Don HOlzmueller, our scribe, de-
serves the praise that was bestowed
upon him by Past Supreme Tall Ce-
dar Pearson, in his official report at
the Supreme Forest convention. Mem
bers would do we'll to read this ar
ticle in the Supreme Forest pro-
ceedings of 1899. It's OK.
The members OF Evergreen that at
tended the ceremonial at Cambridge,
Md. ON the seventh had swell op-
portunity to see the new Supreme
Tall Cedar Thomas c. Havell, in ac-
ton. Every one agreed that he was
a swell person, a good mixer, with
personality that is an asset to the
fraternity You just can't help but
like him. His kindly, easy-going
manner just fits him into the Eastern
Shore picture. The Supreme Forest
made an excellent choice. He is go
ing places.
Bill Reynolds of Houston, member
of the floor committee of Evergreen
Forest, is one member that attends
to his task properly. Whenever any
paraphernelia is out of order or
missing. Bill gets it from somewhere.
He is Libby -McNeal & Libby Co. rep
lesentative.
Bill WagamOn, one of our trumpet
players in the band, is one of the
few Tall Cedars in the United States
who is an expert miller. He is a
member of the firm Diamond State
Milling Co. of Milton. If you care to
see a modern mill, stop in to see
this one.

at every ceremonial. He is also treas
urer of Temple Lodge No. 3, A. +. K

Just a word about one of our tried
and true members. Robert j. Pretty
man. No member of the fraternity
has done more to keep the Forest
going than has Bob Prettyman. Or
Fanizer OF our fine band many years
ago, that he so faithfully directed
until a while back. when he asked to
be relieved that he might devote his
time to playing baritone, his favorite
instrument. We have seen them come
and go. but the old band still remains
{ credit to the forest, due to the eff
forts of Bob. His advice and judg-
ment on matters pertaining to Ever
green Forest is eagerly sought by the
officers. Mr.. Prettyman resides on
South Walnut street, Milford. and is
associated with the Milford Trust !
Co.

the Forest have had their heads to-
sether recently, planning no doubt
TO put over another swell evening in
November. Bob Morgan, of the high
way department Georgetown, is sec
retary to this committee that is doing
excellent work.

Important notice to all Evergreen
members Get a line on our band
director Russ Snyder. According to
the latest reports he has been select

sixth Kiwanis district More power
TO him. Don't forget to address him
as governor in the future.

With so much going on is it any
wonder that people are complaining
that they can't take in everything
This doesn't affect Evergreen Forest.
The attendance at the last ceremonial |
was above the average. Something
was going on every minute until
Twelve, and then some.
Chesapeake Forest, No. lis, of
Cambridge. Md. has a Grand Tall Ce-
dar that fits into Evergreen's pic
ture of a swell gentleman. Morris
Jones, of Easton, who is so ably fill
ing that position, has endeared him '
self to the Delaware crowd, with his
friendly words of greeting, wonder
full hospitality and smile that won't
come off. He was the guest of Ever {
green at a recent ceremonial in Mil
ford.
Ed. Green, cashier of the George
town Trust Co.. one of the county's
finest, takes time out to attend to his {
duties with the Forests Rangers. He {
was on the job at the last i
Last months ceremonial was just
the kind to bring back old memories
10 the few remaining members of 5
1920. The entire initiation put on by &
the stunt crew was a bowling sue
