Rebekah News
Reporter, Mildred Bridgers

Past Noble Grand Mildred Brid-
gers has served Margaret c.. Pyle
Lodge as reporter for the past
year. She has done an excellent job
and her weekly account of lodge
activities throughout the state have
been of interest to us all. She has
kept us well informed of all Odd
Fellowship News. This she was
able to do because of her extreme
interest in the Rebekah Lodge,
aided by the fact that she visited
other lodges throughout the state
in the company of the State AS
sembly Officer, Color Bearer Ella
Warren. No one can appreciate her
work any more than your Jr. Past
Noble Grand who here now is pub
lically thanking Mildred for job
well done. 1 shall try to do the
job as well. Also tribute should be
paid to our Flower and Card chair
man, Maude Frick, who is again
taking over that job. She also has
filled her duties to perfection and
never once missed sending those
sick or in distress remembrance
from the lodge. These jobs re-
quire many unseen hours and are
so necessary in the performance
of running the lodge. Vice Grand,
Helen Bunting is chairman of the
Ways and Means, and Mary Camp
er will be representative on the
General Service Committee. There
are several other duties that your
Noble Grand will call upon mem
bers to help carry out and it is only
through complete corporation that
her year can be happy and sue
cessful one. On Thursday, May 21,
members and their families en-
joyed a covered dish supper to well
come into office Noble Grand Sara
Prettyman. 1t was an affair en-
joyed by everyone and after the
families had left at 500, the lodge
was called to order and a very
successful meeting was conducted
| by the Noble Grand and her staff
of officers. Following the meeting
all were congratulated on the ex-
cellent way they had participated
in their first meeting and especial
ly Noble Grand Sara Prettyman
who conducted the meeting in per-
feet form. The entire lodge is very
fond of Sara and we know her year
as Noble Grand will be a pleasant
one for both her and all members.
1t is up to all of the members to
support the Noble Grand by at
tending all meetings and events
planned for the coming year.
Birthday for the month of May
sort of slipped by, but to the fol-
lowing we hope you all had a hap
py day: Florence Meredith, Mary
Drummond, 18th and Noble Grand,
lSara Prettyman, 25th.
