Advocated by Imperial
Potentate Fred A, Hines.
Tract Of 5000 Acres 10 Pro
vide Permanent Meeting Place.
Ten Acres TO a Shrine for Head
quarters--Acre TOR a Bungalow.

Rochester, n. Y, July 11.--That the
Mystic shriners should buy go acres of
land somewhere, to establish Mere a Mes
ca for the organization. where the annual
Imperial Councils should be held
was the startling suggestion in the
address of Imperial Potentate Fred A.
fIiues of Los Angeles at the first business
session OF the Council today. One If the
reasons for maitins this recomme 1dation
was that it was nov almost impossible for
any city in North America to care for
the Council and its following. This idea
in detail is presented in the following
part of Mr.. Hines address
Il would recommend the appoint
ment of committee of three to inVes-
tigate and report at our next annual
session the advisabiity OF buying say
500e acres of wooded land centrally To-
Gated. for instance. in the Green Bay
country or Lake Superior on line of
railroad rot for from the main lines
of traye. where there is good fishing.
boating and hunting. have drill
ground cleared. with plenty of review
ing stands baseball grounds, croquet
grounds, TERMS courts. etc; build
convention hall with seating capacity
for 80 ard plenty of committee rooms
Zone story, a ball and banquet hail
which can he divided but which when
all opened several thousand could
dance. a hotel of adequate proportions.
Give to each Shrine 10 acres on condi-
ton that they continue to obey the laws
of the Imperial Council. on which they
could build their own headquarters. Give
to each Shriner on the same condition an
acre of ground. if they will build $1,000
bungalow.
Never in this city has there been a pa
rade that approached as a spectacle that
of the Mystic Shrlners tonight. For an
hour and a half through streets illumi-
mated with electric canopies. ropes of
electric bulbs and a thousand electric de-
signs and thronged as perhaps never be-
fore with tens of thousands of spectators.

marchers passed, a body of men of from

If anyone doubts that there is con-
siderable summer travel this season they
should be at the wharf of the Eastern
Steamship Co. when the boats arrive OF
depart, That the boats have done a
much larger business this year than ever
before is shown in the statement made
Tuesday to the Journal by Captain Col
by of the City" of Bangor that his boat
alone during the month of June just
passed carried over 100 more passengers
than it did in June of 1910 And the
City of Rockland is also doing a big

For the Conceited Man.

From the Outlook.
Men detest cyclists because they are alb
sorbed in themselves. and that particular
form OF selfshness is not only offensive
but ridiculous. 1t takes great deal Of
genius TO carry of egotism. and no
amount of genius can carry if Very far.
Unless he has gifts Of mind the conceited
man is more or less of bore. and the
contrast between what he is and what no
believes he is forms a standing challenge
to tell him the truth about himself. Great
ability often goes with eeotism, bur con
ceit is as q rule the besetting sin or the
man whose abilities are below the level
OF his ambitions Such a man may have
good intentions and capacity adequate for
good work but he is rartiN taken seri-
ously and everybody is tempted to pune
t,ire his pretensions Egotism Is funda-
mental fault of character: conceit is often
the superficial weakness OF those who
lack self-knowledSe.
