last night at the Hamilton Hotel in
honor of the ninth anniversary cele-
bration of the organization of the Dis

cations. who heard plea for greater

Brig. Gen. Frank Parker. assistant to
the chief of staff of the Army, spoke on
his experiences with the 1St Division in
France and the need for national pre-
paredness. Mai. Gen. W. c. Rivers, JIM
Spector general of the Army, who was
in command of troops at Fort Myer, Va,
at the time of the burial of the UE-
known Soldier, recalled that event.
The audience was brought dramati-
cally and wildly back to the burial OF

of the meeting, explained that there are
three classes of membership in the

abled. and gold, for ''the boy who gave
all-who made the supreme sacrifice "
