The Wurra Wurra Club

With very few exceptions good many of the vacant seats were occupied by absentee members who were not present. But after that there was no further disturbance. The motion to adjourn was offered by Con Hitchcock, and unanimously voted however, that was at the end of the session, when the crowd went home. The Opening Ode was sung, by request, by Vic Coe, in a sort of mezzo. dramatic tone without much music into it, and he was ac- companied by Rob. Peirce on his chromatic scales. But before that Mir. Herriman, IA. H., read the minutes of the previous meeting, which was after the roll had been called by the secretary. The meeting was called to order by the president, MT. Joe Par sons, promptly on time.
 Mir. Farnum moved that the Litch. field County Health Association be in. vited, through its secretary, pr. Lee, to hold the next semi-annual meeting at the Club-rooms, on some regular meeting night, so the members of the Club may get the benefit of the dis cussions. The motion was seconded by Henry Ives.
 The fat member objected, however, on the ground that he wasn't in favor of health officers, lon gin 'ral principles. We don't have no more health than we had before we ever had any health officers, but we do have a dunn sight more meddhn' !n our prnate affairs, an tn health officer is big help to our spiteful naybors that may have a grudge ag'in' us am hain't got th' grit t work it off, theirselfs. All they got t do is t complain that our rooster crows too airly in tn mornin', or that our pigs squeal too loud, or that our children acts mumpy, or that our back. yard wants rakin', am so on, an tn majesty of tn law climbs up on our back an begins pullin' our hair. I'm do n Il on tn motion
 The motion was put to vote and carried overwhelmingly.
 Judge Ford got up to move 'that the Club authorize Delegate. at. large J. Henry Roraback to assure the national pledges itself to Loyalty support the nominees of the convention, and to go to the polls in body and vote for them, regardless of what the platform may be, or whether it stands for pre-. paredness, peace at any price, neutrality or hostility"
 The fat member hoisted himself up onto his feet so suddenly that he al. most lurched over the seat in front of him anI CfnrFaI fp nhipnt rrIn ,.l,a air took the job off his hands, however, and ordered the secretary to record a fine of $l00 against the Judge for in. fraction of the Club rule forbidding the introduction of any subject likely to plecip:tate a political discussion in tue Club. The Judge gave the secre tary his note for the amount of the fine.
 On motion of MT. Ed. Warner it was unanimously voted that the Club attend the Norfolk concerts all three nights, in body, and occupy the front seats.
 Mayor J. .. Roraback moved that the secretary communicate with so ne film company with a view to having a session of the Club photographed for production in the movie show. He promptly amended his own motion to provide that the pictures be taken some night when Judge Ford is in the chair and Clarence Humphrey is discussing woman suffrage with John $. Reed. The motion as amended was seconded by Mir. Lyles, and was unanimously passed.
 Session closed in due and ancient form.
