TO ASK
FOR BRANCH OF
SCOTTISH RITE
Council Of Deiiberation at Preeport
Gets Petition for Lodge of
Perfection

Application will In all probability
be made at the meeting OF the
Council of De1iberation, a Masonic
body composed of the Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite organize
lions in Illinois, which will con-
vene in Freeport Tuesday for the
institution of a Lodge of Perfection
In Moline.
Freeport is the home Of Freeport
consistory, Ancient and Accepted
Scottish Rite, and the Council OF
Deliberation which will assemble in
the Freeport Masonic temple is
vested with the authority to sane
ton the institution OF a Lodge OF
Perfection.
The consistory at Freeport con-
fers the Masonic degrees from the
fourth to the thirty-second inclus-
I've.
The Lodge of Perfection for
which Moline Masons of the rite
will petition is authorized to con-
fer the degrees from the fourth 20
the fourteenth inclusive.
Chalmers J. Seymour. Moline,
who has been elected to receive the
thirty-third degree of Free Ma
sonry. is one of an influential group
who is promoting the matter Of tbs
institution of the Lodge of Per
lection.
II the petition is granted and a
lodge instituted it will do away
with the necessity of Master Ma
sons residing in Moline and Rock
Island journeying to Peoria and
ether points equally distant to re-
ceiYe degrees.
Carl A. Hallgren and II. H.
Cleayeland, Rock Island, both of
whom are honorary thirty-third de-
gree Masons, are planning to at
tend the session OF the Council OF
Deliberation, which will draw Ma
sons of high degree from many sec
tons OF Illinois.
May Get q Shrine.
Masons resident in Rock Island
and Moline have for long time
been endeayoring to secure a tenn
pie of Mobiles of the Mysic Shrine
and 3 Lodge OF Perfection of the
Ancient and Accepted Scottish
Rite. The only question has been
as to the location of either body.
Rock Island Masons feel that if
one of the two cities secures a
Lodge of Perfection. the other
should have the privilege of secur-
ing a temple of the Shrine. The
question of Who's Who?" is once
again TO the fore.
The petition for the institution of
the Lodge of Perfection in Moline
is now being circulated by Mr..
Seymour and his associates and if
the effort comes to a successful is
sue at the meeting of the Council
of Deliberation in Freeport, it is
very probable that Rock Island
Shriners will petition for the insti-
tuition OF a Temple of the Shrine
in Rock Island at the next meet
ing OF the Imperial Council OF that
body which has Just closed its 1922
convention in San Francisco.

WISE WOMEN.


A famous medical man Of ancient
times states regarding his writings
that they were but a collection of
knowledge obtained from the Wise
Women"
Do you realize that in those times
the women. and not the men, knew
about the healing properties Of me-
dicinal plants. roots and herbs !
From the earliest times, women
had a knowledge OF the> treatment
OF disease and Of the healing merit
Of roots and herbs.

Compound was originated by a
woman, Lydia E. Pinkham, and is
now KNOWN and praised by women
of all ages. 1t is prepared from

than any other nation. Before the
war, ships of Great Britain ruled
the seas but divided the carrying
trade in large part with Germany.
American shipping officials believe
the United States should not allow
Great Britain to monopolize the sea
trade, especially since Germany is
without ships to carry the trade
she had before the war, even if
she could restore 1t tomorrow.
The opinion held in American
quarters is that there is plenty of
room in the world for two mari
time powers of major size and that
America, which sought no territory
or indemnity in the war and gave
freely OF her blood and treasure.
should not be begrudged the use of
her immense war fleet for peace
time purposes. The British have
taken over most OF the German
ships as payment for war damages
and would like the United States
to become discouraged on the mer-
chant marine question and sell the
ships at auction.
President Determin ed.
InSsmuch as American private
operators insist they cannot COM
pete with foreign ships without a
subsidy the sale of America e
merchant fleet would mean the in
crease in tonnage and sea trade to
foreign countries and since Great
Britain is financially able to buy
more ships the chances are a sale
of American vessels would mean
the ultimate passage of the Ameri-
can war fleet into British hands.
This more than anything else Is
responsible for the earnestness and
determination OF President Hard
ing to get ship SUBSIDY bill
through congress. There is also
the secondary, though by no means
unimportant, question of having
a merchant fleet that could be used
as an auxiliary in case Of naval
war. Although America has cut
her navy down and agrees to do no
more building of war vessels for
the next ten years, she would be
at a serious disadvantage if a mar
thine war did break out for the
other nations could convert their
merchant marine into commerce
raiders and troop transports almost
Immediately.

The United States had to depend
upon British tonnage for many
months in carrying troops TO

THUNDER-CLAP A FAST
MOVING MELODRAMA

A picture of three thoroughbreds-
a girl, a boy and horse--a picture
of countless thrills and fast-moving
action-a picture which starts the
heart beating and causes the blood
to tingle-that is "Thunderclap," the
interesting melodrama which comes
to the Casino theatre today. This
story carries action, suspense, heart
interest, juvenile appeal, pathos,
sympathy, hate. jealousy, sentiment
and romance. In fact it contains ev-
cry known melodramatic ingredient.
The picture is interesting from in
ception to conclusion and affords a
highly interesting two hours-in
which the spectator is greeted with
the blowing up of bridge and a res
cue from an angry stream, the horse
race and many others equally excit-
ing. The cast includes Mary Carr
who again gives a wonderful per-
Torrance, Barney Sherry, Violet Mer-
sereau and Walter McEwen.
