The Wurra Wurra Club.

The thunderstorm kept a number of members at home. Only a few, who were not afraid of being struck by lightning, came out to attend the meet ing. The president, MT. R. T. Farnum, was unavoidably absent, having received word from his able lieutenant, "Tommy" Mcclellan, that the store cat was missing again, and he had rented a telephone booth in the central office and was spend ing the evening calling up various places between here and the Adirondacks, to see if he could get on Tabby's trail. (P. S.-It subsequently, developed that the cat was in Mrs. Camps ack.yard, all the time, being fed.) As it was necessary to have president pro tenn, Mir. s. Back bone Strong rose and got up and nomi- mated Mir. Freeman Dempsey for the position, and that genial gentleman was unanimously elected. He was escorted to the throne by Mir. Strong and Phil Orben, and at once called the meeting to order. The Opening Ode was sung by oNoASS DhiAONhN No NilN AAll0 Ol AilN "Rocky Roads to Double h." and the minutes of the previous meeting were whistled by Frank Hitchcock who went through from start to finish without changing his pucker. Then the chair called for the regular order of business.
 On motion of Mir. Bartley Killawee, the chair appointed Messrs. Sleighter and Streck to decorate the front of the Clubhouse with the Clubs coat-of-arms, in red and gold, for the soldiers reunion next week Thursday. Ed. Warner thought the Club members ought to be allowed to participate in the automobile joy-ride that Is being planned for the veterans and their wives, on Reunion Day, and suggest that the secretary be instructed to communicate with Chair man ]. Clinton Roraback, of the automo- bile committee and request that such provision be made. Mir. Rogaback, who was present, said 1t was an excellent sug- gestion, and he would see that such ar engagements were made. "I will also see to it." said he, "that provision is made for including in the soldiers automobile ride the various Sunday schools, the fraternal lodges, the democratic party, the republicans, the street cleaning de- partment, the Hawthorne and Cranford Clubs, the Equal Franchise League, the section gang, and Judge Ford. We might as we'll be thorough and impartial in this business" said he, land give everybody in town a ride, even if we have to leave out a few of the soldiers"
 "There is no motion before the house." said the chair. "Will somebody make one?"
 "Yes sir" said Joe Parsons. "T make motion that we adjourn"
 The chair looked into the book of rules and after a thorough search announced that motion to adjourn is always out of order, and said the deliberations would continue to proceed.
 Fred Morin moved that the secretary be instructed to extend to Judge Ford and Sheriff Rhoades the assurance of the Clubs distinguished consideration for their laudable efforts to enforce a respect for the laws relating to automo- piles and vehicle lights. "Thanks to them," said MT. Morin, "the people who run automobiles with jags on, and wagons with no lights on, are beginning to learn few things that will do them good and make it safer for other people on the streets.''
 al move we do now adjourn" said Dr. Ross, and it was so voted.
