WAR EMERGENCY APRIL 2.
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS VISIT.
HALEY LODGE

Last Saturday quite a number of
the members of Delos Lodge No. IS.
Knights of Pythias, visited their neigh
boring Lodge, Ben Hur No. 30, of
HALEY. The occasion being the official
annual visit Of Grand Chancellor Frank
f. Smith of the Grand Domain of Idaho
who made his official visit to Delos
Lodge No. % on last Thursday evening
The HALEY lodge had a class of six
excellent candidates, and as a very
friendly and fraternal spirit exists be-
tween the lodges of the two towns, the
Haley lodge extended an invitation to
confer the work for them, and make
the visit of the Grand Chancellor one
long to be remembered. Thirteen mem
bers of the initiatory team of Delos
Lodge No. 2s made the trip and they
have but the highest words of praise
for the cordiality of their Haley breth-
rem, and the entertainment accorded
them. After arriving in the city and
having lunch at the Hotel Hiawatha,
the HALEY lodge furnished them with
big bob-sled. and all of them, to-
tured forth over four feet of well pack
ed snow to the HALEY Hot Springs
where they enjoyed a plunge in the
natural hot water We could truthfully
say then, that we had a good clean
bunch of fellows from Shoshone.
The lodge work of the evening was
turned over to the Initiatory Team
from Shoshone, and the Rank of
knight was conferred upon the six
candidates in waiting. and who proved
to be excellent material and the kind
expect to progress and forge ahead.
The lodge in HALEY has done excep-
tionally well this past year. and show |
that they are among the live ones.
The Initiatory Team of Delos Lodge
No 2S. of Shoshone. is the banner |
team in this district, this being the 9Th |
District of the Grand Domain of Idaho.
They have one silver loving cup given |
them by the District for having won
the competitive work three years in
succession, and which belongs to them
They have another low
ing cup which they have to win twice
more before it is theirs for good. The
Convention this year is to be held in
Twin Falls, Idaho, on April 18th, and
the boys have every hope or again
bringing home the bacon. Two years
ago they lost their 'honors TO the
Mountain Home lodge. but having won
four out of five years they feel justly
proud in saying I'VE are the Banner
ream of the District No. g." There
ire seven active lodges in this Dist
.rict, and winning the honors four
lines out of five speaks well for our
ocaI boys.
Having put on their annual minstrel
how just a little over month ago,
he Shoshone boys took their music
nd best and choicest jokes with them,
nd between times entertained the :
Iailey brethren, just to show them
hat they could entertain as well as
-in silver cups at conventions.
The entire expense of the trip was
orne by the HALEY lodge, and the
hoshone boys all say that. the HALEY
elIows rae the best entertainers on a
arth and are always glad Of the op- a
ortunity to visit the city in the noun r
aims for they know they are assured e
{ a royal good time, for the HALEY Il
eople have the reputation Of being e
mong the most hospitable in the t,
ountry. L
