RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT
On the Life of Roy w. Pennington
BY Midway Lodge, F. & A. M.

WHEREAS, death has again in
vaded our ranks and called from ex-
istence our friend and brother, Roy
W. Pennington, who departed this life
on August 6, 1919; and,
WHEREAS, we feel a keen and un-
feigned sorrow in his unuimely de-
mise, by which the ties of our pleas
ant associations within the lodge and
around the freside were so rudely
and ruthlessly severed, so that only
the tender memories of the meek and
Christian life which he lived, remain
to cheer us onward and beckon u
forward.
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, by Mid
way Lodge No. 463, that in the death
of Brother Pennington the lodge has
lost a valued and respected member;
one who held in his bosom most sa-
cred, the obligations and privileges of
Masonry. While he was jealous in
whatever cause he espoused, he always
| tempered his zeal with that forbear-
ance and goodness of soul which made
and held his friends. To know him
was but to admire his manly virtues
and nowhere did they shine more re-
Splendent than in the lodge. The home
has also sustained a loss which is ir-
"eparable; the church and community
a friend and supporter whose place
will be difficult and hard to fill.
Be 1t Further Resolved, That, in
memories own silent chamber, we
will ever hold green the remembrance
Of his walk and labors amongst us and
strive to initiate the wise and gracious
example he has left us. We sorrow
not as those who have no hope, for
somewhere out in the summer land of
flowers, we confidently hope to see
him again, where the ravages of the
great white plague will never more
be felt and feared.
Be 1t Further Resolved, That the
brethren wear the usual badge of
mourning for the allotted time; that
page be set out in the minutes of
the lodge to his memory; that copy
90 to the family; also a copy to the
press with a request to publish, all
of which is respectfully submitted,

Strike Ties Up
New York Lines

NEW YORK, Aug. l8.-The vast
subway and elevated system of the
Interborough Rapid Transit company,
operated in Manhattan, the Bronx
and parts of Brooklyn and Queens,
was completely paralyzed yesterday
by strike called Saturday night by
P. j. Connolly, acting president of
the Brotherhood of Interborough
Rapid Transit company Employees.
The day passed without violence.
The strikers, who demand a fat in
crease in wages of so per cent, have
rejected 10 per cent increase as in
sufficient.
The tie-up which began promptly
4 a. M, as ordered, with the refusal of
crews to start runs from the car barns
became absolute OF a. M, when the
last of the trains sent out before
o'clock completed their runs, were
shunted into the barns and were aban-
doned.
At that hour strikers in the Inter-
borough power house shut off the
power causing a temporary stoppage
of traffic on surface lines of the New
York Railways and the Manhattan
spurs of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
company, which use Interborough
power.
Three power houses resumed opera
ton an hour later, however, permit
ting resumption of traffic on these
lines, which were damned throughout
the day, as were the steam railroads,
automobile trucks, sightseeing buses,
and boat lines which essayed to take
care of the crowds.

AT ANY COST

Ex-President Taft, relates an anus
ing experience that befell him while
he was touring the country in the in
terest of the League of Nations. He
had just finished a speech and it was
necessary that he make the last train
out of town in order to keep his next
days engagement.
"Cabby," he cried, "I'll give you
SIS if you get to town in time for me
to make that train"
Jump in, boss" yelled the cabby,
with visions of that princely fee
dangling before his eyes. "Pll get
you there in time or break your neck"
