Wunted--A Marshu11tO1u11 Club
is Needed nandW hatit Do
the Citys Commercial

Mr. A. G.. Click, Chairman MARSHALL
town Club:-On the question why
Marshalltown needs a commercial club
would say first, because MARSHALL
town is substantial and prosperous
business center. She enjoys already
hourishing industrial trade, and she
has a complex social and institutional
development. Her business and profess
sional men, in their respective activ-
tiles, are markedly successful with
their individual interests. But II is
not enough for the greatest advance
ment of a city that its people promote
their own business or pursuit
Large and growing cities everywhere
realize the necessity of a well-organ-
lied and enthusiastic body of repre-
sentative citizens who will study and
discuss the problems which confront a
city, and who will work unitedly to
build up the business and the insti-
buttons already established.
| The demands of a large city are
greater than few citizens or a COM
mittee are willing to promulgate and
develop, especially, when the ques-
tons involve the interests of the whole
community. A commercial club con-
sisting of 300 or 400 members may well
discuss and conclude and move upon
big undertakings.
Marshalltown in the second place
needs club of large membership in
order to raise money to move its in
terests. Des Moines, it is said, las,
year, raised 100000 out of it's citizens
from club membership and donation fol-
the purpose of increasing the interests
of the city.
Some money must ne raised by 9
city in other ways than by regular tax.
alton, and public spirited men who ar,
enjoying prosperous business are NJ

STRENGTH OF THE WANT AID.
Remarkable Agency in Modern Affairs
and Provides Interesting READING.

ana TFoVIoeS interesting reading.
The want ad page of the daily news
paper is a creation of modern times
Nothing at all similar to or suggestive
of it in tale or history or print of any
kind appeared prior to the publication
of the American daily newspaper
James Gordon Bennett the elder,
invented the want ad. In the old days
it was generally used to locate lost peo-
pie or articles, to secure help or posi-
tions.
The want ad has grown with the
years as much as any part of news
papering. Today it covers a wide field.
The latest patron of the want ad
page is the United States. The govern
ment has found that the most effective
way to recruit the navy department is
to use the want ad 1t is announced
from Washington:
1.-The only method of securing APP
plicants which the service finds more
effective than the colored posters is the
newspaper want ads
After resorting to every other means
of attracting the attention of the young
men. Uncle Sam says that about the
only kind of advertising he needs to
pay for is the newspaper want ads
IT is interesting to watch the de-
velopment OF method of doing bust
ness. From the little personals James
Gordon Bennett devised has come a
new general market place Everything
under the sun is traded apd sold in the
want pages. The newspaper that has
the want-ad supremacy is a veritabls
trading station for the state.
Moreover, the want page is most
interesting page to read There is a
great deal of human interest in the
countless bargains offered There is
some pathos, some pure fun and some
deviltry. Human nature is seen ir
many guises. The intelligent reader
never misses the want ads"

DECREE IS FILED
IN WOODBURY. CASE
OFFICIAL FINDING OF COURT IN

DECREE NOT MATERIALLY
DIFFERENT FROM FINDING
Court Dismisses the Woodbury. Peti-
ton, Also the Gross Bills of the
Clicks For Surrender of the Notes
Future Action on Part of Plaintiff

The decree in the Woodbury. Click
case, which was orally decided by
Judge c. B. Bradshaw a few weeks
ago, was filed in the district court this
morning. The decree is not materially
different from the verbal decision of
the case as delivered from the bench
by Judge Bradshaw.
The attorneys for the Woodbury. es-
tate have not yet decided what course
will be pursued. whether they will at
tempt TO renew the case in the district
court, or whether they will take an APP
peal TO the supreme court. They are
awaiting the arrival of Mr.. Frank
Woodbury., the trustee of the estate,
from Pasadena, Cal, before procedure
is decided on. He is expected about

Disnaisses Plaintiffs Suit.
In lis essential features the decree
finds that the court is unable to de-
termine what credits, if any, were APP
Piled on the note in controversy from
lle Sale OF cOiIdleralS, also what
amount remains unpaid on the notes
1t therefore holds that the plaintiff

ton of the notes are also dismissed

for the costs in the main case. except
ing the costs Of the cross bills which
are taxed to those filing them.
May Not Bar Action Here.
The only one of Mr. Woodbury's at
torneys who was in the city was not
prepared 10 say offhand whether the
decree would prevent recommending
the suit in the district court. He
thought, from hasty scanning of the
decree, that there was nothing in il
that would prove bar to further pro.
ceedings here. He thought, perhaps
that an appeal on the decree NIGH
prove the better way, but was not pre-
pared TO say what would be done unit
his client had been consulted.
