may be doubled again by the cost OF

been exclusively described by DR.. T.
Carr. an English antiquarian. He
claims that the origin of the swastika
dates back to pref Christian days. In

it was originally the symbol Of polar

ancient and widely distributed symbol
that had ever existed. 1t has been

MOOSE have SWELL
SOCIAL function
FIRST EVENT OF THE KIND
GIVEN IN NEW CLUB ROOMS
AND HALL.
0ve:' Hundred Couples Were Present
for Gala Occasion, Which Will Ling
er in Memories Of All.

Bismarck lodge, Loyal Order of
Moose, never does anything by halves.
Last night q social function was Civ.
en- by the lodge to their members and
ladies. It was the first event Of its
kind given since this order has oc-
cupied its new hall and club rooms
on West Main street.
Fully 100 couples were present to
make up the merriment of the occa.
sion and as the evening progressed
it was plainly evident that the Moose
motto, "As We journey through life,
let us live by the way" was ever in
mind.
The hall was deliberately decorated
with red and white bunting, emble-
matte colors of the order, and there
was a profusion of red and white car
nations in evidence worn by the gay
ladies and gentlemen. Everyone pres
ent spoke highly of the elegant APP
pointments of the lodge and what an
ideal place it was for just such func-
lions.
Dancing continued until midnight,
when the entire party assembled at
the dining room of the Grand Pacific
hotelf where the tables were deco
rated with ferns and carnations. A
sumptuous seven-course banquet was
served containing an abundance of
choice viands for which the cuisine
of the Grand Pacific has long been
famous. The spacious dining room
was decorated with colors of the or
der, and near the entrance was
draped a large flag
After the banquet the party re-
turned to the hall and the dancing
was continued until the small hours
of the morning. The committees
which had this splendid event in hand
were highly commended for the sue.
cess of this Moose party, and the
members expressed an earnest desire
that the lodge arrange similar events
more often.
McDonald's fiv-piece orchestra sup.
piled the music for the occasion and
the musicians found but few idle mo.
ments on their hands.
