that the lodge has received from
grand protector in fourteen years, and

ton. She was met at her destination
by a committee of the lodge, escorted
to the leading hotel and shown many
courtesies until 1t was time to attend
eight members of the lodge were pres
ent and gave her a rousing welcome.
Then came the business methods and
exemplifieation of the work, which
showed that the members of the lodge
are not behind the others in that par
tieular. After the close of the lodge
there was a banquet, which demon
strated that members of the lodges in
the interior are as a rule, more lavish
in their hospitality than many in the
city lodges. Mrs. e. t. Parker was the
toastmistress. In addition to the
supper there were speeches until an
early hour in the morning.

membership in Auburn and in Sacra-
mento last week.

had speaking parts in the work did re-
markably well and. were accorded a
meed of praise at the close of the eefe-
mony. The lodge also admitted one
member by card. The recently install
ed protector is bending her efforts to
make this lodge not only working
protective one, but first-class social
one.
