Twenty-seven states were repre

The affair was the first of its kind
to be held in France and was marked
by the close fellowship of men far
from home under war conditions.
Practically every part of the United
States was represented, and In the
several Impromptu speeches which
were made Masonry, its Ideals and
obligations, was presented in prac
tically all of Its phases.
The Rev. A. W. Wishart. D. D . a
loyal Mason and at present encaged
In army Y. M. C. A. work, made a
masterly address on "Masons and
Armageddon," in which he presented
the duty which Americans in France
have to uphold the honor of their
country not only in conflict on the
field of battle, but In their personal
relationships among themselves and
with the French people.
Songs, both those of long standine
at home and the new ditties which
have sprung from the facile pens of
soldier poets since the boys landed,
ml round after round.
The menu was all that could be
desired and, for a wartime prepara
tion, did great credit to the art of the
i.ropi ietress of the little hall by the
teON of the ocean where the bamiu t
was held.

quenching qualities the pleasure it gives comes
from its flavor, purity and wholesome nutritious

To get full pleasure out of Dutch lunches, Welsh
rarebits, oysters, clams, lobsters, sausage, cheese
and many other such delicious edibles, Bevo
should be included.
You will find Bevo at inns, cafeterias, restaurants,
groceries, department and drug stores, soda foun
tains, dining cars, steamships, canteens, soldiers'
homes, navy, and other places where refreshing
soft drink beverages are sold.

the sidewalks in the city, as regards
the city ordinance concerning ex
pectorating on the sidewalks and
in public places. Mr. Fisher did not
use the work expectorate, but said
just plain "spit." It was decided
that signs would be posted about
town calling attention to the fact
hat It was a practice contrarv to a
city ordinance to 'spit" on the sub
walks, and after the elapse of a few
days to follow this movement with
"wholesale arrests," as s result of
wlmh th city treasury would be
Kiently benefited and the sidewalks
would be left In much better condl
tion. As a consequence, those of

this practice, take heed, and dlscnn
