ODD FELLOWS

Our meeting Tuesday evening cer- tainly demonstrated the progressive spirit of Odd Fellowship and nothing was left undone that would make the meeting interesting or be of benefit to those present.
 A record breaking crowd turned out to see the first degree exemplified- There were delegations from Mesa, Tempe and Chandler in attendance, bringing their candidates for this de- gree. The work was exemplified in a most impressive manner. The degree staff deserve much credit for their splendid work, and we want them to know it was appreciated to the fullest extent Several applications were acted upon, which means there will be plenty of work for September.
 We are glad to report Brother Albert Johnson is able to be back at work af- ter a months illness, and Brother Pepper is much improved. We heard from Grand Master Norris. that Brother Mahler was married in San Diego (Rebekahs will please take mo- tice) but we know you will soon for give and forget.
 We appreciated having the brothers from across the river with us during the evening These fraternal visits are very vital to the social side of our order and should be continued, as much good IS QGTlNSQ lTOAH lnc1IAs DOlH in interest and membership. After the closing of the lodge every one present entered the banquet room where ice cream and real Rebekah cake were served by the sisters, and boys there were some real cakes.
 Brothr Vincil had every thing in readiness and called on Brother Sloane to act as toastmaster. Brother Sloane immediately took advantage of his own forgetfulness by calling on Brother Wolfsen to make the address of wei come, which he did in words well chosen for the occasion. Others who responded with things relative to odd Fellowship in their own districts were Brother Collins, N. G., of Mesa lodge Brother Adams, V. G., of Tempe lodge; Brothers Fiat, Vaughn and Hargrave of Phoenix. and several visiting broth CTS including Brother Boss of New Jersey, who by the way, was so full of ice cream, cake, and the way they do things in New Jersey, was unable to stop within the time allotted him he was heavily fined for so doing Sisters Lund, Gordon and Vincil spoke for the Rebekah branch of the order
