ORDER OF CALANTHE HOLDS
CELEBRATION AT GREEN
WOOD PARK.

One of the most pleasing features
Of the week in connection with the
meeting of the Grand Lodge X. of P.'s
and Grand Court of Calanthe was the
entertainment given at Greenwood
Park Tuesday afternoon by the Grand
Courts. The exercises were planned
to begin at o'clock, but owing to
pressing business in the morning ses-
sion of the ladies' department and
the necessity of short evening ses-
sion in the mems department, the ex-
ercises were deefrred to a later hour
The drill by Uniform Rank No. 5,
of East Nashville, took place ON
scheduled time; the attendance was
not large at o'clock, but those who
were present enjoyed the exercises
very much. The Uniform Ranks un-
der the generalship of Captain Shelby,
were given lengthy applause for their
aptitude in executing orders. The ex-
ercises of the day consisted of the
following program:
Prayer, Rev. G. H. Clark; quartet,
c. L. Harwell and others; introduc.
tory remarks, Rev. P. Taylor; well
come on behalf of Courts, Mrs. Mag
gle Lewis; solo, Mrs. Gertrude John
son; welcome on behalf of citizens,
Hon. A. N. Johnson; solo, Mrs. ]. D.
Bushell; welcome On behalf of juve-
niles, Miss Ruth Upshaw; instrument
tai solo, Miss Rosa Bell Jennings;
response to be appointed by G. w. c.
The program committee, Mrs. NJ.
Lewis and Miss A. R. Dunlap, de-
serves much credit for the excellent
program arranged.
The entertainment committee, Mrs.
Alice Douglass, chairman; Miss N. e.
Perkins, secretary, had everything
well in hand hand for the entertain
ment of the visiting delegates. Mrs.
Douglass is too well known in this
city to need any introduction and to
say that she had charge Of the en-
tertainment is to say that it was car

business was taken up and dispensed

Alexander of Arkansas, and Natonal
Grand Auditor McConico were in at
tendance at the meeting. 1t was
quite a stir when the Grand Lodge
first assembled, owing to a rumor
that gained circulation that the Mem
phis delegation had planned to take
all the offices; the election, however,
proved to be more talk than fact, as
was evidenced by the officers that
were elected.
Harmony prevailed throughout the
session, and the delegation seemed to
be favorably impressed. The officers
made their reports in detail. 1t was
clearly seen that general satisfaction
prevailed. The meeting adjourned
