ed at $3.50. After the usual form of
opening the tellers we're announced.
They were admitted and read the re-

a second ballot must be cast. The
members proceeded to vote again, and

count the ballots. The business of the
right Worthy Grand Temple was re-

of the members of the Grand Temple,
the Grand Princess was moved to

so doing hat she did not feel that
she could take the money from the
treasury, but thanked Sister Floyd,
who made the motion and the mem

ness to her. Nine. Sara Lee Hammett

then brought in and pr esented with
a magnificent box of silk hose, the
gift of the Kansas City delegation, as
a token of their appreciation for her.
Miss Lewis found W ords inadequate
to express her gratefulness to her

merit any consideration from them she
would try to surpass what she had
done in the future.
