nifty Of the late Charles E. Ide to be
erected in Oakwood cemetery and paid
for by voluntary subscriptions from
the Masons of Syracuse, the restric
tions being that no member of the
order should contribute more that 81 0.
The funds were quickly raised and the
work or securing suitable design has
progressed for some months. On
Nov. 2Sth last it was decided by a
committee in charge of the matter to
award the commission to Frank R.
Jenkins of Penn Yam, one OF the fore
most of the states sculptors,
''lt is expected that the monument
will be completed and dedicated next
September. At that time the annual
conceive of the knights Templar is to

posed to have many Of the state com.

"The committee has used the ut
most care and discretion in making a
| selection of the design for the monu-
ment. There were seventeen COM
petitors fer the work and the varied
designs were highly artistic. Each
competitor used bis utmost skill and
care in executing that which would
be suitable and satisfactory to those
concerned. The committee was i'm
partial and it endeavored from the
first to secure design that could be
judged from classical and Masonic
standpoint.
"Mr. jenkins went to Syracuse and
made careful study of the require
ments, familiarizing himself with the
architecture OF the lodge rooms, and
the life of Mr.. Ide. THIS design final

dimensions: Bottom base, 9.6X7, g.;
second base, 7.6X5.0, with the name

the opposite faces Of the monument;

the monument is IL feet. On third
base rests four separate Corinthian
columns futed and curved. These
