II has been practically decided that
the members of Korayb Temple. ID. O
X X, of Calumet, will not conduct a
ceremonial session at Alanistique In
connection with the reunion of the
Upper Peninsula Pythian League next
month. as had been planned some time
ago. After thorough consideration IL
seemed advisable 10 forego the pleas
ures OF trip Of this kind 10 Manis-
tique and 10 conduct large gathering
in Calumet or some of the other copper
country towns later in the summer.
There are several reasons for this ac-
ton, one of which is that all OF the
members Of the Dokay degree team
will be unable to attend and TO take
part in the session.
The session planned for the copper
country will prabably be held late in
July or early in August, and efforts
will be made TO secure a large bunch
of "tyros". BY holding the session
then it viii probably be possible to
conduct big parade as one of the
features Of the gathering.
The first and third rank degree
teams OF the Laurium lodge. No. 200
will attend the reunion and will par
ticipate I'm the contests held
