TURNING GRAY i AND THREATENED WITH BALDNESS The Danger is Averted by Using AYEfi'S vcon "Nearly forty years ajjo, after ' some weeks of sickness, my hair turned gray and began falling out 80 rapidly that I was threatened with immediate baldness. Hearing Ayer's Hair Vigor highly spoken of, I commenced using this .prepara. tion, and was so well satisfied with the result that I have never tried any other kind of dressing. It stop ped tha hair from falling out, stimu lated a new growth f hair, and kept the scalp free from dandruff. Oi:ly an occasional application is r. w needed to keep my hair of gcod. natural color. I never hesitate to recommend any of Aver's medicines to my friends." Mrs. II.JI. I1a:gi:t, Avoca, Xeb. Ayer's Hasr VigGr PKEPAKKD FY DR. J. C. AYEB & CO., LOWELL, MASS.. U. S. A.

The K. of P. hall had been engaged as the place for holding the sessions of this meeting, and at that place at 2 p. m. yesterday, W. W. Breeden, grand chief templar, called the members of the grand lodge to order, and the meeting was opened in the regular ritualistic style, after which the committee on cre dentials reported fifty-two persons en titled to the grand lodge degiee. Part of them being without the district degree it was found necessarry to confer it upon them, and Past Chief Templar C, H. Merrill was appointed to confer the dis trict degree upon those entitled to it. He then reported those in waiting as ready and entitled to the grand lodge Begree and it was conferred upon the -delegates and all others entitled to it. "Those who know think the instruction in this degree very helpful and impres sive end under Grand Chief Templar W. W. Breeden it was made doubly so. After the new members bad been ad mitted, the grand lodge opened in the subordinate degree, at which time all members of the subordinate lodges are .admitted, while working in this degree. BEP0RT3. The grand chief templar's report rihowed that though the bard times bad hindered the work, yet there . was a hopeful outlook for the future, and bid the members take courage and press on ward, as there was a bright future before them. 5rand Secretary W. 8: Hurst's report showed, that with all the changes during the past year.'.there had.been an increase in membership, there now being fifty two lodges with an aggregate member ship of 2,104. More than $1,000 has been received and expended in carrying on this work. - The other reports were postponed till another time. Greetings were exchanged with the Women's Christian Temperance Union. Greetings were' ordered sent to the Woman's Suffrage convention, . now holding its first Oregon convention in Portland. . , EVENING. The evening exercises were in the form of a welcome to the visiting friends. It was a very pleasant affair and wag open to the general public. There was an opening chorus by the choir, after which Eev. W. C. Curtis lead in prayer. The greeting of Juvenile Temple was given Jby eight little girls, each display ing a letter as she repeated a - little verse of greeting, the eight letters, as displayed, when the verses had been re cited forming the word greeting. ' The address of welcome in behalf of the city, was giyen by Hon. John Michell and our state senator elect extended a very hearty welcome to our visitors, speaking many words of encouragement and interest. . . He was followed by Rev. John Wood, who extended a welcome from the subor dinate lodges of the city. In earnest, im-r passioned language he dwelt upon the importance of temperance work. He spoke of his membership of Harmon lodge, extending over a period of thirty years, and recalled ' to -memory , the thiilling temperance speeches of Father Harmon, whose name the subordinate lodge previously bore. Mr. Wood's a.d dress was forcible, touching .and elo quent, and he was listened to with rapt attention. The duet by Archie and Edna Barnett was appropriate and both possessing beautiful voices, was rendered with rare effect. Eev. Win. Hoskins, of Cascade Locks, responded to the addresses of welcome in well-chosen words. His zeal in the temperance cause is eecondary to none and his speech was effective, convincing and of unvarying interest throughout. Prof. C. W. Travis gave a character monologue, of a comic nature, and re sponded to an encore with Marc An tony's oration over the dead body of Julius Cseaar. The well-known dramatic oration - did not. suffer by Mr. Travis' rendition of it. . Nellie Forward, a very little girl, sang an affecting song ot childish sentiment in a sweet-toned voice, entitled "Papa, What Would You Take for Me?" She received merited applause, though too young erbaps to appreciate its meaning. Miss Martha Schooling gave an inter eBting and appropriate recitation, which she rendered very nicely. Miss Myrtle Michell then sang a solo, rendered in that young lady's best style, which was much appreciated. The presentation by Mrs. Mattie Bar nett, G. S. J. T., of the banner to Forest Grove Lodge, I. O. G. T., was an im portant feature of the evening. Forest Grove lodge had made the largest in crease of membership of any lodge in the state, growing from 32 to 126. The choir then sang the beautiful se lection "Rainbow' after which was sung the dexology, and benediction by Eev. W. C. Curtis. Wednesday's session.. nr l . - v eanesaay morning a session was presided over by Grand Chief Templar YV,w. Breeden. The grand and the district degrees were conferred on twelve more persons by P. G. C. T., C. H. New ell. The rest of the morning was spent in hearing reports of the officers not reporting yesterday and also the lodge deputies, which were all encouraging. The report of the Grand Supt. Juvenile Temples, Mrs. J. E. Barnett, shows a membership in the Juvenile Temples of the state of 813. State Lecturer Prof. Trip Etated that he had organized 24 lodeea in the state since entering it the 3d of last November. 'Daring the morn-' ing letters were read from K. W. G. C. T. Dr. Mann and Miss Forsuth, B. W. G. S. Juvenile Temples. The election of officers promises to be an exciting time, and is set for this afternoon, as soon as possible after com ing together. Grand lodge will open in the Subordi nate degree this evening, and all mem bers in good standing are invited to attend. Farewell Reception. One of the pleasanteBt days of the rose month brought together at the home of Mrs. Gibons a number of ladies with the Aid Society of the . Congregational church in a farewell to . Mrs. Eugene Price, who is about to leave for Mon tana. To the oldest of those nresent Mrs. Price had been known and loved from childhood, since the days when in short dresses, with her braids of hair hanging down her shoulders, she gave promise on the platform in song of what we have now as a rich fruition. The same voice, though developed, enriched by both time and study, charmed the ladies in pleasant songs yesterday, only saddened by the thought that Montana is so far away; 'that such reunions as took place then will not be frequent in days to come. Old friends and new friends all were one in the expression of cordial good wishes for the welfare and prosperity of Mrs. Price and her family in the new home to which they are going. The following ladies participated: Mesdames Price, McFarland, Moody, Morgan, McCoy, , Herbert,- Condon, Blakeley, Kelsay, Wilkerson, Pease, Thompson, Wilson, Brooks, Gibons, Ralph Gibons, Phirman, Gilbert, Gray, Gar ret son, Huntington, Patterson, Mar den, Curtis. .
