The feature of the Tuesday lunch
con of the Chamber of Commerce
was the excellent music furnished by
the high school orchestra, which re-
Elected much credit upon the

Dutton, piano; Clarence Nash, VIC
lin; Gardner Lange, cornet; Cloyce
jacques, first clarinet; Jervis Full
mer, second clarinet Clifford Arch

flute, Harold Vance, drums. The
orchestra rendered several selections
which were enthusiastically applaud
ed.
Resolutions endorsing the immi-
grafton policy advocated by DR.. Gu
lick at the previous meeting were
read and referred to the legislative
committee.
The committee in charge of the re-
ception in honor of President Bryan,
reported that the reception would be
given December 20, and that the
ladies of the Presbyterian church
would serve the banquet, and that
the full program would be arranged
in the next few days.
The committee on the proposed al
terations of the city hall reported
that the share of the costs to be
borne by the Chamber would be in
the neighborhood of $1,000 or $1,000.
The committee asked to be dis
charged but their request was re-
fused.
F. E. Sanger stated that the coun-
Gil would require a written agree
ment from the Chamber to bear half
the expense of the alterations before
the contract was let G. w. Watt
said that inasmuch as the Chamber
of Commerce was not incorporated
it would probably be necessary for
some individual members to become
personally responsible for the carry
ing out of the agreement.
Mayor Jackson urged that the old
steam pump and boilers should be
sold, instead of moved to the new
pumping plant. and that with the
money they brought new rotary
pump should be bought and connect
ed with the college plant. for use in
cases of emergency, and said the col
lege could furnish power on a few
minutes notice. The council would
want a committee from the Chamber
of Commerce to attend the next
meeting with power. to talk bust
ness.

com mittee with w L. Greenawalt as
chairman be appointed to visit the
business men, who had not already
been solicited by the Hog Show COM
mittee, and secure subscriptions for
remodeling the city hail.
Mayor Jackson announced that

after the holidays, and then made an
urgent appeal for support for the
high school annual which he stated
had been given a black eye by the
advertisinb committee of the Retail
Merchants association. A lively dis
cussion followed, in which it was
brought out that the committee of
the merchants association did not at
tempt to dictate to its members as
to what mediums they should pat
ronize. but simply advised them as
to the value of the advertising solic-
tied. The general opinion seemed to
be that the high school annual
should be issued without any adver-
tisements and that enough financial
support would be donated to make
up the revenue derived from the adj
vertisements.
A vote of thanks was given the
nigh school orchestra, and the
chamber adjourned
