The reports Of the Grand Chancel-
lor and other grand officers, as we'll
as the Individual lodge reports,
showed q decided advance both num-
erically and financially. With John
B. Snowden as our leader and pro-
tector, we have no fear that the ban
ner of Pythianism will ever trail in
the dust.
Thursday was the gala day and
each session suspended business for
this occasion. The Grand Lodges
concluded their business Friday
afternoon.
The hospitality of the Cynthian.
ian4 on this special occasion has very
clearly demonstrated to the outside
world that they know perfectly wei
how to take care Of strangers.
