SHRINERS' PARADE
TOBE SPECTACULAR
Reservations for the Banquet
Should Be Made Immediately,
States Chairman LeCher

Members of zamora temple. Shriners
are receiving cards for reservations to
the banquet which will be held In con-
nection with the parade and double
ceremonial sessions June 6.
Chairman H. P. Lescher Is anxious to
have these reservations returned to
dim as promptly as possible in or
der that proper seating arrangements
can be made. The crowd will be very
large and it is considered important
to know as far in advance as possible
the number that will have to be cared
for.
Plans are still going forward with
dispatch for the various events in con-
rection with the day when several
hundred candidates will be initiated
into the mysteries OF the order Only
those are eligible to take the Shrine
degree who are either thirty-second
degree Masons or knights Templar
but the number of these has grown SO
apidly during recent months that the
Shrine class will be especially large.
IT is this fact which necessitates the
holding of one ceremonial in the aft
ernoon and one at night in order to
accommodate them all.
For the public the parade shortly
after noon on June will be the big
event of the day Spectacular fea-
lures have been planned which will
make it probably more elaborate than
ever seen here before.
