feels very hopeful that the new body will
be formed soon with a large. active
membership.
The committee on organization en-
gagged the services of George H. Gall to
call upon the retail merchants of the
city, explain to them the plans Of the
organization. and obtain their names as
charter members of the body. Mr.. Gail
has been at work for several days. and
has secured more than forty signatures
to the list of members.
Mr.. Gall said yesterday that he had
met with hearty cooperation from the
retail merchants, and that he had yet
to find the first man who declined to
pledge his sport to the movement.
Some of the merchants are out of the
city, and in some instances the canvass
has been slow, owing to the absence of
the men wanted. or their being occupied
when called upon. Mr.. Gail says the
question of the organization of the body
is now settled. and the only problem is
to ascertain as soon as possible how
