Members of the Citizens and Tax

met and decided to form permanent
organization for the purpose of
furthering any improvements what
sover for the community's good. 1t
was decided to adopt new name for
the league In the future it will be
known as The Hamilton Welfare
League. Communications were sent
out to ninety-fve church, labor and
lodge organizations, inviting them to
appoint and send three delegates as
representatives.
About one-half of the organizations
invited responded, and at meeting
held last week at the labor temple,
there were about $50 delegates pres
ent with credentials showing their
appointment by their different organi-
zations. Louis F. Nau and III. B.

secretary respectively. Talks were
made by several present and plans
outlined. One of the subjects discuss

of the most worthy causes ever
broached in this city. For be it re-
membered that every dollar of profit
made on the show goes toward estab-
fishing the proposed summer camp

There will be no free list at the
Jefferson, Tuesday night Even the
employees, such as ushers, ticket tax
ers, stage hands, etc., who in addition
to volunteering their services have
agreed to purchase tickets of admit
tance. Not "dead-head" of any kind
will be admitted. The management
has generously donated the theatre,
the employees are donating their serv-
ices, the Nonpareil Printing Company
donated the cards of advertising and
printing of tickets; in fact, there will
be no expense except that which is
paid the fighters and they are making
but small charge.
1t is gratifying to note how all con-
cerned seem more than anxious to
contribute to the success of this grand
cause. That it's success is assured is
beyond doubt. There are still few
tickets to be had, and those desiring
to help should get their tickets with
out delay.

was elected delegate to the convention
of the international Alliance of The
atrical Stage Employees, which will be
hel dat the Gibson hotel, Cincinnati,
week of May 19. This convention is
held biennially and this is the second
time in succession that the convention
is being held in Cincinnati, due to its
central location, and it might be added
much through the efforts of Delegate
Scheaf. Scheaf has been great
booster for Cincinnati in this instance.
Further honors have been thrust
on Scheaf, for just as soon as it be-
came known that he was named dele
gate by his local union, Cincinnati
Local No. 5 elected him member
of the committee to arrange for the
big session News of his appointment
on this committee came on Tuesday
of this week from William Elliott, 3rd
vice president of the international and
business agent for the Cincinnati
local
This appointment will require the
presence of Delegate Scheaf in Gin
cinnati week previous to the con-
vention. Just another case of a good
man being in demand at all times.
Jack fills the bill.
