 The stage was beautifully decorat- ed with greenery and magnificent floral display. Back of the stage massive broken column symbolized the tribute of the brothers, and em- blazoned on the base was the legend: 'To our Absent Brothers. Beside this column, draped in snowy white, stood Mrs. John s. Mulligan, Jr., as "oorrow", during the reading of the names of the departed brothers. As these names were read the electric clock flashed across it's dial purple light, while the hands pointed in red to the hour of eleven, the mystic hour of Elkdom.
 The music was beautiful, the Mes danes Tafel, Devine, Parker and Rob- ertson singing the Evening Hym". The other musical numbers were: Solo, "The Silent Voice., by Mrs. R. C. Jacobson; Violin Solo, Angel Ser enade", by Miss Pat Mccarthy; Vocal Solo, Madeline Lupher Gardner.
 Hon. Sidney P. Osborne; of Phoenix lodge, delivered the address, and this address was a masterpiece. In fact it was one of the best addresses that has ever been our good fortune to lis ten to at a memorial service in the state.
 The officers officiating were: Paul H. Morton, exalted ruler; L. M. Wheeler, chaplain; Walter P. Jones', secretary; w. S. Thompson, treasurer; John s. Mulligan, jr., leading knight; Charles A. Dutton, loyal knight; Wayne Hubbs, featuring knight; J. w. Fettes, inner guard; T. w. Devine, esquire; S. H. Miller, tyler; Ora Gruninger, organist. These officers put on a splendid exemplification of the true spirit of memorial service, and gave to those who attended one of the most beautiful ceremonials that Kingman has ever witnessed. The decorations were something out of the ordinary, being made up of the long, sweeping palm leaves, masses of ivy and banks of magnificent roses and carnations. It will be long remem- bered by those who were fortunate witnesses of the event.
