FIFTY.THIRD ANNIvERsARY Good Sa
maritan Lodge l. 0. o. F.. Thurmoht cele-
brated its fifty.hird anniversary on Friday
evening last. Members and invited guests
met in Town Hall at O'Clock p. m. 2. G
John II. .Rouzer called the meeting to order
and introduced the speakers. Mr.. j. Frank
Grant, Secretary of the Sovereign Lodge,
discussed the principles Of the Order gener-
ally and gave his views as to the most prac'
ticable method of Strengthening it: this
should be done by individual appeal. Tho
called upon unexpectedly to mako the ad-
dress, MIR. Grant favorably impressed bis
audience by his evident carncstness in the
work.
George G. Hooper, Grand Representative,
was next introduced and addressed the meet
ing He began by saying that he was glad
to be in the presence of Odd Fellows OF
Western Maryland, where the Order was
strongest, of lodge whose name. Good Sa
maritan, suggested the most beautiful story
that had ever been told, and Oft town with
the poetic name signifying Door of the
Mountain" He said that of the fifteen larg-
est subordinate lodges of the Order in the
State, a majority were in Western Maryland
rs were also q majority of the Rcbekah
lodges of the State. That in fact, il was due
to persistent efforts of Western Maryland
members year in and year out that the Grand
Lodge finally consented to the, institution of
Rebel,ah lodges in this jurisdiction. He
called the attention oft members 10 certain
pending amendments to the constitution OF
the Grand Lodge to be acted on next April,
the adoption of which would be of great
advantage to tue Order and urged that Us
large delegation of Past Grands as possible
be sent by Good Samaritan to help the good
cause. Incidentally he referred to the Colo.
NAL history of the State and among other
things told how, whilst the passage of King
George HIS Stamp Act in 1865 had paralyzed
business in Massachusetts and other States,
the merchants sulking idly in their stores, in
Frederick County it was treated az a nullity
from the start, business went on rs usual and
twenty-five days after its passage Frederick
County Court pronounced it unconstitutional
He promised to come back and help to start
the new lodge in Thurmont whenever it
pleased the members to begin.
Immediately following this address the
members and guests were invited to sit down
to banquet.
A table thirtyfive feet long had been
placed on the north side of the Hall; it was
arranged with much taste, cut flowers beau
tifyng and rich viands weighing it. There
were three courses: oysters, stewed; oysters
fried; cold chicken and ham. There were
salads, pickles, celery, buns and crackers, all
prepared by that prince ofcaterers, "dilbert'
and served by the sisters and daughters Of
the members About seventy attended; had
the evening not been so inclement there
would have been present us many as fifty
more.
1t was q most entertaining affair in every
particular; it should and doubtless will result
in benefit to Good Samaritan the senior ol
all Orders instituted here.

The "goose bone" IS marked for a severe
