change.
New members are initiated with SOL

10 make many strange vows and agree
20 severe penalties for their violation.
The ritual prescribes that the cand:-
date shall promise to remain single;
TO make q verbatim report in open meet

cites; to write a poem or story every
month; TO perfect herself in pistol prac-

During the ceremony the members
are dressed in flowing white robes,
leaked caps and white masks, forming
ghostly company. The room is illu-
minated with two wax tapers, which
shed a pale radiance over the scene.
The penalty for breaking the, first vow
is that the bride shall have the members
Of the bachelors club, dressed in their
spooky costumes, for her attendants.
The rest of the penalties are equally
