CORONER WILL JAMS,


lent general standing of the lodge is
to a pronounced degree owing to the
individual efforts of Mr.. Williams, who
joined the order less than two years
ago and at once began bringing in
new members, who composed the larg-
est class which so far has entered
Marathon lodge. But he didn't stop
there and has followed the custom
ever since.
He further originated and installed
the unique electric system which prob
ably is unequaled in any Knights of
Pythias hall anywhere and which has
excited the admiration of the supreme
chancellor of the order as we'll as
every visitor who has entered the
castle hall. Hundreds of colored cleo
trio lights arranged in figures en-
blematic of the order cover the CELL
ing, which produce a splendid effect
during the ceremonies, the complement
to the whole being a large and beau
tiful American flag composed of small
electric globes of red, white and blue.
Most of the boys" think that Mr..
Williams will return with but few
ideas better than those he has already
demonstrated

Guiding the unofficial position of keep

order the expensive paraphernalia used
in initiatory ceremonies and looking
after numerous matters pertaining to
the proper putting on oe the work of

FRATERNAL
BROTHERHOOD

The meeting of Hermosa
lodge, No. 80, September
a .GASs4.- bespoke a return of the
S old-time enthusiasm and
SE - zeal for which that lodge
S8hRSIsS is noted. The city cam
k1'tl&@sES paign rouses no fear in the
heart of the lodge that
leads the membership roll. The banner
is planted there to stay. Fifteen initi-
atoms looked good to the visiting Of
ficers, and the promise of doubling that
number on a future occasion creates
curiosity.
The publicity meeting of Pico lodge,
No. ISL, drew out a good attendance,
and the speakers of the evening. Emma
r, Neidig, H. V. Davis and w. 5.
Montgomery, received the most courte-
Gus attention possible while they dwelt
upon the merits of the order, the pur-
pose and intention of the campaign.
A number of applications were received
as the result of the meeting, and many
more have promised to send in their
names for membership.
Nordhoff has fallen in line with
Fraternal Brotherhood lodge. The
charter list was secured by L. M. APP
pleby and the lodge was instituted by
Sdpreme Vice President Emma r. Nei-
The new lodge is heartily welcomed to
the growing family, and its growth is
assured because it is in a good T. F. B.
location.
The Santa Monica lodge, No. 1873, is
feeling the rejuvenating influence of
T. f. B. enthusiasm. The cooling eff
feet of the sea breezes is a stimulus to
energy and of course T. F. B. people
are not immune, as the twenty new
members can testify. More good re-
ports are promised by 1. G. Bachelor
who has the situation well in hand both
here and in Sawtelle.
The annual outing of the escort team
of Los Angeles lodge, No. l, will occur
today. It will be trip to Catalina,
and every member of the team promises
to be on hand with a capacity for en-
joying the entertainment to the fullest.
AS a testimonial of the harmony ex
listing between the escort teams of Her
mosa lodge, No. 80, and Los Angeles
lodge, No. /, the banquet and dancing
party in Maple hall of the Home Office
building last Friday evening, with Her
mosa as hostess, certainly was an en-
joyable affair All present hope for
many repetitions of the pleasant oc-
casion. No. makes as good a hostess
as 1t does a guest.
R. S. Whitesell, the popular caterer
of La Grande lodge, entertained the
officers of the lodge last Thursday night
at his home, 1856 Romeo place. Four
