The members of the Moose had
pleasant and profftable evening at
their hall and club rooms Thursday
night
Long before the hour for calling the
lodge to order. the club rooms were
filed with members, passing away the
time playing pool, or talking, reading
or listening to the music from the
superb graphophone. The Moose club
rooms are well situated and elegantly
furnished, and always afford the mem
bers an excellent place to go for rest
or amusement
At $50, Dictator Mershon called the
lodge to order and Secretary Stapp
read the roll and minutes. At least
sixty members were present The
lodge is a large one and the members
turn out well. as there is something
interesting at every meeting. The
regular business of the evening was
soon transacted and the special exer-
cises began
| The well drilled and finely equipped
| degree team took charge and carried
the exercises out without a hitch. The
principal event was unvei1ing the
| lodge emblem. a superb moose head.
which was mounted above the dicta-
| tors chair.
| This moose head is one of the finest
| Of its kind, and was specially prepared
/ for the Ocala lodge by a noted Can
adam taxidermist. The spread of the
horns is over yard, and the head
looks as lifelike tho the animal had
| pushed it's head thru the wall and was
as calmly surveying the deliverations
| of the fodge as it ever gazed out across
| a Canadian lake. The animal was kill
| ed in the depths of an immense forest,
and its lifeless eyes last night proba-
bly, stared at more human beings than
| its live ones saw during the whole
| course of its existence. The head is
well mounted and the members of the
lodge are justified in the pride they
/ feel in it. They greeted the unvailing
with sustained enthusiasm.
| Past Dictator Edwin Spencer pre-
scented the emblem to the lodge in an
appropriate address Mr.. Spencer Is an
elegant speaker and is never heard to
better advantage than in the lodge
room
| The exercises concluded, the lodge
passed from labor to refreshment. Gig
ars were handed around and while the
incense of the weed assembled to the
ceiling. interesting talks We're made
by various members. Secretary Stapp
gave an instructive history of the
grand lodge officers. Mr.. E. c. Sheri-
dan spoke feelingly and eloquently on
brotherly love. Short addresses were
made by Mr.. w E. Gober and other
members.
| Smoking and speaking over, the
members were summoned from the
ethical to partake of the substantial
A hardW orking and competent COM
mittee, consisting of Brethren Beall,
Marlowe and one or two others, had
connected two huge bowls of refresh
ing fruit punch and heaped two i'm
mense trays with slices Of toothsome
cake. There was enough and to spare,
/ and all enjoyed the collation..
The evening was enjoyable and in
structive in every way, and such eve
nings are often with the Moose. Any
young man who wants to join a live
and growing order and increase his
opportunities for pleasure as well as
winning fraternity can't do better
than join Lodge No. 699.
