COMMERCIAL CLUB IN ANNUAL MET
All Officers and Members of Executive Committee Elected to Serve Anoth- CT Year-Rain Interfered With
 the Attendance.

As per notices sent to each and ev- cry member, the Mena Commercial Club held it's annual meeting and cleo tion of officers last night at the Star Hall. The rain which came just be- fore time for assembly, caused many members to remain away, but those who came were we'll repaid by the good words spoken and the added en- couragement from a recital by F. J. Smith, the general secretary, of the good that had been accomplished and the ideals and plans for the future. This talk was a wholesome, heart-to- heart recital of Mena's affairs, her needs and her ambitions, and general ly speaking, was an outline of the "Unscheduled Assets" that it falls to the Commercial Club to develop.
 Recording Secretary MacLafferty reported on the financial status of the club, which he stated was better than at any previous period, and remarked the fact that when the recent quarter ly payments were asked of the mem bership, no man failed to pay, and, better yet, no man had voiced word of grievance at the club, it's manage ment or it's general secretary
 After MT. MacLafferty's report each of the members present was called in turn to make any remarks, suggestions or criticisms, and the response was most gratifying. At the close of this, the election of officers and executive committee was taken up and when the various nominations had been made and the ballots all count ed it was escertained that all those who had carried the inside work of the last year had been given "a vote of confidence" all having been re- elected. They are:
 President, D. E. Dodd
 Vice President, V. W. St John.
 Recording Secretary, W. s. Mac Lafferty.
 Treasurer, J. T. Magruder.
 Members of the Executive Commit tee-R. Golf, W. E. Watkins, J. L. Hagan. Ira o. Smith, J. B. Goss.
 When the results had been an- nounced a general discussion develop ed the fact that one of Mena's assets that was in the worst shape in history so far as being realized on was con- cerned, this the matter of providing accommodations for the great num- Der of visitors who would seek to spend the coming summer here. No definite plan for meeting the situation was formulated.
 During the session c. H. Daddy Davis keep all the lovers of the fra grant weed supplied with good cigars, and at the end provided over the good coffee, fat andwiches, pickles, etc.
 A feature of the opening hour was the offering by Mrs. J. H. Thackston, Hubert Smith and J. W. Gardner, jr., of four beautiful musical numbers, which drew an enthusiastic rising vote of thanks.

 CAN'T SUPPLY DEMAND.

Someone speaks of preventing any shortage of home grown sorghum" in Polk county. All mistake. It can't be done. If all Polk county was plant ed to cane and all the cane was made into sorghum of the real Polk county sort, there still would be shortage. Recall recent occurrences few days after the seasons supply had been sold, the biggest seller had a telegram calling for two carloads. Properly handled, all the sorghum Polk county can make will only sup ply few of those who would buy it if they could.
