99TH ANNIVERSARY
OF ODD FELLOWSHIP
About 275 Enjoy Program in Odd Eel
lows Temple, Including Address by
Rev. Delmar E. Trout.

The 99th anniversary of Odd Fellowship
was tittingly observed last evening by the
Odd Fellows and their families and
Dennis Rebekah lodge in their temple.
There We're about 215 present and the
occasion was pleasing and impressive
alike. The following program was given:
Organ selection. Erie Landry; prayer and
scripture reading by the chaplain, Fred ).
Knight; solo, Miss Ruth Stowell; read
ing. Mrs. A Y. ID. Piper; duet, Miss Elisa
beth BraSor and Frank II. Brasor, accom-
panied by Mrs. Helen Brasor; reading
Mrs Piper; solo, Abbott Richmond; ad
dress. Rev Delmar +. Trout; singing of
America; benediction.
At the close of the program refresh
ments of ice cream and cake were served
in the banquet hall, under the supervision
of the Rebekahs Wales and Jones fur
nished music for dancing until ll.30.
The Spirit of Democracy was Rev. Mr..
Trout's theme He spoke of the shifting
from the aristocracy OF life in the world
to democracy, in literature. painting, re-
ligion and government. The spirit of
democracy calls first for a concrete en-
bodiment of the principles of love and
sacrifice, not a mere profession or preach
of them. 1t calls for fair fight In the
great fight we should use every weapon
which we have i'll the air, under the sea
and on the sea, but not lower ourselves
to the degradation of committing the
same deeds of outrage and brutality and
cruelty against the civilian population
as our enemy has been guilty Of. The
spirit of democracy demands a victory
We must win. The people, and not a few
must control the destinies of the world
and mankind. 1t demands real peace, not
a feigned nor false nor hypoeritical peace
such as Germany offered Russia, but a
peace that shall be permanent and Just
To gain all this there must be the spiri,
Of unalloyed loyalty. Today there is nc
possibility of neutrality. There can be n,
compromise. There must be loyalty tC
God, the church, the lodge and the ma
tion, if democracy is to prevail. Rev. Mr.
Trout spoke about % minutes and uset
many illustrations.

TOWNSHEND, April -.
When the delegation from Brattle-
boro arrived last night for the Liberty
day meeting. during which the speak
ers had expected to help Townshcad
90 lover the top they found that
the Townshend forces had not only
gone over the top, but had made their
way well across No Man 5 Land. How
ever, they were greeted by an audience
which filed the town hall.
The meeting was called to order by
p. II. Rutter, who introduced County
Chairman Horton y. Walker of Brat
-leboro. After brief remarks of a pa
triotic nature Mr.. Walker introduced
the principal speaker OF the evening
Rev. Richard II. Clapp, pastor of the
Centre Congregational church of Brat
tleboro
! Rev. NJ Clapp opened his remarks to
the effect that this is a war which must
be put through to a finish because of
the German way of doing things. He
said it is our bounden duty and privi-
lc9e to help the allies who have stood
between US and Germany for nearly
four years. He referred to the Eng
| lish fleet, the French and English sr-
mics and of what they have done. Mr.
| Clapp said we must back up our men

all they have in the way of material
and spiritual backing This is a day

our greatest leaders, Washington and

records and do better. We are not to
let any criticism Of the government
! which we might have come in the way
of doing our best. It is up to us to get
busy.
Captain Frank Elliot and Sergeant
W. +. Carson told of their experiences
in Belgium and northern France and
of instances of Hun terrorism and bru-
talltv, saying these things were in
store for our people unless we furnish
the money which is necessary to fur
nish the food, munitions and supplies
to carry on the war to a successful
conclusion overseas. At the conelu-
sion of Captain Elliot s talk he dis
tributed application blanks through the
audience and collected them later.
A male quartet rendered selections
between the various speeches.
The Liberty bond quota for Town
shend was 81 POO. Previous to the ar
rival of the speaking party Townshcni
citizens already had subscribed $l0,050
F'orty-eight more subscriptions were
turned i'll last night amounting *
$2,650 This brought the total bono
sale to $4,000, or $500 more thar
WAS asked This entitled the town tt
an honor flag. As the campaign does
not close until May 4 it Is expected
that Townshend will be entitled to {
star for doubling its quota, it being
necessary to raise only $l,700 more.
