Bartenders' Hold Meeting and
Social Session Last
Sunday Afternoon.

held by Bartenders' Union, Local
No. 1869, occurred in Trades Council
Hall last Sunday Afternoon.
Postals were sent to all members
notifying them that an important
meeting would be held, and after
the meeting social session would
also be held, and for all bartenders
to attend. The sending of the
postals certainly had it's effect on
the members because they came
very near all being there and stay
ing TO the finish.
The regular meeting was called
for 1:30 and the usual routine of
business was transacted and several
communications were read and re-
ceived. One of the important
questions before the meeting was
the changing of the meeting time
from Sunday morning to Sunday
afternoon. This was done for the
good of the local because many of
the members claimed that after
working hard all day Saturday,
they did not feel like attending the
meeting and that if the meetings
were held in the afternoons larger
attendance would be on the job.
Four new members were initiated
into the local they are as follows:
George Muncy, Charles Koegel,
A. K. johnson, and Robert Duell-
man. Several new applications
were read and received and will be
acted upon at the next regular
meeting. After the new applicants
have been initiated the bartenders
can then boast of having some
where near hundred per cent or
ganized town.
1t was at some past meeting that
the proposition was rroached by a
few of the members to hold a get
to gether meeting and finally it
was decided by the members TO
give the boys a social session.
Last Sunday was the time set for
the occasion and to say that they
did the thing up brown is putting
it mildly.
The committee consisting of
Charles (Red) Ssidenfaden, and
headed by VIM (Avoirdupois)
Fischer left nothing in the back
ground when it comes to arranging
feast for such manly crowd and
who are experts in the art of eat
ing, especially when there is some
