Mayor Lerou was warmly greeted by vigorous hand- clapping while all in the audience stood. | In behaif of the city, I extend Mr. Sokdlow a most hearty welcome, sald Mayor Lerou. It is mot necessary to state that you have the support of all the Jewish people in our city, along with the 60,000 other Jewish people in the state. It is gratifying to me that your appeal to the American people has met approval in Washington. 1 congratuiate you In the restoration of Palestine and Wish you every success in the movement.

Taftville Athletic Association has re- ceived a check for $100 from Ponemah Mills, which is very encouraging to the directors and members of the As- sociation. The drive for members has been going very slowly, owing to the heavy drain of other drives on the purses of the village inhabitants. Now that this substantial amount has been added to the treasury, those in charge of the drive, feel that the people should show their appreciation, and help support the Taftville team which gives a great deal of sport and enter- | tainment to local fans. | "John Youngs has left town.
