which time the reports OF the business

One OF Hhe most interesting reports
was that of the second business agent

BUILDING LABoRERs TONIGHT.
Tonight there is expected TO be a large
number OF the members OF the building
laborers on hand at the meeting to re-
vive interest. The business agent has
been very busy working up an interest In
the locals and feels that this winter will
be very active one for the trade.
The members had not been taking the
active interest in the work that was ex-
pected on account OF the summer. Now,
however. that winter is coming and the
men are all at work. interest is beginning
TO be shown and the building laborers are
planning to do many things for the benefit
OF the craft. II is thought that after
several OF the meetings have been we'll
attended some sort OF an entertainment
for tn benent OF the body will be given.
The meeting tonight will probably develop
