Dear Folks at home: When 1 last wrote about my approaching visit to the city of Lyons I did not fully appreciate my opportu nity. The trip is over now and wo are back to work auain. everv one a better soldier than when he went. There were 2f0 men nicked from this regiment who. nlonir with men picked from two other regiments, formed a battalion to represent the United States in the ceremonies at Lyons. more were He ir an. Enir s 1. Italian, and French troops there, Last Monday evening State Manager, L. M. Thomas pre sented to the St. Johns Council 2775, Knights and Ladies of Se curity, the coveted prize for last quarter, the state banner, which has been won by our Council. This is a great honor lor St. Johns Council, also for the city, as we have here in Portland some of the strongest councils in the country. The famous Kirkpatrick Council of Portland, with a membership of nnnrlv lfiOO members, have had tho state banner most of the time, having won it right along. and they were of the opinion that it belonged to them, and they thought that it was as safe in their hall as if it was under lock and key. They never dreamed that little old St. Johns Council had enough pen to try and win the banner, but I guess we caught them napping this time. This had been a great year for St. Johns Council. Wo now occupy our new homo and have won the banner und wo want to trv to keen it here. We had u bitr feed last Monday night. Don't forget the big dances we have every Saturday night they are for everybody who are look inir for a trood time: also every other Monday evening. We also started our campaign to keep the banner here. It will run lor six weeks: the losers will banquet the winners. Uro. uasser and Urn. Holborir iravo some entercs tintf talks. Sister Kvorett is .
