Arbutus grange. Surry, entertained the
Pomona Friday, June 9, in its new home,
Of which 1t has every reason to Be proud.
After the regular business was over,
there was . solo by Sister Lena sperry, at
ter which came the address Of welcome by
Otis Carter. Bro. Norris l.. Heath re-
sponded in his usual pleasing manner.
The report OF oranges showed that the
usual amount OF interest is being taken In
the work OF the order, and that all are
thriving.
The topic: "Resoived that the prohibit
tory law 10 preferable to any law reguIat-
ing the sale OF intoxicating liquors." was
assigned to Bro. Frank Jeilison. As Bro.
JelIison now resides in the state OF Wash
ington, he kindly wrote an interesting
letter expressing his views upon the sub
iect. This letter was made doubly inter
esting by the fact that Mr.. Jellisen has
had opportunity to observe the workings
OF the liquor traffic in Washington, which
is entirely different from the State OF
Marie. After careful study and. obscrva-
ton, he Is convinced that we should re-
tain tuc t"thts -stAtu sihchuBtut W o1E
State constitution.
Further remarks along this line were
made by Brothers .sibley, Herrick, Bur
rili, Hale and Gross. All were in favor OF
absolute prohibition, with honest, fearless
officials to enforce the law.
The grange appropriated . sum OF
money for the field day expenses. The
field meeting will be held ct Bluehiil
mineral spring on Monday, Aug. IA.
After nne dinner had been enjoyed, the
grange again resumed work. A paper,
1.-THE value OF an attractive home in form
ing character in the young" was opened
by LAun Treworgy. Several members
spoke upon the subject. There was .
reading by Sister Treworgy; song, Lena
sperry; recitation, Matte urindle; reci-
tation, Sister psge, and quotations BY the
members.
