New Hall a Fine Structure
The new hall is a fine structure Of
three stories. the first being occupied
by three stores. The second story
contains the banquet hall which seats
1876 people, the kitchen. ante rooms
and ladies' room. The lodge room is
situated on the third floor and it is
well finished and furnished. The
cloak room and other ante-rooms are
also on this floor.
This is the third hall that Lafay-
cite Lodge has occupied since the
charter was granted in 1876, the last
two being on the same site. The first
hall was built in 1927 and was oCcu-
pied until 1919, when the on" recent

The former hall was destroyed by
the fire which at the same time burn

This was 4 blow TO the members, as
they lost many of their records. Some
records were not in the safe at the
time of the fire and these were saved.

A fine banquet was then served in
tie banquet hall, the room being
filled. All manner of deicacieS were
on the menu. After the supper
Brother J. Q. Newton OF Readheld
was asked to act as POSTMASTER
He called upon Past Master T.. G.
Palmer, chairman of the Investigate
ing committee to tell of the events
which occurred between the last
meeting in May and the one Thurs
day evening.
The fire came as a bolt from the
sky and laid much of the town in
ashes. even the lodge charter was
lost. The fire occurred Saturday
night and word was passed for Il
meeting to be held the next day at
the Grange hall. About 10 members
were present. \ committee of three
memtcrs of the lodge and two from
the town was appointed to see what
could be done towards providing a
new meeting place. Another meeting
was held the following Tuesday. The
first plan which was entertained
proved SO costly that it had to be
abandoned, another was thought OF
which was to use the original lot.
BY contractors figures, this would
cost about $4,000. Nothing definite
was done at this time.
In July. the members dubbed to-
gether and cleaned up the debris.
The possibilities of using the various
halls in the vicinity were investigated
but. as this would do nothing toward
rebuilding the town this plan was
likewise abandoned.
At another meeting, the plans for
a new hall and for financing the
same were discussed. The result
was that an addition to the lodge was
purchased, and the building was
erected.
1t was due to the effort of Brother
II. +. Lincoln that the expense of
building the hail was not higher.
Brother Lincoln who is a contractor
of note came to this State for a vaca-
ton but undertook the work and
through his expert knowledge OF
building supplies. was able to pur-
chase at the lowest prices.
Another question was how to fur
nish the new building. a member of
another lodge said that he would like
to help furnish the lodge room. and
Vernon Valley Lodge of Mt. Vernon
and Asylum Lodge of Wayne, to-
gethor with other lodges and men,
bers have contributed largely to the
furnishings of the building.
The POSTMASTER then called upon
Brother II. +. Lincoln to tell about
the work on the new building. Mr..
Lincoln told of the pleasure which he
took in the work and OF the fine man.

folk helped in the work. He especial
