Optimism and good fellowship were the dominating thoughts expressed In the toast program presented at th first annual banquet of the Singer Outin cluli, given Thursday niht In thf club rooms and attended by 130 HK-ml.ris of the club and tlu'ir gucts. "Happiness." the toast given by T. I). Walling, who appeared first on tho program follow ing the four course banquet, put the diners in a mood whirh forbade pessimism over alleged hard times, and insured the success of the affair at tho start. "Con.sider the fat man." said Mr. W'alling, "and grow wise. He personifies the spirit of happiness better than any other example I might cite. Kvery move, lie make.-? and every word he utters radiates gladness. "The idra some people have of heaven Is ronfined entirely to the idea of the streets being paved with grid. In gold they seek happiness, hut inMcad they discover that it is not to he bought or sold, hut costing nothing to them go after it in the right way. Is a sadder .Man. "sV.me proud chieftain paves Ids way to glory in war with the skulls of men, and thinks that he is happy, hut in his emitter musings, when the heat of battle ix past, he knows that he h is missed his goal, and is a sadder man than the general whom he has forced to bow In defeat. "Happiness is found, not in war, not in wealth, hut in the conseiounes3 of duty faithfully done. Virtue cannot be defrauded of her rewards, nor can vice he deprived of her toll. Happiness will flee from a palace to dwell In a hovel, and will scorn a prince to go to a peasant." An excellent description of conditions In Russia was given by W. A. Davidson, who recently returned from a trip of inspection of the Singer factories in the old country. H" told of his trip through England. Ireland, Germany, France and llelgiiim while on his way to Russia, Kiving graphic accounts of Ieige, Hrussels, Herlin. London and other places .".bout which there is a special interest since the opening of the war. Relates His KxpoHonoos. According to his observations, the people of Russia are happy, prosperous and progressive, and in many ways MUite. unlike the general conception of them. II- described the workmen in several of the linger plants in different parts of Russia and German, and related some of his queer experiences in living among a people with whose language he was unfamiliar. Z. Hamilton of New York gave a short talk, congratulating the club on its success in the many lines of activity which it has entered. He represented the executive office of the Finger company, located at New York. Several of the members of the club contributed impromptu speeches. The evening's program was: "Happiness."

Fluctuations in the provisions market has divided interest with the sensational rise in wheat during the past few days in local markets.

Due to the mild weather, egg prices are beginning to drop, a decline of 3 cents being registered here .during the last three days. Reports from Cleveland tell of a nine cent drop in the egg markets there, while similar conditions seem to be prevailant all over the country. As a result of the steady rise in hay and grain prices during the last three weeks, butter is started on an upward movement here, "prices quoted Thursday night being one cent in advance of Wednesday's figures. Advices coming from local provision men Thursday night state that fruit and dvegetables which will begin coming Into the city from the south in the near future will he unusually high. Grocers are advising a greater use of canned goods, being unwilling to take the risk of handling the high priced imported green stuff in any large quantities.

SPEAKER

CLARK

TO KEEP HIS JOB Is Reelected By Democrats in Caucus While Claud Kitchin of North Carolina is New Floor Leader. WASHINGTON, Feb. o. The democrats who will compose the house of representatives in the next congress in a noisy caucus tonight chose Champ Clark as their candidate for speaker and Claud Kitchin of North Carolina for floor leader to succeed Oscar Underwood, who will go to the senate. .Speaker Clark never received greater applause on the house floor than that which wad given him after he had been nominated by Rep. Uoyd of Missouri, and elected by a unanimous yell. When the noise had died away he warned his colleagues who will have but a slim majority in the next house that "the future of the party was tied up in the 6 4th congress." He gave them a warning against the absenteeism which has marred the record of the present majority. Rep. Kitchin nominated by Rep. Page of North Carolina, made a sweeping promise when he said: "I intend to be present on this floor during every hour of the next session." Although Kitchin today voted against the president's veto on the immigration bill, voted for free tolls and Is opposed to another administration bill, the ship measure, he mentioned the president in glowing terms in a speech in the caucus. Rep. Fitzgerald of New York pledged the democratic delegation to support the speaker and the newleader. The startling feature of the election of new members of the ways and means committee was the preponderance of thtl vote for John J. Casey of Wilkesbarre, Pa., over that for John J. Lesher of Sunbury, Pa. Lesher was backed by Rep. A. Mitchell Palmer of Pennsylvania, while Casey was backed by the anti-Palmer element. Other new members of the committee were Charles R. Crisp. Georgia: W. A. Olcott. Arkansas; Alfred ii. Allen. Ohio: R. J. McGillicuddy, Maine, and Guy T. Helvtning. Kansas. K. W. Saunders of Virginia was chosen chairman of the caucus after a hot contest with M. R. Foster of Illinois,
