REBEKAH ODD FELLOWSHIP.
A stranger visiting Naomi lodge, No.
T. on Saturday night, from the splen-
did way in which the business of the
lodge vas handled would have
judged that it was the end instead of
the commencement of the term, and
the officers were veterans at their
work instead of just newly installed
which only goes to show that persistent
energy and a little hard work cannot
help but succeed. In comforting the
degree the same excellent trait was
discernable on the part of many of the
members of the staff, and one and all
are to be commended for their zeal.
That same spirit, if carried into other
quarters of the work of the lodge,
will double the membership before
snow flies at the end of 1896 Two
members-elect We're admitted to the
lodge and received a cordial greeting.
An absent Odd Fellow telegraphed
his wife from Mercur: II send you a
kiss" He received for reply: Spruce
young man called and delivered the
kiss in good order"
An exchange says that when a man
and wife joins a Rebekah lodge the
wife becomes the mans sister. In the
lodge rooms he can jaw his sister, but
when they arrive at HONEYWELL, that's
a horse of another color.
Kansas had 131 Rebekah lodges
December 81. with a membership of
1856. The per capita tax was $2,692.49.
NOTES.
The question was asked yesterday,
who concocted that society notice in
a morning paper?"
Naomi Rebekah lodge needs a mis-
tress of the wardrobe"
The ball on next Thursday night is
promised success. Those in charge
are more than ambitious to make it
successful; they are determined it shall
be 50. The music engaged is the best
the city can produce and programme
in line with the time has been arrang-
ed. The grand march will be called
promptly at $50 p. m. and carriages
may be ordered for midnight.
Brother Budds, the genial captain of
Naomi's degree staff, has been doing
the gallant to his capable little army of
ladies' It's an excellent picture of the
gentleman, and will be highly valued
by the recipients.
AT meeting of the board of direc
tors of the Odd Fellows Building aSso-
citation held on Saturday night, the
following officers were elected for the
present year: Sidney w. Darke, presi-
dent; John NJ. Breeze, vice president;
William McGillivray, secretary, and
John T. Buckle, treasurer.
1t is DESTROYS that Utah and Jordan
lodges should only transact needed
business on Thursday next so the mem
beers may have a chance to enjoy them
selves at the ball.
The remarks of Brother Baumgerten
on Saturday night, when referring to
the new Rebekah lodge, were eminent
ly correct.
You cannot build UP the order unless
you build up your lodge, therefore work
for new members.
To the influence of Odd Fellowship
and the dissemination of its principles
may be attributed many of the ad-
vanced ideas of today
Send in your orders early for extra
copies of the next number of the odd
Fellow. 1t will be an excellent produc-
ton.

Brown of Jordan lodge No. 8.
The encampment has some impressive
and beautiful degrees, such as each Odd
Fellow may be proud to possess. Those
who have not passed upward should
consider this subject and endeavor to
thoroughly learn whatever is to be
taught in the order by connecting
themselves with the higher branch
