TO BOOM NE.
ACRlC..
GRANGE SESSION
National Convention In BOs
ton Nov. 1913 Will Be
Great Event

As plans for the big National
Grange session in Boston, Nov. 1918
assume definite shape, it is clear that
the two outstanding features will be
the conferIino OF the seventh degree
and the splendid exhibit of New Eng
land agricultural products that is to
occupy the entire exhibition hall
Of Mechanics Building-and be open
entirely free to everybody for foul
days. Besides all the other attractive
features Of the big national gathering
these two are sufficient to draw. a
big crowd, and the estimate Of 10000
Grange members brought to Boston
for the event seems fully warranted,
besides all those not members Of the
Order who will come to see the agri-
cultural show.
The supreme purpose of the eXhi-
bition is to boom New ENGLAND agri-
culture, and to emphasize the import
ant part the Grange occupies in its
development. Viewed in all it's as
poets, this coming show will be diff
ferent than any ever before held in
the country, and it will be worth GO
ing long distance to see.
An added "big feature" Of the ses-
sion, just arranged for, is securing
Rev. Russell H. Conwell of Philadel-
phia to give his famous lecture,
"Acres of Diamonds" at the Friday
morning session, November ~, at
1890.
Definite announcement is made
that the seventh degree will be con-
ferred at 2 o'clock in the afternoon
and at Z o'clock in the eveninr' on
Friday, November IL, with total of
10000 candidates in the two classes
confidently expected. In addition to
the GREAT New England crowd for the
degree, 1000 candidates are nromised
from New York, several Pullman car
loads are comin~ from Michigan and
not less than 80 states will ~robably
be represented among those who
take the degree. Thus it will not only
be the largest initiation in numbers
ever carried out by any fraternal or
ganization in the United States, but
the most representative as well. A
great aomunt of work and liberal
outlay will be put into the stage set
tings for the degree, the electric
lighting effects and the music, as the
Mechanics Buildinr stage is the larg-
est on which the degree has ever
been presented. A verv attractive
scheme of decorations for the hall it
self is also being worked out.

You have been used to lifting your

little effect. Hats are queer things,
anyhow. Women place a great deal
of stress on so-called hats and insist
on having a collection of such head
wear but they are in no sense de-
pendent on hats as are men. Inc
surest way to get fight with a small
boy is to take his hat and do bodily
harm to it or mistreat 1t in any way.
IA man also feels uncomfortable I'M
less he has his hat at least in reacn
and can do nothing without his nat.
The Rambler's boy, just now at least,
is immune from much of the trouble
that comes to a small boy. He has no
hat to hang up when he comes into
the house or to get lost or to be
thrown into tree by some older
and teasing youth. The boy owns no
hat and has not worn one for as
much as few hours in his life. Sun
dry hats that were purchased for him
have all been lost and the child per-
sistently refused to wear hat no
matter what was the weather so the
Rambler decided it was a waste of
money to buy any more hats and just
let's the youngster go his way without
la hat.
Maybe that is the reason why his
hair is so heavy on his head and
grows so rapidly. He certainly has a
shock of hair and requires frequent
trips to the barbershop. There is
something in this, perhaps. You new
er see man who is baldheaded going
about without hat and you see
heavy hair on the man who persistent
ly goes without his hat. The bald
headed man cannot do without his hat
unless he stays in the shade all the
time The Rambler had friend who
had no hair on the top of his head.
One day that man went to sleep in
the yard, in the shade. The sun
moved and presently the man was
asleep in the sun and his scalp was
so badly burned that he suffered
agonies for several days.-Rambler in
