on Texas and Cecil Lyon. He told
how no county conventions were

Lyon controlled these counties by

Roosevelt rain that state only poll

And a moment later he was

that an emissary from the Roose-

MEETINGS IN LODGE ROOMS
One of the Interesting Features of
Che Forthcoming Religious Cam
paign in Boise.

In many cities where S-day cam
paigns of the Men and Religion For

have been meetings in lodge rooms
for the benefit of lodge members.
Such a plan is being arranged for
the campaign in Boise and it is
anticipated that several such meet

experts is in that city. 1t is rath-

tian message to lodge men in their
own quarters but it has met with
favor wherever it has been under
taken in this Men and Religion For
