Columbia Commandery, No. 2, Knights
Templar, celebrated its fftieth anniver-
sary last Monday night, and in its cir
cular, No. Is just issued Commander
Underwood describes the affair, as fol-
lows:
THE fiftieth anniversary celebration is
now q matter of history, and another
very creditable affair goes into the record
of the commandery. All of the features
of the evening were interesting, on time,
and apparently very pleasing to the au-
dience, and all present seemed to enjoy
the evening to the full measure.
The commandery is under many obliga-
tions to all who assisted in making the
evening a success, but more especially
10 those that were not members of the
commandery-Miss Mary Cramer, Mrs.
George E. Hebbard, Miss Myrtle Began,
Lansburgh & Bro, Nathan Stein. 5. J.
Mayer. and Fl. NJ. Osborn, of the General
Film Company.
While the attendance was not as great
as the commander had anticipated, the
auditorium was comfortably filled, and
what the audience lacked in numbers
was overbalanced by enthusiasm, and the
commander was constantly congratulated
