Holidays in the Country.
r" From the Manchester Courier,
g The romantic movement of the last century
had elements of the ridiculous in It, ;
as had the pastoral shepherd craze of the
i- previous one. But underneath each lay
I., a genuine upwelllng of natural feeling.
1- and this is the motive power in the holiday
movement of today.

In furtherance of his intention, as announced
in The Star two weeks ago.
Chairman Wilson of the general committee
on the new Masonic Temple housewarming,
which is to take place from
September 2tt to October 10, called together
the general committee, consisting
of representatives of all the Masonic bodies
In the District, Tuesday evening at
Nattonal Rifles' Armory, and laid before
it the tentative plans for the celebration
of the event as recommended by the executive
committee and already published
in The Star. They were approved with enthusiasm.
The question of tickets was solved by
the adoption of Past Master Louis D. Carmon's
suggestion that season tickets be
sold at SI. each ticket to have twelve coupons
attached and each coupon to be
worth lo cents in the payment for the inside
attractions. Roe Fulkerson's suggestion
that single admission tickets, with
three lO-cent coupons attached, be sold at
25 cents was also adopted.
Satisfactory reports were received from
the stock subscription committees, headed
by W. Ham Smith and Roe Fulkerson, as
well as from Dr. Frank Gibson, chairman
of the amusement committee. While the
general plan of amusement was made
known, consisting, in part, of a big vaudeville
show in the upper auditorium, "a
la cafe chantant." as the doctor put It,
those who have been let into his secret
say his program will be one of the unique
features of the housewarmlng and a complete
and enjoyable surprise.
So well did the general committee feel
that Chairman Wilson and his executive
committee had done the work assigned
them that they confirmed the appointment
of all his special committees and gave
him carte blanche orders to go ahead.
Chairman Wilson announced- his Intention
of keeping in close touch with the
oranoro 1 nnmrnlftap ?i nH tlin Q'tflllPK of flit'
fraternity at large. He stated that he
was receiving splendid co-operation and
support from members of the fraternity
who had as yet been assigned no active
part in the work ahead; and he felt that
the outlook for a great Jubilee when the
new temple was "warmed" was exceedingly
bright.
The present plan is to provide pure enjoyment
without anything of an irksome
character. There will be no money solicitors
under any guise whatsoever, and the
slightest semblance of a fair or of a
money-making entertainment will be rigidly
guarded against, It is said.
"Members of the fraternity," said
Chairman Wilson, "will know where they
stand when they come to the entertainment.
and they will know where they are
going to stand when they leave It. The
slight tax that will be borne by each will
scarcely be noticeable, and thus we hope
to provide a general good time for the
craft, without, the employment of the
gouge system in any form."
