ton of Having New Temple.

An important meeting -of represen-
tatives OF Acca Temple. Ancient and
Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine, from
all sections of the State, will be held
here on May l4th for the purpose of
determining the question OF building a
new temple in this city. The matter
has been discussed for some time, and
| the need of a larger building has long
| since been felt The entire Acca TEN
| pie membership in the State has grown
| TO 1900, and the present building is
inadequate. There is talk of erecting
q ten-story office building somewhere

top floor to be devoted exclusively TO
Ethe purposes OF the temple. Though
| no definite action has been taken. sew
teral sites arc under discussion in Ma
fFonic circles. Some of the local mem-
Pliers favor a location near Ninth and
EBroad Streets.
{ If the shrners decide they really
want new temple, they will have IT,
fas they usually accomplish pretty near
Ky everything they undertake.
