The discussions were only lively enougl

without acrimony.
The Sons of Veterans did quite a 11
business , but this has already been notl

jlggest innovation was in the establlshir
of a relief fund for funeral expenses and
rendering assistance to the families of.
ceased brothers. This fund will be kept

whenever a death occurs. The plan

Another Innovation was inaugurated

will mcej together next year. The cnca
ments and meetings will occur at Nor :
