0RA4ORY And music.
Robert Davis Association Holds
a Delightful Celebra-
ton.

Oratory, mirth and music prevailed at
last nights celebration of the anniversary
of W~ashington's Birthday by the Robert
Davis Association. This was held in the
frame church building at Grove and
Montgomery streets, recently occupied by
the Salvation Army. The auditorium was
crowded to the doors, and many were
turned away, unable to secure seats.
The auditorium, too, was a picture. The
walls were almost entirely covered with
American flags. The programme, after
the Grafton of the evening by DR.. Hen
bricks Of Bayonne, included piano seiec-
tons 'bysRrof. John Keefe. comic solos by
Prof. Berger, songs by Albert Stewart,
Connors and Harmon, Frank Harmon and
Edwin Barry, and last but by no means
least, Philip Heck, a noted local tenor.
Humorist Walter Smith during his turn
kept the audience roaring with laughter
witicisms.
MI. Christopher P. Smith was master
of ceremonies. Beside him on the plat
form sat Mr.. Robert Davis. Ex-Assem-
blyman Hoos. A; M. Henry and others
his GRAFTON D, c. C.. Hendricks said in
parts
"Washington's early surroundings were
a school for future usefulness pro-
logue for the great war drama which
established our liberties. A major atsthe
age of t~wenty-one. he endured all the
trials of warfare. At such an age, when
most Of us know only the warmth OF
the mothers lcaress or the fostering care
of a fathers love.
It is not my purpose, as It is the aim
of the detractors of Washington, to de-
preciate Lincoln in order to enhance the
fame OF our hero. ! think I am entitled
to say that the people and times-did not
wait for the coming of an, immortal Lin
coin, but a Lincoln waited for the times
ton.
Il recognize the humanity of Lincoln
in Hberating the blacks, but can't forget
that Washington liberated the whites,
and that although lincoln preserved the
union of States we should not forget the
soldier and statesman who established
them, and 1 have no objection but rather
rejoice that the blacks call Lincoln their
patron, if they will not deny to me the
right and privilege Of calling Washington
Father"

A report is current that when the
Queen celebrates the completion of the
longest reign on record in the history of
Great Britain. her Majesty will create
many new peerages in tftular rank, and
will confer minor honors freely. The re-

COSMOS ENTERqAINS
Odd Volumes Club the Guests
at the Washington
Dinner.

The ladies of the Odd Volumes were the
guests of the Cosmos Club at the annual
dinner in the Hotel Washington last
night in honor. of Washington's Birthday.
The dining hall was most beautifully
decorated. W~ashington's bust over the
fireplace was artistically draped with the
flag he created and the walls were COW
ered with the Stars and Stripes. The
tables were adorned with smilax and. the
menu cartes were themselves a work of
art, with their tiny satin flag and portrait
of Martha Washington. AS for the din
ner itself, Mr.. George Linn took care that
it was up to the high standard of the
hotel named after the Father Of his
Country.
Major z. X. Pangborn, President of
Cosmos, when coffee was Feached-Ces-
mos eschewed cigars last night-welcemed
the ladies of the Odd Volumes in one of
his happy speeches. He gently had a
little fun with the Odd Volumes apd
made, as he always does, q bright and
entertaining speech put of nothing.
To the welcome of Cosmos Miss Cecilia
Gaines, President of the Odd Volumes.
replied, and b talked at great length
about her Ideals of Heroes, beginning
with days of old, when knights were
bold and barons held their sway. and
the country was filled with wandering
gentlemen in iron suits and metal pots on
their head, burning with zeal to deliver
lovelorn maideHs from ~tyrannical papas,
to the present gallant knights of Cosmos,
ahem, to which she paid a well merited
compliment. Oh, wha dear, nice men
those of Cosmos were, and the Odd
Volumes rustled their leaves in approval
of the praise.
Mr.. Frank Q. Cole gave a military turn
to the feast by describing Washington as
a soldier and in this Mr. Cole achieved a
great success.
But the honors of the evening fell on
Mrs. John A. Walker, who in an ad-
mdrable speech spoke on the Future of
America as Instanced by It's Past" It
was a scholarly, scientific speech, Which
created the greatest pleasure and con-
WINGED Cosmos that it has not a monopoly
of fine speakers. Mrs. Walker was loudly
~applauded.
Then Mrs. Howard Slater and Mrs.
hobart sang and the next speaker was
Mrs. G. B.. Eaton, who made a most ex-
cellent address on the Relations of
Washington with the Indians" and this,
teo. was much applauded.
Another speaker was expected but he
did not appear, and after an Informal
chat the Star Spangled Banner" was
sung and the diners put on their rubbers
and mackintoshes, seized their umbrellas
and rushed out into the rainy, dark night.
