ANGLIN LODGE. NO. 300. |. 0. o. +.

| Another lodge Of Odd Fellows was
added to the list of lodges now exist
ing in this county Saturday night,
when Anglin Lodge, No 300, was in
stitnted with the usual interesting GER
emonies, running tie totals for the
county up to nine. 1t was only few
years ago that the first lodge was or
ganized, old No. 1856, at Loomis, and
members OF the mother lodge have
since lent hand in the organization
of nearly all the other lodges now in
existence at different points in the
county. l4oomis initiated the good
work. and was followed by Chesaw,
| TWisp, Conconully, Brewster, Oroyille
Okanogan, Riverside, and now Anglin,
almost in the order named. The for
nation of Anglin, No. 300. drew out
delegations from Oroville. Riverside
and l.oomis with a sprinkling of mem-
bers from other lodges. Oroville sent
large delegation on the long ride,
but the labor of love repaid all who
made the trip. The party left here
early Saturday morning. and did not
arrive at their destination until late
in the afternoon, whore those at a
distance who were to take part i'll the
ceremonies had already gathered. The
good people of Anglin, interested in
the organization of the lodge extend
ed the visitors a hearty welcome, and
treated them with generous hospital
ity. The work of initiating new mem-
bers, who were taken through all the
degrees, and the installation of officers
was performed by teams made up
from visiting brehtern, and the pro-
CeedingS continued on until daylight
the next morning. The representa-
rives from this place did not reach
home until abuot & o'clock Sunday
evening.
Angln Lodge, No. 300 starts out
with a live, enthusiastic charter MEM
oership of some % or 26. There were
dozen old members residing in the
neighborhood, responsible for the
movement that eliminated in the or
gani2ation of the lodge, and II new
members were taken in by initiation.
