The Presidency" and others in high Of
fetal life. His remarks covered the growth
of the Industrial and civil life of our coun-
try. and ne cleverly showed how Free
Masonry had been interviewer into the work
of upbulding the nation. His reference to
the stars and stripes was both patriotic and
enthusing, and his flights of oratory evoked
hearty applause. Mr.. Andrews delighted
his auditors with his references to the reso-
lutte and heroic type of manhood In Amer

teristcs which had stamped our Presidents
from Washington to Roosevelt
The next speaker was Judge Ivory G..

Masonry and Labor.
Mr.. Terence V. Powderly followed in an
address on Masonry in Industrial Life"
in which he paid a glowing testimonial to
the beauties and value of the order in sup
porting the justice of labor in its conten-
tions. He spoke in pleasing style, and he
provoked enthusiasm when he coupled Ma
sonry with the industrial supremacy of
America.
Mr.. Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor. closed the
speaking by also paying tribute to Masonry
as associated with the industrial growth of
America. He referred to the progress of
our country and declared that 1t was both
significant and remarkable that the world
position of the United States today demon
strated that the unseen forces of Masonry
had been a potential and unceaSng factor.
Mr.. Gompers was given a very cordial re-
ception and his remarks were heartily
applauded.

contributed to the beautiful ceremonial of
extinguishng the historic and symbolic
lights. The several parts of the work were
capably represented by all the officers of
the chapter and the music was furnished by
a choir. 1t impressive service that
never fails to attract large audience.
Next Sunday afternoon at 3 clock the
knights of the Rose CrOix Chapter will
assemble in the same hall of the cathedral
and perform the annual ceremonial of re-
lighting the lights 1t also is an impressive
service, but, taking on the inspiration of

ton rather than the somber thoughts of
the Maunday Thursday celebrate ton.

Some of the most earnest of the con-

draw upon. There were a number of
women. white and colored, who Tudged
up to the hospital with boxes and bags Of
groceries and other things, some Of them
evidently contributed from their little pri-
vate stock of necessaries. One of the most
unique offerings was a bunch OF wild flow
ers. picked by little girl and brought by
herself. They were rather dusty and some
of them wiited but they we're accepted in

place OF honor in the office.

overlooked the day will send In a few more
checks to swell the total.
