and their friends at a stocking social. Mrs Henderson, a visiting sister opened the program with an excellent talk on the principles of our order, and if we each followed her expressed sentiments there would be no doubt of our attaining the highest proficiency in farternal unity of spirit and pur- pose to help one another.
 The next number was a vocal selec- tion sung in a pleasing manner by Miss Jennie Stevens Mrs. Howard CIaflin contributed to humorous rad ings, which were well received. Miss Louise Hill then favored us with a well rendered instrumental piece.
 Mrs. AleXanders two songs Tn the Garden of My Heart" and The Ro- sary," were much applauded. Mrs. Alexander has a very beautiful so- prano voice and we enjoyed her sing ing immensely. The musical part of the program closed with instrumental selections by MT Raoul Grijoulva, a musician, of very exceptional ability. His numbers were all splendid
 The last part of the program was guessing contest and excited con- siderable amusement, Miss Nellie Trott securing the first prize for the ladies and MT Ira Stalmaker for the gentlemen. Following this the ladies served punch.
 The committee are certainly to be congratulated upon the novelty and excellence of their entertainment, and the large attendance made the even ing a fine success not only in a monetary way but brought several old members out whom we have not seen lately and many friends whom we hope soon to make members of our order. We expect to have several gathering of a social character this winter similar to this one, and we want all the members to assist in making them as we'll enjoyed as the last. Out of town members are al ways welcome to all our meetings

LOST THEIR APPETITE FOR
 PRUNES

It is one of the saddest if not one of the most comforting, things in life, that when people have caught a glimpse of the best, the second best can never again content them. If they have once-be it only for q moment worn the best robe and sat down to the feast, they will never more really enjoy the husks of the far cauntry; even though the citizens of that coun- thy prepare the same with their most delicate arts and serve them up on gold plate.
 Unwise men do not consider this. and fools do not understand it. so that the former find out too late that their souls must be starved to death for lack of that better thing which they once so carelessly threw away; while the latter enjoy their husky diet in peace, unlnowing that there is any better things at all-ElIen Fowler

1 oval Order of Moose

The dance given by Phoenix Lodge 7OS Thursday evening was grand success. The floor was in fine condi tion and the music furnished by the Bcsse orchestra was excellent. These daces will be given every Thursday evening during the winter and We want every member of the order to invite their neighbors and friends to attend. Two prizes are given way to the lucky ladies every evening.
 At the regular meeting last Tues day night the Tubercular Sanitarium matter was taken up in earnest and a circular letter was ordered sent to every member of the order setting forth in detail the advantages tc Phoenix and the Salt River Valley of securing the location of the sani- tarium in the Salt River Valley We want every member to read these cir culars carefully and render all the aid possible to carry oEt the plans of the committee having the matter in charge. This question should be of great interest to every tax payer in Maricopa county and we trust that enough enterprising citizens of the county will get behind the movement to make it success. We all know that we have the climate and natural requisites to prove that this is the place for the sanitarium and what we need now is boosters.
 There was a large attendance at the meeting last Tuesday night and it was a pleasure to note that every member present took a deep interest in all matters brought up before the lodge. After the meeting was over every one enjoyed the free lunch fur nished by our Dictator, pr. Boido Some sort of an entertainment will be given every meeting night hereafter besides we will have something to eat after the meeting is over We want all members to come up and spend a pleasa meeting together.

Pays to Be Courteous

That it pays to be courteous is again proven. C. R BernetZke has just received A communication from John Brown Of Elsinore, California, enclosing a beautiful ring with the emblem of the Woodmen of the World engrossed upon it. including the Dove of Peace holding an olive branch. About a month ago Mr. Ber- netz<e met MT. Brown while sojourn- ing in this city, extended him little courtesy showing him over the city and introducing him to several friends and otherwise helping him to make his stay here most pleasant. For these kindnesses he sent this emblam- aticGl ring to MT. Rernetzke as a token of appreciate for the courte- Ous treatment. MT. Bernetzke says it has been his policy to extend cour- teOus treatment to every human be- ing, even book agents" and it pays in the end. He is the counsuI com mander of Phoenix Lodge, Woodman of the World.

Odd Fellow

Phoenix Lodge No. ?, certainly wai taken by surprise last meeting night The noble grand almost lost his speech when he saw that large bunch of visitors stumbled into the lodge hall from Tempe and Mesa. Of course, it is needless to say they read the news in Lodge Lore about Phoenix Lodge taking in considera ble new material and naturally they wanted to see some of the new tim Der and the way we put them through in the initiatory degree, Phoenix lodge certainly appreciates the visit which those more good than words can express. Come again." Tempe is the home of the Lillie Creasn and 1t must be said they are getting to be an enthusiastic bunch. They are planning to organize an encampment in the near future which will make a strong rival for Phoenix.
 Let us launch great let everyone win one" movement Be a strong booster for odd Fellowship and let our watchword be Every one win one" Brother J. w. Wagner of Hum boldt Lodge No. 274, Cincinnati, O., Is among the new corners. Judging by his talk he certainly has the right spirit of Odd Fellowship. Brother Shell has the contract of putting up business block in Florence and the lodge misses him greatly The first degree will be conferred at the next session, The Captain of the Guards desires all members of the fSrst de- gree at the hall this morning at 10 o'clock for practice, and don't feel blue.
 If times are hard and you feel ''blue" Think of the others worrying too: Just because your trials are many Don't think the rest of us haven't any. Life is made of smiles and tears Joys and sorrows mixed with tears. And though to us it seems one-sided, Trouble is pretty well divided.

perhaps John Prouty would come
around on Thanksgiving evening.

altogether thrre was not much pros

And So THANKSGIVING day came, and

Ruth set her teeth together hard and
tight.
So that was where John was going
for Thanksgiving-and she had been
up there taking tea-just as though
that girl didn't know that Aunt James
Prouty's was no place to go for tea,
and she down with rheumatic! Well,
she hoped he'd have a pleasant even
ing. As for that pie-and she looked
at It ruefully-she'd taken too much
pains with that to waste it on a lot
Of Overgrown boys and cider drinking
men. She'd give it to the pigs-thats
what she'd do with 1t. Nobody else
should eat It If John couldn't.
Then as she looked at the pastry that
had given her so much pleasure and
so much disappointment she said she'd
give it to old Ma'am Jefferson, down
the valley. She was living there alone,
lOnesome-like. and It would make her
Thanksgiving day happier to know
that somebody thought of her up there
on the hill.
So when The cider and apples were
brought and everybody was fixed cOzily
enough around the kitchen fire and in
the neat big square sitting room Ruth
stole out with the pie in her hands
folded in a white towel. and, tripping
lightly across the fields, she knocked
at the door Of the little cottage where
Ma'am jefferson lived alone. but re-
ceived no answer. The latchstring
was hanging out. She pulled 1t gently
to rattle the latch; but, still hearing no
sound from within. she pushed the door
open and entered. No one was there. |

said to herself. and she would be glad
to find some trace of loving thought
fulness when she returned.
Then Ruth wrote a little note, sad
from the feelings that oppressed her,
vet kindly from the wealth Of her own
kind heart. ana left 1t with the pie.
There's company up at our house"
the note said "and l can't wait until
you come back. aunty. but have put
