acknowledgements of the last
"a hours indicated early today that
China was in grave danger, with the
north and south drifting toward civil
war. WI Pei Fu's plan for Ii Yuan
Hung to resume the presidency of a
centralized government in Peking was
feared to have met opposition in the
form of Sun Vat Sen, who declared ne
would refuse to relinquish the presi-
dency of his south China republic at
Canton. Since the resignation of Hsu
Shih Chang as president, the Picking

which has been recognized by the for

unless Sun resigned, the Chilli forces

that Sun had persuaded many mem

.Ken0shG "KOfee
Is Streaming Hot

Kenosha Odd Fellows are much in
the limelight this week at the annual
state convention of the order at Eau
Claire which started on Tuesday morn
ing. One of the reasons for this is
that a special convention number of
"Koffee" the paper published in the
interests of the Kenosha Lodge of Odd
Fellows has been put off the presses
and has caused no end of favorable
comment from the Badger Odd Fellows
at the convention city according to
messages reaching here this morning
"Koffee" has established itself as an
unusually good lodge periodical but
this edition is even more praiseworthy.
1t is a twelve page folio, carrying in it's
cuts of the officials of the Kenosha
lodge and scenes in the Kenosha Odd
Fellow Temple, along with pictures of
state lodge officials. One of the inter
esting cuts is of Earl Potteiger. man
ager of the Simmons baseball team and
an Odd Fellow from Pennsylvania now
affiliated with the Kenosha lodge.
The special convention edition was
put out with an idea Of boosting the
chances of Kenosha landing the 1928
convention of the order by showing
that this city has one of the most
progressive Odd Fellow lodges in the
country.
John C. Stephan, past noble grand
of the Kenosha lodge, is editor of
"Koffee." Recently one Of the high
officials of the order wrote him thus
regarding his publication: "Lemme pat
you on the back; 1 love my 'Koffee'
strong and let me say that you are
some percolator. 'Koffee' stands out as
an Odd Fellow publication because it
isn't little inoffensive mollycoddle.
1t is impressive"
The convention edition, we'll illus
trates the truth of this comment
