knights Of Pythias.

Tupelo lodge No. 1873 met last
Monday night with a large at
tendance. The rank of Knight
was conferred on Esquire Filgo
in an impressive manner, and he
is now a full fedged Knight.
We again wish to thank Bro.
Brunette for his very valuable
assistance in exemplifying the
work, and can recommend him
as being thoroughly familiar
with Pythianism.
On Wednesday evening at a
call meeting Esquire Menzies
was duly proven in the Chivalric
rank of Knight, and he is now
entitled to wear the spurs.
The Button Busters initiated
Bro. A. G. Brown in the myster
les of this grand and noble order.
There will be a special meeting
Friday night for the purpose of
comforting the Button Buster de-
gree on Bro. Smith. A full at
tendance is requested and will
doubtless be in attendance.
The time for suspending BROTH
ers who have failed to pay their
dues is exceedingly short. and if
you are behind do not be sur
prisel at being notified of your
suspension. Especially do we
call attention to those brothers
who are carrying insurance. On
next Monday night the rank Of
Page will be conferred on Mr..
John Raines and possibly one
other. Come out to the new
castle hall and see what we are
doing. It will do all Of US lots Of
good. Pythian.
