At the aec- )nd luncheon meeting ot the Polk oounty boosters at the Gail hotel held Monday noon, it was decided !. continue the gatherings indefi nitely.

The feasibility of giving a free show In Dallas each Saturday aft ernoon was gone Into. John C. Uglow, proprietor of the Majestic theater In Dallas, was In attend ance and spoke from his point ot view. He said that he had tried Saturday paid matinee and found that they will not pay. He an nounced that he was anxious to co-operate with the boosters and do all in his power to bring to Dallas the competitive trade ot the county. A committee consisting ot U. W. Thlessen, Paul Carpenter and J. C. Uglow was appointed to go further into the matter and re tort back. As tentatively out lined. It It Is possible to finance the deal, the plan Is to secure plodges to support the free shows lor at least two or three months.
