JOHN w MARTIN. Editor

if you do not find the doings of your lodge in this column 1t is your fault. See that some one is appointed to write information of interest to your members and the happenings of your meetings to the editor of this column. Copy must be in this office by 5 p. m. Thursday. Use typewriter, if possible, and write on only one side of paper. Do not make reports too long. Between 200 and 300 words will be about right and thus allow room for all lodges in this vicinity to get their activities before their members.

 Last Wednesday night the Moose had one of the best meetings they have held in a long time and the meetings for some time past have been very in teresting. The attendance was very good and there were a number of visit ing brothers present. Three candidates were initiated and several new apph cations were received. Considerable business was on hand but it was car ried through with dispatch. Several members were reported sick. Under the good of the order remarks were made by a number of those present. Some of the brothers from the new lodge recently chartered in Mesa were present and added cheer to the meet ing. We are certainly gaining ground. The members are taking more interest in the meetings and we are looking forward to the time when the hall will be crowded. Tom brennan was elected vice dictator in place of John Wagner who resigned

FABRICS NAMED FOR CITIES

Towns and Villages.

The origin Of the names Jf popular

the tracing to third lngual roots OF
ordinary words, says a writer in the
New York Evening Mail.
About the year 1899 the wooden
trade OF FL gland became located at
WOrsted, about fifteen miles from Nor
wich, and it vas at this place that the
manufacture Of the twisted double
thread wooden, afterward called
worsted, was first made, If not in

Linsey-wOolscy was first made ut

1t was nearly always with regard to

SIMPLE FROCKS FOR KlDDlES
Children of Different Types Require
Styles That Suit, but Not
Fancy Clothes.

Simple frocks and plenty Of them is
the best possible guide to the mother
who would have her small daughters
we'll dressed. Children's styles change
very little from season to season, ana
the %youngster who is clean and well
grOcmed is always attractive looking.
EiabOratp!y trimmed dresses are new
or in good taste for children. Another
point that should be considered when
planning clothes for members OF the
Younger generation is the matter OF
type. There are plain tailored chill
dren and f~uffy-rutflcs children. just
as there are different types OF grown
ups, and certainly the blue-eyed cher
ub with golden curls and the dark
eyed youngsters with straight. dark
lair, bobbed just below the ears. do
not require the anne styles in clothes.
For warm weather Organdie has had
Il great vogue this season, sharing hOn-
ors with dotted swiss. VOileS have

dainty little wolfe frocks have been
brought out. Wolfe does not generally
