ODD FELLOWS AT OXFORD

About twenty members of Tulula
Lodge No. %, I. O. F., went to Ok
ford last night to assist the members
of the local lodge to initiate several
candidates into the mysteries of Odd
Fellowship. Dobbs' bus was engaged
for the occasion, carrying sixteen of
the boys, while several members went
in another auto.
The evening was pleasant and the
trip was made in good time and upon
arriving in Oxford the Ocala delega-
ton was warmly welcomed. Mr.. Jake
Brown invited the boys to be his
guests at the hotel for supper and
quite few accepted his hospitality,
but as the word had been mysterious
ly passed that a sumptuous spread
awaited the pleasure of the guests in
the lodge room, most of the Ocala
delegation journeyed thither post
haste. The ladies of Oxford had pre-
pared supper which for quality and
quantity battles description. Suffice
| it to say that the eats were well TAX
en- care of and large quantities of
fried chicken, cakes and pies myster-
iously disappeared under the gentle
ministrations of Joe Lamar and Hen
ry Stokes, ably assisted by Jake
Brown, M. M. Little and others.
After supper a few minutes were
spent socially and then the real work
Of the evening commenced. Three
candidates presented themselves and
the Ocala degree team conferred
upon them the first and second de-
grees. Mr.. Warnock, one of the Ok

but through the Intervention of sym
pathetic members who plead for
mercy, no fatalities resulted and the
work was put on smoothly and with

were made by Jake Brown, M. NJ
Little and others.
The return home was made about
1870 a. m. and the Ocala delegation
was loud in its praises of the hospi.

Our Evening Thought

It never pays to fret or frown,
When fortune seems our foe.
The better bred will push ahead
And strike the drawer blow.
For luck is work and those who shirk
Should not lament their doom,
But yield the play and clear the way
That better men have room.
