Congressman w. O. Atkeson de-
livered a very interesting talk, which
he commenced by telling OF the beat

side while congress is in session. He
told about the beautiful and magniii-
cent buildings which in his Opinion
surpass any buildings in the world
the hall of fame in which may be
found the pictures OF our forefathers
who battled with the problems of their
day in order that our u. S. might
grow and prosper from mere hand
ful OF people to the present 100 mil

The Congressman told how the
various bills introduced for passage
meet defeat; how they are passed at
ter long discussions and how both
parties after all work hand in hasd
for the benefit. and progress of our
land.
Millions and millions the Club was
told were appropriated and expended
within the last year. The expanding
of this money in the congressman S
estimation was absolutely imperative
to put Our country back to normally.
Mr.. Atkeson's speech was enjoyed
immensely by all those present and
after hearing the good sound bust
ness talk, mixed with a little comic
we will no doubt seek the oppor-
tunity to hear him again.
