TRIBUTE IS PAID TO WORKERS Masons March to Scene and Have (lunge of Ihe 'Program Elo quent nnri Able Address ly Hon. Hinger Herniaim. The only work done on Uio Fed oral building today was when Hon. J. C. Fullerton. as Acting Grand Master for tho .Masonic Grand Lodge of Oregon, used the plumb, square i and level of Masonry and at the cere- mony held in the presence of several hundred citizens and school child ren this afternoon formally set the corner stone and dedicated the bnild inlt in accordance with the ritual of the order to the use or the Nation and the people of this city and the surrounding country. With clouds heavily laden with moisture obscuring the sun. a larger nowd than had been anticipated; during the earlier part of the day. ventured to brave threatening; weather and fairly blocked tlioj street until during the latter part of i the ceremony, a majority were forced . to seek shelter in the nearby stores.! Only at noon was it finally deter-1 mined to cany out the plans, one of j the heaviest rains of the season hav- lug fallen throughout the morning. At 2 o'clock the weather had; cleared, and preceded by a parade of the school pupils and the .Masons, which was led by the Uoseburg Juve nile Hand, the lodge officials and ot iice.ru of the city and Federal Gov ernment mounted the platform. An Improvised derrick supported the sandstone slab before which Mr. Ful lerlon. as the Master of Ceremonies, took bis position. Tho ritualistic ceremony, as observed in the placing of the stone, was brief and very im pressive and interesting. After tile stone had been placed, it was then sprinkled with the corn of nourishment, t lie wine or refresh ment and the oil of joy. each of which has emblematic significance, destined lo bring forth good in the future uses of the structure. The various emblematic substances were presented to the acting Grand Mas ter, through the other acting officials lor the Grand Lodge. These were It. 11. C. Wood, as acting Deputy Grand Master, Attorney Dexter Itice. as Act ing Senior Warden, and Benjamin F. Caro, as Acting Junior Warden. At the beginning of the ceremony Rev. It. K. .lope, as chaplain, offered a short prayer, folloyed by the sing ing of America" by the crowd, led by Prof. F. C. Fitzpatrick. The cere mony was concluded by an able and loquent address by Hon. Binger Hermann, which is printed else where in this paper. Had the weather been more favor able. It is probable the crowd would have numbered more than a thousand people. All present were well pleased, however, and considered the occasion a worthy tribute lo tho Gov ernment for making the building pos sible, and lo the local people through whose tireless efforts the structure was finally obtained. One of the features of the pro gram was the placing of a copper box In the brick wall behind the corner stone, until tho bulIRIng Is in ilm distant future torn down or re moved. In it were sealed copies of local naiiers, various documents and statistics pertaining to the city gov ernment, provided by the Masons, and a number of coins and cards of local citizens, 1 here were over n Masons In line as they marched to the building from their teninle. manv being irom oui or town. At the building site they marched between the rows or dents and formed a circle around tho scene of tffe ceremony. COKF VICK-I'RKSIDF.NT.
