working harness Of the body and do
something worth while. Subsequent
history shows that he did it.
Then there was Elijah Cooper who
had several ears experience in the
councils of the Grand Lodge to his
credit and who at this meeting was
one of the mainstays in legislation.
He possessed a rare degree of con-
geniality, industry and loyalty to his
ideals-one of which was the Grand
Master.
Brother M. o. Ricketts, was at this
session appointed to the Craftsmanship
of the committee on foreign CORE
spondence and so well did he grace
the office during many years there
after until he became a recognized au-
thority on Masonic law and proceed
ure. His opinions were accepted in
every affiliated grand lodge in the
world and the brilliancy as well as
the rhetorical force of his reviews
have never been equaled except per-
haps by Willis N. Brent of Missouri
and w. T. Boyd of Ohio.
At this time the writer of these
notes was secretary of Golden Rule
lodge No. IT,. at C~hillicothe, and his
lodge was represented in the Grand
lodge by a brother proxy whom none
of the members had ever seen or per-
haps heard of. f.
We made the hill in time for the
Omaha meeting and have had the good
fortune to attend each of the TWEEN
ty-five succeeding sessions. So, here

rem with unsubdued hospitality. The
attendance was large and the Grand
Master in a most eloquent address re-
ported the jurisdiction to be in a most
prosperous and harmonious state.
The proxy system was now at it's
height and quite a number of the men,
bers found themselves representing
lodges that they had probably never
heard of before. Five lodges had been
added during the year and a total of
355 members had been enrolled i IN
subordinate bodies.
The Grand Master reported that he
had gone to Jefferson City for the
purpose of establishing the Temple
but had found that the sites offered
were at such exorbitant prices that
he was forced to leave the work un.
finished.
Brother w. w. Yates, then one OF
the most active and useful members
of the Grand Lodge and hailing from
Kansas City, again made a generous
proposal from the city on the Kaw
and the Grand Lodge turned it's hopes
westward. New locating committees
were appointed and new instructions
were given out. Jefferson City had
missed its opportunity.
1t was voted to celebrate the quar-
to-centennial at the next communica
tion which was later appointed fol
Omaha.
Notwithstanding the supreme popu
larity which Grand Master Pelham en-
joyed as the leader of the craft, and
Notwithstanding the skill with which
he held intact the devoted list of his
followers upon whom he appointed
honors and emoluments, there was &
constantly increasing opposition to his
leadership and this reached a higf
point at the Boonville meeting wher
Brother A. r. Chinn, who stood against
him in the election, only lacked 81
votes of defeating him. Upon this
occasion the Grand Master had good
reasons to be grateful for the large
number of proxy votes which he hat
the chance to distribute among his
friends. These saved the day for the
regime and Chinn vent back to the
secretaryship, carrying with him the
none too good wishes of the Crane
Master.
Brother Lucian d. Carter of Kansas
City, a very worthy and consistent
man and Mason, defeated a whole
bunch of opponents for the high Of

Won T|RPITz WANTS
WAR WITH AMERICA

Washington, Aug. 25.-Admiral Won
Tirpitz, who advocates unrestricted
submarine warfare on merchantmen,
has issued a manifesto demanding war
with the United States.
Information to this effect has been
received by the state department and
has caused considerable concern to
the officials. Won Tirpitz insists in
his statement that Germany is han
dicapped in the prosecution of her life
and death struggle by the limitations
imposed upon submarine operations
by the German government, at the in
stance of the United States.
He argues that this country, in any
case, is hostile to Germany and that
the time has gone by to consider it's
wishes. He believes should the Upit-
ed States enter the war on the side OF
the allies it would do no more harm
to the German cause than 1t already
has done.
The text of Won Tirpitz' memoran-
dunn was published by the Berlin
newspapers. The foreign correspond
ents were not permitted to transmit it
to their papers.
AS a consequence only the neutral
diplomats have been able to forward
1t by cipher messages and in their off,
cial mail pouches.
