R. E. Sherman, president of the bord, assured the representatives of the chamber of commerce that the realty board would cooperate in making the annual exposition a success. Mr. Sherman will appoint a committee of three to act with committees from other public semi-public organizations in planning the organization of the association.

Upon motion of A. H. Anderson, the board voted to purchase stock in the association with half the commission of the sale price of the exposition site, nt 100 000 Committees from other organizations of the city will be appointed within the next week to act with the commission, which will be in charge of the exposition plans. This commission will decide upon the site to be purchased, and the campaign to sell stork in the association. The commission will number from 25 to 50 business men.

Several pledges to buy from $1000 to $1500 worth of stock already have been made. The association probably will be capitalized at 100 000 most of which will be paid up stock.

Among the eight new dance selections for November, we unhesitatingly point to the new McKee Orchestra creation as the best. If you like good waltzes, we can assure you that this is nearly as good as the famous compositions of Strauss, though much more modern, and better adapted to the new dances. yearning1 For (McKee) McKee's Orchestra Irresistible Waltz (McKee) McKee's Orchestra 12-in. $1.2 5 Billy Murray 18132 On the Beach at Waikiki Wright and Dietrich 10-h I Ml) Luau Girl Wright and Dietrich 75c m.
