10 was doing in increasing its member
ship. There has not been meeting
since December 1st last without an in
itiation.
After the regular routine of business,
the applications of four, who were de-
sirous of entering the realms of No. 10,
were read and acted upon. Two candl-
dates were initiated in the second de-
gree, after which the entertainment
and social part of the programme was
reached. Brother Silas T. Smith dug
out 200 cigars from sthe mysterious
depths of his desk, which were inlmedi-
ately passed around, and that was the
Feast of Lights
Brother Darke. recorder of No. II,
opened the ball with an amusing story
of his experiences in the A. 0. .. w.
for the past fifteen years. Brother
Lewis, also of No. II, made a short ad-
dress, and Master Workman Hicks OF
No 10, not to be outdone, held the
floor for ten minutes, and kept the
brothers convulsed with laughter. Then
the deacon of No. 10 was called upon,
and with his usual solemn face, recited
little story of wild western life that
almost paralyzed his listeners.
Prof. Poole was then introduced and
entertained the brothers for an hour
and half with his photograph, which
was greatly appreciated, after which
the lodge adjourned, the visitors thank
ing their hosts and signifying their in
tentionS of calling on No. 10 again at
an early date.
Brothers Hasbrouck, Burrows, KEEL
ley, Peterson and Newell were on the
entertainment committee and worked
hard to make the affair a success.
On Wednesday evening next No. 10
will have another initiation, and all
Workmen are invited to attend.
