From the Record:
Last week Wednesday evening, the
M. B. A. held regular session, and at
the close the doors were opened and
many invited guests were admitted.
The feature of the evening was a re-
ception for P. T. Casserly and wife
and John Dolan and wife-the former
and latter being stalwart members of
the order. A nice literary program
was given in which President Little
gave a fine original introduction in
poetry, sang several songs and made
himself generally useful. The O'Con-
nor sisters and the Little sisters added
to the program in songs, and Mrs. Still
read a comical selection. Gifts
from the lodge were then presented
to the guests of honor, with best
wishes. Then followed supper, served
by the sisters of the lodge, and there
was plenty of good things for all. Fred
Hiltz helped the joyful proceedings
