Record Gets
Job Printing

At the meeting Of the board of
county commissioners last Mon
day, the Phoebe RECORD was the
successful bidder for the job
printing contract for Lincoln
county for the year 1908. The
only bid legally presented and
filed in time for this was that of
the RECORD. For the official adj
vertising, the Searchlight News,
Caliente Lode-Express and REC
ORD were in the field, but as the
Caliente man must have a Mer-
genthaler machine movement,
he secured the bid at II cents
per square. Just think of it! A
cut of from 81 per square, legal
rate, to II cents. You're well
come to it, old man. Hope you
get rich(O.
Now, Brother Nicklin, take
down the official banner" for a
year at least, as the Caliente man
needs the money.

Ladies' Guild
Elect Officers
First Year of Its Existence
Has Been Productive of
Much Good

The first meeting of the La
dies Guild in the new year was
held at the residence of Mrs.
A. A. Carman. Much business
of Importance was transacted,
chief among which was the cleo
ton of officers for the ensuing
year. Mrs. S. H. Rabbit was
UNANIMOUSLY reelected president,
Mrs. Ewing vice president, Mrs.
J. D. Campbell secretary and
treasurer and Mrs. Jesse Sim
mons assistant secretary and
treasurer. The officers chosen
have worked most earnestly in
behalf of the Guild in the past
year, and that their efforts have
been appreciated is evidenced by
by their reelection.
We congratulate the ladies
composing the membership of
the Guild upon the closing of a
most successful year in their or
ganization. They have accomp-
lished much in the way of pro-
viding training along spiritual
lines for the little ones OF
Phoebe, something which has
been neglected for too long a
time. Individual efforts along
this line had been repeatedly
made, but it remained for the
power of organized effort to be
successful.
We hope that the Guild may
long be looked upon as one OF
our leadMg institutions, and may
it maintain the record in the flu
ture which it has for the first
year of its existence.

Grange
STATE LECTURERS WORK.
Model System In Vogue In Massaohu
sets State Granue.

Sc'tS OAeeS oIdi9S.
The advantages Of putting grange
work upon thoroughly systematic
basis, 50 that exactly what is being
done can be positively known and def
nitely recorded, is shown in Massa-
chusctes. where the state lecturer.
Charles NJ. Gardner of Wcstficld. has
so systematiZcd the work done during
the lecture hour that at the end of the
year a complete total can be drawn off
exactly as the large business concern
draws off its annual balance sheet for
the inspection of it's stock holders.
This result is made possible by "a
carefully prepared report system
whereby every subordinate and Po-
mona lecturer In the state sends to the
state lecturer once in three months a
complete summary of all lecture hour
work in that grange. how many people
helped do 1t and how many persons
attended the meetings. At the end Of
the year the entire work Of each
grange In the state Is summarized and
shown on large chart that is ex-
hibited at the annual state meeting
BY this system the astounding fact
was brought out of last years work
that over 10000 persons had contribut-
ed something to the lecture hour pro-
grammes in Massachusetts and that
the total grange audience of the year
was 245.000 persons.
This system affords more than Il
mere record of results. 1t provides the
means of comparison one year with an
other it furnishes every three months
correct idea of how each grange is
getting along. whether holding its own
or not; it also gives the local lecturer
added reason for urging his members
to do their best in order that that
grange shall make the best possible
showing on the years chart at the
state meeting. A record Is also kept
of the leading topics discussed during
the year. and this also is presented to
the state meeting to show along what
lines grange thought is being especial l.
ly directed. while the distinct grange
efforts in behalf of town improvement
good citizenship, better schools and
other matters of civic betterment are
carefully recorded
Few people realize the power of the
grange organization or the influence
that it is eXerting along such variety
of important lines every year. Such
Il system us that in vogue in Massa-
chusetts, which puts into actual and
easily understood figures the total
work done in a state during year
aids greatly in bringing realization
of the magnitude of the work and in
fluence of the Order not merely to those
not identified with it, but even to its
own members who do not always ap-
preciate the scope and power of the
Order of which they are part.

GRANGE COOPERATION.
A Profitable Business Enterprise at

Nineland grange of New Jersey, in
connection with the Farmers Club

association about six years ago under
the name Of the Grange Cooperative

as board Of managers. Persons be-
came members by buying stock at 81

bers must be Patrons. In July, 1904
a grange store was opened, which car
ried full line of groceries, feed. etc
The cooperative plan provided for the
payment of . per cent on each stock
holders interest in the concern at the
end of the year; also such percent
age on all goods he had purchased as
his sales would allow after paying the
expenses. All sales must be for cash
The business amounts now to over

Another building is to be added to the

already been done. but what has been
