VISIT TO MOBILES HERE
Town Was Alive With Shriners
Monday Night Who Gave an
Exhibition Drill at School

Mobiles of Ali Chan Temple, Cum
berland,. accompanied by their ladies,
the band and drum corps came to Oak
land by motors on Monday night and
from the moment of their arrival until
their departure at eleven o'clock the
town was theirs. STD.
The Shriners met and formed at the
grammar school building and the pa
rade headed by Potentate Harry A.
Marley, marched through the princi-
pal streets of the town, returning to
the place of starting where music was
rendered by the band and an exhibi-
ton drill given by the patrol. The
chanters also contributed much to the
pleasure of those present when they
rendered several selections.
At the close of the drill the Shrin-
ers, with the members of the Oak
land Blue Lodge as their guests, went
to the skating rink on Third street
where they enjoyed dancing for an
hour or more and were served with re-
freshments. The affair was brought to
a close at eleven o'clock when the
visitors returned to Cumberland.
The visit of this organization to
Oakland was greatly enjoyed by every
resident Of the town.
