Sims are always Interesting and hu-
morous and the crowds show their
appreciation by the applause given
every picture when the final view is
shown. The songs sung by Miss Mae

For a place to live, a house or fat;
A home of comfort to hang. your hat.

oughly organized in its campaign work
and is bending every effort to add to its
membership. The timber of this camp
is par excellence, and it will be passing
strange if expectations are not more
than realized. 80,
Tomorrow night La Fiesta camp will
hold its first meeting in its new quar-
ters at Mammoth hall, SIT South
Broadway. Take elevator. This occa-
sion will be used as a vehicle for In
augurating a house warming, at which
it is expected 1000 members and their
male friends will be present. the com
mittee on arrangements includes Nelgn-
bors Beutel Bowling, Bagley, Dougall
and Jacob Good, which in themselves
insures a successful affair. Some ex-
hibitions of physical culture VIII be
given and there will be music, CARDS
and cigars Several prominent Wood
men will give addresses.
La. Fiesta camp is in the midst of
campaign for new members, and TINS
house warming will stimulate activity
and doubtless will prove an incentive
in securing new applications. Last
Monday night the camp took in several
applications and had a general happy
time 1t being the last night in the old
hall where the camp has been for the
past five years, remembrances were the
order of the evening, and several hap
py sallies were exchanged between the
members.
East Lake camp enjoyed a social
open meeting last Tuesday night. The
attendance was a record breaker. The
entertainment consisted of cards and
music by the excellent orchestra of the
camp. At 10 o'clock all repaired to the
banquet room, where a fine lunch was
served Addresses were made by Or
ganizer Stretch and Consul Commander
Let's, after which several applications
for new membership were taken. All
present agreed that it was one or the
most pleasant and profitable meetings
| held in many months.
Vernon camp met Thursday night,
with a good attendance. Several ap-
pIications were received. Speeches were
made by Neighbors Thompson, Powers,
Darling, Rodgers, Chapman, Shaffer,
| Stretch and Michels from Colorado.
This camp is reaching to make its en-
rollnent 200 by January /. 1910, which it
will undoubtedly more than do as its
present number is 100. 1t has nine GER
| tifcates in hand, five examinations on
the way to Denver and twenty applica-
tions on the clerks desk.
