Enthusiastic Patriotic Display
at Final Banquet.

The 49th semi-annual reunion of the
Scottish Kite bodies of the valley OF
Topeka closed with bang last night,
in spite the enforced absence of the
guest OF honor. General Wood, who
was billed as the speaker of the even
ing and was ordered to Washington.
Nevertheless, the liberty class of
10 mem ers received a rousing well
come 20 the 52nd degree. Patriotic
service both via khaki and via
greenback, was brought'forcibly home
to the assent lage by Governor Arthur
Capper, by DR.. Henry j. Waters, by
Dr. Edmund James kulp, and by Dean
William n. Jardine of the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
Governor Capper told of the num-
berIess appeals from heart-broken
wives and mothers and sweethearts
that he received in frenzied efforts OF
the women to obtain comfort when
their husbands. or sons or sweethearts
were drafted into the national army.
These women are not unpatriotlc but
their happiness was seriously threat
ened and their sleep troubled by all
kinds of horrible imaginings and they
desired to know just what was their
duty in the present crisis

successfully cope with the hordes OF
barbarians who are graphing at the
throat of democracy and civilization
Dean Jardine presented stirring
defense of the farmer against the ac-
cusations of people who do not un-
derstand him: He said tnat tn S

in winning the war by planting and
caring for an acreage thought Impos-
sible before the present necessity
Further he urged the city people to

the lines laid down by Herbert Hoover
Potsdam Gang.
Doctor Kulp in his capacity of class
orator set forth his decided convic-
lions against the "Potsdam gang"
And he promised that in no sermon
or speech of his during the war would
he consider for a moment the relaxa-
ton of his bitter announcement of this
same "Potsdam gang of Hohenzol-
lerns' and he urged his classmates
and brother Masons to spare no effort
in bending their energies to the vigor-

the banquet. In a short speech he
named the different activities of the
Masons in the war, and issued an eS-

which pains the Masons are trying to
alleviate by a wholesale collection of
