French in Limelight
Considerable merriment was caused
shortly after the meeting had been called
to order when the names of the delegates
were read and for few minutes Attorney
Burton French of this city was in the
lime-light and practically all eyes of the
delegates were focused upon him. The
assistant secretary who read the names
of the delegates is typical German and
when he came to the young attorneys
name, he asked, over list French?" and
it sounded as tho he felt that some one
inimical to the German cause was trying
! TOT Eessak into the meeting and there was
s1 s litter.
It was decided to publish. an official
organ for the Bezirk, this to contain news
and announcements Of special interest
