Except for oc- casional profit taking around mid day and for a brief period in the final hour, the progress was maintained throughout the day. and the closing was strong with a number of substan- tial gains.

MESA NOT ID LOSE
 COMMERCIAL CLUB

MESA. Sept 24.-At meeting of the Mesa Commercial club held yesterday afternoon it was unanimouly voted to continue the club as a necessary or ganiZation, viewed even in the light of the need of economy during the present era of the high cost of living.
 The meeting had been called to His- cuss other important matters in con- nection with the merchandising busi- ness under the present war conditions, and when this had been concluded, a report from Vera D. Johnson, the sec retary. set forth the fact that while the club had been useful to the public dur ing the bread card administration, yet there was not. no great attempt at con- munity promotion work during the war, and hence she was submitting to the club the question of whether or not the members desired to disband until the end of the world conflict. It developed that a certain number of inquiries about this section were coming in steadily and as expressed by o. $. Stapley, George A. Johnson, Dr. R. F. Palmer and others, it was ever neces- sary that an organization be maintained for the purpose of handling any ques- ton of public interest which might arise, and that the small expense to the members was but a light burden. Upon motion of J. w. Lesueur it was unanimously voted to continue the club as an active organization.
