The membership of these committees en-
braces more than one thousand members OF
the fraternity. who have been buster than
the proverbiaI bee for four months, and who
are now about to see their plans bear fruit.
With these committees to form the gen.
eral plans of the fair representatives Of
thirty of the Masonic bodies in this juris-
diction are cooperating, and their share
of the work will be exhibited at Conven-
ton Hall for the next two weeks. In
hearty sympathy with the men in their
efforts to erect q new temple are the MEM
bers Of the Order of the Eastern Star, who
are bending their energies toward making
the present enterprise a success In the
largest sense. Each body participating mas
an active working committee, the average
of each being about sixty men and women.
making a total of at least 800 active help
orc With this immense body of workers,
all with a common end in view, II is pe-
lieyed by the fair management that there
can be nothing but success for this year s
venture.
In addition to the vast expenditures or
human energy the financial outlay Incl
don't to such an enterprise is comparatively
large The managers of the fair have laid
their plans carefully. with view to saving
every cent that could be saved, and with
a view to economizing wherever 1t was
possible and yet the expense OF the pres
ent fair will reach the enormous total OF
SO, 600 before the close of the exposition.
The one item of decorations cost 5000, and
the preliminary expense, printing, postage
clerical force at headquarters, rent OF con-
vention Hall and the actual running eX-
penses of the fair, make up the total
named. The members of the board of con-
troll did not have to ask credit for any
item. however as the funds for meeting
the expenses of the preliminary work were
advanced by the Masonic Temple Asso-
citation from it's reserve funds. And even
with this great expenditure the fair man
ayers belve that they will realize a hand
some profit on the venture.
Managers of the various enterprises say
that visitors to the Masonic fair will be
offered a little of everything in the way
of bargains, instruction, entertainment and
amusement. They have endeavored to
provide for the bargain counter fend, the
careful buyer, the seeker after information
and the blase individual who has rubbed
the bloom off the peach of life and is
searching for new sensations. The last
