Wow: What Time.
When Orak temple gets its special

things doing among the local Masons.
This will not be made the occasion for
installing a large class. that will come
later. but it will be made the occasion
for a big jollifcation.
The date Of the banquet has not yet
been set, but it will be fixed as soon
as some definite information is re-
ceived as to when the courier from the
imperial potentate may be expected.
Caterers from Chicago will be hired
and told to go ahead. There will be no
| thought of the expense and the best
t,sat the land affords will be pro-
vided.
DR.. H. E. Sharrer has just returned
from Evansville, where he attended g
similar function. and the Hammond
boys viii find he has great fund of in
/ formation when they are trying to de-
! eide just what will be done.
| 1t is hoped that a good impression
will be made in the northern Indiana
/ Shriners, so that the initiation of the
/ 1O1 class next fall will be ever
| greater success than that of last year
