TAILORS TO HAVE BALL
At the meeting OF the Tailors' union on
Saturday evening there were many things
TO come before the meeting that were fgll
OF interest and indicated the prosperity
which is coming to the local at this time.
For the first part Of the evening there
was nothing on but routine business con-
nected with the regular monthly meet
ing OF the body, but II later transpired
that there were several matters OF note
to come up when the new business was
put before the body.
The shop committee stated that every
thing was working for the best harmony
of the members, and conditions were far
better now than in the past. The com
mittee stated also that the membership
was increased owing To the interest being
taken in the work at the present time
by each member.
The sick committee reported that all
the members on the sick list were able TO
take care OF themselves at the present
time and the benefits were reduced.
A number Of communications were read
before the meeting and referred TO the
secretary for attention.
one OF them was Of especial interest
and related to the convention OF the inter-
national body which was voted on last
month. The communication stated that
when all the returns were i'm 1t was
found to be almost unanimous that there
be a convention held and that 1t take
place on December 9Th. The place select
ed was Bloomington, Ill.
II has been some time since there was
a convention OF the tailors unions and II
was thought that the time was ripe for
another owing chiefly 10 the fact that
several, or I'm fact, most OF the parts of
the constitution were In need of changes
TO meet the conditions that now obtained
The membership committee stated that
three new members were ready for initia-
ton and these were put through the cere-
mony.
one of the best signs OF the good stand
ing OF the local at the present time was
the fact that the body decided
to give ball this winter. The
members thonght that the To-
cal had become so we'll known that II was
time To make known their strength. The
ball will be held In January and very
probably I'm Infantry hall. II Is not de
cided yet concerning the hall since Hese-
tatons are not yet completed.
