In the evening Arthur K. Peck
gave an illustrated talk on Storm
Heroes of our Coast. This was a
talk on the work of the life saving
crews along u coasts. The views
presented were taken along the AT.
lantic coast, and showed the light
houses, rocky coasts, wrecked YES
sells and life AYERS at work rescu-
ing the sailors and passengers from
the sinking vessels. The views
we're fine, and the talk was instruc-
tive. During the entertainment
nature seemed to assert itself to
show that the demand for storm
heroes was not all on the coast,
and some ugly looking clouds
came rolling up from the north.
west. Many in the audience seem
to lack faith in the efficacy of Mr..
Peck's life saving apparatus and

world are the countless millions
whose names never appear on the
rolls of honor. tits not our presi-
dents, or u senators or congress.
men that have developed our coun-
try, but the honest and industrious
citizens, whose lives have been
just as heroic, and whose sacri-
fees have been greater than those
whese names adorn the halls of
fame. DIR. Wood is an entertain
speaker and his subject was we'll

The last program, Monday eve

Orchestra, assisted by Donald Bou-
