and the appreciation of most of the
best thinking men of the order, for
his conduct of affairs. Grand Sec'y
Geo. E. Bates was reelected, also
Grand Esquire P. H. Southall of Min
neapolis. The parade was purely
patriotic and showed the efforts of
the Antlers in various war activities,
also the record of the Daughters in

Lodge, Service Star Flags and uni
forms of men in war service were es-
pecially attractive. Several bands
