FIRST REGULAR MEETING
Of CREDIT BODY SUCCESS
EXCELLENT REPRESENTATION OF RAWLINS BlJSI-
NESSMEN HEARS HOW EXCHANGE WILL Fling
ton. BARRIER RAISED AGAINST FAKES

Drastic need for profitable and al
together common sense organization
on the part of every legitimate bust
ness interest in Rawlins for the pur-
pose Of conducting such business
along efficient lines is apparently a
dead issue in this city. For at a
meeting called in the Oddfellows hall
last Friday evening virtually every
line OF business ives represented, and
The Carbon County Credit Rating
Exchange in its first regular meet
ing made a vital bid for this COOP
Grafton.
Forty OF the members were pres
ent, II they were drawn from all
lines OF business in Rawlins. This
made the meeting truly representa-
tive. and gave a chance to get all
sides of the different questions which
came up for discussion.
The first business before the meet
ing was the adoption of a constitu-
ton and bylaws for the Exchange,
and this was presented and adopted.
Then h members were naturally
interested in h activities of the Ex-
change during the first four months
OF its existence and a detailed re-
port was made by the Officers of all
accomplishments. The greater part
OF the business meeting was devoted
to a discussion of methods of i'm
proving the work of the Exchange
and making II enter more closely into
the business activity of each member.
1t was decided to re-survey the
credit condition of this county at the
earliest time practicable, and after
some discussion the date of July list
was set for this operation. This will
give comparative data when checked
with the results of the survey on
Feb. l, and should prove of great
value to each and every member Of
the Exchange.
A resolution covering solicitors
was passed at this meeting. This res
o%lution offered the services of the
Board OF Directors to any or all of
the membership to determine for
them whether any proposition offer
ed was worthy of consideration. II
is felt that this will help to check the
large number of solicitors for all
kinds of worthless movements and
propositions. Lest there be any mis-
understanding of this resolution.

the Board will at no time attempt to
decide whether n solicitors PROPOSE

eide for himself whether he IL in

Scouts OF Rawlins, marching in at
nearly double quick time and taking
up their positions so as to form an
oval which quite filled the gym floor,
formed background for work put on
by different members of the order.
DR.. James A. Fraser. leader for the
afternoon, and Phil H. Gray, in
charge at the evening performance,
prefaced this exhibition by explana-
tons of what the Boy Scout move
ment consisted, and it's dierct appli-
cation to this city. These two men.
as Scout Master and Assistant, re.
spectively, have helped the boys Of
Rawlins develop what is perhaps the
finest Scout organization, opportun-
tiles considered, in this State. Ex-
ercises In signaling, first aid. knot
tying, boxing the compass. and SO
forth were applauded in a way which
showed that the citizens of Rawlins
are back Of this popular organiza-
ton.
The Maypole dance was very fine
and executed without a fault by girls
and boys OF the second grades. Boys
dressed uniformly in Knockers and
white shirts executed a rythmetic
dumbbell drill to music from a phon-
ograph. The third grades produced
a brownie song which for real spirit
Illness and excellent costuming was
outstanding among all the programs
offerings. Each girl or boy hoped
out upon the floor-just as brown
les have always hoped throughout
every corner Of the story book world
wheeled and pranced and sang
songs which took the audience by
storm. Every n was outfitted in
brownie suit with curled cap point,
and curving shoe tips.
The Junior High School girls max
ing up the physical education depart
ment gave a bar bell drill with all
the precision Of a crack military
team. Every girl was dressed in
black blomers and white MILDLY and
the ensemble was very effective. Two
songs entitled "Captives" and Con
q%uerors" were sung by the fifth
grades as the final attraction.
The order Of events was changed
somewhat for the evening. This per-
formance was especially well attend
ed and the children seemed to feel
the spur of such interest.
Much attention was paid the ex-
hibits shown in the class rooms on
the upper floors, especially the

the Board that he is presenting a le-
climate appeal.
After the business meeting was ad-
journed, the Secretary headed an in
spection party who went through the
Exchange offices and had the meth
DDS of handling the credit files ex-
planned to them. This gave some Of
the members a new conception of
what the Exchange is prepared to do
for each member, and it is felt that
still closer cooperation between the
members of the Exchange will re-
suit from the meeting and the tour
OF inspection"
Apparently the part Of the meet
ing which received the most enthus-
iastic welcome was the luncheon.
The committee had provided so many
different kinds of refreshments that
each one present could find Just
he wanted, and all did full justice
to the lunch.
Future meetings will be held
monthly, and 1t is urged hat a still
larger number of members be pres
ent at our ext meeting.
