldrich will show slides of historic Williamsburg and Sturbridge Village at the meeting and refreshments will be served. Please plan to attend. June R. Demler Corresp. Sec 'y
