18TH ANNIVERSARY
OF the Odd Observation-Disclosures by
Local Lodges.

The S5th anniversary of Odd Fellow
ship in America was celebrated by the
Augusta members of the order, with a
special service at the State Street Free
Baptist church, Sunday morning. The
different bodies met at Odd Fellows

1t was the largest turn out of Odd
Fellows on q SIMILAR occasion for many
years. The day was fine and the way
was pleasant At the church pews had
been reserved ana Il large audience
had assembled. Decorations showing
the symbols of the order and n picture
of Thomas N-ildey, the American
founder, were in evidence. The floral
display WAS tasty and beautiful. Rev
c. G. Mosher. pastor of the church, de-
ilNtttu ttt tilillINtlS.Aly sermon from
Luke 12:1J, "A mans life CONSISTENT
not in the abundance OF the things
which he possesseth.' He said: 1.-The
Divine teacher emphasized the truth
that being is more than possessing;
life is larger than its belongings. That
man has lived in vain who mas only
lived to acquire. Life does not con-
SSt III stocks and bonds and landed
estates. but in true conceptions OF
duty, in right ideals of life, and in a
Just and right use of life'S Opportuni-
ties.
We have come to the S5th anniver-
sary of our order. April &c, 1919,

This Morning.

Commissioner Carleton has been
reading up for the past few days, on
the subject of the treatment of sheep
on the islands along the coast of Maine.
How his interest in this subject was
first aroused can best be stated by
reproducing the following paragraph
winch appeared in Il Rumford Falls
letter in a recent edition of the Lewis

MI. Gardner of the State Grange is
much exercised over the question. If
he is 50 anxious 20 do ccod. why doesn't
he take up the matter Of abuse to sheep
