of meeting Major MacKelvie and were
most agreeably surprised to find him

is regrettable to iay that too often
shoulder strap or insignia OF military
authority sours the milk OF human
kindness in the individual who wears
it, and that was shamefully noticeable
in the democratic army that recently
was assembled in this country. The
badge of authority seemed to swell the
head of the wearer, he shrank from
contact with the common herd wheth-
er civilian or military, was austere,
frigid chilly and unapproachable. 1t
was different with Major Mackelvie.
He is a pleasant, genial. companion
able gentleman, and loses none OF his
dignity nor influence with the men
who serve under him by being kind,
considerable and one Of the fellows

the initiation Of ten new members in
the lodge at that place. putting on the

the reputation for hospitality that old

Odd Fellows treated the visitors to
such a banquet as they have rarely
partaken of, which was supplied by
the Kings Daughters. The LOOMS
lodge is the pioneer organization of
that order in the county, being the
first lodge that was ever instituted.
Loomis was a flourishing camp when
that ceremony took place. and it had
a very large membership. We believe
from personal observation that the
Influence of that order upon number
of members worked marked change

in them the principle Of doing unto
