We, the members of the various Ex-Service Men's organizations knew him well. We knew how he strived to always consider our problems, how he ad- vised us, glving us the advantage of his years of experlence with ex- service men's organizations. We have lost one of our most loyal friends. Comrade Streeter was, of late years, the chairman of the Memorial Day Speakers’ Commit- tee. He assigned us our schools for speech making; he visited us fre- quently and never lost the opportu- nity to tell us of our duties to New Britaim. The entire city will grieve his death, but we of the Bervice, will grieve even more so. “The lesson of loyalty, taught us oy Comrade Streeter, will live with s forever; his spirit will always fve with us and we will follow his antil we too have reached his goal >f manliness which was furnished only by passing into the great he- yond. There is nothing that we can rmy to attempt to comfort the griev- Ing family, but we can assure them that we have lost a frlend and ad- viser whom' we will always remem- ber with tenderness and devotion. The' good deeds a man does in life- “time lives after him, and we realize this fact, especially when the final roll call is answered by our late friend, Comrade Streeter. “H. C.
