There are about three hundred delegates and visitors at the conven- tion, all members of the order. but not of the grand lodge. The attendance is larger than expected and hotel ac- commodations were taxeq to the limit, but the visitors were not fussy, fitted themselves to the conditions, and all were accommodated. To get this convention to Westerly required_considerable_activity on the part of the delegates from Lady Leslie lodze, and much devolved upon the members in preparing proper recep- tion and accommodation. But the lo- cal lodge was equal to the emergency and the arrangements for the con- vention proveq a success_through the energetic efforts of Mrs. Bessle Rear- don, chairman and a committee com- posed of Mrs. Bessie, Stillman, Mrs. Bella Sawyers, Miss Ruth Archie and Mrs. Margaret Greenman, The grand lodge iscomposed of chief daughters of the order. the past chief daughters are delegates-at-large and the convention i{s made up of these and the ~ representatives of subordinate lodges. The order comprises. sixi Jodges with a total membership o 5,000 in the United States and Can- ada. - The first session of the convention was held Tuesday afternoon, with Mrs. Katherine® Mitchell .of Kearney, N. J., grand chief daughter, presiding. Af- ter the formal opening Of the grand lodge, there was Initiation of chief] dayghters Into membership and _the transaction of routine business which included the reports of officers. From these reports it was shown that the organization is progressing and was never in better condition. At the open- ing business session the grand chief daughter congratulated the sisters on the large attendance, which evidenced interest in the advancement of the order and all it represented. She real- {zed that many who came from a great distance to attend the convention: did so at a personal sacrifice, and it served to prove that the’ Scotch.wo- men of this country were loyal to Bon- ne Scotland as well as to the country of thefr adoption. Mrs. Mitchell urged the women to.stand fast to the prin- ciples of the organization, and thus aid each other in time of distress and pre. serve forever the good name of old Scotland. { 3 The business transacted was all for the good :and Welfare of the order, but as the Daughters of Scotia is & se- cret organization, the session was with closed and guarded doors. The grand lodge was in session from two until four o'clock and then the doors were opened to thé representatives from the various lodges. After a gen- eral session of an hour's duration, the convention was adjourned to 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. After adjournment. Monday evening, supper was served in Hibernian hall by the members of Lady Leslie lodge, and the visiting Daughters of Scotia had realization of the real hospitality of their sisters in Westerly. - At Tucs- day's session officers for the ensuing year will be elected and the busin: of the convention will be complete [In the evening there will be a redsp- ton and banquet in -Hibernian hall in which the clansmen will- partici- pate, b i The present officers are: Mrs. Hath- erine Mitchell of Kearney, N.

Mr, Coon says that his men have found on several occa- sions “at _the point indicated, a bushel or two of garbage that has been dump- ed there, perhaps as a.matter of con- venience; rather than pay for the carting away of the stuff from pri- vate premises.
