4 ments, at the meeting which comes on
April "a. a
The program opened with vocal
solo. and encore by Miss Jane Bene-
dict with Miss Lyra Benedict, as ac-
companist. Mrs. r. q. Sears then
read a paper on Club Ethics" COM
piled by DR.. 1.ozier. for the annual
meeting of the New York Federation
OF Women's clubs at its Saratoga meet
ing last November. The keynote of the
paper was the necessity, for the best
interests of all, of getting back to the
first simple platform upon which wom4
ems clubs were started, and it ex-
planned in detail the various ways in
which the condition of the members
was favorably affected. The first idea
is to educate, and there are many
things ins club education not found In
books, one of the finest Of which is
character building. The paper went on
to state that the club teaches SYM
pathy, and puts each one on a plane of
equality with the other members, while
it also imparts the teaching to be ju-
dicial, and aids in expression.
The next number, a piano duet by
Mrs. j. w. Lloyd and Miss Lyra Ben
ediet, was followed by characteristic
article by Mrs. Sarah Plat Decker on
THE Amusing Side Of Club Life" read
by Mrs. S. P. Knisely, in the absence
Of Mrs. II. T. MARS. The paper was
bright and witty and in a number OF
amusing incidents relating to out
siders' attitudes toward women's clubs,
many impressive truths were driven
home. The program closed with
vocal number by Miss Ruth BELL, who
also responded to an encore. She was
accompanied by Miss Hazel Dinges.
Mrs. Alliston, of Marathon, was the
only out-of-town guest.

ness.
A Transformation scene has been TAX
ing place in George A. Olsons grocery
store on West Main street. The fact
is it don't look like the same store.
George began business in the little
building a few years ago, and by fair
dealing and progressive methods built
up his tgade until he became so crowd
ed for room that 1t was necessary to
provide more room. The location is
good and he did not want to move. So
he adopted the same expedisnts used
in large cities to economic space. He
built upward. The store was in a way
remodeled, new shelving reaching to
the ceiling put in and system of ladder
trans installed. BY this method an
excellent display of the goods is made
and they are easy of access. Further
than this number of new and con-
venient fixtures have been added. In
sect and moisture proof receptacles for
dried fruit and other articles are pro-

little store in the city. He has the
goods, too, the very best that can be
bought and. they are sold en- a very
narrow margin.
! The assortment kept at this place
is most surprising. Everything has the
appearance of freshness AMI cleanli-
ness. so very essential in a. store of
this. kind. He has ample facilities for
prompt service, and most efficient
corps Of clerks. You cannot do better
than to trade with OLSON.

WANT INSTRUCTIONS REMOVED
Grand Jury Holds Conference With
Billiard Hall Owners.


One Of the aftermatlls of the recent
grand jury investigation which did not
become known until today was the
conference the grand jury had with
billiard hall owners, whose tables are
in the rear of cigar stores occupying
the front Of the store rooms, and which
have been screened from view by par
titions or other distractions. The pur-
pose OF the grand jury was to have
these distractions to the view removed,
because of the complaints Of parents
that they became handy blinds behind
which their sons concealed themselves
while in the places. No action was
contemplated by the grand jury further
than it sought in! this way to make
easier the enforcement of the law pro-
hibiting minors from frequenting such
places.
Two owners Of such places appeared
before the grand jury, and in one in
stance the distractions objected to
have been removed. The other owner
has the matter under consideration.

''The Exposition is fzzel

it was at our Exposition here,

The Wood We Use.

Every person in the United States
is using over six times as much
wood as he would use if he were in
Europe. The country as a whole
consumes every year between three
and four times as much wood as all
OF the forests of the United States
grow in the meantime. The average
acre OF forest lays up a store of only
ten cubic feet annually, whereas it
ought to be laying up at least thirty
cubic feet in order to furnish the
products taken out of it. Since
1880 more than 200, ,O0O.000,000
feet of timber have been cut for
lumber alone, including S0,0O0,O00,
600 feet of coniferous timber in ex-
cess of the total coniferous stump
age estimate of the census in 1880.
