RANDOM NOTES ON s H R | N E FESTIVITIES

It's safe bet that the dedicatory exercises and ceremonial will finger longest in the minds of the candi- dates. In fact several of them were heard to say that never would the occasion of crossing the hot sands ot the desert be forgotten.
 Illustrious Potentate Ernest E. Matthews don't seem bit swelled up over the great success of the affair. even though he has ample cause to be. for under his guiding hand and event ever staged in Birmingham m went off like clock work.
 Appealing especially to the kids, were the clowns with their many an tics who jollied along the rear ot tainly had all the ear marks of real professionals.
 Probably no one figure in the en- tire line of march excited greater ad- miration and commendation than did Sam Foley, drum major of Zamora band, who led the procession. Not Soloman in All His Glory" says the Zamorian, but just sam Foley. MT. Foley certainly made a striking pie ture- bedecked in his multi colored satins and silks.
 Probably on no other similar occa- sion in the entire south has a greater number of Potentates been in attend ance than were present in Birming- ham. All voice their unstinted praise of the occasion as the greatest ever.
 Shriners always make it a rule to have jolly good time, whatever the occasion. and this they did in Btr- mingham. noticeable however in that nothing of an offensive nature could have been credited to q wearer of the fez.
 The muchly touted "the mile long parade gorgeous with glttering splendor. earth's greatest spectacle the boast of all circuses. was com pletely outdone by the really three mile long parade the Shriners staged Many copious Noble was heard te declare that the parade was three miles long and the route ten. Prob ably Old Sol bore down with suffi- cient force as to cause a slight mis- calculation of the length of the route traversed.
 Many visiting ladies were in at- tendance during the dedication exer- cess of the memorial day services and an invitation is extended tc every member to participate in and help make the affair worthy of the memory of the departed of the orders
