DEFER ORGANIZATION.
Business Men Will Meet Jan. q to Per
feet Marshalitown Club.


The twenty business men who are
interested In the organization of the
Marshalltown Club, at meeting held
in the parlors of the First National
Bank Monday night. determined to
postpone any further attempt to effect
permanent organization of the club
until Tuesday evening, Jan. 4. Because
Of the coming franchise election, and
the feeling which the agitation over it
has aroused, it was deemed best to adj
journ the meeting until in January.
and then make a final effort to induce
the business men to join hands and get
together in a club movement to pro-
mote the city's interests
Altho the membership canvass has
not been pushed vigorously, owing to
the members being busy, the applica-
tons of sixty-four members had been
taken. This was considered not very
flattering to the project. altho some
who were there were confident that this
number could be increased to not less
than $50 if concerted effort was made
before the January meeting
Altho some were discouraged by what
appeared to be small results up to date
the majority were in favor of going
ahead and 1t was with this determine
ton, together with the announcement
of some that they We're determined to
launch the club, even il it was neces-
sary to get a comparative few to get
under the organization and guarantee
any shortage in running expenses for
the first year or two, that the meeting
adjourned.

ported thru it's chairman,sW. w. Doo-
little, that 1t was unable to agree on a
| list of officers, and Mr.. Doolittle asked
that the committee be discharged. This
was done, and the committees ON loca-
ton and members were also discharged.

chairman, is to appoint later commit

members.

altho some doubted the wisdom of fur
| ther meetings until after the franchise
| election 1t was on Mr.. Sears motion
that adjournment for permanent orr
ganization was postponed until Janu-
airy.
| In order to promote interest and
boost the proposed organization up to
| the time that the next meeting is to be
held it was decided to try a campaign
of advertising and publicity Mr.. Click
asked each of the men present to send
him a letter setting out the writer's
view of the necessity of a club such as
is proposed, and the benefits that the
city could derive from it. Mr.. Click
was assured that these letters would be
published in the daily papers. 1t was
also promised that publicity would be
| given what other similar clubs in other
cities Were doing for their city. AL
who have signed application cards are
asked to send them to James McNally

idiotic shrug and a countenance mex

never trust me with any, for uncle

Upon which the highwayman gave
him a few curses for his stupidity
