ANNUAL MEETING.

Y work in conjunction with the
ladies' o. the various communi.
ties who were deeply interested
in thiS work and knew more
about it than we did.
There being some question as
TO Wheeler Il formal motion would
he necessary to constitute such Il
committee, to be on the safe side
M. Brandt proposed such Il
re ;OlutiOn to the effect that Il
permanent committee for this
pn pose be appointed by the pres
i1cnt in making up the new com
mitteeS, which was unanimously
passed.
TryW ont Dead
IIDGd Committees
There was considerable more or
less serious pleasantly in regard
10 dc number of the regular COM
mitceH, which were as plentiful
as fallen leaves in Autumn, and
just about as useless, and Mr..
tl eatham moved that the whole
blooming lot of them be cancaled
and that we start all over again
with committees that would do
something. This however was
felt to be too drastic departure,
and tie president suggested, un-
de" his breath, that he thought
perhaps he could put some new
'rrp' into most of them.
Restitution Of Condolence
Mr.. Brandt suggested the fit
ness and propriety of this body
passing resolutions of apprecia-
tion of the stirling personal quail.
ties and public usefulness of the
la,e y. :. Wilcox, and of sympa-
thy with his family in their
bereavement. He made Il motion
10 that effect which was carried.
Demand for Banquet Session

time to get back to our old Gus
tom of an occasional banquet
session. The war was over now
and Il reasonable amount of
social and festive activity was in
order.
Mr.. Brodie wanted to make it
Il picnic or luau in the open, with
nature in the background. and
with a fine flow of spirits and IA
good time for everybody.
Mr.. Nahum suggested that it
be at Waimea at the time of the
next regular meeting in October.
This suggestion met with gen.
elGll favor and Messrs HOfgaard,
Nahum and Silva were appoint
ed Il committee to arrange and
handle the whole affair. which
was finally set for Saturday even
ing October Is, at the Waimea
hotel.
hokce POpular,-but the ROad
Mr. Cheatham spoke of the in
creasing popularity of the Kokee
Summer Camp region. While he
was up there recently, there had
been Il gathering one evening, at
the Augustus Knudsen camp, of
no less than = people. The great
problem about the place was the
road. Owing to the long cOntin-
ued dry weather it had become
impossible for any but light ma.
chimes. The dust holes were get

have to be gone over and mate.

season., and there was no use
trying to do that until rain came
to pack the dry dust down.
SI0O0 t0r Repairs
He would beg to make motion to
the effect that the County Super
viSorS be requested to eXpend up
to say $1,000 this coming winter,
or whenever the rams came, un-
der the supervision and accord

nent man of intelligence and
Judgment, who declared that the
S3O,O0O appropriated wouldn't
make Il beginning on ii road up
there, that it would cost 5000, 900,
and his suggestion was to invest
that $4,000, say at SO, and
spend the $500 income every
year in keeping the road in decent

Mr. Brandt expressed his
hearty approval of Il passable
road up there, and as one member
