Rather than pay $50 year rent for
the use Of a hall In which TO meet once
month, the Woodmen lodge at Condor
has concluded to buy u interest in
the Armory hall, for $500, the other Fl
being owned by the X. OF Z. and D 0 I
lodges. Accordingly, Frank Springston,
from whom the money was borrowed
last week bought Pat Skelly's seven
shares, at $50 share, and Il is the in.
tention to buy three more shares owned
by ]. II. Downing. In order to pay this
we understand II is the intention to ask
all OF the so or 60 members here to pay
one years camp dues in advance, Il
which we believe there 10 little or nj
objection. We think this is good in
vestment, as the rent from balls, circui
court, etc, will be more than suflicien
TO pay the camp dues.
