Jack Wetzell, of the Dorland Adver-
Using Agency, was now introduced by
President Goslin and came forward
with a couple of entertaining stories
and then the President introduced the
speaker of the evening, Alfred E. HUT,
of the Federal Reserve Bank, of Phila-
delphia. Mr.. HUT was called on to
speak on Finance" and mentioned

Reserve Board in Washington works
with the banks throughout the coun-
try, and the banks themselves have
members on their Board of Directors
that represent the public in the states
and districts surrounding the bank.

scheme run by big men, and I hope
that you people will look at it, study
it and give it your support"
A resolution was here introduced by
Mr.. Woods calling for a committee Of
rs, to be made up of mayors and rep
resentatives of the different parts of
our Island, members of the various
organizations of the city and of Board
members, to work on the 10 points
adopted by the Board last veal and
which are to be completed by 1926.
This resolution brought forth some
little discussion, but was finally
passed with the added provision that
it be discussed again at the next
regular meeting. The resolution was
adopted by the Board of Governors
of the Board of Trade and will no
doubt become a favorite of the Board
itself after a further investigation into
it's qualities.
President Goslin now gave a few
words of advance information" re-

After these votes were checked over
by the Secretary the band gave a Sc
lection and the meeting was declared
adjourned. Sandwiches, pickles,
olives, coffee, ice cream and cake
were then served by the Senior Glass
of the high school. The money they
receive from the Board for this lunch
will go toward their fund for their
graduation trip to Washington. This
is the first time this procedure has
been tried out by the Board and the
school classes, but last Thursday
night proved so satisfactory to all
that it will probably be a regular duty
of the Senior classes Of future years
to supply the luncheon for all Board
of Trade meetings held in the high
school building.

was more than successful. 1t was a
fitting finale to the years work and as
to this work it is all summed up in
