Great Preparations Aro Jlclnp Mnrtoi
to Entertain tho Governor Aoxt
Week.
Tho Chief Executlvo of the Com-1
monwealth of 'Pennsylvania, John K.
Tenor, the man -whom the peoplo of
this beautiful State look upon with
pride, will be In Honesdale 'Wednes
day, November 15, 1911, to attend
and take part in the dedication ex
ercises of the new State armory, lo
cated on Park street.
A meeting of the general commit
tee In charge of the dedicatory exer
cises held its third session in tho
law office of Homer Greene last
Thursday evening. In the absence
of Chairman J. D. Weston, Attorney
Homer Greeno acted as temporary
chairman. The minutes of last
Tuesday's meeting were read and ap
proved. 'The following chairmen were
present: Messrs. Greene, Harden
bergh, Murrayty. Kelly, Katz, Bodle,
Gallagher, C. J. Kelley and Callaway.
Ohairman 'H,omer Greene stated
that while In Scranton on Wednes
day he saw Colonel F. W. Stlllwell
concerning the attendance of the
13th Regiment.
The committee on Invitations,
William Katz, chairman, reported
through Mr. Greene, who, while out
of town, Inquired about engraved
invitations, that they would reach
Honesdale tflie first of next week.
On motion of R. J. Murray, sec
onded by 'William Katz, It was car
ried that the general committee send
out Invitations to the dedicatory ex
ercises of the new armory to the
clergy of the town, Mayor, members
of the borough council and contrib
utors to the armory fund.
General Hardenbergh reported
that the Governor and his staff
would leave Harrisburg on the
morning of the 15th at 8 o'clock and
arrive in Honesdale about 3:15 that
day. The distinguished guests will
remain in Honesdnle over night and
will be present at the military ball
in the evening. This will be a big
drawing card, and undoubtedly will
be the only time that Governor
Tener will be in Honesdale In his
official capacity. A large number of
people, Including the school teachers
of Wayne county, will also be In an
nual institute in Honesdale that
week. It was the sense of the gen
eral committee that a program be
adopted and that Mr. Greene give
the opening historical address rela
tive to the armory.
In reference to a parade It was
suggested that citizens of Honesdale
having carriages be requested to do
nate them for that purpose. The
procession will be formed as fol
lows: Military escort.
Governor, Adjutant General, Brig
adier Commander, General Officers
with members of armory board, gen
eral committee and prominent
Honesdale citizens in each coach.
On motion of General Harden
bergh, seconded by J. A. Bodle, Jr.,
it was carried that the price of tick
ets to the dedicatory exercises be
$2, Including supper, with admission
of 50 cents for extra lady.
Tickets will be placed on sale at
the different drug stores in town,
so as to avoid the rush at the arm
ory. The capacity of the armory Is
limited to a thousand people, so it
behooves those desiring to see and
shako hands with tho Governor to
purchase their tickets early. The
sale promises to be large. '
R. J. Murray, chairman of the
dinner committee, reported pro
gress. Thomas Kelly, of the decoration
committee, is planning for light dec
orations, in that the armory build
ing will he on Inspection for the
Governor and other State officials.
In addition to tho above another
meeting was held Saturday evening
In Attorney Greene's law office.
Every member of the general com
mittee was present and from the re
ports made by the different chair
men it is evident that preparations
are forming nicely for a rousing
celebration.
At the dedication of the armorv in
the afternoon Chairman Bodle stated
that his committee had arranged for
the singing of National songs dur
ing tho exercises.
Arrangements are being made to
seat the audience during the after
noon exercises.
Tickets for the ball In the evening
will also be on sale at the armory
Wednesday afternoon.
One of the drawing cards of Gov
ernor's Day will be the Governor's
reception, which will begin prompt
ly at 9 o'clock. Governor Tener
and other distinguished guests will
shake 'hands with the people as they
enter the armory the evening of the

VETERANS HAVE A BANQUET.
Attorney Homer Greene Says Ho
Believes In Pence.
Patriotism and Politics were hap
pily blended In the after-dinner
speeches delivered Friday night at
the annual "camp fire" of Captain
James Ham Post No. 198, G. A. R
Department of 'Pennsylvania, which
was held in Freedom Hall with a
goodly number of the glorious com
pany of veterans of the Civil war and
Invited guests In attendance.
