 man of the committee. Every effort | has been made to have MT. Chase | reconsider his resignation but he has not consented to do so and at this evenings meeting it is expected that his successor will be elected. MT. Chase who has been in i'll health for some time and due to this condition alone he was compelled to resign.
 Although unable to serve the com

 still be one of it's active workers and l in this capacity his advice and ser
 vices will be of great assistance to the committee. | A petition signed by 35 of the
