Everything is now in readiness for
the Thanksgiving celebration by Con-
60 RiverTabernacle, with every lodge
and church in Mason county, win all
the good men and women as her
guests. The committee is greatly
elated over the good news that great
crowd from the county will come to
spend the day with them at oddfel-
lows Hall, that they may get the
wholesome substance for the physical
man from the we'll supplied table on
the second floor of the building. Then
get the mental man satisfied when the
program starts on the third floor Of
the same building. They have re-
ceived assurance from practically ev-
cry lodge in Maysville that they are
not only going to have their presiding
officer to appear on the afternoon
program but the lodge members will
be out in full and show their last
ing appreciation for the noble and
worthy cause. AS every one feels that
1t is commendable and happy
thought to have emaDated from the
heart and fertile brains Of the good
women of Congo River Tabernacle,
the suggestion and thought, to COM
bine all the lodges Of this city in q
fitting Thanksgiving day celebration,
could come at no better time, when
each and all can together send up
supplications to the great white throne
to the God of all, that his blessings
may come to our common country and
our struggling people.
Somehow patriotism, fraternity and
hospitality seem closely allied in
these piping times of mankind's woes,
as all mean loyalty, one to our coun-
try and flag amids its sacred memoir
les we see her coming into her own
with her mighty hand holding the
torch that must finally light the path
way Of the world to universal liberty
and democracy. In the other owe a
duty and loyalty to our fellowman,
our homes, and they that walk at our
side in fact to all. who are doing their
full share in filling the world with
human kindness. who are standing
bravely by the great men and noble
women because they are right, and
all men in the right are brothers
Fortunately for the fraternal lodges
Of today they are coming into broad
err and more human sort Of fraterniz-
ing, whose chief cry and support con-
sist not in mysteries, forms and cere-
monies only, but in service and kind
ness. So this faithful band Of women
are urging each and all to come at II
o'clock a. m. and join in their relig-
ious services where you are free to
give an open expression of your relig-
ion, and where no thoughtless, care
less or unkind word can be spoken.
At $40 o'clock p. m. the fraternal
exercises will take place and consist
Of songs and addresses from the head
officers Of each lodge In the city who
have been selected because they en-
10y the happy distinction Of being the
presiding officers Of their respective
lodges. They each and all stand fol
the good and noble acts Of charity ant
benevolence that have 90 much to d.
with the growth and prosperity o.
lodge of today. These men and wo
men are among our most prosperous
and enterprising cluzens.
