been larger, but we are pleased to

Christianity, but causes over which
she has no control. While in the city

MASONIC NOTES.
Chips From the Quarry.

The peculiar coincidence this year
with the grand master was that he
began his official visit last year in
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Monday; this
year in Cedar Rapids also On q Mon
day evening that we met with Mt.
Olive, No. II. Here we met larged
body Of master Masons than on our
former visit. We held very splendid
and instructive meeting. "'Twas
midnight on Mt. Olives brow" ere we
went to refreshments. Then we re-
freshed for one hour on oysters,
crackers, coffee, ice cream and cake.
P. G. M. w. H. Milligan drove the
G. M. home for a morning sleep at
his magnificent county home. Next
morning / enjoyed myself looking at
his fine chickens, the Buttercups,
which had won him several silver
cups and first prizes at the poultry
shows already held, and he had just
entered some in the Cedar Rapids
show, just opened that day. Well, l
must stop talking about chickens.
What dc they know about Masonry
On Tuesday went up to, visit the
great Iowa Masonic library, the fin
est and largest Masonic library in the
world, but as the building was tenn
porarily closed while undergoing
some repairs and moving to the new
addition recently completed. Bro.
Robinson is W. M. and they are add
ing new material to their temple.
They have purchased corner lot and
are now meeting in the second story
of that building. Our next visit was
with Eureka, No. 20, Marshalltown.
Here we met an enthusiastic bunch Of
twenty-one master Masons, live, &C
tive and bright, with our grand re-
viewer as w. M. We held very in
teresting meeting and found few
doubling the advisability of living up
to the landmarks and regulations.
Perhaps much light and some logic
was given why we should not deviate
from them. At o'clock we marched
in a body to Bro. Calum Wheeler's
residence, where long table was
ladened to it's utmost capacity with
everything that man could wish for
in the way of eatables, chickens, chit
terlings and pork meats, with cram
berry jelly, two kinds of pie, coffee,
cake and the other trimmings that go
to make a delicious banquet. Eureka
has a beautiful lodge hall, we'll ar
ranged. John A. Spencer, the cement
contractor of Grjnnell, an enthusiast
tic Mason, was present. The next
morning he accompanied me to Ma
son City, where we organized and set
up a new Masonic lodge, also P. G..
M. I. L. Brown and P G. S. W. Albert
Walker came to Mason City on later
train. Thus our old, ancient and hon.
orable order is extending her lodges
in north central Iowa. Question: Who
is a Mason? Question: What is Ma
sorry?

Dou't Let Your Baby UPSET Your
Household.

In the November Woman's Home
Companion Dr.. Roger II. bennett, a
well-known New York expert on the
care Of children, writes the first of a
new series Of talks to mothers. This
first article is entitled "Baby's Sched-
ule' and presents the details of an
orderly baby's daily life. On the gen
eral subject of the Importance OF
making a baby live up TO a schedule
Doctor bennett says:
"Can you imagine a railroad run
without q timetable? We, a proper
system with a definite schedule IS al
most as necessary in the household
where a baby is to be brought up, as
it is in railroading or any other bust
ness. if the best results are to be OBJ
tanned. 1t is far less work to nave a
time for everything, and 1t is not
difficult TO have everything come on
time.
I'm many instances [ nave found
that all that it was necessary TO DO 10
change a bad baby to a good baby was
| to s@traighten out his schedule. A baby
who eats whenever he wants through
out the night not only robs his moth
er OF sleep but is fretful during the
day. IT is astonishing TO see now one
! small infant may upset a household.
