a very unusual circumstance
for them. All expressed them
selves as having enjoyed the
meeting very much, and tho't
more sociables of the kind
would be a benefit to the or
ders.

Two Memorials

A few weeks ago there was
completed in an eastern city a
monument which q rich man
had caused to be erected in
honor of his dead son. 1t is a
splendid thing-of its kind.
People who appreciate and UNI
derstand art have praised it,
and it will doubtless be select
ed by some enterprising person
for representation upon a pic
ture post card. The cost Of
this monument was mary
thousands of dollars. Here in
Chicago there has just been
opened a hotel where anyone
may secure a bath and a nights
lodging for 5 cents. This no.
tel was established by Charie s
e. Dawes as a memorial for his
son, Rufus Fearing Dawes.
Will it take you long to decide
which of these memorial would
receive the approval of Jesus
If He were on earth today?-

The K. L. of s., held one Of
the best meetings last Saturday
night they have had for many
months. The hall was well fill
ed and many had to stand dur
ing the program, which was
the leading feature Of the even
ing. This one act play was
given by eight Of our members
and they sure did Justice to
themselves, and all present were
sorry their play was not longer
as it was something entirely
new in the order. This order
intends to have something new
each meeting from this time on.
Three recitations we're also Civ.
en- by Miss Riley and Miss Ball,
and piano solo by Mrs. Hazel
Kinny, whish was splendid as
were the recitations. This or
der decided by q unanimous
vote last Saturday night to dis
continue the public dance in
the future. This order had on
Dec. 31st, 434 benefit members
in good standing, and s. social
members, and after some very
good talks on the dance quest
ion, most all members thought
this order was strong enough
to get along without opening
the lodge doors to the public
any more, for dancing. The
writer is fully convinced that
this was q move in the right
direction in this order. At the
future meetings no one will be
admitted only members, or
members Of families that belong
Public Take Notice.
A committee was appointed
to arrange for the social part
of the meeting to be held Jan.
18th, this committee will sure
have something very interest
ing. At the next meeting /
would kindly ask all members
to attend this meeting, as all
prizes will be given out by Dep
uty Orme, to members who have
earned them. One member will
receive prizes to the value Of
near $40, which she has earned
during the last quarter Of 1918.
This order here IN Mo. Valley
is in q splendid condition, AZ
benefit members have been I'D.
