real live civic asset of great
value to our town.
AT 7:3O the lodge was called
to order by Grand Chancellor,
Eddins for the purpose of Install
ing officers for the ensuing year
of 1921. The officers were pre-
sented with their jewels and the
Chancellor Commander elect
John B. King made a very i'm
pressive speech, urging all
Pythians to be true to pythian-
ism and to make this the best
year in the history of our lodge.
Bro. Eddins was introduced.
Those who have heard him know
that lis unusually eloquent and
oratorical in just normal speak
ing, but on this occasion he
seemed tuned for his subject
In this address he gave us some
shop talk, urging all knights
to be true to Pythianism and 1t
will continually lead us into lot-
tier purposes and purer asplra-
tions and through the exempli
fication of its beautiful principles
we can bless all mankind.
Our next speaker was Bro. Il.
M Quin G. K. R. S. His as
pirations are high, honorable
and noble. He has lived long
and served Pythians long
enough to commit himself for
all time with the records Of our
Grand Lodge and our glorious
order. Those of US who have
known him SO long find that the
,, lasting impressions Of his person
the character and his pythia r
performances, which we live,
will never be obIiterated The
speaker was full of facts, logic,
eloquence and fun and was in
terrupted almost continuously
by prolonged applause.
For the benefit of our lady
friends Bro. J. 7. Stanford gave
,. in his own forceful way the
: lessons Of friendship Of Damon
for Pythian, which was thor
oughly enjoyed by all.
One of the big features of th'
!, ceremonies was the splendi(
banquet served at the Whit
: House Cafe, where tables wer'
arranged to seat 81 guests. Bro
L. P. Haley served as toastmas
