NO NEW BUILDING FOR.

Special Committee Thinks
$225,OOO Project Not Ad-
viSable at This Time
HOPE HOME WILL
COME IN FUTURE

At the luncheon of the Chamber of
Commerce yesterday, William d. Null
len, Josiah Marvel, W. A. Spcakman, W.
S. Brown and A. b. Moore, the commit
tee which had been appointed 10 look
into the question Of securing a site for
a Chamber Of Comerce building, recon-
mended that no building be erected at
this time. The report was adopted.
The report follows;
"Gentlemen:-ln accordance with a
motion adopted by the Membership
Council. recommended to the Board OF
Directors that committee be ap-
pointed to look into the question Of
securing a site for the Chamber Of
Commerce Building and work out
plans for the erection of the same.
your committee. to whom the matter
was referred, have carefully gone over
the sitruation and ind that to pro-
vide a permanent home suitable for
the needs OF the Chamber Of Com
merce. that there are number OF rea-
sons why the plan is not feasible at
the present time"
First. to find site suitably located,
and TO erect building on it for the
present and future needs of the
Chamber would mean an outlay of
about S2250OO to S25O,O0O. which. in
our judgment, would have to be
financed outside Of the organization.
And. when you take into consideration
that the membership dues OF the
Chamber. as present constituted, arc
bearly sufficient to sustain the de-
mands Of the Chamber in a growing
community like ours, and that the
funds now annually paid into the
Chamber by the membership. would
not admit of the Chamber assuming
any large financial responsibility"
Second. we could hardly recon-
mend any plan to raise funds after
our late attempt to finance the Will

abundant. it is a well-known fact that
capital is seeking investment. at
present. where large or quick returns
are promised. and until this period is
passed. it does not look as though
capital could he induced TO invest in
something that would not promise
early returns"
There are two ways open for the
accomplishment OF the object desired
by us all. One is TO have some pub
lic-spirited citizen. who is financially
able TO assume the burden, or to try
10 find some organization now owning
well-located buildings. to consent tC
enlarge or to add 10 their presen
holdings. so that the Chamber could
be provided with suitable quarters. Il
this could not be done. we would
recommend that the matter be defer

bership and income from membership
dues would admit of a further consid

Teach Things Of Value.

Where one has never made the ex-
pertinent Of leaving off coffee and
drinking Postum, it is still easy to
learn something about 1t by reading
the experiences of others.
Drinking Postum Is a pleasant way
out Of coffee troubles. A Penn. man
says:
my wife was a victim OF nervous
ness, weak stomach and loss of APP
petite for years; and although we re-
sorted to numerous methods for re-
lief. one Of which was a change from
coffee to tea, it was all to no purpose
ave knew coffee was causing the
trouble but could not find anything to
take its place until we tried Postum.
Within two weeks after she quit coffee
and began using Postum almost all OF
her troubles had disappeared as II by
magic. IL was truly wonderful. Her
nervousness was gone, stomach trou-
BILE relieved, appetite improved and.
above ALL a nights rest was complete
and refreshing.
This sounds like an exaggeration.

Plan to Enforce Their Demands by

Denver, Colo.-Twelve dollars q

some of the things the Housemaids'

bers.

women of Denver because they won't
wash their own clothes. We can rule
the women of Capitol Hill through this
failing of theirs the girls decided.
Plans to whip their mistresses into
line through their dislike OF greasy
dish water were made during the meet
ing.
The new union will call no general
strike. It's members will wear on
the nerves of the individual employer
until she comes to terms.
VIII Travel Light.
The women of Capitol Hill are to
be trained in the way they should go.
Maids who leave their Jobs once a
week, serve meals late, take no back
talk and demand the privileges for
which they have been asking In vain,
are going to do the training.
In order to carry out this plan Of
campaign many maids for mistresses
who are being trained" will rent a
house where they can live between
Jobs. The new cook or second girl
will never arrive at her employers
home with her trunk after this. She
will travel light. so she won't have to
be constantly paying to have her bag
gage hauled around the city. And
while she fits merrily from Capitol
Hill to Aurora her trunk will remain
safe and secure. locked in the baggage
room OF the union home. II she has
a child 1t will be cared for at the
home while she works.

are going to be blacklisted by the
union. At the Office to be opened
