AS by the comforting of the de-
grees upon members of Aloha

themselves and elect their officers.
This was on the following evening
Thursday when these knights
were elected and installed officers
for the balance of the current term:
VIM. &. Mckay, p. c.; Albert
Barnes, Chan. Com; George Her.

George Ross, M. of F. ); George c.
Potter, X. of r. & S.; Charles M.

At the conclusion of the installa-
ton ceremonies, Bro. d. Dayton as
Dep. Sup. Chancellor, handed over
to the Chan. Com. the Charter of the
new lodge granted by the Supreme
Lodge, knights of Pythias of the
World. In this connection it may
be stated that the lodges in this
kingdom work directly under
the Supreme Lodge, and are not
subordinate to any Grand Lodge,
there being none in the jurisdiction
of the Hawaiian Islands. Washing

headquarters of the Supreme Lodge
of the world.

To those who are curious to in.
quire what are the benefits to be de
rived by becoming Knight of Ply
thias, suffice it to say that the three
great pillars of the Order are found
ed upon Friendship, Charity anc

its share of the responsibility TO
the care and support of its widow:
