Davies Post Inspection Proved to
Be All That Was Desired to Make
It Rem rendered as the Best Exem-
plification of Ritual Work Seen in
This City.

ON "Wednesday evening Davies post
headquarters was crowded with COM
rades who had assembled to partici-
pate in the annual Grand Army inspec-
tior. Among the visitors there came
from Scranton Il large delegation
from Ezra s. Griffin post to witness
the work of Commander McConb, and
to make Il fraternal call on the menu
berS of the order in this city.
From information gathered from re-
liable sources it is admitted that Col
oncl McComb has infused new life in
Davies post since his return to our
city. and that during the last year he
has performed the duties Of command
ed with more fidelity and military pre-
cision than has been manifested here
in :; score of years.
An inspection properly performed
means that all of the forms and cere-
monies pertaining to Grand Army
work shall be fully observed, and that
Il complete eXemplfication of all the
fine ritual literature shall be rendered
orally without the aid of any manu-
script or print.
knowing Colonel McComb's ability
to crate and declaim, his comrades felt
that his rendition of every detail would
be put to II high standard. They We're
gratiiied with what they saw and
heard. and they attested 1t in unmis-
taxable ways
Commander Mrtomb ascribeS great
praise to his comrades who assisted
him in the interesting ceremony. and
to Officer of the Day Christopher
ShultH he makes special allusion for
his efficiency ana zeal
4 portion of the evening was uevot-
cd to an interchange of courtesies be-
tween the local and visiting comrades.
Inspector officer W. S. Jones began Il
series Of interesting talks. Cigars
were passed, and. as they We're placid
ly incinerated, Comrades T.. W. Pearcc.
Hdlsey Latnropc and G. S. kimball
spoke feelinEly on subjects near and
dear to the men who represent the
great army of patriots who made this
nation free, prosperous and happy.
AS train hour came altogether too
fast, the comrades reluctantly pre-
pared to separate. Commander Nc
Comb made the visitors feel that they
We're fully appreciated, and that their
attiliation and social contact had given
pleasure to all concerned.
After parting with their travelling
comrades the post resumed its regular
order Of business. and finally brought
the delightful evening to Il close amid
