/ write now and avoid delay in prepa-
/ ration.

that all rules of order were dispensed
with and the men discussed impor-
tant measures likely to come up in
the Grand Lodge. A committee on
the Pythian Temple project through
its chairman, Dr. FOrde, of Harmony
Lodge, made a fine rerOrt which was
adopted by the delegates. Knight
