ST. JOHNS DAY.
ST. Johns day, June "a, was fittingly
celebrated by the Masons of Weber
lodgS No. 6, at the Hot Springs. The
affair was advertised as a basket pic
mic. but though there have been picnfcs
and pjcnics at the springs, there was
never such one as this. 1t was one
continuous round of gaiety and jovial
fellow feeling. Nearly every Mason in
Ogden was present with his family, and
each had the privilege of inviting two
guests from outside the order.
About o'clock the picnicers were
startled by the sound of music toward
the south, and few minutes later there
marched up 10 the grounds the follow
ing gentlemen from Salt Lake:
F. c. Schramm, Charley Stanton,
Chester Mason and w. w. Woodman.
They were arrayed in white hats and
busters, and carried drums which they
beat Justify. A banner carried by one
of them informed the onlookers:
I'VE are not the pioneers OF Al, but
the hustlers Of '97 "
Judge Macmillan made brief speech
in the pavilion, and so did f. c.
Schramm, the burden of his speech be-
ing that the long walk from Salt Lake
had made him hungry.
In the evening the inimitable Charley
Stanton sang a song to the tune of
''Ta-ra-ra, Boom de Ay." 1t hit off the
fads and foibles of some of the well
known Masons in such a manner as TO
bring out the most uproarous applause.
1t is too good to keep. and is here pub

We've come all the way from lions
To sing a little song and see how 'twould

Some say George schramm went to
To see the kooche-kooche girls use their

For It don't give a chance to an active

I fear the basket lunch would have been
If brother George Kelley hadn't helped
to make it go;
It's really too bad that his locks won't
But When hair was given out he was in
the back row.
Brother Coolidge wants to sing of the

Teddy Abbotts wonder at setting
And he rode fifty miles getting ready for

While Epperson. no doubt, gets rest

For his massive, fairy yarn about that

When the grand lodge met in Zion years
They aid the best they could and it

The banquet disappeared with rush

But Brother Alex Toponce put sugar IN

Chester Mason has quit ogden and come

To show the chosen people selling tickets

By this time I'm sure you all will rejoice
That my effort at song mas maze
