Miss Sarah III. Spaulding, has Just re-
turned from an extended trip through
the West and California. On her way
home she visited the Worlds Fair and
made calls on Chicago friends who for
merly resided here, among them David
Barnes and George Il. Stewart. Mr..
Barnes was a son of the former owner of
Bay View Farm, a valuable country place
just outside the village, now she property
of George Birchell, and Mr.. Stewart was
at one time the highly successful mana

method Of erecting this building is per-
sisted In seems mystery to most people.
Perhaps the officers of the organization
could explain and, IL they could and
would, many curious people would be
thankful. The lodge evidently intends to
have fine building, but 1t must be said
that they are long time getting 1t.
