DIRECTORS VOTE
CLUB WILL JOIN
NATIONAL BODIES

The East Moline Mems club will
be affiliated with the National
Chamber of Commerce and the Ma
tional Association Of Commercial
Secretaries, according to . decision
reached yesterday afternoon by the
board Of directors.
The matter of credit ratings for
the various firms in East Moline
was also discussed at the meeting,
but nothing definitely was decided,
and it was left for Ralph e. Stoltz,
secretary Of the club, to obtain
more concrete data on the operat-
ing expenses, ETC., Of the firms.
The directors also decided to dis
pense with the mid-monthly meet
ings of the membership Of the club,
previously held on the second
Thursday Of each month, and in
the future the club will meet but
once q month. This monthly meet
ing will be held on the fourth Mon
day Of each month.
In view Of the fact that q num-
Der Of merchants Of East Moline
make 1t . part Of their business to
rent dishes and cooking utensils,
the directors decided yesterday to
DO away with the practice Of loan
ing the clubs dishes to private in
dividuals or other organizations.
unless it is found that dishes are
unobtainable elsewhere in the city.
In that event 1t was deem.d wise
to charge q rental Of 10 per cent of
the retail price of the dishes, with
the express understanding that the
persons or organizations getting
the dishes would stand the loss due
to breakage.
The directors are we'll pleased
with the way things are proceed
ing with regards to the matters of
the club under the supervision of
Ralph E. Stoltz. The club rooms
have been remodeled somewhat and
Mr.. Stoltz has had better luck with
the telephone company than w. ].
Odendahl had and has succeeded in
getting = telephone installed in the
club rooms. The number of the
