CTTY BOOSTERS GET REINFORCEMENTS

Thirty New. Members Elected By Commercial Club. Many Pro­

jects Discussed. Last night's meeting of the Willmar

Commercial Club marked a red letter date in the history of this organiza­tion of town boosters. No less than thirty new members were elected. Credit for this handsome addition to the number of-citizens who are will­ing to stand up and be counted for pushing the collective interests of the City of Willmar is largely due to the efforts of Hildar Hoglund, of the com* mittee' on membership. The new members elected last night are the following: Messrs. Oscar Lundquist, Victor Klingenberg, John L. Grue, Oscar E. Hedin, Russell Ackerman, Hugh Campbell, Oscar R. Zahr, George Arntzen, Paul L. Hedin, W. C. Hog­lund, H. G. Lonien, Henry Morrell, John Sandin, David Peterson, V. E. Fridlund, August Lundquist, E. F. Bergquist, Alt H. Holm, Andrew Nel­son, Severt Benson, A. J. Nelson, H. R. Croak, Garfield Cutts, Peter Poar-son, J. E. Bergstrom, A. J. Molander, Chas. Nelson, Henry E. Johnson, Ed. Sanderson and N. S. Swenson. Presi­dent Gilbert extended the thanks of the Club to Mr Hoaglund for his ef­forts and welcomed the new members in a few well put remarks.

The Club went on record us unanni-mously favoring bills pending in the legislature in regard to having a part of the gross earnings taxes paid by the railroad diverted to the munici­palities thru which the roads run, also permitting the assessment of the railroads corporations pro rata for local improvements on streets and roads abutting to their property.

The Garden Contest Committee re­ported on last year's activities, thru Messrs. Rodegeb and Foster. The four contestants standing the highest were: Mauritz Nelson, 1st; Ruby Ot-terness, second; Anna Overgaard, 3rd; and Knute Kiland, 4th. A more com­plete report will be prepared and print­ed shortly. An appropriation of $25 was made for prizes for next year, and John Ruddy was added to the committee to have the 1919 contest in charge.

The matter of a suitable memorial for Kandiyohi County soldiers and sailors was referred to the committee appointed at a recent meeting to ar­range for a suitable reception for re­turned soldiers, which committee Is headed by Supt. G. A. Foster.

President Gilbert reported that three conventions have thus far accepted invitations to come to Willmar this summer. The first of these is Nord-landslaget, a large Norwegian gather­ing which it is expected will bring a thousand visitors to our city on June 23 and 24. The second convention is that of the Minnesota Association of Letter Carriers, July 11 and 12. A third convention is that of the State W. C. T. U. meeting. Negotiations were authorized for securing next winter's Minnesota Crop Improvement Convention and Show, such as held at St. Cloud last month. The matter of celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the location of Willmar was re­ferred to the Publicity committee.

One of the most important discus­sions at last night's meeting was in regard to the securing of a permanent hitching place and accommodations for farmer's teams. It was reported that the Swillen lots opposite the wholesale grocery and adjoining the oil plant might be purchased for this purpose. There are seven 25-foot lots, making a space 150x175 feet. There are four minor buildings on the same that might be untilized, it was sug­gested, one as a home for a caretaker and one as a rest room. Mr. Ed. Benson stated his belief that the Co­operative store and elevator compan­ies would contribute a thousand dol­lars towards the purchase of the property for that purpose. After con­siderable discussion, all of which was favorable to the project, the matter was referred to the committee on pub­lic improvement for further investiga­tion and action. Secretary Stanford stated that he had corresponded with Senator Gandrud in reference to hav­ing the bill pending to require cities to provide rest rooms amended to also authorize towns to acquire hitching grounds.
