Abd-el-Kader was present at Freemason'

Abd-el-Kader was present at a Freemason's
entertainment in Paris recently and made
speech, which although somewhat tautolog-
cal, will be interesting to the fraternity. He
said: "In the persons here present, | thank
Freemasonry in every country. | consider
Freemasonry as the first institution in the
world In my opinion every man who does
not profess Freemasonary is an incomplete
man. l hope that one day the principle of
Freemasonry will prevail throughout the whole
world and from that day forward all the ma
tons will be at peace"
