GATE CITY LODGE.
Elkton Odd Fellows Move Into Their
New Hall

Elkton Odd Fellows Move Into Their
New Hall.
Last Tuesday night was the time
advertised to dedicate the new hall IN
which Gate City Lodge No. 124 will
hereafter meet in its deliberations.
Upon an urgent invitation nineteen
Odd Fellows from BrOokings drove to
Elkton that evening to witness the
ceremonies. Those in attendance
from Brookings Lodge No. 40 were:
ID. Fl. Campbell, Phil Pcsark, II. A.
Gray, Roscoe Young, W. HI. Murphy,
L. II. Storgaard, E. Close, j. j. Nc
Donald, Arthur Duff, Jas. +. Brooke,
f. Walter, G. B. Habcr, J. II. Nelson,
Wallace Mattice, Thos. Stedman,
Geo. N. Breed Harold HaroldsOn,
Nels Gulick, r. r. Lloyd.
At SOclock the lodge was formally
called to order and after a brief session
a recess was taken. Then followed
well arranged dedication program.
About II o'clock the assembly was
presented with lap boards and
served with one of the finest spreads
this writer has ever had the pleasure
of partaking Of. The banquet was
prepared by the ladies and proved
that there is good material for
Rebekah degree lodge, and this addi-
tion is expected within few mohths.
After all had been satisfied with
delicious food brief speeches were
called for and the responses were in
teresting to all present. 1t was three
O'Clock when the BroOkingS delega-
tiOn arrived home and every brother
felt that he had received ample pay
for taking the 36-mile ride.
Our Elkton brethren may well feel
proud of the growth of their lodge.
bout fifteen months ago the lodge
was organized with seven charter
members. The enrolment now num-
bers tifty-one members and is each
week increasing. The fraternity are
equally justified in being proud of
their new hall. TheO. Meyer, that
prince of good citizens, fitted up the
lodge room over his store in the finest
style. The officers chairs are uphol-
stored with plush and have appropri-
ately carved backs. All the chairs
are of the best make, the affairs are of
special pattern and handsomely de-
signed carpet covers the floor while
the walls are decorated with hand
some oil paintings executed by Mrs.
Theo. Meyer-even the curtains have
appropriate designs painted by the
same artistic hands. The hall has
been leased for a term of years after
which the furniture will be the prop
erty of the lodge. ElktOn may well
take a pride in her lodge of Odd Eel
lows, every member of whom are
Jealous workers both for the lodge and
the gate city. The members of
Brookings Lodge will not soon forget
the dedication of the new hall which
is to be the home of our young sister
lodge and will long cherish a warm
spot in their hearts for the kindness
shown them on this and previous
occasions.
