Mr. Haas referred to Bavls as one of the "best qualified and most competent board members the city has ever had." The Bavls letter follows: I believe in Richmond. I believe in her past achievements, In the men and women who created and conserved that I might produce and earn, enabling me to buy and pay in the courage of her pioneers whose wisdom and foresight planned and built such a city, every foot of whose ground is worth in gold its market value, because the brain and brawn of man has added wealth to nature's own endowment.

It must go on record as the pioneer movement to a more generous adopt ion of this form of lighting in our city and I hope no hesitancy in predicting that ere Ions:, the exaiDle set bv I North Ninth street, will be adopted by I every important part of our city. should win." he said, "we should see a Germany of triumphant warriors seek ing who it could devour, looking out for fresh spheres, or shall I say fresh hemispheres to conquer," .; No. one could. feel a greater, obliga tion of debt to the fleet than does Lloyd-George.
