roll call of the officers sounded, the re
sponse thereto proved that none were
abient, furthermore proving that near
ly every member of the lodge was pres
ent, and much interest and enthusiasm
was evinced by all.

to get all members to attend a regular
meeting, and at the previous mcetiug,
as shown by the minutes, a member of
this lodge 'volunteered to invite each
and all sisters and brothers thereto be
longing, his device proving a success;
thus the large crowd. Not only tne
members of Concordia lodge attended,
but also a number from Bosshardt lodge
and others participated in the meeting.
After the regular order of business
had been attended to, there were four
candidates in waiting to be initiated,
being the two Misses Berg, Miss Haack
and Mrs. Champ. After these members
had been initiated, several addresses
were made by the members of the lodge
and the visiting sisters and brothers.
The main feature being decided upon
at this meeting was to give a festival
during the winter season in the form ot
a Dutch ball in which many characters
representing the settlers of Texas some
centuries ago will take part. The out
line of this festival was given by one
of the members of Concordia lodge and
it was unanimously voted that such a
festival be given, and every member
Couched to endeavor to make'this effort
B success. Immediately thereupon a com
mittee was appointed to make arrange
ments and find a suitable hall and ar
range all details.
The committee that was appointed to
nake preliminary arrangements is:
Messrs. D. A. Meyer, Herman Haack,
John Belohlarek and Andrew Mach,
