By JOHN B. KENNEDY.

r IMMEDIATELY following the greatest
convention, from point of numbers, to
be held in the thirty eight year career
OF the Knights of Columbus, the X. of G.
will send overseas the largest pilgrimage
since the end Of the war. The convention,
officially known as the supreme convention
OF the Knights OF Columbus Of all nations,
will be held in New York beginning to-day,
and ending on August T. when $50 Knights,
representing every Jurisdiction of the organ
ization will embark on the s. S. Leopoldina
of the French Line, reserved exclusively for
the X. Of C. party, and land at Havre about
a week later, to commemorate their quasi
diplomatic tour of Europe
The pilgrimage has dual objective--to
present the statue of Lafayette to France
and the X of C. baton to Marshal Foch,
which the knights are making a voluntary
offering to the French nation in memory
OF the historic comradeship of France and
America in the cause of liberty, and to
pledge spiritual allegiance to Pope Benedict
XIV. on August 20, when the Knights will be
the exclusive guests of his Holiness In The
Vatican.
e. CementinR Cordial Relations.
Ever since the end OF the war the knights
have had in mind the cementing of more
cordial relations between France and the
United States the memorializing Of the tra-
ditIonal championship of liberty common to
America and France. A more personal rea-
son entered into calculation. France aided
the Knights materially in their services for
the men of the A. Il. f., at one period IN
abling the Knights to have a score Of motor
trucks that saved the day. so far as welfare

OF the farmers summer field days at Cornell,
Preparations had been under way for
weeks by the college stan and over the farm
ior this experiment in college activities.
Visitors at the regular farmers week in Feb
uary had suggested the idea by remarking
that they would like to see the college in the
summer, when the experimental work and
farms could all be SEEN ind when they could
drive over the whole 1870 acres of the col
lcge farm i'm their cars to see what their col
lege was doing in the fields.
When the farmers field days were decided
upon the college took its cue from such
remarks
The roads through the entire 1900 acres
were posted, as were most Of the experiI
mental fields, and a two hour ride was
routed on which everything from tractor
plowing to the rearing of pheasants in cap
tivity could be seen by the visitors. A
euidebook was published, and members or
the staff promised to be on hand at the
starting point with megaphones each of the
mornings Of the field days to pilot groups

But what proved the best OF all TO farm
mothers, at least, was the provision made
by the college for the children. The de-

swings, teeters, chute the chutes May

boy and girlhood, with kindergarten teach
