The Mountaineer 11 



REPORT OF PROGRAM COMMITTEE. 



During the entire year the committee was continu- 

 ously favored with valuable suggestions from members 

 for available programs, and every request of the com- 

 mittee, whether upon members or otherwise, was cheer- 

 fully and acceptably complied with. We desire to 

 thank the membership of the club, both for assistance 

 in the recommending of persons to take part, and for 

 the attendance and evidence of appreciation of the 

 programs submitted. 



In January, Mr. Samuel C. Lancaster entertained 

 the club with views and descriptions of scenes visited 

 by him upon his recent tour of Europe. The club met 

 in the new assembly hall of the Chamber of Commerce 

 in the Central Building for the first time at the Febru- 

 ary meeting. After the electricians of the club had 

 succeeded in solving a difficult problem in obtaining 

 electric power for the stereopticon, we heard an inter- 

 esting and amusing talk on Japan and its people by 

 Miss Adelaide Pollock, illustrated by views collected 

 by her while there. 



At the March meeting our president, Prof. E. S. 

 Meany, recounted various "Stories of Chief Joseph and 

 other Indians," in his usually hai)py style, and ex- 

 hibited numerous curios from his collection. Mr. Grant 

 Humes showed an entirely new set of pictures of wild 

 animal life in the Olympics, at the April meeting. The 

 May meeting was given over to the Outing Committee 

 and we were given a forecast of the summer's outing, 

 through pictures taken by the committee on the prelim- 

 inary trips. 



The list of programs is completed by an interesting 

 and instructive talk by Hon. A. E. Griffin upon the 

 early history of the Pacific northwest.
