Takes Third Degree of Masonry.

Masonic hall presented q brilliant
scene last Wednesday night, the oc-
casion being the init alton Of Judge E.
A. Walters, into the third degree.
Every member Of the local lodge was
out and the lodges OF neighboring
towns were represented by heavy de-
legations.
Wendell lodge was represented by
Jas. C. Blair, W. NJ. and seven mem
bers; Cooling, by W. F. Wood W. NJ.
and eight members; Jerome, by Paul
r. Kartzke and eleven members; how
ever, one of the Jerome rigs broke
down on the way and did not arrive I;
Haley and other towns had one or
more members present.
After the regular ceremonies were
over, a light lunch and smoker were
enjoyed. 1t was dur ing the smoker
perion that informal speeches held
sway and frequent roars of merriment
gave evidence that the speeches were not
weighted too heavily with wisdom but
were garnished literally with wit and
humor. 1t was frequently remarked
that this feature Of the occasion was
superb.
In noting the states that claimed the
nativity of the individual members
present it was observed that nearly
every state in the union was repre-
scented.
On the whole, the affair was one of
the most successful ever witnessed by
the Shoshone lodge, and it bears evil
dence of the esteem and regard with
which Judge Walters is held by the
Masonic members OF his district.
