carry out the proposed park pro.

urated at a dance in the commun-
ity hall Saturday night, February

Efforts are being made to make
the proposed park a part of the

Where Popes Once Lived In France

A NclENT city of storied battle- < % Tnents and Roman conquest, Avlgnon, France, lies on the east bank of the Rhone river, is c busy center today of flour milling, oil refining and feather making. The town is likewise well known for its sarsanet and other rich fabrics, but chiefly it is distinguished as the 0ne.tiisae home of the papaey.
 The city became the seat of the papal court in 1909 when Clement v took Up his residence there. ft remained the seat until 1876, when Gregory Xr left it to make Rome once more the papal metropolis after the so-calied Dabylonian exile. In the period Immediately following, Clement VII and Benc. dict XIII lived there. The city was the property of the papal see from i348 to i70i, when it was seized by France with much bloodshed.
 During their occupation the popes laid out and built . spec tacular palace, combination of castle, convent and fortress. Its construction took 90 years. The ramparts, rare examples of i4th century architecture, are gurs rounded by bouievards. John XxII began the fortress ii 1916. The city of Avignon owns it today.
 The palace of the popes is shown here on . current French stamp.

liam Green's attack on me, made at
the convention of the Massachusetts
Federation of Labor. in which he said,
he (Smith) has gone so far as to de-
clare that the crafts are nothing more
than company unions
This is reckless and untrue. Mr..
Green would be completely unable to
support his statement, because never
made any such declaration. No in
telligent student Of the American la
Dor movement would refer to the craft
unions Of the American Federation of
Labor as company unions"

board members charged that Edwin

betrayed the teachings and the
people Of his State" and was aided

Demanding that the board be
driven from the country" Mr.. Green
charged Edwin Smith in every de-
cision has decided against the craft
unions"
Referring to today's T. W. o. c.
