Then they took a big k und descended the steps and went through the crowd, each holding one end of the open sack. They didn't have any doughnuts, but the dollars were showered into the sack. Former Governor Regis H. Posi of Porto Rico presided at the meeting Battle, Moore and Martin“Vogel were among and George Gordon Judge the speakers, The Mcintyre sack ‘was soon filled with dollars and they had to get a fresh one, while the Police Glee Club rendered vocal se- leetions. No less enthusiastic were the soenes at the Sub-Treasury steps, where a dense crowd assembled, and the Salvation Army furnished music, Miss Frances Irwin and Harriet Kel- | ley, in khaki, showing what they had been “over there,” made doughnuts as they did in France and sold them | instead of giving them away.
