There are just two kinds Of

A LEADING Georgia Mason, who
is a resident of Americas, was
talking to a Times-Recorder man a
day OF two ago. Il and a few other
Masons have a dream-a rather won
derful dream" said he, "and one that
is entirely feasible and could be
worked out if the, people-the whole
city-would get behind US. 1t is a
dream Of acquiring a Masonic head
quarters or home here for the Third
District and make Americas the per
manent seat of this convention.
"The old Y. NJ. C. A. building,
which the Salvation Army recently
gave up when its plans fell through,
presents the opportunity. 1t can be
acquired from the group of local ply
sieaaHs who hold it. | understand, for
$50, 000-about what it cost them.
1t would require $100 900 to add an
ether story to the building for
lodge hall, so as to leave the re-
mainder or present building much as
it is, with all of its facilities. That is
a total of $4,000. There is a loan
of $4,000 now on the building,
which would defer that much Of the
total payment. Arrangements can
be made with DR.. Prather for time
on another $4,000, which would
leave $4,000 in money all that
would be required to turn the deal
and make our dream come true.

sNOW, here is where the advant-
age to the public would come
in:
Making Americus the permanent
home of the convention, with an at
tractive lodge home for the visiting
Masons to come to, would mean that
the convention would take on import
ance every year and it would be only
a short time until 1000 or more
members would be coming here ev-
cry year for the meeting from the
surrounding territory When I tell
you that one Mason informed me this
week that he had spent 500 on his
visit here, it will be understood what
I mean when I say this has much i'm
portance to the city at large. 1t would
be a prorortionately greater thing
for Americas than the Masonic Grand
Lodge is to the city of Macon.
''Too, turning this fine property
into a Masonic headquarters would
preserve it for every purpose for
which it was originally intended. The
baths, gymnasium, reading room, dor
mitories and other conveniences
would be retained and available fol
public use a sehetofore, and that il
worthy consideration.

all working toward the same end, and
numerous other organizations whose
chief aim is community advancement.
Here appears to be real opportun-
ity for them to do something really
big and important for Americas by

this dream" and turning it into a
reality.
1t can be done--easily. Let's do it.
