Some Of the members of Canton Au-
gusta, who have been in Boston the
past week in attendance at the meet
ing of the Sovereign Grand Lodge,
brought home pretty collections o.
badges which they exchanged for the
badges of the local Canton. The local
badge was real pine cone with Red.
White and Blue ribbons upon it. One
other Maine lodge had a badge WITH a
spruce cone. and still another had \
hard pine cone, but the real article
was what took the eye of the out of
the State people. The largest collec-
tions were brought home by Will C.
Mifler, Guy o. Vickery and w. II.
Perry, while several others had good
collections. The different designs and
styles are amusing. One Is gold
plated badge with the three linles and a
goat. Still others OF Boston and
vicmaty bear the bean pot. One has a
miniature bean pot arid hog to repre-
sent the pork. s
