He made an earnest for uniforming all camps and re- ferred to the button and its significance to the Spanish War Veterans. He said: “The button of the Spanish War Veteran typifies and symbolizes the quickened pulse at the sound of the drum beat and the spirit hearkened to by the elect of our land.” ¢ All other societies, both social and fraternal, were open to practically ev— eryone according to station in life and other conditions, but the button of the Spanish War Veteran could only be worn by, one who had served his coun- try in the army or the navy or allied branches. He wore his at all times and he was a member of many other organizations. He considered the but- ton more than all the others, as he had carned it even at what might have proved the sacrifice of his_very life. He paid a high tribute to Past Com- mander in Chief Charles W. Newton nd also to Adjutant General Saunders. at the Bijou ana Linen Suits For Hot Summer Days What woman doesn't admire the cool distinetion of a Linen Suit for the hot Summer days.
