COUNTRY CLUB MEETING.
James Mentally Elected President
Board of Directors Chosen.

A new president was elected, a new
constitution without bylaws adopted
and board Of eight directors chosen
at the annual meeting of the Marshall
town Country Club, held at the Mar
shalltown Club Tuesday evening The
meeting was largely attended by men
and women members, and occupied
about two and one half hours time.
Four men were nominated for presi-
dent in the persons /, of James Nc
Nally, Ralph, w. Scott, F. G. Pierce,
and DR.. F. S., Hynds. Mentally was
elected on the fourth ballot. Following
this election former President F. E.
Northup retired from the chair and the
new president proceeded with the elec-
ton of the directors.
Eight directors were chosen, four for
two-year terms and four for one year.
Next year four more will be elected
for two years, so that in this way half
of the directors will always be those
who have had a years experience.
The directors chosen for two-year
terms were A. II. E. Matthews, Ralph
w. Scott, c. E. Darling, and G.. c.
Trine. Those elected to serve for one
year were Mrs. G. H. Ruth, d. T.
Denmead, +. G. Pierce, and Elmer
Tuffree. A new constitution was
adopted. but no bylaws, thus giving
the directors full power in all matters
pertaining to the management of the
club. This was amended to read that
they should have full power except as
to authority to raise the dues. A vice
president and secretary treasurer will
be appointed by the board.
Carl Heitshu, secretary and treasur-
er. reported that $1,000 in dues was
being carried on the books at the pres
ent time. A part of these dues, how
ever, are not yet due, so can not be
classed as delinquents. The receipts
for the year ending Oct. l were report
ed as $500, and the expenditures ap-
p,oXimately 1864. Outstanding !Ills
at the present time were given as
totaling about $3.50.

VIGOROUS TALKS
FOR BOND ISSUE

Questions Plain and FayOrS
Proposal for Nov. 7
GEN. R. K. EVANS GIVES
H.. HIS "GOODBY" SPEECH
Retiring Commander of Depart
meHt Says Aloha: Various
Features at Lunch

War and the municipal bond issue
were the two main subjects taken up
by the Ad Club today at its regular
luncheon at the Alexander Young
hotel ...Es
The subject of war was contained
in letter from Paul Super, general
superintendent of the Y. NJ. c. A., on
his experience in Canada and what
the people are doing there for the
war. A goodby speach BY Gen. r. K.
Evans, who is leaving here next
month, and a description of a trip
through Switzerland and Germany at
the beginning of the European war
by Geo. b. .Thayer, who is now touring
the Hawaiian Islands, we're added
features, and the talk on bonds by 3.
Lewis, Jr., was the center of close
attention. l.. a. Thurston also spoke
briefly on the bond subject.
Il came up here to say goodby,'
said Gen. Evans, but j am coming
back; in fact, it will probably be next
summer. November 10 | shall be "a
years old and by law | must retire, but
am glad to say that am still in good
condition, for of my .43 classmates at
West Point only seven remain alive.
also wish particularly to thank l..
A. Thurston for the land which he has
opened to the soldiers at the volcano
for it, will give them great pleasure
and they are extremely anxious to CO.
Mr.. Tkayer called his talk "a Trip
Through HELL" and said that from
what he saw while making his way to
the coast from Switzerland that war
should never be allowed and that mill
tarism is absolutely wrong.
Mr.. Lewis carle out strongly for the
bond Issue proposal, particularly for
waterworks and sewers. Both he and
Mr.. Thurston pointed out that the tax
increase plan cannot be effective un-
til 1918, and Mr Thurston indicated
that he fayors the bond issue plan,
both of which POINTS were appreciated
by the Ad Clubites.
Honolulu Must Progress
In opening his very pertinent talk,
Mr.. Lewis pointed out that large
amount of money must be expended
ito place Honolulu on par with the
average American CITY, He asked If
Honolulu is willing to pay the price
and assumed that as matter OF pro-
gressive public spirit, it is.
He pointed out the necessity of eX-
pending funds in comprehensive
manner and then went into a discus
sion of the tax rate proposal.
Here he emphasized the inability
to get the revenues from increased
tax rates before 1918, and said that
it is agreed that Honolulu is behind
in public improvements now and a
beginning on construction should be
made as soon as possible. He point
ed out that not only must tax rate in,
creases wait upon legislative action
and thus be delayed until 1910, but
legislative action is required to re-
lease the cash basis fund.
Here he said:
