That Scottish Rite Masons have come to Minot to stay was clerly evidenced by the large class initiated into the mysteries of Scottish Rite Free Masonry, in this city laat Fri day, and likewise by the enthusiasm exhibited and the favorable impression created in this city. "You can do anything in Minot," was the tribute paid the new lodge by Sovereign '"Grand Inspector General Plumley, 33 "degree, as he gazed at one of the largest classes ever taken into a Lodge of Perfection in this state. The class numbered 147, but only 138 were E. B. McCUTCHEON, Venerable Master initiated, the balance being unavoid ably absent, but these have been placed in a new class now being formed and in a short time another session will be held and another big class initiated. The work in the va rious degrees was exemplified by brethren of the Scottish Rite of Fargo. The Fourth degree was ex emplified in the forenoon and was in charge of F. B. Leach, K. C. C. H. as Venerable Master, assisted by others from Fargo and Minot. Lunch eon was served at 12 noon by the ladies of the Methodist Episcopal church in the dining hall in the base ment of the church. At 1 P. M. the official photo of the class and visitors F. C. UPTON, Senior Warden was taken on the new High School grounds, after which all marched back to the Masonic Temple, where labors were resumed. Starting at 2 P. M. the work of the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth de'grees was put on and, owing to the large crowd, the lack of space and other facilities, the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thir teenth degrees were communicated. Scottish Rite work to be exemplified in full form requires stage settings and scenery, which is something not yet owned by Masonic bodies in Minot, but will be in the near future. The lectures in the various degrees were given by A. G. Arvold, 33° Hon., of Fargo, in a most masterly fashion and created a most favorable 'impression. Mr. Arvold, besides be- im L. F.

At 6 P. M. the entire body marched to the Leland hotel where the tradi tional Scottish Rite banquet was served. Tables were set for 200. Mrs. Anna Quinn, Minot's pleasing soloist, enlivened the banquet with several numbers and made a decided hit with all present, and besides being very generous with her encores, sang more numbers than expected, all of which were highly appreciated. Flaten's Orchestra furnished a splen did selection of music which greatly assisted the success of the banquet. At the conclusion of the banquet, order was called by E. B. McCutcheon, Veneralbe Master, who acted as toastmaster, and in a few well chosen sentences introduced Sovereign Grand Inspector General Plumley, 33°, who gave a very impressive talk, which was well received by those present on the subject, "What Masonry Means to Me." Here it might be stated that Mr. Plumley is the only 33° active Mason in the state and in addition to being the Sovereign Grand Inspector General of the Scottish Rite for the State of North Dakota, is also a mem ber and officer of the Supreme Council at Washington, being at the present time Grand Equerry. He has been ac tively engaged in Scottish Rite work for over 30 years. At the conclusion of Mr. Plumley's address a short talk was given in behalf of the class by Dr. Alexander McCannel, Who has! just recently returned from govern-! ment medical military servi'ce in the Hawaiian Islands, serving with the-t rank of Major. Hon. Geo. H. Phelps, I 33° Mason, of Bowbells, spoke briefly! for the lodge. Two laughable in stances that came up during the ban quet might be mentioned. Dr. Putnam of Fargo, who was present and in charge of the new Minot Scottish Rite choir, and"who had been teaching the choir anew North Dakota Shrine song written for El Zagal Temple by Direc tor Orr. rose during the banquet and insisted the new song be sung and it made a direct hit with all present. Not to be outdone bv Fargo, Major Person called all the Minot men to their feet and all sang. "Minot, Beautiful Mi not," which likewise was well receiv ed.

At the conclusion of the degree and before adjourning the Venerable Mas' ter of Preparedness Lodge, E. B. Mc Cutcheon, called for order for a 1rief business meeting and it took but a few minutes to show that the Lodge was not only very wide awake but destin ed to become a real asset to Minot. Im mediately it fvas voted to buy $1,000 Victory Bonds, $600 War Savings Stamps and donate $100 to the Soldier Boys' fund for the 4th of July. This has already been attended to and the1 Bonds and Stamps paid for and they now rest in the Treasurer's possession E. S.
