Last Friday evening the local lodge
of Eastern Star was paid an official
visit by Worthy Grand Matron Mrs.
Stiles of Portland. The evening was
pleasantly spent and much good will
arise from the event. During her stay

entertained with several tables of
500" on Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Carrie C. Hubbard visited the
Rebekah lodge at Dallas on last
Wednesday night. The members of
the lodge had chosen sides in a con
test to see how many members could
be gotten out on the occasion of Mrs.
Hubbard's visit, . with the result that
about seventy Rebekahs were pres
ent. After the business of the even
ing was over a sumptuous banquet
was served. Mrs. Hubbard was pre
sented with a beautiful bouquet of
carnations 'and was in every way ac
corded royal entertainment of which
she expresses her appeciation. Miss

W. T. Hoffman and B. F. Baker,
who have a flour mill at Indepen
dence and a warehouse at Monmouth,
were in Lebanon yesterday looking
over the place with a view to estab
lishing a flour mill in this city. They
said they received very little, if any,
encouragement from the business men
they called on, so left on the evening
train for southern Oregon to look for
a suitable location in which to estab
lish another mill. Mr. Baker is a
brother-in-law of H. G. Everett. We
think that this is an enterprise that
is not only needed here but could be
operated at a profit, and should be
encouraged and welcomed by all our
citizens. Lebanon Express. 1
