Enjoyable Occasion.

Last Friday afternoon and evening
our Masonic brethern of Driftwood en-
joyed the annual visitation of District
Deputy Grand Master Mussina, of
Lock Haven, who installed their of,
fees for the ensuing Masonic year,
commencing on st. Johns Day next
Dec. 27-the attendance being very
large. A number of Emporium Lodge
members were on hand, as usual, to
help devour the many good things pre-
pared by the Driftwood ladies, who
have established an enviable reputa.
ton as caterers to the hungry man.
The elegant banquets prepared by the
Driftwood ladies for several years,
have taken strong hold on our
"bOys,' who invariably ask when in
vited to attend Banquet "Who
gets up the spread?' When informed
"the ladies, with Judge Huntley as
Toast Master, it settles it right there
we all go sure pop. Ye editor regrets
that upon all occasions be leaves his
appetite at home, especially when H.
J. Darren is on hand.
Seriously, the occasion was very
enjoyable one and highly enjoyed by
the following Emporium brethren:
Geo. J LaBar, L w. Gaskill, |. X.
Hockey, H. j. Darren, VIM. j. Buck,
Willis Gaskill, Jasper Harris, c. S.
Allen and II. II. Mullin.

ing was recently elected Bishop OF
Utah. Many PRESS readers will re-
member this popular and able divine,

place.
Chas. f. Kaye and George A. How
ard, of this place, have removed to
Rochester, n. Y, for the winter. They
will take up a course Of study in
modern commercial methods at the
Rochester Business Institute. The
great industrial prosperity which that
city is enjoying makes it one of the
best places in the country in which to
study up-to-date business methods.
The bank statements for that city last
month showed an aggregate deposit of
more than S110,000,000. Since the
great fire last spring new buildings
erected for industrial and manufactur-
ing purposes have been erected at a
cost of nearly $4,000, 900. Competition
for good places is naturally very keen
but r. b. l., men have always been in
demand and are always given prefer
ence over those who come to the city
without previous commercial training
