tary H. " Davis was a
delighted participant in the
pleasures of the evening. and Is loud
in his praises of the hospitality OF
No. SIG.
Los Angeles lodge, No. 1, intends in
creasing its escort team to twenty-four
members for the drills during the sum
mer months. The efficient work of this
team has caused its fame to travel be-
fore 1t.
Home lodge, No. 600, held meeting
Of more than passing interest on May
IL in Oak hall of the Home Office build
ing Supreme President James A. Fo-
shay was the guest of the evening, and
offered as his number on the program
words of encouragement and commend

An excellent program, accompanied
by an enthusiastic fraternal feeling,
marked the meeting of East Los Ange-
les lodge, No. IL, on May IL. Supreme
President James A. Foshay was warm
ly received as the guest of the evening
and gave an excellent talk to the 100
members present.
The Los Angeles lodges are largely
interested in the competitive drill which
will take place in Shrine auditorium on
May 20. The Fraternal Brotherhood
people will be out in force to encourage
their company that has never lowered
its colors to a company of an other
order. Encouragement and enthusiasm
help the boys to win.
From the columns of the Seattle Post
Intelligencer we learn that the Frater-
nal Brotherhood people of Northwest
ern Washington have secured Satur-
day, July II, as their day at the Alaska
Yukon Pacific exposition. The EXPOSE
ton on that day will be entirely under
their management, and special attrac-
lions are being arranged for the occa-
sion. The members of Washington are
ever alive to the interests of the Fra
ternal Brotherhood, and this is but one
of the many occasions they make use OF
for advertising the society.
Southside lodge, No. GA, was the re-
cipient of an encouraging visit from
Supreme President James A. Foshay
on the evening of May 13. This new
lodge is located in a growing section of
the city, as its name would indicate,
and bids fair to become one of the
strongest lodges in this jurisdiction.
The attendance was excellent consider
ing its infancy, its charter not yet is
sued, and thirteen members signed
Fraternity lodge No. 317, 7. F. B.,
will give a hard lines social Thursday
evening, May 81, in their lodge room,
1926 West Washington street. An inter-
esting program will be rendered, fol-
lowed by dancing and refreshments. A
jolly good time is ANTICIPATED.
La Grande lodge, No. 9, had large
attendance Friday night. Many visit
ing members were present, anticipating
witnessing the second degree, but oW-
ing to the absence of several of the
team on account of sickness, ETC., the
work was postponed indefinitely, but
perhaps will be put on at an early
date. There were many short but in
teresting talks offered for the good or
the order. There are plans under way
for q membership contest, and when 1t
is launched you will know that some
thing has started, for No. 8 doesn't DO
things by halves, but generally gets IN
on the ground and accomplishes what
II goes after. After adjournment or
lodge there were many who engaged in
the game of whist. Next Friday night,
May %, there will be short form bust
ness meeting, to be followed by a card
contest at high five. There will be sew
eral valuable and appropriate prizes
given to the winners. and the poor
PLAYERS Cor boobys) will not be forgot
ten Now don't forget ladies night,
for on Friday night, May 80, there Will
certainly be something doing; for on
that night there will be a genuine jury
trial and breach of promise marriage.
Just think that Judge Albert Lee
Stephens will be the presiding judge,
and you know what that means, that
the woman in the case will get the
worst of it, for he is just married. No
one knows how much (mush) FUN they
miss by not belonging to the stag
lodge. for No. 9 is the only lodge of its
kind in Los Angeles. With due respect
to other organizations of the city, 1t is
safe to say that the stag lodge, No; 8,
is the most popular lodge of its KIND IN
the city and when one has the privi-
lege of attending one of their functions
he can deem 1t quite an honor for IL
does not often come and is eagerly
sought for.
