The annual celebration of St. John ;.
Day held last Sunday afternoon, june
p. at Salem Baptist Church. 3oth and
Ia Sale street. participated in by
Free and Accepted Masons Of the vari
Gus lodges of Chicago. was beyond all
doubt the grandcst event ever held in
Masonic circles in Chicago among our
people
Favored by perfect summer weather,
the eminent and distinguished Acting
Worshipful Master of Royal Eagle
I Lodge. L. D.. Brother r. :. Christman.
rs Grand Marshal of the day, rcsplcn-
dent in full Masonic uniform, led the
parade from the Masonic Hall at State
and 10th streets, To the Salem Baptist
Church, amid the silent plaudits and
admiration Of thousands of admiring
friends( who lined the thoroughfares
along the entire route of the line of
march.
Twelve of Chicago's finest eolored
policemen proceeded the parade as an
escort of honor. Royal Eagle Lodge
had assembled early in the day at its
hall on 44th and State streets, under
the leadership of Brothers Holmes and
W. G. Anderson, and promptly at
"high twelve" the Grand Marshal of
the day, B. S. Christman, accompanied
by a brass band of forty pieces, ap-
peared at the Royal Eagles Hall and
CALAMITY escorted the Royal cages to

prising men of all professions and
trades-the cream of ChieagO's bust
ness men-kept steady step to the
tune of the enchanting and inspiring
music from three of Chicago's greatest
bands, each band being led by its pro-
lessor and band leader.
The Consistory acted as an escort

he various lodges composing the
,arade. it was the universal comment
md conclusion that Royal Eagle Z. D.,
he baby Masonic lodge of Chicago,
must be given the credit of having the
lregst numerical representations of
ny of the lodges in the parade, more

The waiter who makes a habit of

With many people it would seem to
be a sort of nervous habit or a habit
due to nerves, that they arc constantly
doing the things that are disgusting to
close observers, and as n matter of
fact, dangerous to others.
Next to cleanliness in habits and
person of those who serve and handle
food in eating places is clean, sterilized
dishes and cutlery. n not a few places
in the loop district during the rush
hours, due no doubt to lack of proper
facilities and sufficient help, dishes and
other eating utensils are hastily and
improperly washed or cleansed; and in
this way diseases may be communi-
Gated. There is danger, too, in the use
of cracked or Clipped table ware, as
all such defects become lodging places
for the dangerous kinds of dirt. The |
restaurant keeper, who permits the use
of cracked or Clipped earthen vessels
or china ware dishes in his place, is
certainly not familiar with the funda-
mentals of modern sanitation and will
lose more money eventually through
loss of trade, than he would were he
promptly to discard the offensive and
table ware and buy a whole
outfit of new dishes.
Patrons of eating places are getting
so that they are "real finnicky" about
having clean food and clean service
along with it. And as result of edu-
cation along sanitary lines, restaurant
and lunch room patrons are noting with
more care than ever before, the things
that make for cleanliness and safety in
the places where they eat.
Only the other day, the writer sat
next TO a patron, in a loop lunch room,
who refused his coffee because it was
served in a cracked and really disre-
putable looking cup. He also sug-
gested that the cup be consigned TO
the waste can; which suggestion was
very promptly carried out then and
there. All of which serves to show
that the patrons of eating places can
Of themselves do more TO help keep
them clean and sanitary than can a
few food inspectors, who cannot pos
sibly cover in a thorough way all the
places in the districts assigned them.
In other words, if patrons are in
different or careless in demanding clean
service along with clean food, the res
,aurant keepers themselves are likely
% be lax in enforcing sanitary methods.
But once they know and understand
hat lack Of cleanliness means lack of
rade, their places will either be made
can and safe, or those who eat will
now no more.

SERMON FOR SUNDAY
Don't Read 1t Until Tomorrow

Three weeks from today, will be the
fourth Of July. Let's all celebrate it
by going to church. The last time we
had fourth Of July on Sunday, the
nation stood unknowing on the brink
of a river Of blood and fire. Since
then we have crossed the river with
honor to our country and now stand
on the safer side in the greatest
strength and security America has
ever attained-a condition that it can
most appropriately appreciate by
thankfulness. Let US not run our
fourth over into the fifth, and cele
brate with noise, overlooking and
boastful talking as usual. Let Us
come together in the churches and
ether quiet places and thank the God
not only of the Christians, but all
humanity, that he has not turned his
face from US for a single day during
the awful trial thru which the world
has passed since July 4, 1914.

The Miami Herald wants Cats to
call the legislature in session, to en-
dorse the equal suffrage amendment,
so that the women can vote in the
general election, and out of gratitude
to a democratic state would vote dem
ocratic. This would be a good plan,
but the present legislature showed
itself against woman suffrage in its
regular session, and probably has not
changed it's mind. Also, according to
our state constitution, it can't vote
on the nineteenth amendment. 1t
might have called on the people of
Florida for vote on a state suffrage
amendment, but it didn't. There is
nothing doing in the suffrage line
until the new Legislature, the legisla-
ture to be voted for next November
is elected and sworn in.
