of the Congregational clergy. The Rev.
Dr. Barrows of Greenwich and the Rev.
]. c. Emery of Bridgeport were also re-
ceived into membership.
After the transaction of this business

scribe Rev C. F. Stimson.
REV. Mr., McNeille will fill the pulpit
on Sunday evening for the Rev Joel S.

will doubtless be large congregation
to hear him"

Grand Lodge Coming.

The next meeting Of the Grand
Lodge of the knights of Pythlas of
Kansas will be held in lola. The
Uniformed Knights will also meet
here and the grand council of
the Rathbone Sisters This decision
was reached at Topeka Tuesday
evening and telegraphed to the lola
Knights by the delegates who went
to Topeka with the avowed purpose
of bringing the Grand Lodge here,
and they did.
The next years. meeting will be
about the present time in May and
the number Of de egates who may be
expected to attend is placed conserva-
lively at 1900. In addition to these
there will be a lot of visitors who will
come to zee the town and follow the
crowd. lola had her first experience
az q convention town when the Wood.
men held their district log rolling
here, and che proved then that she
could take care of and feed large
crowd, in fact she had food prepared
for several people who did not cone.
The X. p. meeting will differ from
the log rolling in this respect: The
log rolliNg lasted one day and it was
necessary to furnish sleeping room to
only few hundred people. The
Grand Lodge will convene in the
morning and the regular sessions will
occupy two full days. The delegates
will probably arrive one day, remain
over two full dsys and leave on the
fourth day, so that it will be neces-
sary to care for the crowd for part Of
four days, and the private houses OF
the city will have to be converted
temporarily into hotels.
But lola will haHdle the crowd and
show it good time and there is a
year of growth ahead of US before We
have to grid ourselves for the task.
