Many Candidates Initiated by Alec
TempIe-Trip TO Tybee To-day to
End the Programme.
The Knights Templar of Georgia
marched on Savannah in force yester-
day for the annual conclave of the
Grand Commandery. The greater part
of them arrived quite early, but not
too early for Palestine Commandery,
which in each case met them on their
arrival, and escorted them to the De
Soto, the headquarters of all the COM
lnanderies during the stay.
With each commandery came also a
number of ladies'. These were met by
a special committee. After breakfast
the commanderies-that is, all that had
come in uniform-assemble and as an
escort to the Grand Commandery,
marched to Masonic Temple, where the
conclave was held.
In all, there were some 800 Sir
knights in line. In their handsome
uniforms, with waving plumes and
drawn swords. they made a most at
tractive picture.
The day, was given up to parades
when the Grand Commandery was not
in session. After the Templar parade
in the morning the Shriners, in the
afternoon had a turn at it. and made
one of the most novel and altogether
attractive displays that has been seen
here in years, while the Sir knights,
still later, marched to the Independent
Presbyterian Church, where the liturgy
of the order was celebrated, and the
Shriners closed the days parading by
forming an escort for the Shrine can
didates from the De Soto to Masonic
Temple when the ceremonial session
was held.
The Sir knights received a most
warm welcome and during their stay
the savannah 1eHlpldIS anu OnIlileIs
will do what they can for their enter
tainment. Lunch was served after the
morning parade. and a buffet lunch
during the Shriners session, and this
afternoon all visiting and local Temp
lars, Shriners and the ladies' will be
taken on a trip to Tybee. The con-
olave will close this morning and the
trip will be the last of the programme
of events for the two days. The ma
jority of the visitors will leave for
home tonight.

PAVING ON EAST SIDE.
Property Owners Carrying Ont Pro-
vision of Council.

VISION OF council
The City Council adopted an ordi
nance, on Feb. 10 providing for lay
ing sidewalks on certain streets in the
southeastern section of the city. To
this ordinance was attached a permits
sion that the work should be done by
property owners within sixty days
from the passage of a resolution Of
council specifying the particular street
a portion of a street to be so improved
in accordance with the ordinance.
Following out this plan, a resolution
was adopted by council on March 10.
requiring that sidewalks should be laid
within sixty days on Harmon street
from Wheaton to Anderson; on Henry
street, from Waters Avenue to Haber-
sham street: on Duffy street. from
Atlantic street to Waters Avenue; and
on Park Avenue. from Waters Avenue
to East Broad street.
This means that where sidewalks
have not been laid on these streets by
property owners by next Monday. the
city will lay them in hard brick, and
collect the cost from the property own
ers.
Since the adoption of the resolution
a good deal of paving has been done
by property owners, much to the i'm
prOvement of that section, but there
is still much yet unDaved. Such paw
ing as has already been done has been
in artificial stone, and property own
ers who have used that material say
that it will be a great pity if brick
walks are laid in some instances. in
stead of having the entire section uni
form. 1t would be to the interest of
property owners. they say, to look into
the matter at once, and make arrange
ments for all sidewalks to be in arti-
fetal stone.
With this work completed, there will
be a continuous sidewalk communica-
ton between that section and
the main portion of the city.
a thing now much needed. This
with the paving of Henry
street, and the other very necessary
Improvements that the Eastside I'M
provement Club expect to get at the
hands of Council. will make that sec
ton one of the most attractive por-
tions of the city.
1t is expected that by the end of this
week a regular fifteen minutes sched-
ule will be run on the car line both
ways from the market through the
Collinsville section. The street car
officials promised the East Side I'm
provement Club to give an improved
service to that section, and they are
now working on the Encouragement of
schedules in order to carry out that
promise.

CRUSADE STARTS TO-DAY.
Oil Will Be Poured Into Catch

DASAhS ~ MN
The public works department will
begin it's crusade against the mosqui-
toes to-day. The hands that clean out
the catch basins at the street corners
will be supplied with kerosene oil, and
a small quantity will be poured into
each basin after it has been cleaned.
The oil is relied upon to kill larvae of
the mosquitoes that may already be
in the basins, and it will prevent the
females of the family from depositing
eggs on the water.
Superintendent Otis Ashmore of the
public schools suggested to the direc-
tor of public works that this method
of fighting the mosquitoes be followed.
