At the 23d annual convention of the
Springfield Diocesan Temperance Union
there are going to be some hot times
and the North Brookfield delegates are
going to kindle it. The convention is
TO DC at Westfield next month, and the
local delegates are George McQueeney
and Mortimer Bowling The grievance
of the North Brookfield men is that
the banner which justly belonged to
them was awarded to the Sacred Hearts
OF Springfield because that society had
the most influence with the field day
committee and the judges. The St
Joseph G. =. A. S. was particularly anx-
lous to carry off the banner to please
their president, Rev. James P. Tuite,
and when FIR. Tuite left the grounds at
Westfield shortly after noon yesterday,
he was sure that his boys were easy
winners. With the exception of the
supporters of the Springfield society,
the great mass of the 5000 people in at
tendance supposed that North Brook
field was to land the prize and this is
another thing which makes the St. Jo-
seph's feel they were buncoed. They
refuse to be satisfied with the special
mention which was so kindly given
them, to smooth over, as is were, any
injury to their feelings. The loyalty
of FIR. lutte to the society has made
the boys more staunch supporters OF
him thar ever. After his action of yes
terday in tramping five or six weary
miles with the society, he can have any
part Of North Brookfield over which
the c. T. A. boys have any claim,
whenever he says he wants it.
