Much enthusiasm was displayed at
/ last nights banquet, which closed
the strenuous campaign. Songs were
sung and prayers of Thanksgiving
offered Many of those on teams ex-
pressed a determination TO give even
more effort in behalf of raising the
much needed $4,000 and it is TO
give them a chance of realizing
their ambitions in this respect that
General Sec'y Banner has permitted
them to retain such subscription
blanks that they believe they can
have filed.

race for honors between the four
divisions during the campaign. d.
vision NJ. with J. B. Campbell for
its general, was in fourth place yes
