THE ELks' HOME WASHING
TOMS BIRTHDAY.
Until preparations for the proper
observance of the anniversary of the
birth Of Abraham Lincoln were
started among the veterans of the
Civil war here recently few per-
sons had any idea how many of the
veterans of the great war of 81 there
are in Daytona and vicinity this win
ter.
Although the two mass meetings
held at the city hall and the exer-
ciseS held in the Methodist church
Monday afternoon did not bring out
an of the veterans now in this vi
cinity, they did bring together large
number of the men who fought in
that great struggle.
At the first one of the mass meet
fngS held in the city hall there was
born the idea of having a campfire,
am opportunity for the veterans to
get together and talk over old times,
tell war stories, sing army songs and
have a general good time, and now
preparations have been completed
for the holding of that campfire In
the E.ks' home the evening of Feb.
rIIary %.
