that Houston is beside herself with rage
Now she sends out the following anony

simply to show to what methods that town

signed by no committee. Masons do not
fear the light; in fact they live and move
in the light and their actions as Masons are
open to the inspection of all men. 1t will
be noted that the circular referred to Stud1-
ously avoids all reference to the fact that
the temple is constant source of loss and
steady drain upon the treasury OF the
