 Another important feature of the convention. to all accounts will be the forming of a local roost of the Grand Noble Order Of Turkeys To be a turkey, is synonymous with be- ing a agDo6 fellow in all that the word implies and wherever opportunity has been given to become a member of this s.OEap and mystical order. it has rolled in tIass successful organization
 The Noble Order Of Turkeys was fnat1tuted some few years ago in Cleveland. O. by Norman H. McPhadl, and so successful was it's launching that more than 800 names were added to the Iiat at the International conven- fisn Me1d an Cleveland. O., in 1912 So poDn1nE dsd the order become that a large number of Cleveland dignitaries and city officials would notrbe satisfied unkll~fKaey, &oos were made acquainted with it's uaysterfes-
 Arrangements haNn therefore been made for the forming of a roost as one Of thesconv entiont tfeatures, and the promoters have been su ccessfu1 in re- cefvinsy the assurancesthat Grand Cob bier, Norman E. AGcP1aai1 will be pres ent on this occasion to initiate a linn tied number into the Noble Order of Turkeys
 Mr McPha1I has recently been Ap- pointed superintendent of the Boston American, after holdingsthe same po- sftfon for the past two years with the Cleveland NewsLeader. Besides be ing the founder of the Noble Order of Turkeys he was also greatly instru- merrtaa kn the formation of the New England Typographical Union at it's inception between five and six years ago. His visit to Lowell will there fore be doub1y welcomed.
