DENVER GAVE KNIGHTS
 4 GLORIOUS RECEPTION
Return of pr. Swetnam from Fri
 enniaI Conclave

Dr. J. M. SWetnam one of the re presentatiVes of the local command cry has returned to the city from the triennial conclave of Knights Temp
 Lar at Denver which he says was one of the most interesting meetings of that body in the history of it's thirty two cOnclaves. The people of Denver Left nothing undOne for the entertain ment of the knights and there was a good many of them to entertain for there were 12.OOO in the parade.
 One of the features of the meeting was the annual banquet in the audi torlum of the local cOmmandery, q mammoth banquet hall. The ar rangement of the tables was uniuue and an improvement that henceforth will probably be adopted in all sini- lar, large gatherings. At one end of the hall was the table for the grand officers. The others were arranged in regular order away from it to the other end of the hall. Each of the tables was numbered t-y d large pIa- card and each of the $50 guests had been assigned to certain tables The disposition of the guests was so made that those from all part of the coun- try would be seated at the same table.
 All were seated without the slight est confusion and when each guest arrived at his place he found waiting for him a neat little book bound in pig skin with his name stamped up- on it in gold. The book contained beautiful colored views of Colorado and historic buildings and scenes in different parts of the world.
 Each of the guests was provided with unique program in the form of a handsomely printed pamphlet. It contained a diagram of the banquet hall with the numbered tables. There was list of all the guests with the of his name and there was another list of the tables by number with the names of all the members assigned to each.
 There was a spirited contest, said Dr. Swetnam between New York City and Los Angeles for the location of the next triennial conclave. It was would win largely on account of the ingenious argument advanced that most of the Knights would visit the coast in 1915 to attend the San Fran cisco and San Diego Propositions and would therefore not care to return to the coast the following year. But in spite of this argument, Los Angeles won the conclave by a majority of about sixty.
