Charles R., Frazier. who. has had
charge of the publicity END of the
campaign, has at last divuIged the
secret of his fly pup" which has
been appearing in the display col

intently at, "201 new. members on
January TO-" Frazier's pup has been
the cause of much wild guessing on
the part of the. oldest inhabitants"
and others, and the sale of headache
powders has diminished alarmingly
since the news is out. A. E. Larimer,
who is the organizer of the cam.

Frazier in getting out some clever
advertising.

preliminary arrangements. They will
