WESTERN FRATERNAL
ASSOCIATION

The blues and the "reds" are MAX
ing it interesting for each other in the
membership contest that Is being con-
Quoted by the lodge at Huntington
Beach. So much interest is being man
ifested in the race for members that
it is a case of dodge with friends of
members who do not belong to the as
sociation to keep from being carried
bodily to the physician for examina-
ton. Monday night the entertainment
presented at conclusion of the lodge
by the opposing sides was worth going
miles to witness. Though young, the
association has the approval of many
of the local people, and No. is meet
ing with uncommon success.
Home lodge No. initiated large
class of candidates Friday night in
Pico hall. This lodge has an excep-
tionally lively set OF members, who
take pride and interest in the order.
The lodge will give a social dance and
entertainment Friday night. The wom-
en- are the leading factors of the lodge
and are always found at the front
when 1t comes to entertaining. Those
most active and on the lookout for the
pleasure and interest of others are
Misses Jean Holmes and Jessie H. Mac
Donald and Mrs. Susan B. Cook.
The degree team of the Stag lodge
were up to their tricks again Thurs
day night, when several candidates
were given the second" degree. Any
one doubling the ability of this team.
composed mostly of medical students,
of putting on the work, should make
it a point to become a member of
this particular lodge, and might pos
sibly change their minds.
Several lodges will soon be started
in the vicinity Of Los Angeles. The
order is progressing rapidly and taking
in new territory.

DAUGHTERS OF VETERANS

At their last meeting the Daughters
of Veterans initiated eight new men,
bers besides obligating two old COM
rades. Although only organized last
May, the tent has now a membership of
about sixty, besides a number of old
comrades and Sons of Veterans who
have been obligated as honorary mem
bers.
This is a, new patriotic order for Los
Angeles and bids fair to become one of
it's strongest and best. The members
are very enthusiastic workers and have
the hearty cooperation of the veterans
and sons. They have already done con-
siderable relief work, besides attending
many funerals and furnishing music
and flowers where none have been pro-
vided, which has been greatly appre-
ciated. While they have been kept
pretty busy with charitable work they
do not forget their social duties, and
in this line will give an open meeting
Saturday night, November Z, at Mann
moth hall No. 1, 5171a South Broadway
tor which everyone is cordially invited.
The regular meetings are the first and
third Saturdays of each month.
