hereafter there would be full compla-
ance with the Bylaws, and that the
meetings Of the Directors be held,
regularly, on the first and third Tues
days of each month, at eight P. M, in
the City Fire Hall.
There was a discussion Of the city
conditions, during the past year, and
the Executive Committee concluded
that much friction might be avoided
by free discussion It was, therefore,
declared to be the intention of the
meeting that, such Executive Com
mittee is open to any person who has
matters Of Importance to present to
the Commercial Club. After such
matters are presented, the Directors
Of course, will then expect to go into
executive session.
1t was decided that the general
meetings of the Commercial Club be
held subject to the call of the Pres
ident. Some discussion was had of
the proposition to have regular meet
ings of the Commercial Club, where
a simple lunch is prepared and serv-
ed, but no action was taken as yet
upon this matter.
The matter of radio interference
was brought up; one member of the
Council being present, it was indi-
Gated that the City Administration
expected to enforce the ordinance
prohibiting such radio interference.
but that it desired the checking of
radio interference throughout the
city, to be done with as little trouble
as possible.
The Executive Committee, there
fore recommended that a radio club
be formed by the radio-fans, and that
a local electrician be employed, an in
terference-detector purchased, and
that the City Administration be urg-
ed to enforce the ordinance prohibit
ing radio interference. And a meet
ing is therefore called, Of all radio

EXTREME IN
COMES
AFTER MILD WEATHER

After last weeks exceedingly bal
my weather which caused our huge
snow fall to turn into lakes and tor
rents of raging water, where no wa
ter has run for many moons, and
which also resulted in much damage
being done by the filling of scores of
easements in Plentywood, we are now
being treated to another encore Of
winter weather, and with nearly ten
inches of newly fallen snow we can
only hope that the temperature will
remain high enough to prevent the
usual blizzard which follows such a
snow fall.
1t. is a disappointment to almost
everyone here that roads will again
be blockaded, but we have the CON
ISOLATION that most of the frost is now
out of the ground and the present
heavy snowfall will soak into the
ground instead Of being carried away
by the streams. This should soak up
the ground to a depth sufficient to
give our crops a good start this
spring.

FARMERS OIL
BUILD FILLING
STATION AT REDSTONE

The Farmers Oil Company of
Plentywood have purchased a lot in
Redstone, Immediately north Of the
Westland Oil Company's filling sta
ton, and H. C. Jensen, manager of
the local Farmers Oil Company was
at Redstone on Monday to make ar
rangements for building a filling sta
ton and erecting tanks, preparatory
to engage in the wholesaling of gaso-
line and oils at that point.
Owing to the snowfall that started
Monday noon in the Redstone terri
tory and kept on all that day and
most of Tuesday, MI. Jensen decided
it would be out Of the question to
start work before there was a let up
in the weather and some dry ground
to work on, but it is intended to start
construction just as soon as possible.
