stowed an honorary membership on
j one whom they considered eligible.
| The society meets this afternoon at
I the residence of Mrs. Cram, and
the honorary memlier has lieen
j requested to ap|a-ar. Lucky man.
| A meeting of the Valdez Social
Cluh will be held on Friday even

for the purpose of reorganizing the
cluh. A new start will he made, so
that all who imagine their memlicr
ship has lapsed for nnn|>ayment of
dues, will la; welcome, and hv sub
scribing their names to the new
roll, will commence paying dues
from that time. It is hoped that
this organization will not l>e allow
ed to die out. Oscar Fish. I1 res.
