Says u. S. and State Co.
operation Necessary TO
Guard Against Fraud.

Cooperative action by the States

sary to maintain honest weight and

He praised the work of the con-
terence, attended by more than $50
State officials and others concerned
with enforcing weight and measure
regulations, as helping to "co-ordi-
nate the thinking and action of all
concerned for the best results of all"

the public"
In this highly competitive era"
he continued with the consuming
pubic more discriminating and more
eXacting in its demands than ever
before, honesty on the part of the
seller is not only the best policy, but
the only policy that will retain conf
oence and build trade volume.
Competition ITSELF therefore. is an
influential factor in enforcing honest
weight and measure standards. Yet
there are always willful minorities
Who through subterfuge and camou-
fage, take unfair advantage of their
customers. 1t is this group that
must be brought and kept within
terms of the law"
Roper said intelligent co-ordina-
ton Of rules and regulations on the
part OF the States and municipalities
had made 1t possible to maintain
reasonable degree of uniformity in
regulations without the benefit of A
central authority. He urged local
officials to continue to think in

| and the palms of both hands.
Sitting down for the first time in
the ancient chair of st. Edward, the
enthroning seat, the SUPER TUNICA
or overdress of golden cloth is placed
around the kings body and a girdleof
the same stuff is tied around his
waist. The golden spurs are touched
to his feet and the Lord Chamberlain
exchanges the Sword of State for an
other sword that has been resting on
the altar. The latter sword, when
presented to George, symbolizes the
earthly powers in him
Rising from his chair, George re-
turns the sword to the altar. Now the
Robe Royal, also of golden cloth, is
placed into his hand by the archbishop
signifying that the king rules the
world by power of the Savior. The
Kings Ring, studded with sapphires,
is placed On his fourth right finger
to symbolic power tempered with
mercy and goodness
Guns Boom, Millions Cheer
At this juncture, the archbishop
takes the st. Edwards crown from the
altar, blesses it and, accompanied by
the other bishops, places it on
Georges head. And the audience
! shouts, God save the King" Then
| the male peers put on their coronets,

| Then led by the red-faced West
minister cherubs, the spectators cry:
God save King George
Long live King George
| May the king live forever.
I All during the amounting and crown
/ ing of George, Elizabeth has been sit

custom is for the Archbishop of York,
| second highest prelate of the Angli-
| can church. to administer to a queen
! consort. Other bishops, however, may
substitute.
Elizabeth Must Rise
Now Elizabeth rises, for the queen
consort never is crowned seated, goes
| to the altar kneels and prays. Then
| behind a curtain of gold held up by
four peeresses Elizabeth is anointed,
receives the queens ring, her crown
and her scepters. When Elizabeth is
crowned, all the female peers put on

Saltwater veterans still hold to the
Last Mans Club idea. Most of us re-
call the former Last Mans Club conn
posed of Civil War veterans, in
which it was agreed that the last re-
manning veteran would drink a toast
to his departed comrades, from a
bottle of wine which has graced each
of the clubs banquet tables for
years. The present Last Mans Club
has dedicated a can of corn Willie"
which was found on the battle fields
of France, this to be eaten by the
last two surviving members. %l''S's
All things being equal, the last two
veterans should be sans teeth by the
time this comes to pass. They will
no doubt find the task more a re-
sponsibility than a pleasure.
There was a beautiful toast writ
ten, to be given at the drinking of
that bottle of wine, but to date I do
not know of any dedicated to that
tin of "bully beef" There is little in
such an object to inspire poetic flight
as remember it. It's chief influence
on me, was to create a half hearted
respect for handicapped cooks who
seldom If ever satisfied a company,
and for poor Mess Sergeants who
were always between the devil and
the deep blue sea. The Supply Com
pany Officers always impressed upon
them that they were extravagant,
the hungry soldier thought them
terribly stingy with food, that be-
longed to the Government anyhow.
"You would think they had to pay
for it," has echoed somewhere in
every camp. /.
Just how would one go about writ
ing toast to departed comrades be-
fore devouring a can of corned beef?
May. / suggest one?
How's this? - So u

paigns of long ago, =
