A Pleasant Time
Concordia Lodge No. 181, F. l.
Of A, held a regular meeting and
smoker" last night, and consider
ing the weather the attendance was
large. The routine work being dis
posed Of, the degree team initiated
c. L. Blalock into the mysteries Of
the order. This work is said to be
very beautiful and Impressive. State
Manager y. I. Gottlieb being present
was called upon for talk on the
good Of the order. After some per-
tinent remarks. he exemplifed the
unwritten work, and spoke of a new
policy now being issued by the F. l.
OF A, which has all the advantages
Of the old line contract but is very
much cheaper. Talks by a. z. Bur

were INDUCED in, which were enjoy
ed almost as much as the bountiful
spread" that followed. We under
stand that Concordia lodge intends
having something doing at every
meeting, and those who don't attend
will surely miss a good time.
