acquainted with the ordinances of To-
peka, and who found themselves in the
police station as a result.
The Rev. w. G. Beasley and Harry
Kessinger, Joplin Kiwanians, found
use for the bonds Friday night when
they impersonated Italian organ
grinders SO realistically. that the night
clerk at the National hotel called the
police to have them removed from the
lobby.
The two Missouri Kiwanians ap-
peared in the lobby of the hotel with
monkey, and entertained the XII
wanians standing about the conven-
ton headquarters there, making a
handsome collection after the per-
Torrance. They insisted that hey were
entitled to hotel accommodation and
showed the clerk that they had money
enough to pay for their lodging. He
refused them admittance, however,
and they resisted arrest by the police
man he called when they tried to go
to bed on a settee.
The police patrol was called to re-
move them to the station, when they
proved their identity and were released
to go to their Pullman car home and
remove their makeup.
Coming back up town in civilized
gt1ise, they shook hands with Patrol
man Jeff Parnell, who had been
forced to handle them roughly a few
minutes before.

reports of all standing committees,
and most of the district officersl in
order to finish the program.
There was a spirited discussion this
morning when a Chillicothe, Mo,

their auditoriums IN five minutes or
less. The resolutions committee was
of the opinion that a resolution al
ready passed. putting the Kiwanis
clubs back of the enforcement of all
fire prevention laws. was sufficient.
The sponsor of the resolution intro
duced it from the floor, but when an
other delegates amended it to read
that all restaurants would serve one
fourth of a lemon with each glass of
ice tea, he withdrew it.
