Impressive Installation For
Signal Chapter Officers

Peach colored gladiolas, accented
by greenery and gracefully arrang
ed in tall pedestal baskets, ferns,
and many palm branches made a
beautiful background for the i'm
pressive ritual of the Order of the
Eastern Star when Signal chapter
No. 276 installed it's officers Satur-
day night in the Masonic temple.
In the East, at either side of the
dais, stood an immense peach col
ored candle with golden cellophane
! flame, and in front of the pedestal
was large ship, the IS. S. Har-
mony'' symbolic of the new worthy
matron's theme for the year.
Mrs. George Bucklin is the new
worthy matron and a bit of senti-
ment was contributed in her install
lation since her mother-in-law,
Mrs. A. N. Bucklin, who is herself
a past worthy matron of the chap
ter, had the pleasure of inducting
the new matron into office. In her
speech of acceptance Mrs. Bucklin
developed the theme of harmony
Which she has chosen for this year,
and which will be embodied in all
chapter activities. The new matron
made a charming picture in her
handsome rose taffeta gown, to
which Mrs. A. N. Bucklin's wine
colored velvet frock made pretty
color contrast.
Mrs. George Bucklin's flowers,
the gift of her family, were present.
