At Burntside Lodge.

The Rotary Club met at Burnt
side Lodge Wednesday evening for
one of the most pleasant meetings
of the season. Host Alden had pre-
pared very elaborate meal of fried
chicken and accessories to which all
did ample justice. The table had
been most artistically decorated and
birchbark place cards embellished
with evergreens and wild rose pods
marked the places. The club has as
their guests, the graduates of last
year who We're leaving to attend
other institutions of learning. The
meeting was presided over by Harry
E. White. William Gallagher spoke
of his initiatory school work at
Carleton. Principal Pierce made a
short talk and Esther Hegforce gave
a reading. Each member of the
Club sponsored one of two of the
honored guests and introduced his
portege, telling of their aims and
at what school or college they in
tended to further these aims. This
method of introduction was neat
and novel and tended to relieve the
tension on the guests whose invita-
ton TO speak might have proven EN-
barrassing. Owen w Parker, a
new member was present for the
first time. BILLY" West of Vir-
ginia was visitor and Miss HARRISON
and Principal Pierce were guests of
the Club.

GILCHREEST PICKED
AS CITY INSPECTOR
Prominent Local Man Elected By City
Commission to Fill Office of
Building Inspector.

John c. Gilchreest, for many years
prominent builder Of the city, was
appointed building inspector at a
meeting of the building commission
last evening. A ballot was taken among
The members OF the com mission, and
Mr. Gilchreest received three votes to
Edward j. Hennessy's one. He will
assume the duties of his office on De-
cenber 5, until which time Arthur N.
Rutherford will continue to act.
The salary of the second assistant
electrical inspector was fixed at $3.50
instead of $500 as favored by the
commission at recent meeting. The
mayor thought that $1,000 was suf-
ficient sum, so a compromise was eff
lected, and voted upon.
Mr.. Rutherford reported four VIOLA
sions of the building lines about the
city, apd felt that action should be
taken to compel respect for the lines
as established. Commissioner john
son suggested that the city engineer
furnish a copy of the building lines to
all persons erecting buildings in the
city.
