The Celebration OF the Ami,
versary of Odd Fellowship. A
Good Time at Grand Rapids
The brothers of the order in Grand
Rapids made elaborate preparation for
celebrating the 57th anniversary OF
Odd Fellowship in America. AS they
always do; they made big success OF
the occasion Of feasting and rejoicing.
Gcn'l Kellogg, Of Wausau, was the
chosen orator, and right good address
did he give the three link boys, and ye
people minus link The address was
dclivered--in fact all the public exer-
cises were held in the Methodist church.
The procession formed at the hall at 8
D. IN. and marched to the church pre-
ceded by martial music. The exercises
were impressive and heartful.
The address by General Kellogg was
the best we have listened to for years.
It was full of wisdom, and wsll spiced.
It was an able, argumentative and log
ical address. 1t was neither toe
lengthy nor too brief with a suficien-
cy Of humor, and sarcasm, and pith,
and point, and charity, and all the
good things to render it acceptable tc
ALL
We enjoyed the address hugely.
The music under the direction of E
J. Wood was exec llent. After the
exercises at the church the procession
reformed and marched back to the
hall, when the ''brothers" opened a
keg of nails and cut a watermelon, we
suspect, preparatory to attending the
BIG SUPPER
in the evening. The supper was gotten
UP BY the ladies of the Methodist so.
ciety, and such a supper !! 1t was
spread in Worthington's Hall. We
have eaten nearly three thousand sup
pers since we went out of the milk
business, and this was the boss supper
of the whole procession. 1t seemed
as though one could call for anything
from tropical fruits to brook trout
with every manner Of side dish, anC
be accommodated in a trice. The la
dies of the NJ E. Society are entitled
to til e thanks of the Order separate
and apart from the stamps for having
done so well. After the supper came
toasts and impromptu remarks inter
spersed with music which tended tt
make the evening pass most pleasantly
w verify believe that Grand Rapid
never before enjoyed herself so well
or had better time, both socially, in
telIectually and stomachically--w
don't know if that word is IL the die
tionary-than last Wednesday, a week
After the exercises at the hall thos
who chose enjoyed a social dance a
Writer'S Hall. 1t was good time al
around.
Such gatherings with so much 0
, cordiality and real brotherhood dis
played, tend to lift men up and max
the world better, and that's what th
world needs awful bad, and the church
and true Odd Fellows, and true Ma
sons, are doing it, whereof we ar
glad.
