BUSINESS MEN ENJOY
BOOSTERS CLUB BANQUET

Fifty-four of Montpelier's business
men participated in the first get
together banquet which was given
by the Boosters club at the BurgoynA
cafe last "Wednesday night at q
O'clock. For 500 per plate. the
menu. which was prepared by Mine
Host Jack Cornish was all that one
could ask for. After all had done
ample justice to the roast chicken and
all the other good things to eat, A. e.
Thiel, chairman of the banquet
committee, called upon Mayor Hoff.
who made a pleasing five minute
talk. He took occasion to refer to
the coming bond election and asked
members of the club to exert their
efforts in behalf of the proposition,
which will mean so much for the i'm
provement of Montpelier.
]. F. O'Connor also responded to
call in his usual happy vein. He
emphasized what Mayor Hoff had
said in regard to the bond election
and expressed the hope that every
member of the club who entitled to
vote would register his vote in favor
of the bonds on January 6.
So thoroughly was the banquet en-
joyed that 1t was unanimously voted
to hold another early in January.
After leaving the banquet room the
members gathered in groups in the
Hotel Burgoyne lobby and engaged in
social chat for a half hour or more.
That the banquet will result in
renewed interest being taken in the
Boosters club and questions per-
tanning to the good of Montpelier
there is no doubt.

for their soldering and spend with a
free hand.
While the high-class cafes are fill
led with officers of the Allied armies
and the weather. Russians. the COM
mon people, and the dough boys and
Tommies and Poilu's and privates of
the Allied arms spend their evenings
off duty in THE Bucket of Blood,
American Grill" or other lower
priced cafes. THE Bucket of
Blood" is the toughest. rottenest
cafe in Vladivostok, anything goes.
Let your imagination run riot .-Amer-
lean doughboys patronize 1.-THE
Bucket of Bloor only on occasions.
1t is a rare sight to see them in it's
mad riot of depravity because it's
so rotten that they can't stand it.
1t is more one of the sights" to the
American soldiers, but the Japs,
French, Chinese and Russian troops
are there every evening in great
numbers.
THE American Grilr' is one of a
number of cafes or saloons that
sprung up when the Allied troops
came to Vladivostok. In them gather
most of the soldiers off duty and the
middle class of Russians who haven't
a fortune to throw away for an even
ings entertainment, but who still
crave excitement. They get it, but
in more modified degree than the
other cafes in Vladivostok.
Such an account of the afternoons
and evenings of soldiers in Vladivos-
tok sounds rather bad to the outside
world. but they could be much worse.
American soldiers must have enter
tainment of some kind and they are
making the best (for their own fun
of a bad mess. From all accounts
the Y. M. G. A. fell down in Siberia
in doing the work it set out to do,
that of providing amusement for our
| troops. In the first place Vladivos-
| tok is so far out of the world that
entertainers such as the doughboys
had in France are not to be found
and even red-blooded Americans get
tired seeing each other wrestle and
box day after day. There are no
girls to dance with or take out, no
congenial families they can visit
with, no place to go for good, clean
amusement.
AS a result they go the limit. A
Major from the Morale division went
to Siberia on the same boat as did
to investigate conditions in the Amer
lean army there. l saw him a week
after we landed and in that time he
had found out that the morale OF
the American army in Siberia was
the lowest of any of our forces.
Why the morale is SO bad as to
lead to conditions where the men
said they would absolutely refuse
to soldier any longer, I'll try to tell
you in the near future.
