COLORS PRESENTED TO MASONIC LODGE
Regiment Raised During RevO-
 Iutionary War Form Lodge

EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND. = De- fense Bank Masonic Lodge No. 101, was founded in 17S2, and the whole of the minute books from the commencement have been preserved.
 It had its origin in the outcome of the great war between England and America. The citizens of Edinburgh, for their own protection, applied to the War Office for permission to raise q regiment of volunteers. The regiment was under the control of the Lord Pro- vost. When independence was won by the eolonists, more than 50 of the regi- mene applied to the Grand Lodge of Scotland to erect and constitute them into q Lodge of Free-masons to be known as the Edinburgh Defense Band. This was done in November. 17S2.
 On the night of its constitution the whole regimental band was initiated and for many years contributed to the harmony of the meetings. When the corps was disbanded the colors of the regiment were presented to the lodge, along with the musket and belts used by the first apprentice, which articles are still in the possession of the lodge.

 Now that the big picnic is over, the officers of the grotto are directing their energies to the ceremonial session to be held October s, which marks the sec ond anniversary of Kamram' grotto, and campaign has been started to secure 2,500 candidates for the occasion. Sec retary Kirby reports that quite a num- Der of applications have already been received and that the prospects were excellent for the quota to be reached.
 Kamram grotto, with its S,095 mem bers, is the second largest grotto in the world, Long grotto of Brooklyn, N. Y., leading it by a few hundred members. When this anniversary class is initiated 1t is confidently expected that Kamram grotto will take the enviable position as the leading grotto of the world, dis tinction that the members of Kamram may justly feel proud.
 In order to make the anniversary celebration and ceremonial a notable event in the history of the grotto, in-

.ELKOI]RE TALKS
 ON MOOSEHEART
Membership Of Moose Greatly Increased Dur-
 ing The Year

At the regular meeting of Birming- ham Lodge Loyal Order of Moose held last "Wednesday night, Dr. H. A. FL kourie made report on the supreme Moose convention held recently at New York and gave his impression of his visit to MIeoseheart. A resolution was adopted permitting the ladie sof. the Mo0seheaft Legion to sit in the lodge room while Dr. Elkourie was making his report
 Previous to the dictator's report, Thomas F. Patterson, one of the dele gates to the convention made report as to the state of the order. He stated the report of the supreme secretary showed that the order had made greater progress both numerically and finan. cially last year than inj the prior seven years. The grand total of assets he reported are $32, ,O00, GOO.
 Dictator Elkourie in reporting his impressions of Mooseheart designated the institution as "that wonderful shrine of childhood, where nearly twelve hundred children are being cared for, educated and trained by the Moose" "
 4HE WOEA lltNL tH DEAhB NVuE dt Mooseheart is amazing" he said, marvellous is mild word. ''The build- ings both as to architectural beauty and from the standpoint of sanitation are second to none in the world. They are srotless in every detail, absolutely free from disease, and the sanitary arrange inents are the best l have ever seen. That this is true can be gathered from the fact that there has not been a single death in Mooseheart in the past three years. This is an eloquent trib- ite to the sanitary precautions and the dietlcian of the institution.
 After describing the "baby'' village at length he stated that he had the opportunity to see the little ones just after their noon day meal as they were being prepared for their afternoon sleep. "It was a sight that would have gLad- dened the heart of a man of stone" he said.
 In speaking of the convention Dr. FL kourie said 1t was inspiring through out, and that there were so many good things about it that one could hardly grasp them all. The speech of Ed ward Hennirg," he said, "was perhaps tne pest speech mAue uuIluB tue CVu- gention, except perhaps that of James e, Davis. Mir. Henning is assistant secretary of labor and has just returned from Rome where he attended the In- ternational Immigration conference as a representative of the United States. He made the point that had Europe been imbued with the Moose spirit, there would have been no World war, and added until Europe gets ac- quainted with the Moose spirit, I fear that the World war, and the sacrifices made therein, has been fought in vain. :"
 The lodge passed a resolution of thanks to Dr. Elkourie for the able manner in which he had represented the cause of Birmingham for the next supreme convention.
 Report was made that the fund for the building of q Moose home in Bir- mingham had reached $8,O00 and state ment was made that an intensive solic- itation of subscriptions to this fund would be started in few weeks.
