, The Masonic celebration given at this place yes
terday was well attended and proved pleasure t.
all present. Many lodges elsewhere were repre-
scented. The program for the day was carried gu
pretty much as previously announced in the Ban
ner. The heavy rain in the afternoon caused SOM
inconvenience, but the majority of the pleasure
seekers paid little attention to it. The dinner wa
extra nice, and there was more than crowd twic
!. the size could have eaten.

to say to those who received statements and hav
not as yet paid up that their names will be droppe

of his paper can afford to grant unlimited credit.
