FLA. FIELD DAY
ASSOCIATION
70 Be FORMED

| NdtlOndl DIRECTOR J0hn II. RiSbeck
OF the Loyal Order of Moose. of
Pittsburg, Pa, and Lakeland, Fla,
returned this morning from Tampa
where he and his staff were yester-
day in conference with various ac-
tive Florida Moose regarding plans
for forming a Florida Field Day AS
sociation which will hold periodical
meetings, or conventions in various
cities of the State.
The Loyal Order of Moose, unlike
many other of the great fraternal
bodies, has only one higher body.
which is known as the Supreme
Lodge. This body is composed OF
al, the Past Dictators Of the subordi-
nate lodges. The Supreme Lodge
meets annually. Every even year it
meets at ,Mooseheart, illinois, the
great national home and vocational
institute for orphans, which is main
tanned by the one dollar annual con-
tributions from every member Of the
Order. The odd years the Supreme
lcdge meets in various large cities,
(which are determined by a vote Of
the delegates. The last one was held
last July in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.
In 1918, that being an even year
the meeting of the Supreme Lodge,
or convention, as it is called, will be
held at Mooseheart. Ill. In 1919 the
meeting place will be at st. Louis,
Mo. Already an active convention
committee is at work in st. Louis
and comprehensive plans are being
worked out in an organized way, as
the conventions of the Loyal Order
Of Moose, like most everything else
Of Moose do, are done in big way.
In the last couple of years it has
been found advisable to hold state
meetings. The plan of having one
governing body has not been inter-
fcrred with as a great saving in ex-
pense Is accomplished, but the state
meetings afford an opportunity for
those active in the work to meet and
get acquainted, to exchange ideas
and working plans, and also afford
the executive officers of the order
chance to get closer to larger num-
Der of officers and members of the
order.
1T developed at the conference yes
terday that several Florida towns
are anxious to have the honor Of the
first meeting and there will b.
spirited contest before the city is
decided.
Dr, O'Donoghue of Tampa was
made chairman of the committee on
arrangements and as soon as returns
have been received from the Florida
lodges which were not represented
at this meeting, another meeting
will be called when final arrange.
ments for The organization Of the
Association at their first meeting
will be made.
Fl. R. Brush and L. B. Selfridge
Will represent Lakeland Lodge at
the next meeting Of the Florida
Field Day Association Of the Loyal
Order of Moose.

We don't know Mr.. Ernest Kreher
who manages the shipbuilding plant
at Tampa, nor would eve undertake to
pass upon his loyalty; but it probably
would be the best thing for Tampa,
for the shipbuilding concern, and for
Mr.. Kreher, If the latter would efface
himself from the scenery. His con-
nection with the enterprise is causing
lots of trouble and may cause more.
If he is good loyal American citi-
zen, the cloud of suspicion under
which he rests is unfortunate, and he
could best serve American interests
by resigning.

ON HER WEDDING DAY

If all your life could be as bright
As this, your wedding day,
And not a cloud obscure the light,
One happy dream always
If wish of mine could be of worth
How happy you would be,
Your barque would smoothly glide
Along life's troubled sea.
Ia have you always young and fair;
You never should grow old,
And silver threads should never find
A place among the gold.
Alas! How vain such wishes are!
IT'S not to mortals given,
If so, we'd think too much of earth
And not enough of heaven.
Love, you know, cannot grow old,
But is always young and fair,
Tho footsteps falter, eyes be faded
Furrowed brow and silvered hair
Times of gladness tinged with sorrow
Sunshine woven in with shade
Smiles today, but tears tomorrow,
Thus the web of life is made.
May the years that God hath willed
thee
TEEN with all that seemeth best;
May thy loved ones live to bless thee;
May they also call thee blest.
When at last you reach life's sunset
And the Fathers call awaits,
May you both together enter
In at heavens pearly gates.

COMMON USE
OF ALL TRACKS
Parallel Lines to be Turned into
Double Track Systems of
Railroads Of
Country.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON, July 18--Common
use Of all tracks is to follow the pool
ing Of equipment Of all rail facilities
in the handling OF the railroads wRr
burden. It was learned officially here
today that Director General McAdoo
soon will authorize a gigantic rs-roIt-
ing scheme providing for the conse :
version of parallel lines into double
track systems. This move will in.
clude the building OF scores Of con-
nections, but the expense when COM
pared with the vast goodato be derived,
will be negligible, officials believe
Robert S. Lovett, director of the di-
vision Of extensions and betterments
of the railroad administration, has In
sdtuted a survey of all lines with a
, view to combining facilities further.
He will meet McAdoo in California
and that conference is expected to re-
suit in orders for the building of the
FIRST links and subsequent rerouting
of certain Pacific coast trains. 1t was
pointed out by officials that in many
cases, lines run parallel for distaces
as great as $50 miles. Under competi-
tive conditions each road gained It's
share of business. Since the last vest
ige Of competition has been wiped out
by federal operations. officials said, the
lines facilities should be utilized 100
per cent Only by making them into
one double track line can the fullest
result be attained, they declare.
While it is known McAdoo expects
ultimately to extend the plan to all
sections of the country, 1t was be
lieved in some quarters it might mean
the cutting to the minimum of service
on lines built for competition. The
shortest route and the condition. of the
roads, grades and requirements Of the
section only will decide the service
retained, it was limited.

WOULD you BE AFRAID UNDER
FIRE

Eugene l. Harrison. in Physical Gull
ture: Am coward? What will / do
when ! go under fire? Will run? Will
Does my doubt indicate that I'm A
coward? Does courage consist in a
lack of fear, or in dominating the
sense of fear and rising above it?
These questions and hundreds like
them are being asked by soldiers des-
tined for the war They may ask them
ever so secretly, hardly consciously,
nevertheless they are asking them.
A soldier may try to figure arith-
metically, Just what he will do, but
he will not find the answer. Only ex-
perience can answer his questions.
Those who have been under fire
cannot answer his questions for him,
either. but their experiences and OBJ
servations may give lot of comfort
and solace, may dispel the awful
thought that one may be coward
Sergeant Arthur Guy Empey, auth
or of "Over the Top" in talking with
me on this point in the lobby OF the
Lyric threatre one afternoon, affirmed
the belief of others that every man Of
is afraid under fire.
He's crazy If he isn't" Sergeant
Empey fastened to explain. ANY
men who's got any sense at all is
afraid when he's being shot at anw he
knows it. But that's not cowardice.
Not at ALL he continued convincingly.
A coward is one who becomes pam
Iicky and runs; he's lost all control of
himself: he's given I'D to fear. But
