Mrs. A. N. Dobbs, of this city,
was elected as Conductress OF the
Grand Lodge of the Eastern Star at
the meeting held in New Orleans
last week. The office of Mrs. Dobbs
is only three stations under the
Grand Matron, which means that IN
three years Mrs. Dobbs will be at
the head Of the Grand Chapter OF
the state. Her aunt, Mrs. Workman,
of Covineton. was elected Grand
Matron last week, and it is unusual
that two members of the same
