Ester Lodge No. s meets tomorrow
The meetings are always of so much
interest, and the sisters are so attract
i've that there is no danger of a lack
OF the brothers to assist in the work Of
the lodge. If No. 8 continues to bring
in young ladies as she has been doing
for some time, there is likely to be q
stampede among the young men of the
subordinate lodges in town to put in
their applications for membership.
