Noble Grand Steiner opened our
meeting last Monday evening, No
vember 8, with about 80 members
present and one visitor, Grand Rep

who really seems like one of us.
We were very glad to have him
with us, and we all thoroughly en-
loyed hearing of his trip to the
Grand Lodge of the United States
which was held at Des Moines,
Iowa. Not only did he tell us of
all the proceedings of the assembly,
but he showed us picture Of it.,
with him in the picture, of the body
while in session to prove to the sub
ordinate lodges Of Delaware that
he was really present.

Offerings of Governments were
extremely light from the start
