yesterday. This -being- the ninth'- day
of , the ninth month the delegrates as
sembled the mystical hour of :09
this morning to listen to the annual re
. porfs and transact other business of a
. routine character. , r v. ;
The business of the forenoon was
hurried through' an 3 an early adjourn
rrent was taken to permit the delegrates
to take a trip to the town of Gordon,
where the order first' sprang into ex
istence In 1892. The visit was for the
purpose of dedicating a handsome
bronze memorial tablet to mark the
plafe whore the order was sHven birth.
. Th site was that of the old Hotel Hall,
In the parlor of which a small group
or lumbermen mtt in 1892 and took the
initial steps for the formation of the
organisation which has sine arown to a
tnembursHp of 2C.00O. extending- prac
tically all over the world.
The memorial tablet was designed bv

To the Children of Portland and Their Parents-An Apology
In Tuesday eveniner's papers we advertised "Free School Kits' on Children's day Wednesday but they didn't come in time to give away that day. We ltd
that-an apology and explanation is due the children of Portland for this seemingly gross error for we were depending on the express to bring them here from the'east,
and though we had a wire that they were on the way and would be here by Wednesday, the kits didn't come until today, Thursday; v '"""r
However, we'll dve these dandy little kits away Friday instead they're handy little school kits containing just what the children need for school two pencils for
paper and slate, a neat penholder, etc., inclosed in a neat box, all FREE on Friday. We'll give one absolutely FREE to every child that calls Friday with a parent
we are really sorry they didn't come in time to give Wednesday as advertised, but "mistakes will happen,"' and we will see : that every child who was in Wednesday "and
registered will get once. V ' ' " -
Every child who registered Wednesday is requested to call and obtain one of these kits FREE as well as those who were not able to come. Bring a parent and
come Friday. ' - , " '
