The following address was deliv ' cred by Mrs. George T.

So after two years of work with this club, I feel a genuine re gret that my active part in its des tiny is at) an end, with many things Vet undone that we would wish to see accomplished. However, it with a feeling of relief, too, that the really hard work attendant upon the ollice will tall to other and more ca pable hands. As I told you frankly in assuming this ollice two years ago I knew nothing of Woman's club work except through occasional at tendance at a club meeting and some reading on the subject. Consequent ly my reign has been characterize! chiefly by main force and awkward ii ess. From the interesting reports of your ollicers you have heard in do tail ot our work this past year, Surely you must feel a iusliliahle pride in all the successful enterprises you have carried through. Not one thing attempted can be called a fail ure, and we feel we have achieved a decided success in equipping our club rooms as we have with this handsome piano, in furnishing our kitchen so completely. We have ev en made a modest beginning on the club silverware but there's a field for the next administration to cover. The women of Dallas at last have a pleasant down-town meeting place, where they may gather to settle questions of local and national im portance and where they may dis pense hospitality. Happily our endeavors have not begun and ended at home. We have reached out a helping hand to the work of the General Federation by a contribution to its endowment fund; have aided in the crusade against tuberculosis by selling Ued Cross seals; have furnished two rest Advertised Letters.

CITY COUNCIL GRANTS" THIRD LICENSE TO JAMES V. CHITTY BY VOTE OF FOUR TO THREE.

DALLAS, OREGON That's a Lot for a Word board. Mayor Van Orsdcl expressed himself as lieing very much in favor this line, new library building to the public at two big affairs one given to adults and one to the children of the town. The club members have most loyally supported the library benefit play, and the concert given by the organization of which, we are so proud the Woman's chorus. The older members have aided the girls in the pleasant parties they have given, and in every way have shown their loyal club spirit. Tn closing I wish to thank you one and all for your cordial .support of the ollicers, who could have done nothing without your able assistance. To those who have helped us be cause ot personal ineinisnip. as well as for the general good, let me len- ler again grateful thanks. And to lose few not altogether in ace nil with the present administration who have nevertheless in a broad, fine spirit put aside petty personal prej udices and taken up their allotted duties in a generous, gracious spirit, especial praise is due. It is utterly impossible for a hundred and thirly- seven of us with our natural femin ine limitations and our varied experi ences in life to think alike mid to be wholly united. It is best for the life of the organization that honest dif ferences do exist. Put out of these women s cluhs, where the tneiiiiiers are handed together tor mutual im provement and purposes altruistic there comes to the individual tha' great broadening, leavening power of seeing thing from more than one point of view, of accepting grace fully defeat or victory. To this nd it is best that ollieeis should frequently be changed and each member made to feel her individual responsibility. Let us continue to embody in our club life the motto of the General Federation, "Unity in Diversity." irexk II. geklixgki?. Seats on Sale Saturdav at. 9 (Mrs. O. T.)

On motion of Fenton all bids for the hauling of rock from the city quarry were rejected and the matter was left with the street committee with power to act. In this connec tion it was stated that possibly ar rangements might be made with a Corvallis or Independence company to secure gravel for the improvement of the city streets, rather than to use the rock from the quarry, as it might be secured much cheaper. The street committee will look this mat ter up and take whatever action they deem necessary and proper. In the matter of road and street improvement it was ordered, on mo tion by Fenton, that the street com mittee proceed at once to employ ! men and teams to do thegrading oil Kairview avenue and place the street; in conaiuon 10 receive- the rock or gravel. The question of the im provement of this street brought forth a general discussion of wheth er the city should improve county roads within the limits of the city from the funds received from the roao district, or whether the prop erty should be assessed as in other cases, but no definite action was taken.
