sent because of illness. All subordi-
nate officers present were also in
stalled.
An interesting feature of the in
installation was father and son
being installed masters. Dennis Hen
son, Pomona Master, and his son,
Chester, master of Horse Heaven
grange, were installed side by side.
We think this is the first time this
has occurred in the state.
The subordinate officers who were
not present to be installed must be
installed before they are officers.
All masters take notice and see that
this is done in your grange.
There were LIZ present for the aft

Hughes, Elmer Richter and Sister
Caroline Alexander. We also mourn
the loss of Brother E. r. Eby Of
Franklin county.
Thirteen candidates were initial

stated.
During the grange visitations a
