would secure the 1910 convention, but
have received word that through cir
cumstances which assume an interna-
tional aspect, the convention will be
held in Toronto, Ont. but that in all
probability Los Angeles will win for
the next convention in 1918. The local
officers feel that the Angel city is re
nowned as a winner and that they will
now show that they are good losers

slogan for 1918.
