for him to receive the cooperation of
all those who subscribed to them.
The rating books issued by Mr.. Pol

spoke on this subject. The value of
the books was emphasized by num-
Der of speakers, some of them saying

bers of the league would do we'll to
of holding celebration and called
upon those present to express their
views concerning this subject.
A number Of those present talked
about the proposed celebrations and
all were of the opinion that KeoKuk
should hold at least one celebration
during the coming year and that the
time to start planning for it was the
present. After the matter had been
discussed at some length, 1t was de-
Icided to have a committee of five APP

Some very remarkable results are

preventing their absorption by the blood.
This done, the food is allowed free pas

CITY NEEDS SLOGAN.

One of the important suggestions
made for future action to be taken by
the league was that Of Louis Kline.
Of the Royal Cloak company, who
suggested that the league select a
slogan for the city. He pointed out
that good slogan could be used in
many instances and that It would
have large advertising value to the
city and to the merchants here.
Banners carrying this slogan could
be used, he said, on automobiles and
other vehicles and could be made a
prominent feature OF the trade excur-
sions which no doubt will be held dur
ing the coming summer He suggest.
ed, that it might be well to hold a
prize contest for the selection of an
appropriate slogan. His suggestion
was made after the close Of the meet
ing and probably will be acted upon
at the next meeting of the league, to
be held in the coming month.

Albert Linquist pointed out that an
effort should be made to increase the
Of the league to point
where it would include practically
every merchant in the city. He said
that only on one occasion had there
been any solicitation for new mem
bers. Ten new members had been
secured in this way, he said, but the
canvass had been very incomplete. He
suggested that there be further eff
fort made to secure new members for
the league.
