 Dr. Thomas is a Presybterian min ister a graduate of Princeton Uni versity, born and reared in Marion, O., and at one time he worked for President-eleot Harding on the Marion Star.

Silliman Branch
 Entertains Two
 Past Presidents

State and national officers of the Society of the Sons of the American Revolution were the guests of the General SiIliman branch of Fridge quet at the Seaside club. Members of the Daughters of the American Revolution assisted in the entertain ment of the guests, among. whom were two past presidents of the na- tiona1 organization.
 Several splendid addresses were made by the guests, among whom were Elmer M. Wentworth, of Des Moines, Ia., past president general of the national society; Judge Morris B. Reardsley, of Bridgeport, another past president general; Herbert H. White, of Hartford, president of the Con- necticut society George Hale Nut national society; Louis Amin Amos, of New York, director general of the national society; Harvey F. Reming- ton, of Rochester. N, r., chancellor of the national society, and Albert w. Smith. vice president and hoastmaSter of the banquet
 The address of the evening was de- Hvered by Captain R. Drace White. Inspector for the Eastern division of naval recruiting. Captain White is veteran of 26 years naval service, and was unusually we'll qualified to speak on ''The Operations of the Continental Navy during the War of Independence." He participated ac- lively in naval engagements in three wars, and saw his first service while with Admiral Sampson's fleet in the Spanish-American War. Later he was with Sims gunnery reorganization and saw service in the Mexican cam paign, A few years later he was appointed naval attache at Rome and later at Vienna, and at the outbreak of the World War reentered active service. While serving on cruiser es- cort for army transports he was se- vereIy wounded, but recovered in time to accept the command of the giant Imperator, then on transport duty.
 He brought his hearers from his opening topic of the navy in the early days of 1775, when it was of inesti- mable value in winning the war of independence. up to the paramount naval questions of the present. He passionately appealed to his audience to whole-heartedly support the navy and the naval program, and won thunderous applause with his con cIudine remark: 'In the name of those ancestors of yours who fought and died that you might enjoy the fruits of liberty, who gave you the right to enroll in this distinguished organization, beg of you to give vo1,1. sI1nDort to your navy not only fba dollars and cents necessary for it's maintenance, but III conAoeraIioh of it's problems.
