A. R. Chapter’s Exercises Thursday. — The Elks' observance of Flag Day, as exemplified by Westerly Lodge, was witnessed by a large audience at the exercises held for the first time in the open, Thursday evening, in cox park, The Elks' marched from' their quarters to tho park headed by the Westerly band and for half an hour before the commencement 'of the formal exercises, the band played a concert of patriotic airs. At eight o'clock the Elks proceeded to_ perform their annual patriotic de- votion to the flag. After the band played the Star Spansied Banner ,th introductor exercises were held, con- ducted by Exalted Ruler Michael J. Deady and staff ,and was followed with prayer by Chaplain Robert E. L. Mason. The band played Colurnbia, the Gem of the Ocean and Dr. Michael H. Scanion, past exalted ruler, read The Record of the Flas. Then came the most impressive feat- ure of the evening, the altar exercises, conducted by Esquire Al J. Twomey and officers of the lodge. It included the erection, in three sections, the red, the white and the blue, of the florai bell of liberty. At this point the exalted ruler said: “Brother Esquire, what farther dut: devolves upon me in honor of the day 2" Esquire—To erect upon our altar the floral bell of Liberty. Exalted Ruler—With the assistance of the proper officers, you will pro- ceed to the performance of that duty. Esteemed Leading _ Knight — As flowers are the ex; m_of every lofty sentiments in life. I bring these red roses to form the base of the symbol of patriotism. That color as employed in our national flag, signi- fies courage, loyalty and devotion. Esteemed Loyal _Knight—As cen- tral figure of this' tribute I bring these lilles. White, as shown in the emblem we celebrate, represents the dominant virtues of charity, friendship and truth. Esteemed Leading Knight—Crowning these roses and lilies, 1 bring these vi- olets, reflecting the blue of the flag and typifving justice, brotherly love and figelity. The esquire placed upon pleted floral bell, a crown evergreen and stars. Exalted Ruler—To the nation’s bell of liberty, to the welding of the na- tional colors, to the basis of the na- tion’s flag, we offer the light of the first American stars. Eleven strokes on a gong and _the exalted ruler asked the significance of the eleven bells. Esquire—That our absent brothers may be with us in these exercises. As they were worthy to be our brothers in the endorsing fraternity, so — may we ever be worthy to be their broth- ers, by steadfast devotion to the prin- ciples espoused at this altar. Auld Lang Syne was played by the band and Past Exalted Ruler Georze H. Bray read The Elks' Tribute to the Flag. State Senator Stephen J. Casey of Richmond, R. I, delivered an ad- dress that teemed with timely patri- otism. The exercises closed with the singing of America, with band companiment. the com- piece of ac- The town of Westerly scme time ago voted to install a sewer system, pur- suant to an act passed at the session of the legislature in January, 1916. Among the powers given the town was the right of eminent domain. The first exercise of that power is now be- ing used in order to get title to a strip of land on Margin street, be- longing to John Allen and wife, and which is a part of their homest:ad property. The engineers for the town have estimated that only a rectangular piece of the land, 378 feet long and 24 feet wide was necessary and the town council some time ago voted that this land be condemned, after they had offered Mr. and Mrs. Allen the sum of $25 £ was not accepted. The statute provides that in case the owners do not accept the offer, the town council shall appoint three ! suitable persons to act as a commis- sion to pass on the value of the land, and that this commission before act- ing shall give notice to the owner. three persons were appointed to act, all residents of the town of Westerly, Frank Larkin, Ev- erett A. Kingsley and Walter S. Price. | Due notice was served on Mr. Allen by Sheriff Mitchell and the hearing was fixed for Thursday afternoon. At tha: time Town Solicitor Agard ap- peared for the town and Mr. Aller vas represented by Attqrney Herbert W. Rathbun. No progress was made in taking evidence, for counsel for Mr. Allen raised the point that XMrs. Allen was a necessary party to the pro- ceeding and inasmuch as no legai -io- tice had been served on her, no action could be taken. After some discus- sion relative to the law of the case, the commission voted to continue the =t matter for two weeks, in order to give time for notice to be served on Mrs. Allen. In addition to the case of the Allen able’ to agree with the town, and more suits are predicted to_grow. out of the matter. Mr. Allen’s land i5 so situated that the sewer beds, which are to be placed on the Kenyon land, will be but a very short distance away from his house, which will make it undesirable for a home in the future, and he believes that the town ought to purchase his entire property.
