BRILLIANT BANQUET A Feast of Itcnson and n Flow of Soul Follows a Feast of Good Things for the Inner Man. The first joint installation of the several Masonic bodies ever held in Marsliflcld was brought off last even ing In the Masonic hall on 4th and C streets, before an attendance of Masons, Knights Templar, Royal Arch and Eastern Star members, numbering about two hundred. The ladies were given the first part of the evening. Mrs. Florence Bar gelt, Worthy Grand Matron of Ore gon, was the installing officer for the Doric Chapter, and Mrs. Charles Marsh marshalled the officers elect for the ceremonies. The ceremony of installing the officers of the Star occupied something over an hour and the work was carried out in most ex act and impressive style. Mrs. Bar- j gelt is a resident of Marshlield, and her exalted position in the state work of the Star is considered an honor to all the local branches of Masonry as well as to the Chapter. Her dispo sition of the ceremonies was consid ered the finest ever seen in the Masonic hall. Immediately upon completion of present a convenient view of the toastmaster and the head of thq tables. The banquet and toasts occu pied an hour and a half and in that time many compliments were ex changed between the Masons and the members of the Star. There was a general flow of wit and many of the toasts were encored. TJhe fact of there never having been a joint in stallation before was given duo prominence and the general trend was towards making the event an an ual occurrence. The program of toasts and respon ses, with C. F. McKnight as toast master at the installation was as fol lows: Masonry Its Relation to the East ern Star W. S. McFarland Response Mrs. C. H.
