The Wurra Wurra Club.

There was full quorum present when the opening hour was struck on the clock, and as the president, Mir. Holsap- pie, had not arrived the meeting was called to order by Horace Holt, as tenn pokary chairman, and after the prelimi- nafy Y exercises were over and out of the way, Ed. Warner got up and offered a motion that the Club organize a Union Brotherhood supper and invite the vari- ous Church Brotherhoods to come. "These Union Brotherhood suppers are getting to be a great institution in this town" said he. "The last one they had, up al Pilgrim Church, was bigger than any that had been held before, and it's safe gamble that the next one, down at Cornfords church will be bigger than the last The creeds, nationalitieS and i political faiths that go there are as mixed as they are at town meetings. There are Catholics, Methodists, Episcopalians, Congregationalists Baptists and those who have no creed at all. There are Yankees, Irish, Dutch, French, Swedes, | British, Italians, Scandinavians and what not There are democrats, republicans, prohibitionists, bull meese, mugwumps and hoaters, and they are getting so they l feel as much at home in such a com mingling as if they were all of kind. They're getting so they know one an other, and finding out that as a whole, we've got a pretty tolerable good set of people in this community, after all. Now this Club doesn't want to be behind in this work of getting our people acquaint- ed with one another, and l hope my motion will pass"
 AL Herriman said he didn't have any objection, so the vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, and Mayor Rowe, Frank Stevens, Ed. Pease, Dan Sweeney and Al. Herriman were ap- pointed committee to arrange for the supper and fix date.
 Ned. Roberts got up. "Mr. Chair man." said he, "of course it isn't neces- sary to apprise this assemblage that Bald-Hea Club has been organized in this vicinity, to which a number of mem bers of this Club belong. These bald headed people are going to have q ban quet, at the Falls Village Inn, next Mon day night, to which bald-headed men from all over the state will be attracted, get look-in. Now this looks to me like something in the line of class pre- judice. How long have these people been possessed with the idea that because they have no hair they are better than anybody else' According to this new propaganda bald -headedness is no longer d misfortune, or disfgurement. It's a distinction; a mark of superiority; some thing that entities them to stick up their noses at the rest of Us. But we can beat them at that game if we go about it, And I move you sir, that the committee on roads and bridges be instructed to confer and collaborate with the committee on plan and scope, in the formation of a. Hairy Mans Club"
 "Hold on there, I objectw shouted A. lIerriman. "Organize all the clubs you please, but don't name them after me"
 "The gentleman misinterpretS the title" said Roberts, quietly. "AS l was saying, the organization of Hairy Mans Club would meet the challenge which these smooth-pated gentlemen have thrown out, most effectively. There are more men with hair on their heads than those fellows can muster, and we could get up banquet that would attract ten times the number of people they will have at Falls Village"
 Hen Ives cordially seconded the motion. "I belong to the other club" said he, "but I would join this proposed organiza- ton too, for pve got some hair as well as some bald, and believe in being inn partial"
 The motion was passed, almost unani- mously.
 MT. Lyles requested all members who proposed to attend the Business Mems smoke, tonight, to hold up their right hands. Every right hand went up.
 Then, in accordance with a motion by Sexton Seneca Strong, the meeting ad- journed
 ''Are you servant of the people ?" asked the constituent
