FREDERICK H. HICKS
Senior Deputy who is slated as the
next Supreme Tall Cedar of the
United States.
II you happen to notice a crowd
cOngregating around the corner
store in Houston these days, pass it
up as an every day occurrence. It's
just another argument between Bill
Reynolds, Gene Sharp and Bill
Simpson about whose car to drive to
the next Evergreen ceremonial.
DIR. Russell J. Emory, one of our
Harrington members. has been high
ly hOnOred BY the members of his
profession this year Recently elect
ed president of the Delaware State
Dental Society. he takes his honOrs
lightly Mr.. Cedar. that is one organ
izGtiOn that practices the painless in
dIstry in a new tangled way; but,
oh hoy. don't they know how TO Sc
lect leaders in that good old fash
iOned manner. Evergreen Forest
members extend their best wishes to
the doctor for successful term
When Scott X. HuffOrd. G. T. c. of
Brandywine Forest No. 20. and his
crowd of fun seekers visit. they are
bound out for an evening OF fun. AT
cur March ceremonial nearly fifty
members from Brandywine were
present to enjoy the festivities
.h %
OF the two lower counties certainly
does tend to create a fine feeling of
understanding. and a better frater-
nal spirit. To say they enjoyed their
visit would be placing il mildly. To
express how we enjoyed their visit
would be placing il in the same light.

proudly carried the l2-pOund turkey

ward after the meeting on the 18th,
leaving everyone wondering what
size family Norman Calhoun has. il
and when he places the pound and
half duck on his table, that was
awarded him as the BOBBY door prize !
A peculiar situation has arose in
many fraternal organizations that is
hard TO explain. Ours is no excep-
lion 10 the rule. II seems that men
who receive the highest hOnOrs an
organization can bestow. drop out of
the picture as soon as their term is
over, apparently receiving what they
were looking Tor II this class of
men only knew how quickly they
were forgotten, perhaps il might be
4 different. story This does not ap-
ply To two of our Past Grand Tall
Cedars DR. Walter Grier and George
s Gricr. They are always present
AT Evergreen ceremOnials, lending 1
ii helping hand, giving kindly words I
OF advice and encouragement to our I
officers and committees Both are {
men who know the game and are Tall I
Cedars and gentlemen at heart Each S
is held in the highest esteem by EV- v
ergreen members There isn't any S
doubt but that either could receive I
the highest honors the fraternity | Il
could bestOw if they would accept. l.
Men of this calibre are valuable as I
Sci to any organization.
