Bass-singer Strong was likewise absent somewhere else, and Ed Warner refused to open the exercises, nothing was done about 1t until the popular deputy sheriff, Mir. L. C. Rhoades, served subpoena upon Dr. Ross, summoning him to the chair. Then there was something do- ing. Dr. Ross asked pr. Coley to sing the Opening Ode, but Coley begged to be excused as he had a frog in his throat and was afraid he would croak if he at tempted high note; so Con. Hitchcock had to sing it. It was awful. Ex-Mavor Rowe read the minutes of the previous meeting, from notes left In the record book by Fred Collin along with lot of memoranda, left in by mistake, of ac- counts of people who had been having watches fixed at the jewelry stnre and neglected certain more or less important details after the work was done.

 Mir. Harry H5lt proposed the name of ] Game Warden Shine for honorary mem. bership. Judge Ford jumped up and op- posed the nomination. He said there was something uncanny about Shine and the way he showed up unexpectedly at places where he wasn't looked for and where his presence was not desired.

 Ex-Mayor Rowe got up and said he would like to make q few observations on the necessity for additional school house facilities in various sections of the town, but Mir. Rhoades was called on by Judge Ford to eject the ex-mayor before he could fairly introduce his subject. "There's no use stirring up things" said Judge Ford, "and if the gentleman can't offer something that will not disturb the harmony of the Club, we'd better ad journ. Therefore l move that we do now adjourn" And the meeting stood adjourned.
