 Discussion Ove~ Bryan
 pr. o. T. Dozier moved that a special committee of seven be appointed to go to Jacksonville and invite William J. Bryan to be present at the jubilee. Some discus sion followed concerning the propfety of this. as no special committees had been ap- pointed to invite other distinguished Amer jeans. not even the president Finally it was decided to leave the whole matter Of invitations to the committee on invitations, with the understanding that if a special committee was sent to Washington to invite the president that one should also be sent to Jacksonville to invite Mir. Bryan.
 The time for holding the jubilee was then discussed at some length. The under standing was that it should be held some time during the last half of October, the exact date being left to the arrangement committee. In selecting the time the com mittee will consider the convenience of the distinguished visitors who will be present.
 On motion of MT. Roundtree, President B. Steiner, of the Commercial club. was made a member eK-officio of all the com mittees.
 Messrs Roundtree, Gibson, Tomlinson, Steiner and Skaggs were appointed con- mittee to select an executive committee of the whole movement The following was the committee. selected: J. A. Roundtree, chairman; Robert J. Lowe, F. V. Evans, B. B. Conner, T. H. Aldrich, W. N. Ma lone. John w. O'Neal and B. F. Roden.
 There seemed to be some little misun- derstanding as to whether the organization under which the meeting had been work ing was only temporary or not It was voted that the organization with MT. Roundtree as chairman and J.- B Gibson as secretary should be made permanent.
 The arrangement and invitation commit tees were called to meet tonight at 5 o'clock at the club rooms. at which time they will elect their chairmen and proceed with thier business.
