Kadosh and St. Albans commnnderies,
of Philadelphia, at the Jermyn, and
Lieu le Veut commandery, of Wilkes
Barre, at Guernsey hall, Washington
avenue. Baldwin II commandery, of
Wllliamsport, will entertain at the
Scranton house with a band concert
by tho celebrated Fish Military band,
of Willlainsport. There will also bo
a continuous run of informal concerts,
serenades nnd exchanges of visits dur
ing tho afternoon and evening. It can
be taken for granted that the central
city today will bo filled to overflowing
with music and sociability.
Gethsemane commandery, No. 75, of
York, will attend the conclave in a
body and will participate In the par
ade. They will leave York this morn
ing at 10 o'clock and will come by way
of Sunbury, arriving here at 5.24 p. m.
Quarters have been secured at the
Hotel Gunster, 415 Mulberry street.
Temple commandery, No. 60, of
Tunkhannock, will arrive this after
noon and will have headquarters at
the Valley house. It will be accom
panied by tho Leek Cornet band, of
Plttston. A large percentage of Its
seventy-four members will attend. The
most prominent men of Tunkhannock
and vicinity are members of this com
mandery. The parade tomorrow morning is to
be made espelally attractive by a novel
feature introduced at the suggestion of,
Grand Commander Penman: After the
formal review takes place, tho forty
bands will mass and tho sir knights
will form Jn a solid body, with tho
banners assembled in one great group.
The reviewing stand will bo passed a
second time, with all the bands play
ing In concert an arrangement of "On
ward Christian Soldier" and "Ave
Marie," the music for which was sup
plied each bandmaster two weeks ago.
The commandery sessions will be
made especially Important by reason
of the fact that amendments to tho
constitution are to be passed upon.
There will be probably Home onliven
ment added to the sessions by reason
of the fact that three very popular
Templars from three different parts of
tho state aro being discussed for the
ofllco of grand junior warden, the one
oflice for which there is an actual elec
tion. There three are Sir Knights
Frank McSparren, of Erie; David O.
McCullum, of Wilkes-Barre und An
drew S. Stayer, Altoona
Want tho Next One.
Philadelphia, with Its big delegation,
will strenuously urge tho grand com
mandery to give the fiftieth annual
conclave to the City of Brotherly Love.
This being tho semi-centennial con
clave, It Is, argued, the largest city in
the state should have it. The fact that
a Philadelphia man, V. K. Sir Ezra S.
Bnrtlott, is to be the next grand com
mander, Is put forward as another
reason why tho conclave should go to
Philadelphia.
Deputy Grand Commander Bartlott,
Grapcl Aecorder W. W. Allen and Sir
II, AV. Simen, n member of tho llnanco
committee, will arrive hero early this
morning to attend to tho preliminary

AA'hat Is doubtless the prettiest, most
artistic and incidentally the most ex
pensive souvenir publication over issued
in Scranton Is the souvenir programme
which the local sir knights will present
to their guests. It is in book shape of
a size that will snugly fit in a coat
pocket, contains seventy-five pages of
heavy calendered paper and is enclosed
in an illumined cover, on tho front page
of which Is beautifully designed repre
sentation a body of Temrtlurs emerg
ing from a castlo to greet a band of
pilgrims. A sunburst forms a buck
ground for tho Templar motto, "in
Hoc Slgno Vlnces," Inscribed beneath a
passion cross.
On the first page following the fly
leaf in red and black old English type
appears the following greeting: "To yo
brave knightes and ludies fayro so
journing for yo tyme In yo goodlio cltyo
of Scranton bo peucc, a niosto gracious
welkom und a snfo departure wltlio
memorys mosto pleasant of yu towno."
Half-tone portraits of grand com
mandery officers and local Templurs of
prominence adorn tho front pages. Tho
programme of tho conclave, tho rosteis
of tho locul commanderles und Infor
mation concerning tho grand command
cry fill 11 dozen pages. Tho last llfty
flvo pages each contains a half-tone cut
of some buildings or beauty spot In or
about Scranton.
On the last pago is printed tho follow
ing acknowledgments;

The visiting Knight Templars will
no doubt devote some tlmo to sight

In tho week that does not bring to this

Templars will bo welcomed during
their stay In the city, and they will
Hud competent guides on hand to es
cort them through tho main building
ami the fifteen or twenty other build
ings which nro occupied in whole or In
part by departments of tho schools.
One of these annex buildings Is the
Wymbs building, 011 Wyoming avenue,
next door to St, Luke's parish house.
Here tho schools havo a very attractlvo
and interesting display In tho windows
of tho store room. This display was
especially arranged for the beuellt of
this week's visitors, and It consists of
an exposition of tho text-books written
especially for courses of study taught
by the International Correspondence
schools; the outfits used by students;
spesclmens of work dono by students
of tho schools, and placards contain
ing Interesting Information concerning
tlm trrouith uiwl uni'lr nt tba Institution
dining the past ten years. In addition
to this display, thero will be conducted
In this building demonstrations of how
tho schools teach French, Spanish ojid
German with tho aid of tho Edison
Slumlord phonograph. This system of
tt-achlng tho foreign languages is de
cidedly one of the most remarkable de
velopments of tho Twentieth century,
Whllo tho attempt has been mado to
teach modern foreign languages by tho
alii of the graphophone, the system
of tho International Correspondence
schools is so perfect that It has been
endorsed by authorities In all parts of
tho United States and Canada. Dur
ing tho stay of tho Knight Templars In
Scranton, these demonstrations will bo
held, and the visitors uro cordially in

how It is possible to learn to speak
French, Spanish and Uerumn cor
lectly without tho expense of a per
sonal teacher! . - ,
