81. NJ. Meyers, did not forget to
bring the stereopticon belonging to
his lodge, and half hour was most
pleasantly spent in observing some
splendid views. Particularly striking
views representing rescue in extreme
peril were made much more effective
by the wonderful power of song. The
quartette sang the old familiar hymn,
Crock of Ages during the exhibition
of the views, and a more touching COM
bination of pictures and music can not
we'll be imagined. 80 y. -
The social part of the evening was
brought to a close by the fall of the
gavel in the hand of Mr.. Dobbin
Many expressions of regret were heard
by the assembled guests that the enter
tainment could not be prolonged.
The ladies departed for their homes,
the lodge was again in session and did
not close until nearly five o'clock in
the morning. After the close of lodge
the hours were whiled away until
train time by recalling old reminis-
cences, relating new ones, singing
songs and eating ad libitum.
The time passed and somewhat tired
but cheerful the special car received
| it's load of human freight and many Of
them settled down for a nap. O. L..
Cutter was among the number who
had fallen into doze while the car
yet remained on the side-track here.
In some manner his ticket was lost,
after feeling in every pocket and look
ing in the top of his hat, and other
sundry places about his person for the
piece of paste board, he accused Bro.
Allen of having purloined his ticket.
A lively tilt was avoided by the inter-
ruption of boys from No. 10, who
smoothed the ruffled waters and re-
minded him that it was his duty to
pay the reverend gentleman's fare as
he had agreed before leaving Anoka.
Expressions of approval and congrat-
ulations were time and again extended
to the members of the home lodge. for
their generous, free-hearted hospital.
ity;, and great praise was bestowed
upon the commodious and cheerful
lodge-room and the spacious rooms pro-
vided for other purposes in connection
with lodge work. Every visiting
brother went away well satisfied with
| his reception IN injection, Expressing
4 it as one 81 the best Masonic gather
ings he had ever attended,. Members
of Fraternal Lodge had no fear as tt
the result when the matter was under:
taken. The committees selected were
all men especially adapted to the parts
assigned to them and were ably assisted
by their wives and numerous other
lady friends. The only regret is thai
more of the townspeople could not be
invited, but all we're invited that coulc
be taken care of with the numerous
guests who came from abroad.
