The 0. E. 5. Entertains.
Last Thursday evening the mem
bers of Ruby Rebekah Lodge 1. O. 0.
F. and other invited guests were en-
tertained at social session by We'll
come Chapter, o. E. S. at the Masonic
Hall. After a pleasant entertainment
consisting of songs, recitations and
instrumental music on the piano aud
guitar, all repaired to the banquet
hall on the lower floor aud were treat
ed to the best supper of the season.
| The ladies of the Eastern Star spared
no pains to make the evening sue
cess and it was certainly appreciated
by all the guests. These social sess-
ions, especially between organiza-
tons whose aims are similar, increase
the entente cordiale between the
lodges and the individuals, and make
the bright spots of the year.
Go to the L. M. for the choicest
grades of tea and coffee.
Oscar Bailey who was sentenced at
the last term term of the superior
court to pay fines amounting to $3.50
and costs, amounting to as much
more, for illegal liquor selling, has
decided that he can make money by
| serving out his fine and sentence in
abe county Jail and thus Mason Coun-
| ty foots the cost bill, and feeds him
| for the winter. It is a sad fact that
almost any county case is just about
| half finished, and the costs and ex-
pense, by some hook or crook get sad
died on the county. These different
| cases of similar "cussedness'' which
have called upon the 1aw-abiding tax
payers to pay the enormous cost bills,
demand that the laws be amended so
that the interests of the counties may
be protected. This county also needs
a rock pile.
