Save money by reading today's ad An enthusiastic meeting of Pen dleton Chapter American Woman's League was held In the council room at 3 o'clock Monday afternoon Many points of Interest were discussed and it was unanimously agreed that all present should use their utmost endeavor to secure before February 1st, the required number of members 'to entitle the chapter to the erection of its chapter house. The fact that membership can now be obtained on comparatively easy terms, which are to be made much harder on and after February 1st, makes the members feel that the same effort expended now will be worth much more than It will be after that date.
