The Fraternal order of Eagles is II
years old. During that short period
of our existence we have gathered
34O. 900 members to our standard. The
growth of the Fraternal order OF
Eagles IL the most remarkable Incl
dent In the history OF fraternalism.
No other organization can point To
such a record as has been carved by
the +. O. Il. We believe that the
growth of our organization IL the d.
rect result of our principles ana pre-
cents and of close adherence to
our Ideals. Certainly no organization
founded upon weak base could ex-
perience so remarkable rise.
The present administration has
done much, we believe. to further the
growth of the order. We have expelled
undesirables from the order without
fear or favor whenever they have been
found. We have put our house IN
order, we have taken and are main
tanning firm stand for law nd order
instancing this fact I may say that We
have closed up buffets In stalls where
the law IL against selling liquor. ano
that we viii not permit any ot ON
aerles to maintain buffets in their clul
rooms where the state laws or eitS
ordinances do not clearly give ih'
| right TO do so.

Miss Peck Declines Controversy.


Miss Annie 8. Peck has shown mag
hanimity in her attitude toward Mrs.
Fanny Bullock Workman which Is
looked for in vain in the squabble be-
tween the north pole explorers. Mrs.
Workman asserts that her ascent of
one of the highest peaks in the west
ern Himalyas gives her the title OF
champion woman mountain-climber.
Miss Peck does not accept the cha1-
lenge, simply saying she is content
with her performance in scaling Huas'
caran, in Peru. She was not able to
prove the height of the peak above
the sea level, but from incomplete OBJ
servations she estimates Huascaran
rises 23,5O0 feet. The weather condi-
tions were too severe for absolute
findings, terrific gale sweeping the
mountain when Miss Peck was at its
top. She does not oppose Mrs. Work
man when she calls herself champion
with climb of 23,300 feet up the side
of Nunkun. Miss Peck has taken the
sensible view of the situation, espe
cially as Mrs Workman's claim hangs
on mere trifie of 200 feet.

Much headway has been made in that
direction. The Josephine style Of
American persimmons has been cross
ed with the Yemon type of Japan.
The American flavor won out, while
the Japanese hardness and firmness
remained.
On the theory that there cannot be
too much of good thing, the Japa-
nese often heat their persimmons with
the fumes of saki, thereby weakening
the puckering power. Experiments
have been tried by the agricultural de-
