| This convention is one of the most i'm
portant that will ever have met In Wash
| ington. and the fact that Major Sylvester.
the superintendent of the local force. is its
president. lends additional interest to the
| gathering. The popularity Of the chief Of
| the capital police is of such a high order
that In recognition of it his friends felt that
1 the tribute was due his associates In this
convention, and no pains or work viii be
| spared to make their stay here one of the
| memorable features of their lives.
Philosophical citizens have contributed
| without solicitation to the fund for the en-
| tertainment of the visitors to the convention
| and several banks have promised to send
| In their contributions, but before doing so
| will have to consult their boards of direct
| ors. after which the subscriptions will be
| sent to Mr.. Raymond's office in the Colo
RADIO building.

| ably assisted by Mr.. w. F. GUIDE and Mr..
Frank Berens in gathering the subscriptions
| for the proposed entertainment and men,
| toned that Mr.. Berens had driven him In
his auto more than 500 miles during the
| course of the work. Everywhere they have
| met with hearty responses to their sug-
gestions that 1t was good time for the
htt1t 20 ohnrr fhnIr n a
| the popular superintendent of police. and

| Wagon" when they will be shown all the
places Of interest that they may have over

| understood that the only Frank Raymond.
| 1.-THE man with the perennial grim and who
was never seen without his accompanying
smile. will be with the party on all the
taunts, a fact which, IL true, BODIES well for
