This message was sent over the wires
from the White House to Convention Hail
last night. It was signed by Theodore
Roosevelt, President of the United States,
and was repeated through a megaphone 10
the vast audience assembled there oy Mr.
Thomas c. Noyes, chairman of the Masonic

into panoramic and picturesque activity the
great festival with its many attrac re fea-
lures.
Just prior to the reception of the mes
sage the great auditorium was lighted only

with the bright hues OF the tropics, while
