W. ssSsiaa!ss ss5sS Sss" maSs s1d ms%ssss sTs'ss
and archers of one of the
most popular lodges in Los Angeles.
Winifred b. Rogers, the local deputy,
has been kept busy the last few weeks
on account of the activity shown by
the members in bringing new members.
The contest for new members is near
ing the close and Ivanhoe and Poin-
settia homesteads will unite in giving
the banquet to those who are entitled
to banquet ticket. In all probability
the banquet will be held at Levys,
but will be definitely settled and an
nounced in The Herald next Sunday
There has been a great deal of interest
manifested since this contest started,
from the fact that tickets could not be
purchased but would be given only to
the new member coming in, and the
hustler that brought him in. Ivan
hoe holds the state banner for the
largest homestead in the state and ex-
poets to win the Pacific coast banner
hefore many moons, as there is only
one homestead west of the Rockies
that outshines her, and she expects to
cause an eclipse and remove the ban
ner from Portland to Los Angeles.
Paul w. Lisle was elected official re-
porter for the Yeoman Shield of Des
Moines, Iowa, the official organ for the
Brotherhood of American Yeomen in
the United States. DIR. H. b. B. Mont
gomery was kept busy the last ten
days in examining applicants for B.
A. Y. and made good his promise that
he would examine free of charge any
two applicants brought at one time by
one member of this organization. From
the start they came in pairs and any
one not knowing that the genial doc
tor was an NJ. d. might have taken
him for parson, for in every case
ii was a man and woman who came
to take advantage of his liberal offer.
Il. A. Miller better known as the cy-
clone hustler when it comes to get
ting members, offered few well
chosen remarks on the good of the or
der. We were pleased to see Brother
Miller's smiling face once more and
that he has fully recovered from his
recent illness. Mr.. Miller is Pacific
coast manager for the B. A. Y, with
headquarters in this city, and while
north in the interest of the order (on
ms regular trip. contracted a severe
cold. He says it rains pitchforks up
there and we presume that he got his
feet wet or cold feet, or something:
anyhow he was real glad to get back
to dear old Los Angeles.
Wednesday night Ivanhoe homestead
will give box social for the benefit of
the women will bring well filled boxes
and the men bring plenty of loose
change, for we need it in our business.
A special auctioneer will be on hand to
relieve you of your cash and in return
will give you an order which will en-
title you to partake of a dainty lunch
with the donor of the box you pur-
chase. A short program will be rem
dered, followed by dancing and cards.
You do not want to miss this oppor-
tunity of having a jolly good time
Lady Rowena Mrs. Larson has the ar
rangement in charge and that itself
will assure you of good time. Mr.
Swine Herder will be in evidence and
will help relieve anyone who may be
overburdened with the coin of the
realm.
Los Angeles homestead No. 947 gave
another of its famous dances last Sat-
urday night March IA.
The leading feature of the evening
was a prize waltz and the judges de-
veloped a large amount of gray hair
in trying to pick winners from the
many excellent dancers on the floor.
One of the judges said afterward that
he wished there had been a dozen first
prizes, for he could have got rid Of
them all without any trouble. The
final decision was as follows: First
prize, Mr.. Elliott, Miss Roe; second
prize, Mr. Coyle Miss Colfield.
The gentleman's first prize was a
very fancy coat hanger and the lady's
first prize was an elegant opera bag,
both the handiwork of Lady Rowena.
Horns orchestra furnished the music
and very enjoyable evening was
spent by all. Better come out and see
what is going on, for Lady Rowena
has a surprise in store and it's about
due.
Los Angeles homestead intends to
retain it's time-honored social leader
ship and if it keeps up the present pace
is due for walkaway. Remember, this
is the homestead where the honey"
feeling prevails.