The early part of tho evening was
taken up with tho enjoyment of an
elaborato banquet served under the
direction of the Captain James Ham
Circle, No. 7G, Mrs. William Clark
president.
Commander Judge Henry Wilson
was at his best as toastmaster, and
introduced the post-prandial orators
in his usual happy vein.
Homer Greene, Esq., who is al
ways an honored guest at the cele
brations of tho veterans, was the
first speaker of the evening. Mr.
Greene prefaced his remarks by say
ing he didn't know when he had had
such a busy time In the past thirty
five years as this Summer and Fall.
He spoke of his efforts in trying to
make the coming Armory dedication
a memorable event, and said among
other things:
"I feel it's right to maintain a
military company here. When we
consider what it cost in blood and
treasure to organize and keep the
government, wo aro not ready to
give -up our soldiery. I believe In
peace. All nations should bo at
peace. I don't believe the time has
come when we can let the soldier go.
With Theodore Roosevelt, I believe
in "holding the peaceful hand out,
but keeping the big stick ready."
Mr. Greene paused in his remarks
to Invite the young ladles, who had
been serving the dinner to enter the
banquet hall, declaring that they
were entitled to hear everything
that was said, and -when they re
sponded to his invitation, he said:
"I didn't know that I could make a
speech this evening. But I know
that I can now." (j&fi
"1 have heard orators talk oh tho
platform," he exclaimed, "when I've
heard the country praised and boonf
ed, and the country decried and do
famed, but do you know through It
all it's been done in the name of a
party?
"It's the country we got to think
of and not so much tho men. If
these men who spend their time in
trying to teach men, would instill
into their minds something of the
principles of the government as firm
as the everlasting' hills, what it
means in terms of liberty and glory
to bo an American citizen instead
of crying "Stop thief" -would try to
instill the Idea oft patriotism that
looks behind the platform back to
MEETING
TOWN
COUNCIL
tho Cotihtry as an entity then we'd
have very littlo to decry In the way
of corruption.
"O London Is a man's town
And Paris Is a woman's town,
But when you come to living
There's no placo like home."
"This America is our country.
Let us be proud of it and worthy of
it:" (Applause).
Comrade Waltor -W. Wood was
called upon for a speech, but after
remarking that he had been through
two political campaigns recently nnd
telling a few humorous stories, he
retired In favor of M. J, Hanlan.
Prothonotary Hanlan, who has
delivered more political speeches
probably than any man In Wayno
county, unblushlngly stated that he
had made "several" speeches In his
life time In different localities. He
accounted for his love of speaking
by the fact that he belonged to a
somewhat loquacious race.
"These G. A. R. affairs," ho said,
"remind us of the glories of tho past
and remind us that we are citizens
of the grandest country on earth."
Mr. Hanlan, In the course of his
remarks, expressed his regret that
Saturday, "Pension Day," would be
the last time ho would have the op
portunity of meeting the veterans In
an official position. Speaking on his
approaching retirement from public
life he said:
"I have served the people of my
county In an official position for the
past twelve years. Probably no man
of my age has had as much experi
ence and success In politics as I've
had. I have had all the honors and
compensations. I feel I've served
th-party as well as I could.
"I don't feel that there Is any
great fortune In politics. Farewell!
To-morrow will be the last time I
can do official business with you.
But I shall always meet you as a
friend." (Great applause).
Hon. William H. Dlmmlck deliv
ered an Impassioned address, in the
course of which he said:
"Out of the 2,841,000 of brave
men of the nation, you are among
the survivors. On the records of the
War Department 2,841,000 men en
tered the service of their country,
and to liberate four millions of hu
man beings. It was the grandest ef
fort ever made in behalf of human
ity. No human effort ever compared
With It.
"Where will you find a more no
ble record than that of the G. A. R.
of Pennsylvania at Gettysburg?
Who was first in that engagement?
Wayne county soldiers were the first
to shoot the first shot; and they
stood there like bulwarks, like
mountains of Iron to resist the rebel
host. There are no soldiers that
stood more valiantly than the sold
iers of our county.
"The average age of those 2,841,
000 soldiers did not exceed twenty
years. You took the life-blood of
1:0,000.000 people. You were tho
flower of the nation." (Applause).
Comrade Isaac Ball brought the
speech-making to a close by explain
ing that "It was soldiers from
Wayne county that closed tho fight
at Gettysburg just at sunset of the
third afternoon."

James Ham Post, No. 198, G. A. R.,
