at their Lodgeroom in Grants
vile, West Virginia on Sunday,
May 26th., 1907, at nine o'clock

and resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted.
In as much, as the Grand
Master of the Universe hath
deemed it proper for the fourth
time in the past two months to
visit, with the hand of affection,
this Lodge by the removal from
our midst of another of our
charter members, in the person
of our esteemed brother, Samuel
G. Barr, who was the first
Senior Warden of the Lodge, and
at the time of his death, the
Senior Deacon thereof, and who
during the period Of his Masonic
career had filled with marked
skill and ability nearly all of the
Offices Of the Lodge, including
the office of Worshipful Master,
and while, as a Lodge as we'll as
individuals, sincerely deploring
the loss of our departed brother,
we submit with humility and
contrition to the will of Him,
who doeth all things well, we
desire to place upon record our
appreciation Of our departed
brother. Therefore it is
RESOLVED: That in the death
of brother Barr, this Lodge has
lost one of it's most useful and
efficient members, the craft at
large a zelous and faithful advo-
cate and supporter and the COM
munity, in which he resided, an
honest and upright man and
citizen.
RESOLVED: That we, as Ma
sons, extend to the widow and
daughter and infant son of the
deceased, as we'll as to his remot-
er relations and kinsman, our
heartfelt coincidence in their
great loss and sad bereavement
and invoke for the widow and
orphans, thus left. the protect
ing care Of the order of Mason
ry, throughout the World.
RESOLVED: That, as an evil
dence of our grief, the Lodge
room and it's furniture be draped
in mourning for the period of
thirty days, and that the mem
bers Of the Lodge wear the usual
badge of sorrow for the same
period.
RESOLVED: That these reso-
lutions be spread upon the
records of the Lodge and that
a copy thereof be furnished tt
the family Of the deceased anC
that like copies be furnished tt
the newspapers of this county
with a request that they publish
the same.

They Should Reform.

Every once in awhile, but frequently
enough to be 90 often, some bank
throughout the country that has impos-
ing glass windows and expensive gilt
signs gets tired Of paying its depositors
and hangs a polite notice on the door
to that effect.
While most Of the banks are good
for don't we have their word for it?-
the banks with the closing habit are
numerous enough to give nervous pros
tration to the man who has beat the
game to the extent that he has a few
hundred dollars saved up.
What we need in this country almost
as much as the Panama canal and a
portable flying machine Is q set Of
bankers who will not labor under the
impression that the man who hands
his money over the counter to them
will not want it back some day.
They want to be broken Of the habit
of thinking that it is a Christmas pres
ent regardless of the season, and con-
gress can do no more worthy thing than
to devise a set of regulations that will
help them break the habit.
