Interim for Rest.
Between the dedication of the de-
pot and that of the Commercial Club
building an interim for resting and
seeing the city sights was provided
for. The visitors were taken around
in autos and looked after by special
committees until the hour for start
ing things at the Commercial Club
building approached.
Dedication of the Club Building.
The program at the club followed
the regular program that was print
ed yesterday, with the exception of
some additions and the substitution

that was to have been filled by Mayor

Of the first speaker of the evening.
eve are proud not only of our
club but also of our many good look
ing people" (Laughter.) After a
short talk Ed. S. Russell, chairman
of the building committee was called
upon for an address.
Mr.. Russell responded in a man
ner which has convinced his friends
that he has more than ordinary abil-
ity as public speaker.
Mr.. Russell thanked the men Of
Wenatchee whose contributions had
made the building possible. He paid
a glowing tribute to the members
of the committee who raised the
money, and to the other members
of his own committee In closing he
handed to Acting President Dallact
of the commercial club the key to
the building. The key was a mon
strous affair and upon it's being pro-
duced the house broke forth with
peals of laughter.
DaIlach Receives the Key.
A. c. Dallach, in behalf of the
commercial club, received the key
to the institution, saying as he did
so: 81 take it for granted that the
size of this key represents the spirit
of the occasion and of the manner
in which the building and club shall
at all times be conducted"
Expressing the thanks of the club
to the members of the committee,
in words of enthusiasm, the speaker
presented each member, in the name
of the club, with a gold medal.
"I assure you, gentlemen" said
Mr.. Dallach to the committee, "that
this building shall always be used
for the upbuilding of our city and
community"
Governor Hay Speaks.
Governor Hay was next called
upon and in a short address added
his full quota of enthusiasm to that
of the others. His address is quoted
in another column of this issue.
Chairman Clark next referred to
that rainbow of colors which stream
ed in from the east in the afternoon
referring to Spokane Chamber of
Commerce members in the "kimo-
nos). Secretary Monroe, of that Or
ganization, responded.

President Lowman of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce; Charles G.
Heifner, the Seattle silver-tongued
orator who represented the Arctic
club, and R. H. Hughes, of the Ma
tional Apple show.
John P. Hartman, vice president
of the Arctic club, was on the pro-
gram for an address but was de-
tanned in Seattle on law business and
his place was taken on the program
by Charles G. Heifner. Mr.. Hart
man sent letter of regret addressed
to DIR. King. In the letter con-

ION behalf of the 1,5G0 members
of this club I extend to you our sim
cerest greetings and predict that the
opening of your club will be one of
the most important factors and con-
