 be a handsome Moose pin. But this is not all that is afoot in the Moose lodge It was also determined at the Friday night meeting to hold a bsizaar. This will be held in the new home the lodge has purchased, and will be in the form of country store. The week from December l7 to 24 was determined upon, which was a wise move, since it is the week when more Christmas shopping will be done than at any other time, and the bazaar will give the opportunity for the purchase of gifts. Further plans of the committee which has this in charge will be annouced shortly, for the time before the open ing of the bazaar is limited. and the committee has already started the work of preparation.
