 Mrs. Oliver H. r. Belmont, national chairman of the Woman Voters con- vention has issued the circular of the woman voters of America.
 The Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage is calling a convention of it's members and friends from the suf- frage states to meet at San Franrisco September IA, 15 and 16 The purpose of this convention is to mature plans for definite political action on the part of woman voters in support of the na- tional suffrage amendment.
 There are now approximately four million woman voters. Onefourth of the national senate, one sixth of the house of representatives, and one-fifth Of the electoral vote comes from suf- frage states. With this leverage in congress, the national suffrage amend ment could speedily be passed if the woman voters would unite in it's sup port. This convention is an attempt to devise plans for united and effective action. It is the first political conven- ton of woman voters that has ever been called and is an event of histor- ical significance.
 We hope very much that you will be able to attend the convention. For fur ther details, please write to our or ganizer, Miss Doris Stevens, Congress ional Union Booth, Palace of Education, Panama Pacific Exposition, san Fran cisco California.

Our Home" was ably handled by Senator Davis. The home of the Moose in Phoenix is a home in fact as well as in name and is appreciated by all Moose who take advantage of it. The senator pointed out how it could be made bigger and better
 Mayor Youngs subject was an ap- propriate one. The mayor is as game as the next one and his talk on "A Game Animal showed that he has lost none of his vim.
 Commissioner Mclean, is always there with the goods. He is on the migratory order here, there, and everywhere - always busy, doing something. His work at the San Diego convention showed that ne is capable and competent and johnny on the spot. His topic was also an appropriate one "A Commission Se- dative" whatever that is, anyway he handled it with well chosen words but with some caution.
 Governor Hunts talk on An Ari- zona Moose" was interesting. The gov ernOr pointed out the fact that the Arizona Moose are growing bigger and better and destined to become the strongest organization in the state.
 Chief Brisbois told us about the White Wings He said that they flew mighty high but could not get out of reach of a Moose The chief had charge of the hunting party and the number of white wings brought to the Moose Home proved his ability as rimrod.
 Other speakers ably handled the sub Jects assigned them and taking it all together the Moose mulligan was great big success

A Quincy architect is at work on
the plans for the building, which
combines a gymnasium, opera house,

buildings connected by an arena.

will be large enough for a complete
gymnasium, including a public swim
ming pool There will be tennis
courts, bowling alleys, ETC., open to
all the men and women of Marion
County. On the second floor will be
a lage auditorium with a seating ca
pacity for 1000 persons.
