before his term of office expires. The
new systems that he has installed in
the place are commendable and appre-
ciated and shows that the year will
be a great year for Local 208.
The Board of Directors is made up
of fine material. These men are just
in their rulings and loyal to their
oaths of office. Entire new Office fix
lures have been installed in the gen
eral Offices and a lady accountant is
in constant attendance, looking after
the daily business of the local. This
is all the work of Mr.. Smith and his
board of directors and from all angles
it looks like this is going to be the
best administration that the local has
ever had.
