BOSTON, July 10.—More than 40,000 members of the Benevolent and Pro- tective Orde? of Elks, brilliant in many-colored costumes, parading be- hind two score bands, brought to a climax here today the sixtieth annual national convention of the order, which opened its session in this city on Monday. A bref but heavy thun- dershower, which brought relief from the heat, drove both paraders and spectators to cover, but the long line of march was taken up again as soen as the sun reappeared. Gov. Chan- ning H. Cox, Mayor James M. Curley and Grand Exalted Ruler John G. Price of Columbus, Ohio, reviewed at difterent points the three-hour-long parade. Heat and high humidity brought about the prostration of about thirty persons, one of whom, an unidentified man about forty years of age, died on the way to the hospital. Nearly a score received slight injuries when spectators assembled in grandstand along the Boston Common, crowded’ the aisles, tripping in the crush when the thunderstorm broke. Those who fainted were treated at nearby stores and hotels. All were able to return home unaided. Drill teams in multi-colored uni- | forms preceded many of the lodge | groups. Historical floats, broke in { many places the long line of march- | {ers. The Jackson, Mich., drill team, |five successive times winners of the national Elk drill trophy, in red fezzes and jackets and biue panta- |loons, stood out prominently with | well executed maneuvers, | ‘The Philadelphia lodge took three first prizes awarded to parading units. | Among awards announced to- night for lodges outside of Boston were: Best appearance in line: First, Philadelphia: second, Camden, N. J.; | third, Detroit Most novel display: First, | delphia second, Plymouth, | third, Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Largest membership in line: First, Philadelphia; second, Detroit; third, Chicago.

The subject of her essay was “The Federal Government, It's Depart- ments and Functions,” and the re- ward for her success was a two-day trip to Washington in order that she might see the wheels of government in_actual operation. Without even a glance at the text of her prize-winning composition, the girl recited it in clear and forceful tones, while Commissioners Rudolph, Oyster and Bell listened attentivel When she had finished each of the Commissioners congratulated her upon the accurate description she had given of the duties of the legis lative, the executive and the judicial branches of the government.

As to the merits of a powder com- pany’s international contest for kill- ing wild life, Nature Magazine sa) “Nature struck a balance in the wild life world. It cr ed friends and enemies, protectors and attack- ers, conservatives and liberals in an | instinctive existence of wild winged and furred beings. There is danger in attempting to change that balance except upon the most final of evi- dence. “The American Nature Association stands definitely in favor of clean sportsmanship, in season, properly re- stricted, and with proper penalties for it's abuse. The evidence today, how- ever, is too indefinite and opinions too varied to grant to a powder com- pany authority to declare open war upon any group of animals.” —_——— Booms Nature Study. Pennsylvania is to give a much more important place in its educa- tional program to nature study, says Nature Magazine. The plan calls for a complete twelve years of science in the public schools, eight years of which are to be largely devoted to nature study. The new state sylla- bus on nature study has been work- ed out, and copies will soon be avail- able for Pennsylvania teachers. This will place before the teacher a com- pletely organized plan whereby she can arrange her work just as she does in geography and history. i FRIENDS TO MEETING Active Campaign for Progressive Candidate to Be Launched in District Tonight.

Tt is the intention of Health Officer Fowler toe have the poundmaster rid the streets of unmuzzled dogs and to stop attacks upon pedestrians. He may decide to increase the pound- master's force should the attacks continue. Maj. Sullivan, chief of police, today instructed members of the force to strictly enforce the regulations re- lating to dogs. It is his desire that owners of unmuzzled dogs found on the strect be prosecuted and Police Court judges may be asked tg impose the maximum penalty should®convic- tions result from trials of alleged offenders 5 Lawrence Beckert,“twenty-three, a postman, delivering mail at the resi- dence of George W.

Enrolls 60,000 Outside Helpers for Two States. Wheat harvesters in the west, hav ing completed harvesting of t wheat crop in Oklahoma and Te: are moving north and west to Kan- sas and Nebraska, where the harvest is beginning to get under way, the Labor Department announced toda Sufficient labor was obtained in Okla- homa and Texas to harvest the crops, while reports showed that demands from the wheatfields of Kansas were heavier this year than in any recent vear. The gigantic task of the farm la- hor bureau may be appreciated when it is announced the bureau had to recruit almost immediately 60,000 men outside of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas to harvest the wheat crop in those states. Fourteen million acres of wheat were represented in the three states named. Transportation of men to the harvest fields, the bu- u said, was helped by the reduced rates. which assisted ma- in saving the wheat crop in the extreme northwestern counties of Oklahoma. South Dakota will be the next field of operation where thou- sands of harvest laborers will be needed. GEN. J. B. ERWIN DIES. Georgian Served With Note in Two Campaigns. Ga., July 11.—Brig. Gen.
