When it is re mem he re I that the ( banner represents the inventive | skill, and the patient labor of lo-'( cal men. wrought in their leisure v bourse, they motivated in their jf task by love to the Camp,' the Order, and the principles they embody, its value is enhanced a thou-sand-fold. Good fellow ship, mirth ami a re- , freshing measure "of hilarity pervaded the lodge-room as befitted ^ the occasion. The company were , in a festive mooil, with every jus- t John B.

At the ro-j! | quest of the chair, Caleb J.

Seemingly it was while partici- ' pating in the Hallowe'en Carnival ' ' that the need of a fitting emblem' to lead the Camp while on parade' was first realixed. ' Upon two occasions the Camp! I carried away honors in the- • upon the last, capturing' deservedly the first prize against • all competitors. The last achievement ultimately : consummated in the appointment1 ■ of a committee and determined efI to secure a banner at all costs.: As previously stated, the em-: : is in its entirety the work; - of the committee, the materials j - purchased by subscriptions raised • among the members. i Whereupon two members of the ' committee unveiled the superb ban- 1 ■ ner before the company, anil Mr. ' Collins officially presented it over, jto the Camp in the person of its ■ pcrsident, John B. Kirby. , In accepting the gift, Mr. Kirby, I voiced the pride and the pleasure! 1 (he members of the Camp experienced in the banner. In the' of the design, and the of execution, Mr. Kirby saw, a fitting emblem of the exalted: patriotism the order represented) and promulgated. The company arose and led j

again by Dr. Handley sang "Col- ' umbla the Gem of the Ocean." Washington Camp was signally „ honored for the occasion too, byL the presence of State President |, James T. Maxon. Pride in the or : j. der, love for the order, undivided . - ■ I allegiance to the order, and its ' n | noble principles courses through j , every vein of the State President's ® i body. His resume of what the Patriotic Sons of America had accomplished for the nation, and : ? what exercised its energies at the j ' ! present time to the same worthy ; ^ •lend was inspirational, and should r I have sent a thrill of pride through, " | every member's breast. Above all things the order was . ^ ; lieinding its influence and power to n , strengthen the hands of the gov- , ^ 1 1 ernlng bodies in the enforcement ■ jof law. ' i Education was a vital plank in ^ the platform of the order. Against j "jthe insidious attempts being made: * | to teach a perverted history in the ) " public schools, the order was con-j cent rating all its powers. The offi- L jciala of the order had canvassed : the State, and where deemed nec- ! ^ I essary hail petitioned the Boards ; P | of Education to remove certain " ';tcxt books from the schools. Furthermore the Patriotic Sons i of America had prepared a bill for f! presentation before the Legislature I ; which if it becomes law, would e | provide that no text book could be jused in any school maintained by , - _ public funds, except those approv- ! j ed by the State Board of Education. el This bill would preclude the pos-j sibility of any book inimical to the pi honor and prestige of America be-, e,ing used, and would also providel . g for all schools an uniformity of' t study in those subjects. The Patriotic Onler of the Sons v of America was, said Mr. Maxon, t ' the oldest patriotic organization, ■- with an unbroken record of 75 i. . years of valiant service to the na-i-'tion. It stood for the Flag, it |[ stood for. the Bible In the school, ~ c it stood for fraternity, and it (I stood for the laws of the land. It aimed to clean the channels e'of politics and government from . corruption, and to establish the worth of a man as a citizen, not 1 by what he has. but by what he a is and does. It was a masterly effort, Mr. y,Maxon's speech which all enjoyed. »: Dr. John Handley made an e'o-i-jquent and impassioned appeal in e! defence of the American Constitue , tion. The very essence of true pa- » i triotism, he said was fidelity to the d : constitution. The true patriot was d the man who stood for the constituion regardless of whether he d ; agreed with it entirely, or what

sacrifice- it might impose uponj Prohibition for example had he- : come a part of the American Con- ' stitutio". Yet whenever any i-ef-' erence was made to it, it inviivialily pri voked a snicker, a species of cheap wit and ridicule. Did the' ! persons who ridiculed prohibition, realize they were ridiculing the, 'constitution of the land, conduct : : utterly unworthy of a good patriot.! 1 No patriotic order is worthy of ! the name which doe* not uphold , the constitution. Then- ore men ! even in CqQgrc.-s who pour coir! tempt Upon ^fcwecry laws they I made and are supposed t" uIk-v , and enforce. Such persons werei I utterly unworthy if the nation's! j Dr. Handley concluded his stir- , ring speech with an earnest plea , ! that the Patriotic Sons of America' would always be found among: I those who defended at all cost, the 'nation's honor and law. Lewis Gandy was accorded ring- : ing applause for his -humourous ! I musical recital of the things which j i transpired in "My Home Town." ; Dr. J. Thornley Hughes was ; introduceil to the audience as a j prominent Rough' Rider, and his' nppcarance was immediately greetIcil with "Atta Boy" from the ranks of his fellow broncho-busters. Tell it not abroad, but the truth ! is, the genial pharmacist docs ocrupy a prominent position in the and is one of the arch- ; criminals in the sublime art of torturing tenderfcet in the cere- ! ■mony of initiation. Several of his (victims were present at the meeting, and found revenge very sweet , "in interrupting his speech with ."Atta Boy," "Hot Dogs,'" and other .mysterious phrases known only to Riders. It was peculiarly embarrassing when the doctor came to on im- • pressive passage in his speech to lienr a voice cry out "Some Story." ] But no doubt he deserved it, and 'has no ground for complaint. Despite the interruptions how•ever, Dr. Hughes stuck to his i'broncho heroically, and succeeded I in relieving himself of a splendid 1 address in which he extolled the 'order and its principles, i A humorous impromptu sketch, jantl some very cleverly executed : impersonations by Mr. jHillpole, closed f delightful eve-' ining'a entertainment, j Refreshments were served, after | which to a late hour the orchestra j , furnished music without end.
