E1Fry.TIFrM ANNIVERSARY.
cELEBRATfUN OF THE FfFTY.FiFTH
ANNIVERSARY OF ODD FELLOw.
SHIP IN THE o. s. IN THfs CITY.

On last Sunday occurred the
iitty.ffth anniversary of Odd Eel
lowship in the United States. On
the 26th day Of April, 1919,
Thomas Wildey, an Englisntnan,
instituted at Baltimore, Nd, the
first lodge of Odd Fellows in
America, naming it Washington
Lodge No. l. From that time to
the present, Odd Fellowship has
grown and tiourished, until to-day
Lodges of Odd Fellows are to be
found in every State and Territory
OF this Union, with a membership
more than two hundred thousand
strong. With the motto "Friend-
ship, Love and TRUTH" the order
is marching on, spreading its mighty
arms across the ocean to the home
Of our German brothers, and among
the islands that dot the bosom OF
the mighty ocean, until soon its
beneficial influences will be seen
and felt in every land, and its
praises sang by every tongue.
Probably IN no other portion Of the
Union is Odd Fellowship more
prosperous Or its membership so
enthusiastic as right here on the
Pacific coast. The grand mission
6Odd Fellowship being to visit
the sick, succor the distressed, bury
the dead, and provide for the widow
and orphan, it could not fail to
attract the attention and receive the
generous and even enthusiastic sup
port cf the very best portion Of our
citizens. The benefits of the order
are almost numberless, and its in-
fluence for good is felt on every
hand.
The membership of Albany
Lodge No. 4, feeling that the occa-
sion should not be allo ged to pass
without some appropriate action on
their part. resolved to celebrate the
occasion by grand parade, Grafton,
ETC., and wind up with grand
ball and sociable in the evening
Monday the 9th was selected as
the day on which to celebrate, and
invitations were sent to the different
Lodges throughout the State to
participate with us on the occasion.
The day was all that could be
desired, bright and cheerful, the
rains ofthe two previous days hav-
ing laid the dust and cooled and
purified the atmosphere. About
ten O'Clock delegations from the
Lodges of Corvallis, Lebanon, and
other points began to arrive, and
after twelve o'clock the
steamer Alice, containing the dele
CATION from Salem, consisting Of
three Lodges and one Encampment,
landed her precious freight at our
wharf This was the big delega-
lion OF the day, numbering between
one aud two hundred persons,
accompanied by the Salem Brass
Band, and having Its own Marshal,
banners, etc. However, the Salem
boys are "true blue" never doing
anything by halves, but always
getting themselves up in good
'hape, regardless ofexpense. Soon
'fter the cars brought down the
Of WimewbaIa Encamp-
nent, from Eugene City, together
With members Of other Lodges from
'arous points in the State. There
we're probably five hundred men,
