10 the State Organization 1t the An
nuai Meeting Being Held in
Parkersburg.

Clarksburg Masons win present to
the Grand Masonic Lodge OF West
Virginia at the annual convention
being held in Parkersburg this week,
proposition to make clarksburg its
permanent meeting place by Joining
with the Clarksbnrg Masons in the
burlding of Masonic temple here.
II the idea prevails, the plans for
the temple the local Masons are pre-
pairing to build, will be altered so as
to include provisions and arrange
ments for permanent home and
headquarters for the Grand Lodge OF
West Virginia, in addition to quar-
tiers for the local order.
The proposition had been consid-
cred by the local Masons and met
with such hearty favor because OF IT'S
practicability.l that committees were
appointed from the Blue lodge. the
Royal Arch chapter. the command
cry of Knights Templar, the building
committee of all of them and from
the building company. These COM
mittees will present the proposition
to the Grand Lodge and will vigore
onsly endeavor to persuade the
Grand Lodge to join with the clarks-
burg Masons in the erection of mag
nificent Masonic headquarters in this
city.
The erection of the proposed
Masonic temple Mn Clarksburg, on
the fine lot on West Pike street near
the corner of Fourth recently pur-
chased for the purpose, however.
does not hinge upon the action of
the Grand Lodge in joining with the
local Masons. The Clarksburg home
will be erected in any event. as
plans to that end have already been
made and are being carried out. But
the idea to have the cooperation or
the Grand Lodge for the purpose or
securing a permanent home for Il
was so striking and the advantages
of having the home in such central
location as clarksburg so inviting,
that 1t was decided, after thorough
discussion. to breach the proposition
to the Grand Lodge for serious con-
sideration.
The delegates to the Grand Lodge
convention will push the movement
with a vim and the people OF
clarksburg generally. as well as all
of the clarksburg Masons, hope that
they will be successful.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER u, 1907

The money panic through which the
country has Just passed has impressed
upon President Roosevelt that some
thing ought to be done to rectlfy the
admitted evils of our currency system
1t would seem that as head of the he
publican party this fact should have
been impressed upon him ten years ago
The Republican party came into control
of the government in 1897 on the pledge
to rectify those evils, and it has been in
control ever since 1t has repeated that
pledge time and again, but has done
nothing to redeem it. The President
SAYS in his message that we should have
a better currency system, but he does
not know how we should get it, but
advises congress TO give it TO rs, some
how.
In his report the Secretary OF the
Treasury says there is need Of wise iinan-
cial legislation for the prevention of dis
asters. He thinks there should be pro.
vision for greater elasticity in the cur
rency. But what particular form this
action should take, he says, must ne
left to congress. So it appears that
neither the President nor his Secretary
has any plan for relief. The whole
question is left to congress, which Will
doubtless have trouble in treating 1t
with that wisdom that il necessary III

POOLING AWAY HIS MONEY.

AS rule drunk man is the biggest
fool on earth, but once in while a
drunk man does say something which
contains real humor. A Kansas paper
tells this one;
Old Nick Naylor, who was once the
town drunk around Downs, was stand
ing on the street corner one busy Sat-
urday in his usual half intoxicated con
dton A farmer passed down the
street with an arm full of groceries.
Old Nick viewed him with an air of dis.
dain for a minute, then turning to a
man standing near him said in voice
full of contempt.

money.

TIE SERIAL O. TIE YEAR.

| Mary Stewart Cuttings new serial,
The Wayfarers, begins the Decem-
Der MCCLURE's. Mrs. Cutting keeps
! the same setting which she so success
fully used for Little Stories of Married
Life" From the moment Justin Alex

boat with his hand beneath his wife's
cloak gripping her arm, until the clos
ing chapter, there seems to be no place
TO pause.
THE sudden and unexpected meeting
Of husband and wife has singular ele
ment in it, it is somewhat like uncon-
sciously approaching mirror in which
one views a stranger who turns ont to
be ones self. That swift and imperson-
al view gives an impression as n whole
that can be reached in no other way.
Lois Alexander noticed at once that her
husband clothes needed a brushing, and
| that the velvet collar on his overcoat
was worn at the edges she had hardly
seen the coat this year except as he was
putting it on or taking it off. 1t gave
her slight shock to see the tired lines
around his eyes that made his face look
older than she was accustomed to think
of it He, for his part, experienced the
same slight shock in looking at her, He
saw the little impeIfections in her face,
and the roses in her hat appeared to
him perhaps too pink and girlish. Yet
through all this there was an indescrib.
able thrill of happy possession and low.
! ing admiration of each other touching
sweet, and all the tenderer for the hint
Of passing years. Among all the men
around, Justin was the king; among all
women she WAS the most desirable,
