80 LOCAL PERSONS JOIN
Ceremony One of the Best
Says Gilbert Haugen, Local
Mason Secretary

Masons from Bismarck. Mandan,
Fargo, Linton and many other North
Dakota points completed their re-
union ceremonies at the local temple
last night when the Fargo members
of the Knights kadosh concluded
work of comforting the thirtieth de-
gree.
The work was finished about IL
o'clock last night and the number of
persons who received the degrees
brought the total to we'll above 100.
according to Gilbert S. Haugen, Sec
retary of the local Mason lodge.
"The annual reunion of the Bis
marck- -Mandan lodges is closed, and
with it closes one Of the most sue
cessful meetings Of the lodges from
the two cities and surrounding ter
ritory," Haugen said today.
Included Many Lodges
"The meeting was undoubtedly
one of the best, and certainly one of
the biggest, in the history of the
Bismarck lodge. Masons from prac-
tically every part of the state WIS.,
tied the lodge to watch the work of
comforting the degrees, and candi-
dates came from many parts of this
section of the state.
Although the meeting started out
as the Mandan- Bismarck Reunion,
it included representatives from
lodges of all parts of the state. The
part played by the Fargo Prcceptory
Council of kadosh was no small one.
Walter r. Reed, inspector general
in North Dakota, was in Bismarck
during the comforting, for the pur-
pose of initiating the Great Plain
Council of Kadosh at Bismarck The
Fargo team of the Council Of Ka-
dosh was in Bismarck and did the
work of comforting the degrees from
the 10th to the 3Oth.
Consistory Seen
Zone of the outstanding results of
the meeting, besides the initiation Of
. large number of candidates into
the lodge, was the intimation by In
spector General Reed that a full
fledged consistory will be instituted
at Bismarck next spring. This will
give the Bismarck lodge power to
confer all the degrees up to the
thirty-sccond. This is an honor that
Bismarck Masons and all other cit
izens Of Bismarck and all the sur
rounding territory can be justly
proud Of.
Il wish to thank all Masons OF
Bismarck and the surrounding towns
and cities for their fine cooperation
during the ceremony and also the
citizens of Bismarck for the man.
ner in which they welcomed the Wis.,
iting Masons into their city"
