CITIZENS DEBATE
DANCING AT FAIR
Stockholders Vote Down Bylaw
To Permit 1t; Henry. Shagren
Elected President

Whether to permit the us
of the buildings of the Whatcon
County Fair for dancing, was tn
question that occupied the entir
attention of the stockholders a
their annual meeting Tuesday a
the City Hall, and was left un
settled from many angles at thu
close.
The question came to vOt,
with the introduction of a mo
tion to add a new article to the
bylaws, reading as follows: 1.-THE
Board of Directors may permit
the use of the Fair Buildings
for dance purposes" The vote
on this stood Sc in favor, and
AZ against, but the motion did
not carry, as twO-thirds vote
is necessary to change the by
laws.
No further ballot was taken, as
the hour was late. One phase
that was not agreed on, was the
point as to whether the buildings
could be used for dances at var
ious times during the year, and
not at the Fair. 1t was pointed
out that many Bellingham organ
izations would pay for using the
grounds for picnics, if dancing
were permitted.
The question as to whether
proxies could be used at the
meeting, was argued at the open
ing of the meeting, and was de-
cided in the affirmative by the
chairman, e. Edison. Secretary
Bay had attached a proxy to
each notice sent the stockholders.
Many of these proxies had been
returned to the secretary, and
other members, and swung the
votes for directors and on the
dance question. Secretary c. B..
Bay voted 32 proxies, the major
ity of them from Bellingham
stockholders, who desired to cast
an affirmative vote on dancing.
Henry Shagren was reelected
president unanimously, and W..
H. NAPLES was named vice-pres-
ident and p. M. Serrurier treas
urer.
The following were placed in
nomination for directors: Mike
Wander Griend, Conrad Axling.
Henry Shagren, Ed Knapp, A. E.
Rusco, w. H. NAPLES, P. M. Ser
rurier, e. Edison, Harry Beer
mink, Henry Spaan, Ray Slade,
d. ]. Zylstra, Charles Galbraith,
George Worthen, George NAPLES,
Peter Schuyleman and B. c..
Crabtree.
OF these, on the first ballot,
w. H. NAPLES, Henry Shagren.
Ed Knapp, Harry Beernink, E..
Edison, and Charles Galbraith
were elected, with A. E. Rusco
and M. Wander Griend tied for
seventh place. On the final vote,
Mr.. RuscO was elected by a vote
of 81 to Al.
