Felix X. West.

Any man who has the executive abil-
| ity to take charge of an institution
and pilot it successfully, raising 1t
out of deep debt and keeping the eX-
penses well within the income. as F.
| X. West has done for the past four
years as secretary of the Chamber of
Commerce, is deserving of great
amount of praise When Mr.. West
assumed the duties of secretary there
was dependency and debt hanging
heavily over the organization, inter
est was at low ebb, and the mem
bers who still hung on and paid dues
from force of habit were beginning to
lose faith in the whole affair and
would in the very nature of things
have discontinued in a short time Mr..
West took charge of affairs and after
calling a meeting outlined his views
as to the proper conduct of the asso-
citation and was told by the members
to go to it, The first thing deter
mined upon was never to contract
debt unless the money was in the
treasury to pay for the goods when
delivered, another was to get enough
revenue to do this and to pay OFF the
indebtedness as fast as possible.
1t would be betraying a confidence
to tell just how deep in the hole the
old commercial club was when he took
charge of affairs, but it is no breach
of confidence now to state that it does
not owe a dollar today that it is not
able to pay and the retiring secretary
can relinqush his office feeling that
he has given a dollars worth of ser
vice for every dollar that he has re
ceived as salary.
There have been many things TO
contend with in the past four years
and the fact that the retiring secre
tary has met every issue and kept the
members of the organization in good
humor speaks we'll for his diplomacy.
The newly reorganized Chamber {.
Commerce viii have to keep going to
maintain the precedent set by the re
firing secretary. but they are pledged
10 this work and as the officers and
members include the most substantial
business men of the city no doubt
greater things will be accomplished in
he future than have been in the past |

HALLOWEEN GAMES.

HALLOWEEN GAMES.
The merry carnival of hobgoblins,
brownies, fairies, witches, owls, cats
and bats, who are waiting for tnesr
annual reunion, is almost here, ana
October 81 will bring with it many
Halloween festivities.
A Halloween masquerade makes 8
very pretty party. Send the invits-
tions on Halloween post cards; they
are especially designed for the oc-
casion and just the thing for an af-
fair of this kind. Then ask the guests
to come in the characters designated,
viz: A witch, fairy, gnome, ghost,
pumpkin, etc. A Japanese cap and
mask may be sent to each one, as they
are inexpensive. When the guesss all
have them on the effect is amusing in
the extreme.
After an hour spent in dancing, UNI
mask and try the old tricks peculiar
to the day. They have new interest
each year, for there is always some
one for whom it is ''first" time; the
old love story is ever new and the
oracles are generally propitious if the
hostess is clever in consulting the
.sfates" before hand. Of course there
must be a fortune cake and the reg
ulation refreshments are apples
nuts, cider, popcorn, sandwiches, cot
fee and individual pies.
A prize may be awarded the guest
who guesses the identity of the great
est number of persons before they
unmask and one for the person VINO
remains the longest incognito. Light
the dining room entirely by candies
and platters containing alcohol anc
salt. The light thus made is ghost,y
in the extreme. By cutting raisins II
the alcohol good fat ones, we have
what our English cousins call "snaI
dragons" The person who succeed:
in getting a raisin from the flames
will be protected from evil spirl,:
during the year.
A visit to the stores will convince
ere that there is as commercial side
| to this recognition of Special days
in the years calendar. For compare
lively small sums the hostess can bus
| jack-o-lanterns, pumpkins of al
sizes, vegetables, brownies witches
etc. But after all they do not appea
to the children half so much as L
they had.the fun of making them a
home, for the greatest joy in life to
child is to be allowed to assist in the
preparation for a party.
